SPORTS, Romance Fills Summer Days of Young Capital Yacht Club Starts With a “Bang” CRUISE RIVER, BAY, | SCORNING MOTORS * Races Today Will Usher in Sailing Season—Use 0Old Navy Cathoats. BY BILL DISMER, JR. WO catboats—those small craft with one sail on a mast near the bow, but more clearly dis- tinguishable, locally, by a large black ball on the sail—shove into . the nautical scene here today with a 8roup of youthful sea scouts proudly upholding traditions set by seagoers of the past. This afternoon they stage their own competition in the warm-up race to the Spring series of the Potomac River Sailing Associations which begins next Sunday, but racing probably is the least important phase of the ~ “catters’" careers. These sea scouts, members of and aided by the Corin- | thian Yacht Club, go in for sailing | in all of its phases. The sporting side is only one feature of their Wwide field of activity. It all came about when the Naval Academy at Annapolis decided to change from the catboat to a speedier rig and hull in 1930, there- by leaving the more stable “cat” high, wide and dry-docked. Some- how, the sea scouts of Corinthian heard of the abandonment and sub- sequently arranged for their pro- curement. Sail Boats to Washington. THE following April & small group of the Corinthian lads sailed two of these boats to Washington and after a full season of hard work— cleaning, painting, sewing canvas and many other nautical chores—were Teady for launching them. At that time they were christened the Bob- cat and the Wildcat. Since then, every Summer they have cruised to the lower Chesa- peake Bay, sailed into every Potomac harbor and raced in every contest | sponsored by the Potomac River Sail- | ing Association and the President's | Cup Regatta. Under the leadership of Skipper Fred . 'Tilp, however, it is doubtful if any sailors in the vicinity receive the | nautical training that these sea scouts receive during the season. Prelimin- ary land training includes marlinspike | seamanship, nautical history, pilot- ing, compass work, signaling, first | aid, cooking and a study of maritime law. The first water training comes with instruction of rowing in their 18-foot whale boat, which six oar: men stroke. Every scout must row properly before he is taken on cruises. The real kick, for old-timers as well as beginners, though, comes on the Summer cruises, when they sail into % THE SUNDAY .

AFTER. six years of cruising, the scouts are known to almost every | professional waterman of the waters | in the vicinity. In addition to round- | ing out their knowledge as practical sailors, the scouts receive first-hand historial background by visits to such places as Wakefield, home of George ‘Washington; St. Mary's Court House, | built at St. Marys City in 1937; % Blakistone Island, where Lord Calvert first landed in Maryland in 1634, and Stratford Hall, Lee’s birthplace in Virginia. Their current practical education also is aided by trips to tomato can- neries, fertilizer factories, fish-pack- Ing houses, ship yards, marine railways, regattas and United States naval reservations. At times, voyages are made on professional sailing craft 4 Which work on the bay, fishing for crabs and oysters.

A number of other lines followed, but the Black Ball Line remained the fastest, largest and most prosperous until the Clipper Ship era. With brand-new sails donated by the Corinthian Club, the Bobcat and Wild- cat are ready for the year. Both have been freshly painted and rigged and are the council flagships of the Dis~ tret of Columbia Sea Scout Council. They will serve as hosts to the Sea 8couts who will be here for the Scout Jamboree in June. DELCO PORTABLE ELECTRIC PLANT for your boat, cottage, garage or shop.

Not content with working the slide rule at the end of each race for the last two years and devising handicap systems that will arouse a minimum of squawks, Paul Tomalin, a member of the Race Committee, has been busy designing trophies to be presented to first and second place winners in each class, Trophies for the last boat to finish in the various classes have been prom- ised, but just what they might be was not announced. Another prize to be called the Bottoms-Up Trophy will be placed in competition. It's to be awarded to the first boat that capsizes on the course. How many boats will be on hand when the 10-minute warning gun is fired at 2:05 from Adrian Sizer'’s Adonis is problematic. minute activity around the crane at Capital indicates that a good number will represent the comet class, the class A and B handicaps and the 20-foot open class. The latter group will start the race, beginning at 2:15 o’clock. The comets cross the line five minutes later with class B following at 2:25 and class A at 2:30.

There’s no chance of getting away from a luncheon unknown or ignorant of the identity of one’s fellow diners. Usually the first order of business is self introduction, with Chairman | Jim Councilor calling on each one present to rise, give his name and business connection. After two or three attendances of a hitherto stranger he becomes “Jim” or “John” or “Dick,” as the most regular at- | tendant. Reports quickening the imagination of those who live, sleep and eat the President’s Cup Regatta nearly al- ways are encouraging and one has vet to leave with anything but an optimistic outlook. At $25 per mem- bership, the uninformed might think it difficult to increase the size of the assoclation, but with present members representing every basic business, the growth of the organization not only is inevitable, but destined to be all- inclusive. Capt. Cox Is Back. 'HE familiar face of Capt. Q W. Cox, skipper of Carl Smith's Larc, | 48-foot Dawn cruiser, is back at the Capital Yacht Club for the season. With one deckhand, Cox brought the Larc through the inland waterway from St. Augustine after a Winter in Florida. One of the tornadoes that whipped through Georgia last week barely missed the Larc as she came up St. Catherine Sound. Only rain was felt at the blow's edge, however, but bad weather fol- lowed the Larc throughout the 10- day trip, even to Washington, where she docked in rain on Wednesday. A number of boats have been launched at Corinthian within the last few days, ready to give their own= KEEP YOUR BOAT !

