ETROIT, August 290 (®.— The British delegation here for the Harmsworth regatta appears confident that Marion Barbara (Betty) Carstairs will succeed in wresting from Gar Wood the trophy em- blematic of the world’s speed- boat championship. During the 10 years Wood has held the ',ro?hy hard luck has kept the challengers from finish- ing the race in every case. Wood admits' he has been lucky. A plece of driftwood is enough to wreck a hydroplane, and challengers have been wrecked by driftwood. But ‘Wood also has shown foresight in hav- ing more than one boat in the race, so that if one was disabled another could carry on. Miss Carstairs is bet- ter equipped than any challenger has beer.. She has two boats, designed sim- llarly to Wood's craft and with more powerful engines. Betty Is Confident. “Tt is regrettable” she said, “that we do not have Sir Henry S ive with us to aid in this race with Commodore Wood, but I have full confidence in the British team and confidently look for A ry Segrave was killed in an accident on Lake Windemere, in Eng- land, while preparing for the Harms- worth race. Miss Carstairs said: “We of the Brit- ish team are grateful for the compli- ment paid us by Mr. Wood in deeming it necessary to enter a third boat to compete with us.” Wood entered the Miss America V for the race in addi- tior to the Miss Americas VIII and IX, which were his firs. entrants. Returned Compliment. Wood's reply to Miss Carstairs.was: “We always have longed for competi- tion. Now it looks as though we are going to get it. The British boats are re]ll good ships, and may the best team win.” John Cameron, British consul at De- troit, spoke for the challengers. “We have Amy Johnson,” he said, “who re- cently won the airplane race to Aus- tralia; Betty Nuthall, an English girl, last week won the American tennis championship and now we have Betty Carstairs.” Pirst heat of the Harmsworth race will be run at 5 p.m. Saturday and the second at the same hour on Monday. If necessary, a third heat will be run on Tuesday. Each heat is for 30 nauti- cal miles over a 5-mile course. If the weather is falr, about 500,000 persons are expected to line the banks of the Detroit' River when the pistol is fired for the first heat. CORKRAN IS GOLF WINNER.

STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE BY WALTER R. McCALLUM and Secretary Willlam C. Barr of the District Golf Associa- tion will meet tonight at the Washington Golf and Country Club to make the pairings for the District junior championship, first of the two big title events to be settled by Capital golfers next week. Entries for the District junior event, which close tonight at 6 o'clock, will total about 30, according to estimates made by Dr. Barr, and will find all the leading junior players of the Capital prepared for the 36-hole medal play event, which will decide the champion- ship over the rugged Washington course next Tuesday. Roger Peacock, who won the title last year as & member of Indian Bpring, will defend his championship, playing as a member of the Argyle Country Club. J. Monro Hunter, jr., one of the most improved youngsters about Wash- ington, has Indicated he will play, having changed his mind. He intended originally not to play in the junior, but to_concentrate his efforts on the senior event, to follow at Burning Tree two days after the junior, but now he thinks he will make & bid for both titles. ‘Tommy Bones, ir., the star southpaw youngster of Columbia and Congres- sional served notice yesterday that he will be & potent factor in the junior and senior champlonships next week by winning . the junior championship of the Congressional Country Club inda common canter. ‘Tommy was hardly pressed to win the title, for he shot a 72 in the morning round of the 7. hole event, 1 below par, and with a 7- stroke lead to work on, he breezed home in 79 over the last round to win the title with strokes to spare. Bone's 36- hole total of 151 was 5 strokes in front of the 156 total of James G. Drain, who won the event last year, Drain registered 79 for the first round and 77 for the final round. . John L. Tierney finish third with 79—80—150. Bones played the outgoing nine of the first round in 36 strokes, 2 under r, thereby setting too hot a pace for E'.'. competitors. ~ Although he drove out of bounds at the fourteenth and took three putts on the thirteenth, FEones was back in 36 for his 72. He was on the twelfth green with a drive and an iron, getting & bird 4 on this 512-yard hole. Senior golfers of the Chevy Chase Club are to hold a competition, among themselves on Labor day. The event will be a handicap match play against par affair, with golf balls as prizes. Ben 8. Minor, who won the Walter Ch. Peter Cup, has presented to the senior golfers this year a C“chm be known as the “Minor” Cup, which will be played for during September. The cup will go to the senior making the two lowest net scores during the month, and the association adds as a runner-up prize a dozen golf balls. As a result of scores made in recent PRESB)!NT BRUCE L. TAYLOR tches the handicaps of six seniors b been changed, as follows: Col. Edward Clifford, from 10 to 7; Admiral AL R. Stanfozg, from 11 to ‘Talcott, from scratch to 4; Dr. G. Brown Miller, from 8 to 10; Gen. R. H. Allen, from scratch to 4. The changes will be effective in the competition for the Minor Cup and in the Labor day event. The seniors are to hold a putting con- test running through next week. Mel Shorey, East Potomac Park pro- fessional, was in a favorable spot to- day as the Virginia State open cham- plonship at Richmond swung into the final, with two 18-hole medal alfly rounds scheduled to decide the title. Shorey shot scores of 77-72 yester- day to finish a stroke behind the leader over the first 36 holes and in a good position to take the lead if he main- tains the same hot pace. Harry F. Thompson, Richmond ama- teur, who plays on the public links at Westwood, where the championship is being staged, led the field over the first two rounds with cards of 73-75—148. , Shorey tied at 149 with Roland Han- cock, the defending title holder, and Nelson Long of Roanoke. Dave Thomson, the Washington club professional, scored 84 for the opening round of the tournament, and then picked up on the second round of play. Erwin P. Halr, an amateur from the Washington club, registered 84-78 for the first two rounds. ‘The application of Harry G. Pitt, star Manor Club amateur, to play in the national amateur champi p. has been denied by the United States Golf Association. Pitt today received laconic announcement by the U. 8. G.
