The Third Race. Before the third race started, the sail from dinghy number 9 was changed. All hall reefed their sails. All boats were a little behind In starting for the third race. It seem- ed as though everybody was watch- ing the movements of Hora, who was having some difficulty in tacking around, when a shout from Hopkins. and he and his crew Bil] Rigney were in the water, with their boat upset. Groans and shouts went up from the crowd of spectators, for this meant that Kingston had lost, especially as Hora was away behind the other boats and could not possibly make up for the loss of the one heat. The race continued, but all the spectators rushed to see the upset boat. Boats Played Tag. The leading boats played a, game of tag all around the course. Wind- eyer had got the start, with Sher- wood behind. Then followed, Dar- ling, Kelly and Hora. Past the first buoy Sherwood and Windeyer start- ed their, little game of tag. Sher. wood pulled ahead of Windeyer, then Windeyer was ahead of Sherwood, and so on. On the first round, the order was:* Sherwood. Windeyer, Darling, Hora, Kelly. The last two boats were far behind the others, keeping almost together. The same order prevailed on the windward leg but Sherwood and Windeyer kept up their game of shooting back and drew up close to the two leading, and now it was a three 'boat lead. On the last leg of the race, Darling drew ahead of Sherwood. The race ended with Windeyer in the lead, his time being, 40 minutes, 22 seconds, rling came in second with 40:33; Sherwood, 41:04; Hora, 85:51; Kelly, 85:53. z The final points gave the Royal Canadian Yacht Club the lead with 24 points, Kingston Yacht Club with 19 points, and the Royal St. Law- rence Yacht Club third with 18 points. * . Between the second and third races the crew members were served with tea by the ladies of the club. A dinner was given the crews and the local members. at the Frontenac Club in the evening. An invitation dance was held in the evening, after the dinner, in honor of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club, holders of the Currie cup for the ensuing year. EE ---------------- May Sign Susapne.
