s Favored Spot on Program Booms President’s Cup Sailing Events PORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, -D. C, APRIL 11, 1937— I_ARGE_RWVA[“NE TBoy Powerboat Pilot Laughs FLEET EXPECTED Out-of-Town Skippers to Take Part. BY BILL DISMER, Jr. ASHINGTON'S sail boat owners are in a happy mood these days, and it's not merely because they run up their canvases in a competitive atmosphere for the first time this month. Rather it is because, before a single boat has gone overboard, members of the Potomac River Sailing Association have persuaded the President's Cup Regatta Association into agreeing to an objective which has been the sailors’ since first they were granted ®&n integral part of the annual re- gatta here. When the Executive Committee of the association decided to allow the sailors to stage the sailing events of the President’s Cup Regatta the week end before the powerboat races they not only gave skippers of wind-driven craft their own distinct spot on the program, but also paved the way toward the biggest and best field ever | to compete in that group. Scope Is Broadened. HITHERTO compelled to race the Thursday and Friday of the re- gatta week end, local sailing author- ities have been unable to attract an out-of-town entry in keeping with the national caliber of the regatta. Sailors, it seems, depend on week ends as do most working men, and days before Baturday were not made for traveling on the part of the majority. 10-YEAR-OLD boy driving & 10-foot outboard motor boat at 30 miles per hour is the latest—and youngest—wrinkle in Washington’s, and perhaps the Na- tion’s, diversified water activity. Minors are prohibited from driving an automobile in the District until 16 years old; 30 miles an hour is the speed 1Mmit in even outlying sections, but Grover Bache Gill, jr., defied them both out in the Potomac the first time he took out his midget outboard boat a week ago today. A Seasoned Tar at 10. Now, through persistence of the Potomac River Sailing Association, all the sail events are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, September 18 and 19. A prediction that twice as many sail boats as competed last year | will be in this Fall's classic is the | first reaction of the city’s leaders of | that group. Approximately 100 raced last season. New Classes Added. | SON of a nautically-inclined father who is a director of the Presi- | dent’s Cup Regatta and an old mem- ber of the Corinthian Yacht Club, young Gill has been a “regular” on his dad's 35-foot Onda for the last three vears. During that time, he has learned more about boats and navi- gation in general than the average landlubber three times his age. ‘The lad probably had designs on driving a boat long before, but it was not until one of his father’s patients At Land Speed Restrictions your dad will get you the boat, I'll buy you the motor for it.” Little attention was paid to the remark at the time, but as Dr. Gill tells it, “When the motor came a week later, there was nothing for me to do but get the boat.” Mother Not So Favorable. not so favorably inclined at the first mention her youthful offspring was to take the waves as a driver, and, indeed, other fond parents might have been similarly alarmed at such a step. But, as those who use the water will point out, there is less danger out there than on most Washington streets and if one can swim, what of the age? Especially when he i3 inclined and able. ‘What competition, if any, young Gill will get around here remains to be seen, as he is thought to be the youngest driver in the vicinity. But around 1945 he should be ready to burst his daddy’s chest when he has the accelerator all the way down in |one of the President's Cup Regatta UT another and just as important | innocently said to him one day, “If |races. BARKS 4o a development is the fact that 12 | classes of boats will have races, in- stead of the 8 which raced last year. In a way, that's hard on The Eve- ning Star, which awards the prizes in the sailing contests, but this news- paper is glad to shell out in propor- tion to the increase in its sponsored events, New classes promised this year will be the big star class boats, open canoes, decked canoes and the na- | tional class boats. The latter are a distinctly new type, originated and | supported by Rudder, a national #ailing magazine. Moths, dinghys, snipes, comets, 20-foot opens and handicap A and B boats will be back | again, with two classes of dinghys | competing. | Coming as they do immedistely’ after the national championships for all classes, these races will bring out- | standing skippers of the country here | for one last fling at their favorite | sport before their season ends. | In return for the concession, local sailors gladly acceded to the com- | mittee’s request to turn out in full | force the following week end for the | powerboat events, thereby providing a | colorful background for the steady roar of high-power speedboats. Committee Is Comprehensive. THE set-up of nautical officials who will handle the President’s Cup Regatta is just about complete. Gen- eral Chairman James A. Councilor, seeking to include every walk of busi- ness and civic life in the enterprise, has -lawyers, accountants, bankers, merchants, salesmen, Government offi- cials and just plain wage-earners on his committees, and if all of Wash- ington doesn't know what’s coming off in the latter days of September