PORTS., THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SEPTEMBER 8, 1935—PART ONE. SPORTS. B—11 Aquatic Carnival to Attract 200,000 : Victories Over Yankee Inspire Sopwith THRILLS IN RACES "’ She’s Svelte, Smiling, Sweet-Singing Swimmer BY 225" SPEEDERS Best Craft of Type Will Compete in President’s Cup Regatta. BY BURTON S. HAWKINS. HAT the President’s Cup Regatta I to be held on the Potomac from September 26-29 inclu- sive, will be the outstanding water carnival of the year, is the pre- diction of John A. Remon, president of the Regatta Association. “Prom all indications,” he said, *more than 200,000 water sports fans | will witness the events during the meet. While the heats for the famed | President’s Cup always are spectscu-‘ lar, the 225-cubic inch class com- | petition will provide thrills enough for the most rabid fans.” | The lanky, likable head of the Capital's leading aquatic venture, stated that Andy Crawford, Doc Bag- ley and S. Mortimer Auerbach, who have been fighting for the supremacy of this type of craft, probably will have to push the winning boat to more than 60 miles an hour to take | the crown. | ARNO APEL, driving Auerbach’s Emancipator IV, set a new com- petitive record of 56.426 miles per hour for the .25 speedsters recently at Red Bank, N. J., smashing the former record held by Crawford of ‘Washington, at 46.779 miles per hour. { Practically all of this type of craft| {s equipped with Lycoming’s new 155- i horsepower racing model engine. | While these men will be battling for | honors in that division, another stiff | argument is expected to be presented by Melvin Crook and John Bramble in the American speedboat cham-| pionship, the concluding event of the carnival. Aquatic addicts probably will leave the banks of the Potomac | praising Crook's Botty V, last yeas's ‘winner, standout contender. AMMY CROOKS is the latest of the | top-notch outboard drivers to try his luck at inboard events. Lured by the unique silver trophy, presented by the Mexican government to the Presi- | dent's Cup Regatta Association. Crooks has purchased a new boat to be entered in the class E inboards. With a view to ending the supremacy of George Reis and the aging E! Le- garto, Horace W. Dodge, owner of the Dodge fleet and one of the out- standing drivers of the country, who now is in Europe, has cabled his agent to have Hornet ready for the local meet. This is the craft which gave spectators along Hains Point such a thrill last year. After leading the field in a heat at the beginning of the last lsp, it threw its engine cover and both driver and mechanic were pain- | tully injured. Dodge is expecting to drive the Hornet this year. Another fight which will be de- | cided in local waters will be the out- board races, in which Fred Jacoby, jr., leading professional pilot in 1934, and Joel Thorne, amateur and national high-point scoring champion last year, will battle it out with scores of other | entrants, In addition to the Gananoque Canoe Club and the Balmy Beach Club, both of Canada, word has been received by J. W. Burch, chairman of the Aquatic Sports Committee, that the Parkdale Canoe Club of Toronto will send a five-man team to compete in every paddling event. LUCIER FIRST HOME IN TIMBER GLASSIC.

This means it will be 10 days or two weeks before anglers can hope to land any of these bronze gamesters. The Potomac below Washington is in the same condition, both Piscata- places to seek large-mouth bass, being very muddy. The many creeks flowing into the Potomac and Patuxent Rivers caused them to become badly discolored last Friday, but Capt. Harry Woodburn at Solomons Island told us Saturday morning that the Patuxent River was clear, the tide carrying off the dis- colored water, and that fishing con-, ditions were perfect. He said shat Friday blue fish were breaking in large numbers between Drum Point and Cove Point, many of them being caught still fishing, and that sea trout have not been driven away by fairly large quantities. hardhead. Although last week was a poor one Ditto for were reported, one off the mouth of the Patuxent River the first of the week, when 38 blues and 58 sea trout still fishing, and the other a catch of 72 blues on Southwest Middles, ranging from 3! to 9 pounds. Even last Wednesday a local angler braved rough seas on Southwest | Middles and before being driven back | | by strong northeast winds landed eight big blues. The storm apparently has not af- fected fishing in salt water. After a blow fish are very hungry and many good catches are anticipated this week. HE big event in fishing at Ocean City, Md., last week was the land- ing of a 500-pound sha¥fk, measuring 9'; feet with a fin spread of 3 feet |and 10 inches. This monster was hooked by John Sacco of Ocean City, and after blistering his hands he hooked the rope around the railing of the pier and sent out a hurried call for help. W. S. Brightman of Balti: more came on the run with his rifle and shot the shark seven times. Big sharks have been playing around the pier for some time feeding on kingfish. Several were hooked, but ; | straightened out the hooks and went 1:24, | their merry way. Sacco had a large| - | iron hook, which resembled an anchor, made to land one of these big fish. He used a rope about the size of your little finger and baited it with two bunkers. One of the sharks took the bait and started to sea, and if Sacco had not wrapped the rope around the railing of the pier it would have been another case of the big one getting away. Ten people helped to pull the shark in, and many others gathered to witness the feat. These sharks are harmless, feeding on fish, and will not attack a human being. James D. Jarman at this resort re- ports dolphin are numerous, many pounds, and that bay fishing is good. Channel bass, he said, also are being landed at Fox Hill Levels.

