f Sailing Becomes Everybody’s Sport at Little Cost on Boston’s Charles River « ^ Community Club Boasts 1,000 Members, Has $50,000 Home One Doesn't Need Even a Boat to Belong; Civic Venture Believed Unique in U. S. By JAMES F. KING. wtd* world Sports Writer. BOSTON. Aug. 21.—Yachting, once only for kings and million- aires, has come into its own on Boston's picturesque Charles River as a sport for every one. Neither wealth, age nor sex are barriers; you don't need even a ! boat. The only “must” is that you be able to swim. Oh, yes, there are dues—25 cents a month for boys and girls 1 between tne ages oi 12 ana ib. But' if a youngster has a sincere interest in sailing and finds himself tem- porarily in financial difficulty, ways usually are found for him to earn his passage. And with that go the privileges of the beautiful new *50.000 yacht club—the home of the Community Sailing Association—and use of its nifty dinghies, the pier, lockers and showers. Towels once were free, too. but along with the changing times there's a fee now—five cents. The program—a civic sailing ven- ture believed unique in this country —originally was designed for young- sters who otherwise couldn't afford to sail. Membership Is Cosmopolitan It's probably now the most cos- mopolitan yacht club in the country —its more than 1,000 members ranging from 9 years of age to that peak where some people won’t ad- mit, the number of their birthdays. The newsboy on the corner can be seen footing along at a grea^ rate in the trim 13-foot dinghy, probably testing his skill against one of the city's leading doctors— a fellow club-member. The adults pay *15 a year—and this plan to popularize sailing has brought into the ranks physicians, nurses, schoolteachers, policemen, firemen, laborers, clerks and about every other group. Gasoline rationing has led some to look for this recreation they'd never tried before—and the red- tipped sails of these little boats can be seen flicking in the sunlight in the Charles River Basin at all hours by the scores. Beacon Hill, with its red-brick buildings, lends a colorful backdrop to the scene. The Community Sailing Associa- tion now has 30 dinghies, their sails T5 and 56 square feet, respectively; 4 schooners, 20 dories, 10 rowboats >-,- to shore and the Texan, a bit sheep- ishly, explained: “How was I to know these things don’t have a keel to keep their top- side up?" Wood, who has1 been sailing since he came to Tech in 1914 and brougnt his boat along—the only sailboat in the Charles basin at the time— says: "II you can sail a dinghy, you can sail anything." Thus the movement is well under- way to restore sailing fame to new England—home of the first clipper ships of a bygone era. Naval Academy Host Again for Yachting Contests on Bay Large racing yachts which have shown no indication of decreasing in numbers since the season began on Chesapeake Bay will participate a week from Sunday in another of the Naval Academy-sponsored races.1 Star boats also are scheduled. An 18-mile course similar to the Annapolis Yacht Club circuit in the * bay will be used for A. B and C cruising classes, while the stars race over a 5-mile course. Prizes have been donated by the Academy. This marks the first sum- mer the .Navy has sponsored sailing races, although the Academy fleet has participated in numerous events. Capt. K. C. Christian, command- ing the Naval Academy Yacht Squadron, is chairman of the Race Committee. Sparrows Point Regatta Has Been Called Off The annual regatta of Sparrows Point Yacht Club, near Baltimore, has been canceled. The event was to have been held tomorrow and Sunday. Plans are going ahead, however, for the club's dinner and dance to which sailors of Chesapeake Bay have been invited. I Designed by M. I. T. Professor. The “dinks” were designed espe- cially by Prof. George Owen of the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. noted marine designer. Chief force originally behind the movement of sailing for every one in the basin was Joseph Lee, whose father, Charles Lee. was known as the “Father of the American Play- ground." Prom slum areas, Lee recruited youngsters and taught them to build a lugger-rigged, dory-shaped sail- boat. Gradually, civic organizations became interested. The metnvditan district com- mission authorized use of money in the Storrow Fund, created by James J. Storrow, a pioneer in the devel- opment of the basin, for construc- tion of the yacht club and the pur- chase of boats and equipment. The community fund offered to help financially, but the “25-cent yacht club” was such a success from the beginning that it hasn't been necessary to use any of this money. Walter (Jack) Wood, who started a dinghy sailing program at M. I. T. that now has spread to half a hun- dred colleges, was named commo- dore of the new club. He has established shore schools to train young and old in the fun- damentals of sailing, and once passed in swimming tests the re- cruits are allowed to try a hand- first. as green seamen, then “red” seamen and finally ordinary sea- men. Nearly half of the 1,000-odd mem- bers are girls—and Wood says that while they’re a bit timid at first., once they learn the rudiments they've ranked among the best sailors. Sailor Unused to Canvas. Servicemen are elegible for junior tnemhershin and Wood likes to tell the story of the sailor from Texas who brought two girl friends down for a sail. He had been to sea on a battle- ship. but that was the extent of his sailing. The girl friends were impressed however, and they set out. A tricky shift of wind put our hero in trouble immediately and when he tried to head the dinghy into the wind the little craft cap- sized.