it won’t be for lack of publicity. Councilor's Executive Committee is composed of John A. Remon, R. A. Bogley, L. Gordon Leech, Thomas E. Lodge, R. Lyman Sexton, William C. Shelton, Harry P. Somerville, L. P. Steuart and Jack W. Marsh; Sexton, incidentally, being the assistant gen- eral chairman. Y The Board of Directors consists of Edward C. Baltz, G. Bache Gill, H. G. Hamlet, Thomas T. Keane and Remon, Sexton, Somerville, Leech, Shelton, Lodge and Councilor. Of the association itself, Remon is presi- dent; Sexton, vice president; Somer- ville, executive secretary; Robert V. Fleming, treasurer; Councilor, con- troller; I. J. Roberts, assistant treas- urer, and Mrs. E. H. Nick, assistant oontroller. Other committees are headed by the following: Public information, ‘William W. Wheeler; public order, Maj. E. W. Brown; racing, Leech and Harry E. Smith; general arrange- ments, Lodge; civic division, L. P Bteuart; aquatic sports, Bogley; en- tertainment, Shelton; banquet, W. J. McManus; talent, A. R. Kelley; Wil- lard reception, A. J. Morris, and per- sonnel, Albert Waters. . NEW GOLD CUP SCORING Bonus Points to Go With Fastest Heat, Best Elapsed Time. NEW YORK, April 10 (#).—A new point-scoring system for the gold cup race, blue-ribbon event of American aspeed boat racing, will be put into effect in this year’s regatta at Detroit on Labor day Charles F. Chapman, secretary of the Gold Cup Contest Board, announced today. In addition to the regular scoring of 400 points for first place, 300 for second and 225 for third in each heat the boat making the fastest time for one 30-mile heat and the boat having the fastest elapsed time for the 90 miles each will get a 400-point bonus. —_—— ‘TABLE NET CHAMPS VIE Twenty-Six in Line for Junior and Peewee Tournament. Table tennis champions of the va- rious boys’ clubs and other crack junior paddlers will meet in the Y. M. C. A’s Junior and peewee tournaments Thurs- day and Friday in the Boys’' “Y.” So far, 26 have signed up for the Junior competition, but more are ex- pacted before entries close tomorrow. The entry fee is 25 cents per con- testant. » A R OTHER GILL, it is learned, was | AMILIAR faces have gained and retained the leadership of two of the city’s oldest yacht and boating clubs recently. Dick Doyle, member of Capital Yacht Club since 1914, is the new commodore of that organization, and in that capacity will greet members and guests at the club’s formal open= ing and reception for the season this afternoon. Open house is scheduled from 5:30 until 7:30 o'clock. Capital was founded on October 19, 1892. On that date, and for many years after, only sail boats were owned by the club’s members, It was not until after the war that power boats came to exceed the wind-blown craft in number, but a rapid develoment in both classes the past few years has seen a large number of power and sall boats in Capital's fleet. Doyle owns the 46-footer Margretan and won the undying favor of mem= bers of the Potomac River Sailing As- sociation last year when he used to tow the sallors down to Hains Point for their weekly races. Franklin Schneider, who owns the Privateer, is the club’s new vice com- modore and Dan Fowler, skipper of the Gadabout is the secretary-treasurer. JP AT Potomac Boat Club Presi- dent George Hernan and three officers have been unanimously re- elected, after one of the club’s most successful seasons in history last year. | One of the largest attendances in years attended the sixty-eighth annual meeting at which time Charles Eisen- stein was re-elected vice president, James Burch, treasurer, and Gerald i Lawley, secretary. Dave Knox, former Columbia Uni- vesity oarsman, has béen named float captain, with Rudy Kauffmann, erst- while Princeton crew member, first lieutenant. George Shorb, the noted marathoner, is second lieutenant. Bob Duncan, who headed the floats com- mittee, announced that the job of re- setting the floats and runways was completed two weeks ago. A meeting will be held this after- noon for the purpose of making final arrangements for the big stag party !next Priday night. DOGDOM BY R. R. TAYNTON. EMARKABLE are the powers be measured. Ask any kennel owner who inserts his little three-line ad in the Sunday Whatzit and - sits back waiting for results. Take, for instance, the following mythical ex- ample. A fairly well-known kennel within a few miles from town adver- tises “show collies and Shetland sheep dogs (miniature collies) for sale and at stud.” The long-awaited, sunny Sunday ar- | rives and Mr. Kennel Owner puts on | his best bib and tucker, or the mas- culine equivalent, gives the dog yards an extra rake, and the dogs an extra brushing, and sits back for business. Bright and early in the morning the telephone rings and a deep bass voice inquires, “Are these the Blank Ken- nels?” K. O. assures him they are. “Do you have any Sealyham terriers?” K. O. answers they are just out of Sealyhams, but have some nice, fresh of the press. The influence | of the printed word is not to | E The couple nod condescendingly and ask to see the rest of the collies. As they are brought in husband and wife | exchange meaningful looks and whis- | pered remarks. When the whole ken- nel is reviewed, the man states: “We | have a tricolored collie that is much | Some people dropped him in front of | our house three years ago, so we don't | know his pedigree, but he is thor- oughbred. Of course (condescend- | ingly) yours are pretty dogs, but Rover is much prettier! His head is much broader, his nose isn't so sharp and his ears stand right up. He is a much prettier dog. We thought maybe we'd let you breed him for half the pup- pies.” K. O. assures him that he appre- clates the kindness, but isn’t having any. In the meantime the kennel yards seem suddenly to. have sprouted myriads of visitors, and from then until merciful darkness all is confu- sion. Maybe in the course of the Milk-punch-drunk. The family of Wirehaven AEstrelita, a cocker spaniel owned by the Wirehaven Kennels of Silver Spring. collie pups. The deep bass voice sounds annoyed at being offered a substitute, while K. O. wonders why the ding ding he is being asked for a Sealyham when he advertises collies | and shelties. Sales Are Haphazard. 