16-Year- SCORES IN DEBUT AS A SPEED PILOT Maryland Codd Thrills at| Severn Races—Three Men Lead in Events. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. ERALD HARBOR, Md., July | 25.—Two nationally known | Northern speed boat driv-| ers, a comely, 16-year-old | Towson, Md. girl, driving in her first race, and a Baltimore youth this afternoon thrilled a crowd of water sport lovers as they flashed to victories in the opening day races of the Tri-City regatta | here. William Roche, Baltimore youngster, | shaed honors with the noted Bill Feld- | husen, winner of the big Staten Island | race, and Charles Cabbot, New Haven | Conn., speedster, by winning two heats while Miss Maryland Codd won a sen- | sational victory in the final of the| Class A outboard race, nosing out two | experienced Baltimore men pilots. Despite the presence of many of the foremost speedboat drivers along the Atlantic Coast, it was Miss Codd who ‘won the glory. Girl Displays Skill. In the opening race of the regatta, Miss Codd, off to a poor sta:t, due to | lack of experience, displayed an unusual | brand of driving as she overhauled her | rivals, Elmer Stagmer and Paul Holtz- man, and then went on to nose ouf Stagmer by less than half a boat length. | 1t remained for Charles Cabbot. though, to furnish the best speed of the | day. While many focused their atten- tion on Feldhusen, whose brilliant vic- | tory in the Staten Island race a few | weeks ago brought him national honors | and made him something of a favorite | in today's races, Cabbot, driving a| stubby, pointless craft in the free-for- | all heats, averaged close to 40 miles | an hour for the 5-mile stretch to nose out the New Yorker. His twin vic- tory in the free-for-all heats gave him s commanding lead in the 4-heat event, which will wind up tomorrow. Bui while Feldhusen was beaten by Cabbot in the free-for-alls (he lost the second by only 2-5 of a second), the New Yorker came back in the twc Class B outboard heats to triumph, and. like Cabbot, in the free-for-alls, take @ strangle hold on those events, which also will wind up tomorrow william Roche salvaged for Balti- | more a fat slice of glory when he tloted his Class C outboard to win in th heats, scoring, like the other twin- i yinners, 800 polnts. First place counts | 100. i Roche was hard pressed both_times by a Washingtonian, William Baden ‘who made a surprisingly good showing tn his homemade craft. Cabbot’s Boat Fast. Charles Cabbot's time in winning the | free-for-all was one of the fastest ever | made on nearby waters. He negotiated the four laps, approximating five miles, #n 7 minutes, 42 2,5 seconds in the second heat of the free-for-all. The | New Haven pilot, however, needed every fota of speed he could muster from his queer-looking “Felix,” for Feldhusen, the Staten Islander, finished only two- fifths of a second behind him. Baltimore stood head and shoulders above its Tri-City rivals, Washington | and Annapolis, when its racers took 12 laces out of the total of 33. Of the 1 short races, Baltimore speedsters | took four firsts, four seconds and four thirds, | The Maryland Yacht Club cruiser | race, which started from Baltimore, was | won by Arthur Anderson's Anna Mae Dot in one hour and seven minutes. In another outstanding race, for runabouts, Russell Kelsey of Edge- ‘water, Md., left his rivals in his craft's spray. | The regatta, second only to the President’s Cup Regatta in importance, will wind up tomorrow. The first event | will start at 10 o'clock and the program | will continue until dusk. The remain- ing two heats of the feature races will be run off and water folk are looking to even better time than was made this afternoon. ‘Summaries: CLASS A OQUTBOARDS.

Buddy overslid the sack, to be snared by Melillo's fine heave to Kress. Only a spectacular stop by Third Baseman Storti kept a kit from Cronin in the fourth. The ball went down the left-field line at a sizzling pace, but Storti was on the job. Cronin hustled back into short left for a fancy grab of Schulte’s high one in the fifth.