I APBA Called by Coast Guard For Aid in Submarine Patrol Small Craft Asked, Requirements for Men Not Rigid and They May Select Status By MALCOLM LAMBORNE, Jr. Vice Admiral Russell R. Waesche, commandant of the Coast Guard, has asked the aid of the American Power Boat Association in recruiting pleasure craft for use as Government patrol boats to assist in the submarine menace, it was learned today. The appeal was addressed to John A. Remon, president of the association, American motor boating’s governing and policy organi- zation. i Admiral Waesche has asked the 4 co-operation of APBA in obtaining for immediate use, all vessels suit- able for patrol and observation work, including anti-submarine op- erations, along the East and Gulf coasts. In reply, Remdh, a Washing- tonian, has issued a call to his mem- I bership to aid in this vitally import- ! ant service. The owner of every suitable vessel is urged to lend his boat to the serv- ice for Coast Guard Reserve duty, Admiral Waesche asserted. As to personnel, ability to operate a boat at sea and physical stamina to per- form duty are the only require- ments. Nor are there any age limits j or specified physical standards. Men will be enrolled as tempor- ary members of the Coast Guard Reserve, will be given full military status and will be permitted to serve on full or part time duty either with or without pay. Coast Guard headquarters recent- ly issued new orders governing the Reserve in a move designed to per- mit maximum utilization of boats and their owners with the Navy’s sea frontier commands. Perhaps the most significant de- Hni tAioiiijyt, icguiatiuiia the fact that a boat owner rieed not be a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary nor possess a boat of his own in order to get on the anti- sub patrol. If otherwise qualified, he may be enrolled and placed aboard any craft on which he is will- ing to serve By the same taken, a ; person owning a boat suitable for service may offer it without accom- t panying it as a crew member. Pour types of vessels are being sought by the Coast Guard. They are fishing boats, small commercial craft, tugs and yachts, both power and sail. The last-named category, of course, is the biggest field upon which the service ha* drawn and hopes to continue to count on. There are no hard and fast rules governing the types of yachts eli- gible for duty, although the follow- i 1 ing general specifications have been outlined by headquarters. Boats | must be power-operated, driven by | engines alone or by motor serving as auxiliary. Definite limits on length are left up to procurement officers of the various naval districts. I but all boats must be capable of op- erating in waters in which they are M accepted and under average weather r | conditions. : I Accommodation* for 4 Needed. The captain of the port here indi- , cated that boats over 40 feet long, with accommodations for at least four men, are needed in this area, j That office is also interested in sail- a a a a V *-1 ing craft capable of going to aea for certain periods. Speed in motorboats is an impor- tant factor, for yachts not always will be operating in smooth waters. Construction of hulls and decks are deciding factors, too. as the mount- ing of guns requires a firm foun- dation. All boats, whether accepted for patrol or actual combat duty, are being fitted with two-way radio and machine guns. Larger craft are being equipped with depth charge gear and other anti-submarine de- vices. according to a headquarters announcement. Indian Landing Holds Curtailed Regatta On August 30 Spectil Dispatch to The Star. MILLERSVILLE, Md„ Aug. 21.— The annual regatta of Indian Land- ing Boat Club to be held off Herald Harbor on the Severn River h”' been shortened to one day and will be staged August 30. Commodore Norman R. Smith announced here yesterday. / It marks the second one-day sail- ing regatta in the Chesapeake Bay area this year and is an outgrowth of the war, Smith said. Races are scheduled for 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Sunday. The event originally was to be held tomorrow and Sunday with a total of three races. The club will sponsor its usual I 10 classes, the commodore said. They are 20-footers, divisions 1 j 2; 17-foot open.