'UST as the family is getting ready to sit down to midday dinner, the first possible customer arrives, a party consisting of mamma, papa, brother, sister and the baby. Question No. 1, before anybody disembarks, “Will they bite?” Being assured they won't bite, mamma asks to see the Shetland sheep dogs. Proudly the choicest sheltie on the place is called forth, a near- champion. One indifferent look and mamma says: “That’s no sheep dog. That's just a little collie. It doesn’t have any hair over its eyes.” K. O. points out that his advertisement ex- plained that Shetland sheep dogs were miniature collies, and that mamma probably was thinking of Old English sheep dogs, which have hair over the eyes. But mamma goes off in a huff, muttering that sheep dogs have hair over the eyes. In the meantime brother, sister and the baby have been having a lovely time in the puppy pen, squeezing and mauling all the littlest pups and driv- ing the poor little mother dog nearly into hysterics. When K. O. shoos the children out of the pen, papa is heard to mutter that he doesn’t want a pup the kids can’t play with. Later in the day a ocouple drive in and ask to see a tri- color male collie. Fortunately there is one available. He is of unexcelled pedigree, a beautiful and intelligent dog. EQUI-POISE PROPELLERS Best Over the Measured Mile!

Registrations Fall Off. T WOULD seem that the turn in registration increases has come. The total in February, 1937, was 6,325, compared to 7,050 for the same month in 1936, and of the 12 leading breeds only three showed an increase. Cocker spaniels still maintain the impetus they gathered in the last months of 1936; greyhounds still show a very large increase, as racing greyhound owners continue to transfer their reg- istrations to the American Kennel Club stud book. The third breed to show an imcrease is the rman pinscher. Probably some of that may be ascribed to the remarkable show record of Jockel Brugund, s Dobe that has gone best in show & number of times recently. It would not be surprising, however, to see not only regis- trations but the number of shows drop off. The number of shows scheduled has grown to the point where it is em- GOING_ FISHING ? ~ You With LURE & Kool that \AND Eme AND AT A BAVINGS OF 2 0 MORE MD. AND VA.

Some- times either the dates or locations are so close as to work to the detri- ment of two shows. Sometimes, of course, a small circuit is of mutual advantage. But it is mot unljkely that the near future will see a decided turn to fewer and better shows, per- haps shows sponsored by two or more clubs in one vicinity, working together for the advancement of a noble ani- mal and an interesting sport. Hold Annual Breed Shows. MOST national breed clubs, that is, national clubs interested in fur- thering one particular breed, hold an annual breed show, better known as & specialty show. These specialty shows sometimes are held in connec- tion with a large, all-breed show, such as Westminster or Morris and Essex. Thirty-four breeds will sponsor their entries at Morris and Essex this year and call their classes their specialty shows. Sometimes these specially shows are given as independent shows, in which case they likely are to be staged in the East and generally near New York. Realizing that & national club should hold national interest, the American Shetland Sheepdog Association pio- neered in holding a show with a movable locale. Its first specialties were held in connection with the Morris and Essex show. ‘Then, thinking to create new interest and satisfy the interest already felt in the Middle West, a specialty show was held this year in connection with the Cleveland Classic. 8o successful was this that there is a good chance that the next specialty of this associa- tion will be held in connection with the 1938 National Capital show. The Collie Club of America, too, is trying out the same scheme. For two years it held an independent and succesful show at White Plains, N. Y. This year, in response to many demands from Midwest breeders, the specialty show will be held in conjunction with the Cincinnati show in November. Novice’s Victory Rare. M HOWSE'S German shepherd, Freda of Clarandall, made Tom happy last Sunday when she annexed the winner’s ribbon at the two-point Elizabeth, N. J., show. This is another oase of & novice winning, & feat that sometimes is declared impossible. But given a good dog and a person who understands him, even though he may never have seen & dog show before, the novice has a very good chance to go places. And once having tasted victory, it is mot lon, before he no longer is & novice.

