HEN there are the rainbows, little 12-foot sailing scows with a single sail and the appearance of a moth | only with more freeboard, that will race in a class. Twelve of them came from Toledo, Ohio, on Wednesday, home of their designer, Sea Scout | Skipper Bili Zimmer. Ali homemade affairs, including the sails, they can- not cost over $25 and are built by the Scouts. In fact, there is one in | the fleet that cost its owner $17.50 to launch, ready for sailing Several moths and two sloops from St. Louis, Mo, are ex- pected out and will join up on a handicap basis. The class X's are 18 feet over all, carry 138 square feet of canvas and look fast. Races have been scheduled for 2:10 and 3:30 with a one-lap course of 2,000 yards around the point. At 3 o'clock it has been planned for Judge Prentice Edrington, well- known star class champion and in Jocal yachting. skipper of the 20-foot Lady Avon, to give a 15-minute broadcast over N. B.

IN ADDITION to the familiar Coast Guard cutter Apache, which lies anchored in the Georgetown Chan- nel, and the new U. S. 8. Porter, a fleet-leader destroyer, visited da by details of Scouts, there is on hand for the regatta the 35-year-old schooner Tabor Boy from Marion, | Mass., which has aboard’ 16 young | sailors and officers who came down from New England in six days. The 90-foot gaffed-rigged ship is a train- ing vessel for bays of Tabor Academy. | Corinthian Yacht Club Sea Scouts with Dick Winfleld in charge of the | catboat Bobcat and Charles Krey | skippering the Wildcat have been | busy every day taking visiting Scouts out for sails. Skipper Fred Tilp re- | ports that cockpits have been crammed on each trip and that some of the out-of-town boys are being taught real nautical lingo. Daniel | Rabenhorst, who sailed Bobcat to first place of class A in the Spring: series of the Potomac River Sailing Association, was awarded a free | scholarship to the jamboree follow- ing competition among leading Sea Scouts in the District. Cruises Start Next Sunday. NEXT Sunday, incidentally, at the conclusion of the jamboree, the | first of three long cruises on the Po- tomac River begins for the two cat- boats. Remaining in communication via semaphore signals while underi way, the cats will visit every impor- tant harbor of the Potomac down to the Little Wicomico inside of Smith Point. Tilp will be in charge of the initial cruise with Rabenhorst and Krey as bo'suns, First Mate Robert Hedges com- mands the second cruise slated to begin on August 2. And for the Scout | that has been left on the beach be- cause of Summer school, there will be a two weeks' cruise beginning on August 16.

BETHESDA FIREMEN PUT OUT COPS’ NINE Johnson, Rice Umpire 15-Inning Fray as Montgomery Police Lose for Third Year. E: a Staff Correspondent of The Star. BETHF.SDA, Md. July 3.—In 15 innings of conflict, marked by three home runs and equally divided hits, the local fire department base ball team today downed the Mont- gomery County police, 17-16, in their annual game before some 1,500 spec- tators at Corby's Field on the Rock- ville pike. The victory enabled the firefighters to keep clear their record in the three years the contest has been held. A strong drawing card was the presence of two famous retired major league players, Walter Johnson and Sam Rice, who served as umpires. None of their decisions was vocifer- ously opposed during the four hours of battle. Hero of the victors was Third Base- man Thomas Hendley, whose circuit clout in the ninth inning, with two men on base, tied the score at 10-10. He also drove in the winning tally. John Murdock, first baseman of the firemen's aggregation, collected three hits out of four attempts. The smoke-eaters used three pitchers, Chief Hiram Musgrove, Arthur Old- fleld and Norman Harris. Two policemen banged home runs— Sergt. James McAuliffe and Marion “Buzz” Dayhoff. The losers also utilized three twirlers in Leslte Thompson, Karl Jones and Dayhofr. Jones played in left field during the 12 innings he was not on the mound. The hit total was 16 for each team. Pwo players were injured. McAuliffe was forced to leave the game when he suffered a twisted ankle, while Hend- ley received first aid for spike wounds and returned to the game. GIANTS DRAW ON FARM. NEW YORK.

Py the Associated Press. HOT SPRINGS, Va, July 3.—Two distinct upsets today sent 17- vear-old Susie Ingalls of Hot Springs {and Lillian Wood of Richmond into | the semi-finals of the Virginia Women's Golf Tournament, along with Defending Champion Lily Harper of Portsmouth and Mrs. C. G. Quesen- bery of Waynesboro. Miss Ingalls, daughter of Fay In- galls, president of the Virginia Hot | Springs Association. who is making | her debut in the State event, dis- played a superb game that banished Mrs. H. N.