It’s the outgrowth of an idea cooked up by some of the local pen- guin sailors, including Fleet Captain Charley Runyon. Standard equipment for a treas- ure hunt, says Capt. Runyon, an old treasure hunter from Barnegat Bay, is pencil and paper, a good look at the chart before starting out and a knowledge of Potomac River land- marks. Around 2 p.m. Sunday the skip- pers will be handed what treasure hunters call a clue. Maybe it will be a verse or maybe a (bad) pun. In any case, the hunter is supposed to see in it directions of where to go first. When the skipper arrives at the first place, he’ll- find another clue containing a veiled hint of the next “mark.” This goes on for about four or five clues, until the “treas- ure” donated by the penguin fleet here is reached. The clues over the course must be replaced by the skippers after they arrive at the place, so that others following can find them. What the treasure 1s remains a deep secret until Sunday afternoon. Nothing was said, either, about the skipped who isn’t good at puns or poetry. Maybe he’ll spend the afternoon at the club bar and emerge the winner. Table of Tides Hereabout Time, Eastern Standard.

The Monocacy continues to pour a load of silt into the main river; Virginia creeks are doing likewise, and the Shenan- doah. while having receded quickly from the flood stage of early tnis wee*, wiu require other week, without rain, to be' fishable. Other nearby bans water* are no better and hold little promise of clearing for days. So, for this week end, casters would do better to join the competitive casters on the Lin- coln Memorial reflecting pool. They at least will get in a little practice. Saturday afternoon from 2 to 5 and Sunday from 9 to 1 are the hours set by the National Capi- tal Casting Club. The score this week counts toward the Neptune, Room Trophy, too, and is the last chance to get in for the finals in mid-September. Hagerstown Anglers Practical. So far as we know, the weight of any fish, for prise or record, is j counted as it is taken, barring, of course, such extraneous items as sounding leads and dipseys, but that isn’t the way bass fishermen count their catches up Hagerstown way. No, sir! Ihoee boys weigh’em first and then operate. If the prize in question has eaten too heartily before falling for dessert in the way of a plug, they discount the meal. At least some do and, therefore, have raised a question that bids fair to continue on and on. It comes about through the 5- pound 1-ounce trout caught by J. C. I Moore at Dam 5. We reported it as I the top fish of the season more \ than a week back. At least the fish weighed that much after the initial ceremony. Later, when an undi- gested 13-ounce bass was taken from its innards, the count was only 4 pounds 4 ounces. Now bass are noted for their can- nibalistic tendencies, and are known to bite off more than they can take, sometimes, but we have yet to see the angler that can get one fish in another without leaving traces of his perfidy. So, if there were nothing to indicate this was done, we believe the first weighing should be official. By expressing an opin- ion there is no wish to join in the controversy, and only to let them jut around Ocean City. Md., there ias been no cause for complaint for, In spite of the restrictions, Ishermen are catching more and arger fish than they have since the nlet blew through in 1933. Accom- nodations aren't obtainable so sasily, for unlike other small re- torts Ocean City is having a banner murist season, so make reservations n advance. There is no doubt surf fishing will Time into its own now that sporfs- Ishlng boats are not allowed far iffshore. and tnere will not be near- ly enough rods available to supply those who will want to take It up for the duration.

Sailing Becomes Everybody’s Sport at Little Cost on Boston’s Charles River « ^

Community Club Boasts 1,000 Members, Has $50,000 Home

One Doesn't Need Even a Boat to Belong; Civic Venture Believed Unique in U. S.

By JAMES F. KING. wtd* world Sports Writer.

BOSTON. Aug. 21.—Yachting, once only for kings and million- aires, has come into its own on Boston's picturesque Charles River as a sport for every one.

Neither wealth, age nor sex are barriers; you don't need even a !

boat. The only “must” is that you be able to swim. Oh, yes, there are dues—25 cents a month for boys and girls 1

between tne ages oi 12 ana ib. But' if a youngster has a sincere interest in sailing and finds himself tem- porarily in financial difficulty, ways usually are found for him to earn his passage.

