BY MALCOLM LAMBORNE, JR. S THE West River Sailing Club of Shadyside and Galesville reaches the half-way marker of its season of Sunday races, & young man who was a newcomer to the game last year and now leads in the albatross class with his Raven has old hands worried. He is John Harding, jr., age 17, who talks, eats and sleeps sailing the year round. With three firsts and a sec- ond out of five races this year, young Harding leads a fleet of nine alba- trosses sailed by such veterans as Dick Cox in the Falcon and Commodore Bill Heintz of the Madic. And frank- Iy, the latter two who stand second and third respectively in the class are wondering what they best had do. Raven, which, incidentally, is mnot ® new boat, finished among the also- rans last season. But during the Win- ter. John, a McKinley High School graduate. took to studying that weighty volume of Dr. Manfred Curry on yacht racing. And this Summer he's been | out sailing the West River nearly| everv day until he knows the waters as the oldest hardhead. Has Hefty Teammate. “.‘HAT John lacks in weight—he scales 110—his crew, young Buck | Sleghler, makes up for him. Buck tips | & 1B0 pounds and he is only 16 years old. The two have been teaming since | last vear. While John at the tiller out-maneuvers his opponents in the best. Curry manner, Buck does the heavy work, which includes keeping | Raven on nearly an even keel whei | it begins to blow. Another recent addition to the sail- Ing fraternity, Herbert Neily, is doing & well in his new Spray that he stands a good chance of lifting two trophies when the season closes on Labor day. He has come home first consistently among the 20-foot re- stricted division, composed of four sea- witches and the Lady Avon of Judge ‘Prentice Edrington, all of which race with the round-bottom boats of the 20-foot open class. In this group he’s been tallying & good third Last year was Neily's first time at racing. He didn't, in fact, get started until the very end, in the September regatta. His performance last month, when the Spray was knocked down to her spreaders in a strong gust, but righted by quick work of Neily and crew, demonstrated real seaman- ship. Cricket 1T Now Second. TV\'TG BUSH'S Cricket II has nosed | out Ralph Youngs’ Myray for eecond place at present tabulations | among the restricted class. Which proves vou never can count on this game, as Ralph took the local crown of the 20-footers in the Potomac River Sailing Association series this Spring and Bush was third. Osbourn Owings in that fast Vanity 18 headed for the 20-foot open title of West River unless the boat loses 8 mast or her bottom is attacked by the teredo worm. Ossie has four firsts and a second thus far this sea- son. Nearest competitor is Capt. Oscar Hartge in the Bahana-blue Mermaid, which has grown accus-| tomed to following in Vanity's wake. History repeats itself and it's true of the comets. Verner Smythe in B8assy Too and Clyde Cruit of the BSo0-Big stand first and second of a fleld of seven comets. McPherson | Hulbert in Aries is No. 3 skipper. | But, with the possibility of Aries nol‘\ being raced further this year, it will resolve on Freya and Escapade to fight it out for this position.

This will be a smart | move as far as the gallery is con- cerned for it means the racers are closer to seawall spectators, particu- a3 con- | | larly at the lower tum which will | be about in & line with Halns Point. | Likewise, drivers won't have to! worry about the shoals off the Vir- | ginia shore at the upper turn. This | new course will give the boys suffi- cient water all around. \\]ASHINGTON'S duet of speedsters competing in the Havre de Grace regatta last week chalked up | fine performances and among some | Jimmy Orme and uncle, Gardner Orme, in the Wooden Horse, came droplane finals, the event in which Lofland of Wilmington estab- lished a new world record of 41.744 mph, to break the old mark set| here last year in the President's Cup | by Edison Hedges. In his leaky Winkle III, Jack Hyde took second-place honors in the 135 and 151 cubic inch hydros. In the former event, he was racing against world recomxl holder, S. Mortimer Auerbach. This leaking hull is go- ing to put Hyde out of the game for some time, but he’s hoping to be in the President’s Cup regatta, especially as he has to defend his title in the All-Washington Sweepstakes, Meanwhile Jack Schneider, in the Chiquita, has installed 2 new motor— the old one was junked following & broken block at the Hampton regatta— and is giving the craft a bottom fin- ish that will be slicker than glass. Jack expects to be in shape by the St. Michael's regatta on the Eastern Shore, August 6 and 7. Although the ninth annual regatta of the Chester River Yacht and Coun- try Club, scheduled at Chestertown, Md., next Friday and Saturday has a list of sail and power events rivaling the big Miles River Yacht Club af- fair at “St. Mikes.” it has attracted only one local entry thus f; Jimmy Orme plans to enter the 91 and 135 cubic-inch contests on Saturday.

Incidentally, Phil Rigg, Washing- tonian and young yachtsman of parts, until a recent illness. had been aboard the Endeavour in her trial sails at the Rhode Island port. Maybe the clubs haven't moved out bag and bageage but their com- modores have—and to that popular anchorage on the bay, the West River. Head of the Corinthian Yacht Club, Ed Baltz, has his cruiser Fifty-Fifty moored at Hartge Bros. docks. Dick Doyle, commodore of Capital, is ex- pected in today on his Margetan with & party. They left Washington on Friday and planned to stop for fish- ing on the bay if the weather was 80od. Cruiser Margetan will be an- chored off Wagners Point on Shady- side for the remainder of the Sum- | mer. The McPherson Hulburts who keep their yawl, Vega, at Galesville the year round, were under way week before last for an extended cruise of New England. /IORE remarkable than the record number of boats of all classes that turned out on Long Island Sound for Larchmont race week was the fact that on one day with 359 craft | on hand there wasn't a single foul or a case of any boat being recalled for jumping the gun. Following the example of the Presi- dent’s Cup Regatta, for this year with the realization that windjammers and speedboats do not mix, the big Gov- ernor's regatta at New London next month has scheduled power events cne week end and sailing the next. The 47-foot Consolidated cruiser Spray of G. W. Forsberg is having A new mahogany deck house erected by those master craftsmen, Raymond Owens and Anton Rfieves, of the marine railway adjacent to Capital Yacht Club. One of the largest yachts ever to tie at the railway's docks was last week from Plorida. It was the 105- foot Mathis houseboat Carita, owned by Edward E. Bishop of Snead Island in Tampa Bay. They Wwere cruising as far North as Chesapeake Bay for the Summer. Apparently this is the northern limit for semi-tropical in- habitants.

It seems that the clos- Ing days of last week were very good with beats bringing in from 15 to 30 rock, best yet this seasca, and hard- head loads ranging from 150 to 300 All that is rather good, but here is the important news. Trout are in Boats docked at Solomons with 35 to 75 each, which certainly sounds like mid-season activity to us. And as usual, Skipper Bowen doesn't take all the credit. He says that all the other boats there were doing as well. Bay boatmen have been rath- er unfortunate this season. It has rained or blown a gale on an average of at least two days each week. But if trout and rock start coming in they will be swamped with anglers and if the biues should start, well, then they wiil coin money. All they ask is & bit of good, calm weather Pish can be caught dunng rough weather, but it is rather tough on the angler, Being inexperienced in dol- phin fishing, they had trouble finding the right bait, using everything in their tackle boxes, such as spoons, feathers and squids.
