August 11, the club will be hosts to an invitational regatta, August 18, the Spink-Wawasee Trophy race will be run and August 25, a lady skippers race will be run. Other routine business was conducted and officers of the club expressed informally a desire that every member be given the information that it is their desire that more members participate in business affairs of the club. Race Chairman Grew Up With Boats. E. J. 'Stroud, chairman of the Wawasee Yacht Club race committee, has literally been associated with boats throughout his entire life. Mr. Stroud was born on Lake Erie at Sandusky, Ohio. He laughingly relates that whenever the Coast Guard got a report of impending rough weather, their first duty was to telephone his father and urge him to get those Stroud kids off the lake. Mr. Stroud has built thirty sailboat models; his first when a boy six years of age. In 1890, his model scooner placed first in a model sail boat regatta sponsored by the Interlakes Model Yachting Association at Put-in-Bay. One of his early attempts at power models was a steam propelled model which he built to compete with the English model “Evil Spirit.” This model was disqualified because of two pounds of excessive weight. His latest model is a 36 inch, one-half horsepower speed boat whitfh he has entered in the regatta sponsored by the International Model Power Boat Association at petroit on July 3, 4 and 5. As a youth, he was often employed in the ship yards at Sandusky and has helped to hew by hand timbers used in construction of Great Lake tugs and freighters constructed entirely of wood. He has been chairman of the club race committee for four years and served as chairman in 1938 when the Wawasee Club was host to the Snipe International Races. Lombardy Poplars Donated to Club. A hedge of Lombardy poplars will be set at the south boundary of the club property sometime in April. These trees have been ordered and donated by Jack Fyock, skipper of the Snipe Sigma. Other trees and shrubs are needto complete a plan of landscaping now being worked out. Evergreens to set at the south corners of the locker room are especially desired. Any member feeling disposed to make a gift to the club should communicate with an officer and the needs will be more fully explained. Mid-Winter Snipe Championships Held at Clearwa- ■ * ter, Florida. The mid-winter championship series for boats affiliated with the Snipe Class International Association were recently sailed at Clearwater, Florida. Guy S. Roberts, nicknamed the “First Duke of Clearwater” upon occasion of his entry into the 1938 championships at Wawasee, was chairman of the mid-winter meet. Pat McCarty, local club member, was a spectator at the Florida event. Wavfcsee Snipe Fleet Loses Numbers. At one time the Wawasee Snipe Fleet boasted sixteen Snipe skippers who were active and sailing in every race. With the advent of the new National One-Design class, three of the most enthusiastic skippers went into that class. Since then, interest in the Snipe Fleet has waned to a certain extent. However, with such enthusiastic skippers as the Levinson brothers, Nichens, Hess, and Suntheimer, much can be done to make the Snipe class the strong

Prospects for new- skippers in the Snipe fleet are good. Deals for two other Snipes are now under way and it behooves every member to boost this class whenever possible. The Snipe is the most popular small boat in existence, having the strongest in the world. The Snipe is an inexpensive boat, simple in design and operation. The Snipe class international races each autumn are a blue ribbon event. The class has a district organization, the local one known as the Upper Great Lakes’ Snipe Class Association. The states of Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin comprise the district. This district holds an annual regatta to determine the Lipper Great Lakes Championship? Jack Fyock is a member of the board of directors for the district organization. It is expected that several local skippers will plan to attend this season's regatta to be held at a place and at a time to be announced later.