And with that go the privileges of the beautiful new *50.000 yacht club—the home of the Community Sailing Association—and use of its nifty dinghies, the pier, lockers and showers. Towels once were free, too. but along with the changing times there's a fee now—five cents.

The program—a civic sailing ven- ture believed unique in this country —originally was designed for young- sters who otherwise couldn't afford to sail.

Membership Is Cosmopolitan It's probably now the most cos-

mopolitan yacht club in the country —its more than 1,000 members ranging from 9 years of age to that peak where some people won’t ad- mit, the number of their birthdays.

The newsboy on the corner can

be seen footing along at a grea^ rate in the trim 13-foot dinghy, probably testing his skill against one of the city's leading doctors— a fellow club-member.

The adults pay *15 a year—and this plan to popularize sailing has brought into the ranks physicians, nurses, schoolteachers, policemen, firemen, laborers, clerks and about every other group.

Gasoline rationing has led some to look for this recreation they'd never tried before—and the red- tipped sails of these little boats can be seen flicking in the sunlight in the Charles River Basin at all hours by the scores.

Beacon Hill, with its red-brick buildings, lends a colorful backdrop to the scene.

The Community Sailing Associa- tion now has 30 dinghies, their sails T5 and 56 square feet, respectively; 4 schooners, 20 dories, 10 rowboats

to shore and the Texan, a bit sheep- ishly, explained:

“How was I to know these things don’t have a keel to keep their top- side up?"

Wood, who has1 been sailing since he came to Tech in 1914 and brougnt his boat along—the only sailboat in the Charles basin at the time— says:

"II you can sail a dinghy, you can sail anything."

Thus the movement is well under- way to restore sailing fame to new England—home of the first clipper ships of a bygone era.

Naval Academy Host Again for Yachting Contests on Bay

Large racing yachts which have shown no indication of decreasing in numbers since the season began on Chesapeake Bay will participate a week from Sunday in another of the Naval Academy-sponsored races.1 Star boats also are scheduled.

An 18-mile course similar to the Annapolis Yacht Club circuit in the * bay will be used for A. B and C cruising classes, while the stars race over a 5-mile course.

Prizes have been donated by the Academy. This marks the first sum- mer the .Navy has sponsored sailing races, although the Academy fleet has participated in numerous events.

Capt. K. C. Christian, command- ing the Naval Academy Yacht Squadron, is chairman of the Race Committee.

Sparrows Point Regatta Has Been Called Off

The annual regatta of Sparrows Point Yacht Club, near Baltimore, has been canceled. The event was to have been held tomorrow and Sunday.

Plans are going ahead, however, for the club's dinner and dance to which sailors of Chesapeake Bay have been invited. I

He has established shore schools to train young and old in the fun- damentals of sailing, and once passed in swimming tests the re-

cruits are allowed to try a hand- first. as green seamen, then “red” seamen and finally ordinary sea-

men. Nearly half of the 1,000-odd mem-

bers are girls—and Wood says that while they’re a bit timid at first., once they learn the rudiments they've ranked among the best sailors.

Sailor Unused to Canvas. Servicemen are elegible for junior

tnemhershin and Wood likes to tell the story of the sailor from Texas who brought two girl friends down for a sail.

He had been to sea on a battle- ship. but that was the extent of his sailing.

The girl friends were impressed however, and they set out.

A tricky shift of wind put our

hero in trouble immediately and when he tried to head the dinghy into the wind the little craft cap- sized.

APBA Called by Coast Guard For Aid in Submarine Patrol

Small Craft Asked, Requirements for Men Not Rigid and They May Select Status

By MALCOLM LAMBORNE, Jr. Vice Admiral Russell R. Waesche, commandant of the Coast

Guard, has asked the aid of the American Power Boat Association in recruiting pleasure craft for use as Government patrol boats to assist in the submarine menace, it was learned today.

The appeal was addressed to John A. Remon, president of the association, American motor boating’s governing and policy organi- zation.

i Admiral Waesche has asked the 4

co-operation of APBA in obtaining for immediate use, all vessels suit- able for patrol and observation work, including anti-submarine op- erations, along the East and Gulf coasts.