Seeking an official flag for the re- gatta, the association took a look at the first submission of Andy Dufty, chairman of the committee appointed for that purpose. Duffy's draft re- vealed a triangular flag with the checkered design of the finish flag from the base outward to the half-way space and & white area from there on to the point. A feature of the luncheon was the showing of the official movies of the 1937 regatta, photographed by James A. Councilor and edited by Harry Smith. The 1937 edition of the year book of the American Power Boat Association —the largest ever published by the assoclation—is destined to reach mem- bers this week. Distribution date is April 15 at which time A. P. B. A. clubs, motor boating officials and newspapers should receive the 376« page volume. As usual, it will con- tain a complete roster of A. P. B.

ALTHOUOH its Spring racing serles does not open until two weeks from today, the annual Spring dance of the Potomac River Sailing Asso- ciation and the Corinthian Yacht Club will be held next Saturday night at Corinthian. It will be on the eve, however, of the association’s scheduled ‘“warm-up” regatta next Sunday. Nautical, as well as musical num- bers are on the program, as seen by the titles of songs to be rendered by Art Clephane, Bill Preston and Judge Prentice Edrington, “Potomac River Dues,” “Protests From Heaven" and “Stardust,” re- spectively. An after-thought is provided in the announcement which concludes with “alibies for the warm-up race the fol- lowing day will be furnished free.” John Zimmer, who recently pur- chased Clyde Cruitt's comet, Serena, is no landlubber. In addition to the Serena which he will race in the Spring series, Zimmer owns a 22-foot | sloop, the Dottie Z, and a Class B outboard. Springs, Md., during the Summer. He bought the Dottie Z from Bill Heintz, commodore of the West River Sailing Club and has won several prizes in small regattas with the outboard. Now, with a fast boat like Serena, local skippers had better keep an eye on comet No. 29. Another youngster not yet in his | teens will do his sailing in his dad’s comet this year. He is Sammie Doyle, 11, son of the gentleman mentioned at the head of this column. MOR! than 100 motor boat enthusi- asts have attended each weekly session of free instructions on handling and navigation of power boats given by the Potomac River Power Squadron, according to Charles A. Peters, jr., commander. As a further sign of growing and sustained interest in local boating, Peters points out that instead of the usual decrease in attendance following the first class last month, there has been a constant increase throughout the course. A new distributor for Gray Marine motors for Washington has been ap- pointed and has taken his place at 805 Water street southwest. He is 8. King Fulton, from Richmond, Va., who for the past several years has been associated with the Motor Boat Sales, Inc. His new show room in the G. W.

Opening as it does 15 days later than the Maryland season, there is some hope that conditions will be & whole lot better. Surely they could not be worse. Streams, from an early week end report, are in fairly good condition, having risen only slightly as & result of last week’s rain. There is not & whole lot of snow water, except in some streams in the northwest sec- tlon, and water temperatures on the average are much higher than they were this time last year. It the weather remains clear and warm for the next few days there is a strong possibility that the water will not be much higher than normal Under these conditions there will be no necessity for liver fishing, and even little need of worms. It still will be & bit early for dry flies, but a few stan- dard wets and bucktalls should turn the trick nicely. Size Limit Removed. OP COURSE, streams will be crowded opening day, especially those in the eastern section, and there is one stream in particular which will be s0 chock full of anglers that it will make that mass meeting held on Maryland’s Hunting Creek two weeks ago look like a gathering of but a few shivering anglers. We refer to Wheeler's Mill Run, up here in Fair- fax County. Exactly 750 trout were stocked in that stream, but it is so near to Washington and has been so publicized that if you do go there you will wear the elbows from your sleeves rubbing against the next angler. Virginia angling laws this year nrei the same as last, with one important | exception. The size limit on trout has | been removed and, according to an announcement of the Virginia Com- | mission of Game and Inland Fisheries, | = issued March 10, “That there be no size limit for catching trout and the angler be required to keep all trout caught and count the same in the bag limit.” The bag limit is 20 a day. A license is required to fish in Vir- ginia. The resident license fee is $2, non-resident $5. A non-resident license may be purchased at several local sporting goods stores, the Amer- ican Automobile Association, or from any county clerk. List of Stocked Streams. THE best trout streams are in the northwest section of the State. There are séveral good streams in the west central counties, especially Dry River, in Bath County, but those streams in the southwest are on the whole rather poor. Following is a list of streams in each county stocked with trout by the State since the season last closed: KEEP YOUR BOAT SHIPSHAPE With These Paints: DU PONT DULUX VALENTINE'S VALSPAR 'WOOLSEY’S BILLINGS-CHAPIN —and complete marine needs for every purpose.
