Beforehand they said Shamrock was | superior before the wind, but it was not | manifest in competition and the best the challenger can hope for now is that | 8 change in racing conditions may | change her luck. Series to Continue Daily. The second race, over a triangular | eourse of 30 miles, i scheduled for Monday and the series will be continued daily, barring accidents or other causes of postponement, until one yacht wins | four contests. Out of a delayed, foggy and dismal | start, featured more by the hazardous maneuvers of sight-seeing boats than | by any competitive thrills, today’s race, | by the time Enterprise led the way to, the half way mark, developed into per- | haps the greatest pleasure-going marine | spectacle ever witnessed on either side of the Atlantic. It was nearly noon, over an hour late, before the racers| and their escorting armada got under way from the marker 9 miles southeast of Brenton Reef Lightship, just outside Narragan. Bay. Barely Visible Quarter Mile Away. For fully 12 of the 15 miles repre- | eenting _the southward run with the | breeze, fitful to freshening most of the way, it was so foggy the racing yachts were almost obscured a quarter mile off. | Dimly outlined on either side of the | course, patrolled by a record fleet of | Coast Guard destroyers and cutters, were hundreds of craft of every descrip- tion from racing sea sleds to heavy- 1aden excursion steamers of ocean-going proportions, from modest sailboats to such stately craft as J. P. Morgan's magnificent black Corsair and Sir Thomas Lipton’s steam yacht Erin. ‘Two major collisions and at least & half dozen close calls from serious acci- dents marked the preliminary maneu- vering for positions, diverting attention from the race for the time being. ‘The Coast Guard Destroyer Wilkes, sharing the press detail with its sister ship The Porter, collided with the big excursion steamer, City of Lowell a few minutes after the start of the race. ! causing excitement among some 800 | passengers aboard the latter vessel, ‘which bore a big streamer labeled “Ro- tary Club of Providence.” Damage Negligible. The City*of Lowell, it seemed, was | determined to cut across the course in some defiance of patrol lines. Both | boats were proceeding slowly when the steamer hit the destroyer at right angles, on the starboard side. When they backed off, the Wilkes showed slight dents in two side plates, with a big smudge of paint to mark the point of impact, while the City of Lowell's bow was slightly knocked in. The damage was insufficient to keep either boat from steaming on out to sea. Soon, however, the immense fleet straightened out and settled down amicably, with only occasional warn- ings from the omnipresent Coast Guard ships, for the run through the mists that were fast enshrouding the | rival racers. i Fnterprise, with mainsail, spinnaker end balloon jib catching all the fitful | g2sts of breeze they could pick up, | seemed to draw slowly but steadily away from the green-bodied challenger. The wind was no more than five or six knots at the outset. It freshened and shifted as the yachts got out more into the open sea of Blogk Island Sound and the monotony of the run was broken by a brisk readjustment of sails, ini- tiated by Enterprise. Glide Like Sea.Gulls. Like huge sea gulls, with their wings full-spread, both boats were gliding through the mists when Enterprise, first THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

I, September 13 Sir Thomas Lipton, prince of sports men, sailed out this morning with a smile and joke on his lips to see his Shamrock V, pride of his declining years, spread. her salls against the Enterprise in the first brush for the America's Cup. Pive hours later he sailed back again, a tired, disappoint- ed old man, but still smiling. From an easy chair by the side of the skipper of his big steam yacht Erin the 81- year-old Irishman, who realizes he is the end of his unsficcessfu 1 quest of the “old mug” sadly watched the green Shamrock V trail the trim white defender over 30 miles = steadily roughening water. He ¥ ver gave up hope until the booming of horns and the scream of sirens heralded the victory of the En- terprise and the defeat once more of the Shamrock line that has never known a cup victory. Then he sat down wearily to talk it over. “Something went wrong with the sailing motor,” he said. “We'll have to put another in over the week end and try again. If I wasn't disappointed I'd belong in & home for the mentally weak, but if I didn't think that my boat still could win I'd ship the whole kit and kaboodle home tonight. And I'm not going to do that. “The weather did not beat us. have a very fine boat, especially for that kind of weather, the same weather.” Bir Thomas. chin and the twirls of his mustache bobbed up and down. very optimistic of getting first made during the next court year in " he announced solemnly, “if the clearing the crimiinal docket. 124 t boat is to be declared the winnes e e e MINISTER SUCCUMBS TO AUTO INJURIES pr last perhaps to perceive the changing con- ditions of the wind and weather, switched her spinnaker from starboard to port—the maneuver that seamen know as jibbing. In the process of sail readjustment, Enterprise’s balloon jib for & few moments seemed tangled in the stays. Quickly it straightened out, however, and the defender shot forward Shamrock followed suit and both straightened out after being in appar- ent doubt at first as to the exact loca- tion of the tug near the outer mark, due to the fog. There was fast work on the sails for the next few miles as both yachts trim- med for the turn. Spinnakers were hauled in, staysails, jibs and jib top- sails were set and close-hauled. ‘The sun broke through and blue skies were overhead for the first time, un- folding, as if by magic, the full brilliance of the far-flung marine spectacle. ‘Truly, it was a dazzling sea of ships on & shimmering ocean, with the full sail- spread of the racing yachts in bold re- Mef against a sparkling background for the first time. For miles the fleet of yachts, luxurious cruisers, steamers and swarms of small craft, blanked by the ‘warlike patrol of destroyers, stretched into the horizon blue. Nearing the outer mark, Shamrock seemed again to close part of the gap as she had done earlier, but the trim ‘white hull of Enterprise slid around the SPECIAL NOTICES.

By the Associated Press NEWPORT, R. 1., September 13.—The steam yacht Erin, owned by Sir Thomas | Lipton and carrying the owner of the | Shamrock down the course of the race | with the Enterprise today, was in colli- | sion with the motor yacht Gay Jane of | Boston, owned by Louls Weasy. The boats came together broadside and | little damage was done. | Both Erin and Gay Jane were run- ning together along a course parallel to that of the racing yachts when the Bos- ton boat, a few lengths ahead of the | Erin, veered too close to the Irish sports- | man’s yacht. The boats came together, the Gay Jane scraping the length of the | Erin, crumpling the port gangway and damaged a tender slung near the stern The Gay Jane had part of her starboard rail torn away and was scraped con- | siderably. Although no one was injured, the Gay Jane, caught in the wash from ing_for several moments, and in the swells was almost caught under the Erin’s stern. Neither ship hailed the other after the collision, and both con- tinued down the course. | In another collision during the race, | the excursion boat City of Lowell of the | Providence Line, carrying about 800 | members of the Rotary Club of Provi-| dence and other passengers, hit the | Coast Guard boat Wilkes, in command | of Comdr. Fletcher- Brown. The bow of | the City of Lowell pushed into the Wilkes slightly abaft of midships, in a line with the engine room, denting several plates. The bow of the City of Lowell was damaged slightly. The Wilkes sprang a leak in her oll tanks below decks, but continued on the course. There were no injuries.