In reply, Remdh, a Washing- tonian, has issued a call to his mem-

I bership to aid in this vitally import- ! ant service.

The owner of every suitable vessel is urged to lend his boat to the serv- ice for Coast Guard Reserve duty, Admiral Waesche asserted. As to personnel, ability to operate a boat at sea and physical stamina to per- form duty are the only require- ments. Nor are there any age limits

j or specified physical standards. Men will be enrolled as tempor-

ary members of the Coast Guard Reserve, will be given full military status and will be permitted to serve on full or part time duty either with or without pay.

Coast Guard headquarters recent- ly issued new orders governing the Reserve in a move designed to per- mit maximum utilization of boats and their owners with the Navy’s sea frontier commands.

Perhaps the most significant de- Hni tAioiiijyt, icguiatiuiia the fact that a boat owner rieed not be a member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary nor possess a boat of his own in order to get on the anti- sub patrol. If otherwise qualified, he may be enrolled and placed aboard any craft on which he is will- ing to serve By the same taken, a

; person owning a boat suitable for service may offer it without accom-

t panying it as a crew member. Pour types of vessels are being

sought by the Coast Guard. They are fishing boats, small commercial craft, tugs and yachts, both power and sail. The last-named category, of course, is the biggest field upon which the service ha* drawn and hopes to continue to count on.

There are no hard and fast rules governing the types of yachts eli- gible for duty, although the follow-

i 1 ing general specifications have been outlined by headquarters. Boats

| must be power-operated, driven by | engines alone or by motor serving

as auxiliary. Definite limits on length are left up to procurement officers of the various naval districts.

I but all boats must be capable of op- erating in waters in which they are

M accepted and under average weather r | conditions. : I Accommodation* for 4 Needed.

The captain of the port here indi- , cated that boats over 40 feet long,

with accommodations for at least four men, are needed in this area,

j That office is also interested in sail-

a a a a

V

*-1 ing craft capable of going to aea for certain periods.

Speed in motorboats is an impor- tant factor, for yachts not always will be operating in smooth waters. Construction of hulls and decks are

deciding factors, too. as the mount- ing of guns requires a firm foun- dation.

All boats, whether accepted for patrol or actual combat duty, are

being fitted with two-way radio and machine guns. Larger craft are

being equipped with depth charge gear and other anti-submarine de- vices. according to a headquarters announcement.

Indian Landing Holds Curtailed Regatta On August 30 Spectil Dispatch to The Star.

COMMUNITY SPIRIT —By CROCKETT |

Potomac Sailors Go On Treasure Hunt In Novel Event

Something new in the sport of sail racing is in the offing for Po- tomac River Sailing Association

skippers Sunday when a fleet of boats will be sent off from Capital Yacht Club on a "treasure" hunt.

It’s the outgrowth of an idea cooked up by some of the local pen- guin sailors, including Fleet Captain Charley Runyon.

Standard equipment for a treas- ure hunt, says Capt. Runyon, an old treasure hunter from Barnegat Bay, is pencil and paper, a good look at the chart before starting out and a

knowledge of Potomac River land- marks.

Around 2 p.m. Sunday the skip- pers will be handed what treasure hunters call a clue. Maybe it will be a verse or maybe a (bad) pun. In any case, the hunter is supposed to see in it directions of where to go first.

When the skipper arrives at the first place, he’ll- find another clue containing a veiled hint of the next “mark.” This goes on for about four or five clues, until the “treas- ure” donated by the penguin fleet here is reached.

The clues over the course must be replaced by the skippers after they arrive at the place, so that others following can find them.

What the treasure 1s remains a

deep secret until Sunday afternoon. Nothing was said, either, about

the skipped who isn’t good at puns or poetry. Maybe he’ll spend the afternoon at the club bar and emerge the winner.

Blues in Lower Bay And Fall Prospects Are Held Bright

Here is an item that was printed in the Preston News of Caroline

County, Maryland, that should in- terest anglers here:

"We have received one of those rare annual letters from Capt. Evans from Smiths Island, 11 miles on the Chesapeake Capt. Ted has been over to Tylerton, where the sage of the Southwest Middles lives, and this is the annual forecast:

"Capt. Johnny Marshall, the man who discovered blue fishing, says. ‘This lower bay is full of small blues. The prospects are good for this Pall, and they should run in

sizes from 2 to 16 pounds.’ So, anglers, there you are.

