By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON Once vou watch a Maxinkuckee Yacht Club race from the officiais’ boat, vou begin to suspect the most picturesque of sports is deadly cerious business. Cruising about on the Admiral Rodman provides a stage box seat for the race as well as a behind-the-scenes view of the directors in action A good many guns were fired and considerable activity with watches occurred before Frederick T. Holliday’'s Ruth H. III glided over the finish line as winner in Frances stole the

of the 1938 Lake Maxinkuckee regatta. The 19 yachts entered in yesterday’'s events were to compete again this morning in the Fourth of July race, for which Otto N. Frenzel Jr. has donated two lamps as trophies. Col. George Miller of Culver | Military Academy, as chief judge, and Dr. John Ray Newcomb, chiel timer. do a neat job of managing the performance from the Admiral Rodman. About two hours before

the race, Col. Miller places the three |

buoys which mark the triangular | course and in some mysterious man- | ner known to expert sailors finds out which way the wind is going to be blowing at 10 o'clock. He has to do that because the Yacht Club made a new ruling this year that all starts must be made to windward. | When the word gets around, all the | boats begin working over toward the leeward shore and huddle behind | the starting line, an imaginary boundary between the officials’ boat and the starting buoy. On the stroke of 9 the Admiral Rodman leaves the | Academy pier to take its position. | ‘What's the Course? 9:45, when Dr. Newcomh fires deafening shots from the guns, the Assembly Flag is As the skippers glide by they “What's the 19 times through his Col. Miller yesterday Yacht Club! Town of Culver! Sandbank! Twice around Finish at the Yacht Club making two and one-third laps!” At, 9:55, two more guns are fired and up goes the checkered flag, whereupon every skipper sets his | stop watch, for he knows that in| exactly 300 seconds the starting signal will be given. The rescue | ship hovers near as the yachts jock- | ey for position. Ten seconds, five seconds, four, three, two, one, the timekeeper calls—one stop watch on his wrist and another in his hand. One gun! The Yacht Club pennant is flying and almost simul- | taneously 10 E boats have crossed the starting line. With topheavy canvas bulging in the light breeze, both boats and sailors take on an unreal air, as if they were skimming around in Technicolor. Repeat Performance At 10:15, the complete starting! ritual is repeated for the Class C, or catboats, nine of which were entered in yesterday's race. Sar-| torial note: The gentlemen skippers yesterday were attired in white duck trousers or shorts with white shirts, blazers, undershirts| or just a coat of sunburm. The feminine crew members wore shirts and shorts or slacks or bathing | suits with handkerchiefs tied peas- | ant-fashion over their heads. When the race was well begun the Admiral Rodman purred over the sparkling water to the second buoy at the “Yacht Club.” Explanatory note: The yacht club is a flag pole on the Charles Harvey BradleyWilliam Rav Adams pier The real test of seamanship came in the rush to break out the spin- | nakers as the E boats rounded the | second buoy. Mr. Holliday with | Millard Mogg and Frederick T.| Holliday Jr. as crew, gained a lead here which he kept for the re- | maining two Japs of the race.| Francis Dunn and Clayton Mogg, in second place, and William E. Munk, with Mrs. Munk and George E. Home Jr. as crew, in third place, maintained their positions to the finish. Mr. Winslow and his daughter, Miss Eleanor Winslow, who were in third place in the C boat race at} the end of the first lap, with Mr. Bradley leading and Fred Holmes of Lafayette, second. forged ahead of their competitors in the last lap. during which two Culver Military Academy boats upset and one dropped out of the race. The winning E boat completed the course in one hour and 29 sec- | onds, while the catboat winner fin- | ished in two hours. Others who raced E boats vesterday were Pierce Ward, Culver; Norman Michaelis and Steven Hord, Chicago, and Cadets Burton, Hughes, Humiston | and Murray of the Academy beet, Also in the C class were Donald | Jameson and the Academy fleet of | five. The two which finished the | course were sailed by Cadets Valen- | tine and Hiner, All sailors agreed the wind and course were perfect in the season’s opening race, despite Saturday's ominous portents. You had to be | on the officials’ boat to know that | the night before the chief time Keeper had applied his unfailing formula for “wind-getting”—sleep-ing in one black silk sock and one | white cotton one.