Rudy Kauffmann have is- sued a call for all oarsmen of the Po- tomac Boat Club to report a week from today. Nearly two dozen candi- dates are expected. The monthly meeting of the board of governors on Wednesday night will consider schedules for the club’s crews. Until a regular coach is named, Po- tomac's senior members will lead the training. Last year’s champion 20-foot open, the Lady Avon of Judge P. E. Edring- ton, went overboard last week sport- ing a blue-painted deck, white top- sides and a bronze bottom. The judge also has ordered a new suit of Pres- cott and Wilson sails. Maj. L M. Bricker and James Webb again will crew for the Lady Avon, With the launching of Arthur Carr's sloop Sea Gull, three of this class— the Herreshoff Buzzards Bay one de- sign—will be sailing on the Potomac. The other two are Ted De Boer’s Sand- piper, champion of the Class A handi- cap and Nelson Elgin’s Buccaneer from Corinthian. A number of these boats raced at Gibson Island before De Boer brought the first one here three years ago. Elgin followed a year later and Carr procured his last Winter. The latter is a 24-foot overall with a 75-foot beam and contains a roomy cockpit. ‘The mainsail is gaff-rigged and the total sail area is 240 square feet. White’s Boat Arrives. NOTHER class—the Shaneateles comet—also received its third local member with the addition of William ‘White’s Frolic. Aldrich Dudley’s Breezy and William Diehl’s Cygnet are the other two. White's arrived last week from New York and will be moored at Capital. Still another comet is being built here, by Henry Brylawski. He will call it the Nimbus, but as it will not be completed in time for the Spring series, he will sail it first at Rock Point this Summer. Next Fall he will be ready for the Potomac River Sailing Associa~ tion competition. g o Supply AND AT A SAVINGS OF 207 won: MD. AND VA.

FTER an absence of seven months, Marty Gallagher will stage his annual come- back attempt tomorrow night at Turner'’s Arena when he stacks up against one Sandy McDonald, Texas heavyweight, in a 10-round feature bout which may or may not prove attractive to local caulifiower customers. Soundly whipped by Buck Everett at Grifith Stadium in his last ring appearance in September, the peren- nial pride of Foggy Bottom meets somewhat of an unknown quantity in the 210-pound, 6-foot 3-inch Mc- Donald, McDonald’s Record Fair. McDONALD has looked very good In preliminaries on several of Joe Louis’ cards. He licked Larry Johnson on the Louis-Carnera show, kayoed Paul Hoff on the Louis-Ettore card, defeated Jack McCarthy on the Louis-Baer program and trounced Jimmy Howell on the Louis-Brown card. On the other hand, however, he has been knocked kicking in two rounds by one of the few outstanding fighters he has met, Gunnar Barlund. More than 50 per cent of his bouts have been knockouts, but none over fighters whose names you would recognize. Gallagher is being pointed toward & match with Bob Tow, who will emerge from retirement next week to stack up against Eddie Mader. The riding academy master has worked out faithfully with Natie Brown, local Jewish heavyweight, and is reported to have whipped himself into excellent condition. Grudge Bout on Card. SIX-ROUND bouts list Vincent Se- rica, New York middleweight, fac- ing Al Lowman of Baltimore and Mike | O’Leary, Baltimore lightweight, meet- ing Bob Anderson of Leonardtown. O'Leary and Anderson refused to stop swinging last week at the final bell, having worked up an intense hatred of each other in their many previous | encounters. Four-round preliminaries find Jimmy De Shong, Baltimore bantamweight, squaring off with Jimmy Clifton, a local lad, and Mike Groves, local light- weight, trading blows with Vicent Bonovari. The first punch will be launched at 8:30 o'clock. —_— OUTBOARD STARS ENTER | Louisville Event Drawing Well for East and Midwest. 8pecial Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK got only two hits off Walter Johnson, but de- feated the Nats, 2-1, both runs scoring on errors. The Yanks scored their first run in the second inning when Short Stop Crane dropped Ainsmith’s perfect peg on a double steal, allowing Pipp to cross the plate, and their other run in the seventh when Ainsmith dropped Johnson’s relay of an outfield return to catch Pipp who had tripled. Johnson's performance gave him a record of only 5 alien hits in two games, the Big Train having blanked Philadelphia with 3 in the season’s opener. Intercollegiate competition in track has been abolished by Gal- laudet. The Kendall Greeners de- termined upon the action early in the year, but no formal announce- ment was made. The war situation had nothing to do with the de- cision, the student body merely being too small to carry on more than one sport at a time. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin D.

For see you Keep cool and calm, just hum a psalm, As all good chess players do! Should that not win, then try a hymn, And pinch a pawn or two! To “get your man” just plot and plan To catch him on the nod! Divert his looks, then ninch his rooks, And then leave the rest to God! For chess, like life, means stress and strife; In love and war all’s fair! So though you're won by things “not done” Why worry? C'est la guerre!