Miss Wood eliminated Mrs. George Owens of Petersburg, another pre- tournament favorite to reach semi-finals, by the decisive margin of 6 and 5. CAPITAL SHOTS BAG EASTERN GARLANDS Woman on Team of Four Winning Open Event—D. C. Scores in Rifle, Pistol Pairs. Bpecial Dispatch to The Btar. CAMP RITCHIE, Md., July 3.— Washington shooters came through in a big way to gather a large share of the honors of the Eastern open rifle and pistol matches held here over the week end. Two team champion- ships and a share of another were garnered by marksmen from the Na- tional Capital, who were among the 418 contestants, the largest field ever found in an Eastern shooting tourna- ment. With a woman in the line-up, the National Capital Club's four-man team won the Eastern open event championship, beating its nearest competitor by 11 points. Mrs. Robert Foster was the only non-male member of the team, but her 292 was second only to T. G. Arnold, who shot 296. H. J. Thill scored 291 and J. D. Mc- Nabb 290. The other championship captured by an all-American team was the two-man rifle team event, which was won by Dr. Walter Stokes and Hugh Reilly. . Roger S8cott, also of Washington, became a co-holder of the two-man pistol team championship when he paired with H. W. Amundsen of Plainfield, N. J,, to nose out the Del- aware & Hudson Railroad police team. Scott also finished in fifth place in the slow fire match with the big hand- guns. AN WILL STAY IN GAME SAYS LITTLE TRAIN By the Assoctated Press. DELAND. Fla, July 3.—Walter (Lit- tle Train) Johnson, jr., son of the famous “Big Train” base ball pitcher and manager, sald today he had no intention of giving up the game just because he was released uncondition- ally by the Deland Reds of the Florida State League. “I'll be pitching as long as I have an arm left—either arm,” he de- clared. “I didn’t go into the game just to please dad. Of course, he wanted me to do it, but I like it, too, and I still think I'm on my way up.” He said he had sent telegrams to & number of minor league teams seeking & job. “I'll probably finish my law course this Winter at the University of Maryland, but I'll be back with base ball again when the season reopens.

Regatta.” They were piped to mess by a Coast Guard master at arms and simultaneously a red pennant, signifying “crew at meal” went up on the signal mast that Andy Duffy finally brought in. A ship's bell, taken from a captured rum-runner, rang the hours. It was the first strictly nautical gathering of the Fo'c'sle Club, formed last month by officers and those in- terested in the success of the Presi- dent’s Cup Regatta By the time September rolls around these leaders, meeting in the Harrington Hotel every other week on Mondays, will be real salts, Skipper Jim Councilor announced the placing in competition of a trophy, & Gruen watch, to the driver of a speedboat that makes the fastest time over any lap.

By GtoraEe £ HuBER- HIS column always is willing to argue about which fish, pound for pound, has more fight than any other fish, our personal favorite being the smallmouth black bass in fresh water and bluefish in salt. Both are beginning to take various bait offerings in the Wash- ington fishing area. Largemouths are doting a bit better than their brothers, but there is not so very much differ- ence between them after all. Already we have well authenticated reports of two bass better than 4 pounds each taken from Gunston Cove this season, which is unusual considering that that spot mostly is known for small fish. A 4-pound 7- ounce specimen was caught by Marvin Cook of Hagerstown in the Potomac near Antietam Furnace, the largest fish to be caught there in over two seasons. It was caught on artificial bait, too, whioh makes it all the more important. Baring more rain, the North Fork of the Shenandoah will be clear early this week, but noth- ing like that is in sight yet for the South Fork. That is unfortunate, as the South|” Pork is considered the better bass| stream. It was muddy much of Iast year and the year before, and few fish were taken which amounted to any- thing, so possibly it offers excellent prospects for some big lunkers if and when the muddy water clears, Blues Getting Better. BLUEP'XSH are moving up the bay. Catches in the middles are get- ting larger and a school was sighted off North Beach recently. We heard of this school and expressed the be- Lief that it was rock rather than blues. Immediately, however, we received a @ocaly letter from R. F. Green of Brentwood, Md,, stating that he saw the school and knew it for bluefish. He has seen the school several times and trolled through it, but s0 far has had no strikes. Croaker fishing, however, is 2ood he reports. Last week he caught 25, some of them weigh- ing as much as 3 pounds. Capt. T. E. Jones of North Beach, master of the Eastern Shore Fishing Fleet stationed there, also is reporting good catches of hardhead, trout and rock. His boat Silvia on one trip to the Gooses with a party of 12 brought in about 20 for each angler. Fishing off the pier at Seaside is not up to par, however. The water is full of spot, which, with some crabs, continually eat the bait off the hook without being hooked themselves. The only thing to do in a case like that, we have found, is to change to a smaller hook baited with bloodworms and catch the spot. Although they are smaller than most other bay fish, they make tasty eating when fried. There is no use in trying to hook larger fish when they are around, as they soon strip all the bait from the hook. The smaller spot, those 3 to 6 inches long, which are 80 injured in catching that they can- not be thrown back will make excel- lent beit for trout and blues.
