MICHAELS, for 360 days of the year a typically sleepy Eastern Shore fishing town, will be athrob with activity this week as yachtsmen from Balti- more, Washington, Annapolis, Norfolk, Philadelphia and as far away as New York gather for the sixteenth annual regatta of the Miles River Yacht Club. What Larchmont Race Week is to Long Island Sound, the “St. Mikes” regatta is to Chesapeake Bay. It the biggest nautical gathering in those waters with power and sailing enthusiasts alike getting their share of events. Spectators afloat or lining the shores can get theirs, too, be it the race of the 225-cubic-inch hydro- planes for the Bushmill Trophy or the colorful event between the Chesa- peake Bay log canoes for the Goy- rnor’s Cup. As in previous years the log canoes, those narrow-beamed affairs that ap- pear ready to go over with their kite- like spread of canvas, should steal the show. Such old-timers as the Island Bird of Caulk Kemp, jr., and the Margaret P. Hall of Duke Adams compete for the Capt. Sidney W. Covington Trophy for canoes built prior to 1917. George H. Wilson's Magic, winner last year; the May- flower of Howard Strong and John D. Williams’ Mystery, all newer transom- &tern craft, w race for the Capt John B. Harrison Trophy for canoes launched since 1917. Program Has 87 Events.