"For the first time in six years since the 1935-36 run of giant blues. Capt. Johnny now prophesies that there will be big blues in the bay this year.

"This is exclusive, and anglers may take it for what it is worth, but you can almost bet on the sage of the Southwest Middles

American Handicap shoot at Van- dalia, Ohio, starting next Monday and running through August 28, will be donated to the Red Cross and the USO.

Outlook for Fishing in Potomac Gloomy; Solomons Still Affords Top Angling

The inquisitive bass fisherman might, find a stretch of the Potomac clear enough to dunk a live bait by Sunday, but. it is

doubtful. The Monocacy continues to pour a load of silt into the main river; Virginia creeks are doing likewise, and the Shenan-

doah. while having receded quickly from the flood stage of early tnis wee*, wiu require ■

other week, without rain, to be' fishable.

Other nearby bans water* are no better and hold little promise of clearing for days. So, for this week end, casters would do better to join the competitive casters on the Lin- coln Memorial reflecting pool. They at least will get in a little practice. Saturday afternoon from 2 to 5 and Sunday from 9 to 1 are the hours set by the National Capi- tal Casting Club. The score this week counts toward the Neptune, Room Trophy, too, and is the last chance to get in for the finals in mid-September.

Hagerstown Anglers Practical. So far as we know, the weight of

any fish, for prise or record, is j counted as it is taken, barring, of course, such extraneous items as

sounding leads and dipseys, but that isn’t the way bass fishermen count their catches up Hagerstown way. No, sir! Ihoee boys weigh’em first and then operate. If the prize in question has eaten too heartily before falling for dessert in the way of a plug, they discount the meal. At least some do and, therefore, have raised a question that bids fair to continue on and on.

It comes about through the 5- pound 1-ounce trout caught by J. C.

I Moore at Dam 5. We reported it as

I the top fish of the season more \ than a week back. At least the fish weighed that much after the initial ceremony. Later, when an undi- gested 13-ounce bass was taken from its innards, the count was only 4 pounds 4 ounces.

Now bass are noted for their can- nibalistic tendencies, and are known to bite off more than they can take, sometimes, but we have yet to see the angler that can get one fish in another without leaving traces of his perfidy. So, if there were nothing to indicate this was done, we believe the first weighing should be official. By expressing an opin- ion there is no wish to join in the controversy, and only to let them

jut around Ocean City. Md., there ias been no cause for complaint for, In spite of the restrictions, Ishermen are catching more and arger fish than they have since the nlet blew through in 1933. Accom- nodations aren't obtainable so

sasily, for unlike other small re- torts Ocean City is having a banner murist season, so make reservations n advance.

There is no doubt surf fishing will Time into its own now that sporfs- Ishlng boats are not allowed far iffshore. and tnere will not be near- ly enough rods available to supply those who will want to take It up for the duration.

An ordinary boat rod will not per- mit even an experienced caster to get any great distance from tha beach, but with a little looking, around to learn the sloughs and the close-In places where fish are

feeding any average fisherman soon

will„ be hooking enough to keep him happy. %

Better still is a bamboo pole whir guides and tip. but there is no art-1 surance that even th old fishing pole may be found in quantity larg# enough to supply the demand. From now on makeshifts in tackle will begin to appear everywhere, so wKF not on the beach, which is the ode area open to anglers from one end of the coast to the other during day- light hours. *

*.now mat many nsn on the record books today are counted as caught without any regard to their having eaten heartily. But in case this condition of the stomach is a con- dition of the contest then the whole thing is best forgotten. Even so, 414 pounds of bass is a lot of fish.

Solomons Still Best.

Solomons Island continues to af- ford the best Chesapeake Ashing within the boundaries of an A or B gasoline ration, but the Eastern Shore is productive, too. for those who can And skippers willing to run across.

Striper schools cavort regularly from one side of the wide mouth of the Choptank to the other and around Eastern Bay. There are, however, fewer blues in these schools but the stripers appear to average slightly larger than down below.

There are more King William perch in the upper bay than anglers have seen in many summers: not too small, either, and fun aplenty while waiting for the bass to sur- face.