Their numbers were given to us by John G. Brown, secretary to the presi- dent of Georgetown University, as fol- lows: S-7146, Brown wrote a letter to the Governor of Maryland complaining of these men, saying in part: “Believing the interests of the State are involved we are anxious to swear out warrants or take whatever other action would be proper to assist in stopping this wholesale catching of game fish. We counted more than fifty small craft engaged in rod and reel fishing and believe that the con- clusion 1s more than justified that the blue fish industry, as far as Maryland is con , is more valuable to the State from the sporting standpoint | than from the commercial. We be- lieve that more men are employed and more families supported by the in- come derived from sportsmen than | from that which could be derived by selling the fish in large quantities on the open market. A very important point is that blue fish are being rapidly exterminated by commercial fishermen who use motorboats to encircle whole schools with their nets at one time.” | HOWARD W. BRENT, local angler, writes interestingly of his recent trip to the mouth of the Rappahan- nock River in quest of the black bonito or cabio. He said he fished several times off Windmill Light and each time landed a bonito or two and several were lost due to the breaking of the lines on account of what he calls inexperience of the fishermen in dealing with this kind of fish. “Of course, making a nice catch of blues is fun enough, but the supreme thrill is when a bonito strikes. These fish are becoming more plentiful each year around Windmill Light, after having been entirely missing from the bay for 10 years until three years ago,” the writer said. “When one strikes the attention of the fisherman is nuded for the next 25 or 30 min- utes, and it's a game of give and take for that period before the fish finally is brought close enough to be | gaffed and landed aboard.” The road to Point Lookout at Great Mills has been washed out by the re- cent heavy rains. This section of the road is between Leonardtown and Great Mills. Anglers can use the Three Notch road, located about 2’2 miles below Mechanicsville. You can't | miss this road, because there is a house right between the two roads, Which recently was entered by & mis- directed motor car with the result that the whole front of the house was demolished. This road takes you| through Hollywood and brings you out just below Great Mills. ——— SCORES ON AQUAPLANE Burrud’s West Coast Win Draws Protest, However.

IDWAY down the back streich, Time Supply started to move on the outside of New Deal, which had the rail after an early joust with Sea Fox, also a Carreaud entry. As Time Supply forged slowly ahead of the Araho Stable gelding, Palma moved up, too, and near the three- | eighths pole New Deal was back in third. But then Tommy Luther, who rode Time Supply to victory in last vear's Narragansett Special, called on h® mount for more speed and Time Supply opened up daylight for the first time between himself and Palma.

Any thought the American defend- Ing committee might have enter- tained that it had seen the last of Sopwith apparently was premature. True, he as much as charged in a series of red-hot banquet speeches last Winter that he had received the “works” in the lamented series against Skipper Vanderbilt. There could be no doubt he was good and sore. But time, combined with an unquenchable ambition to be the world's greatest vachtsman, appears to have worked wonders, ~T. Has Changed Viewpoint, Hl 1S acknowledged now to be a much better skipper than he was & year ago, and he intends to keep getting better. He has all the money he needs to keep on building more and better Endeavours. He bids fair to become as persistent a challenger as was the beloved Tommy Lipton, and a far more dangerous one. Present plans are for Endeavour II to be completed in time for next sea- son’s program of British regattas. That will give Sopwith plenty of oppor- tunity to find out what she will do and to get used to handling the new boat. If she comes up to expectations, Sopwith will be loaded for bear and Vanderbilts in 1937. He realizes now, his friends say, that he probably wasn't the smartest skipper in the world when he made his first effort to lift the coveted cup He concedes that the whole under- taking was somewhat amateurish, or “sporting,” as his colleagues would say. He didn't quite understand what & deadly serious matter an America’s Cup series could be. But he knows all about it now.

Steering his original Endeavour, he finished ahead of the speedy American visitor 13 out of the first 21 times they met As Yankee is considered by many critics to be fully as fast as Rainbow, the boat that licked Endeavour last year, Sopwith naturally has drawn some conclusions. If he has improved that much at the wheel, and can build himself another Endeavour just a little bit faster—why, it should be & cinch the next time. It has just been revealed, inciden- tally, that Sopwith was a sick man in the last series, suffering particularly from insomnia. He's never said a word about it. TIED NINES TO PLAY G. P. 0.
