Sandy Hook, N. J.. July 20. The
fifth international yacht race, which
will determine the fate of the America's
Cup. was postponed todnv nt 11 :.10
o'clock for fifteen-minute intervals.
Wind conditions made postponement
nccessar.v .' for the cup Rloops, saunter
ing around the Ambrose channel light
ship shortly before the time set for the
start, found not enough wind to waft
them over their thirtv-milo windward
and leeward course within the six -hour
time limit.
Off the lightship the racers found a
grensv sea and seemed to slide rather
tint it 'sail over the smooth water which
was scarcely ruffled by gentle airs from
the vat. In trying out her sails Sham

Sir Thomas's Record '
m Quest or Cup
Hegardless of tjie outcome of to
day's rucp, this lias been the banner
year for Sir Thomas Idpton in his
quest for the America's Cup. Not
once. In his three previous nttempts
to lift the trophy, has his challenger
been nblc even to get "n leg up" on
It. The record follows:
1800 The Columbln, America'
yncht, won all three' races from
Shninrock I.
1001 Hhnmbrock II beaten again
by Columbln in all three. Although
the challenger was fasterthe mnny
element-" of maritime luck were
ngalnst him.
1003 Hhu'mrock III went to Its
defeat In every race in the contest
with the Hellance.
1020 Shamrock" IV hns won two
races, bo lias Kesolute. Today's
contest Is the deciding one.
Hlr Thomas Linton fail to win to
day's race and Iokc the cup, the Irish
baronet enter the challenger in n series
of races with Ilesolute and Vanltle

fered by lenl yncht clubs.
It also has been suggested that all
three yachts be sailed bv nrnfrxslnnnl
skippers. These contests would give
the sloons a further test of miccil ami
Milling qualities. Some membera of the
New xoric ineni uiub nre said to be
still of the opinion that Vanltle, which
fniled of selection for the tionor of de
fending the cup, is the fastest of the cup
yachts.
Hlr Thomas is sail to hnve unenl

Resolute Plans
Foiled by Burton
Continued from Toko One
astern, shut off her wind and then scoot
into n good lead.
Itcsolute Ported nt Start
After the boats got ncross, Ilesolute
becan to nttemnt lust this. What she
wanted wns an overlap. She drew ever
nearer the Shamrock s stem. But
Skipper Burton foiled her efforts to
pnss her by luffine out of the defender.
Thus, for more thnn fifteen minutes we
snw the two yachts lighting out their
luffing match which cnrrled them well
to the northward instead of on their
course.
In the course of this luffing match
splnnnkers were not tiling out, probably
because the wind did not have enough
of a northward slant to use spinnakers
to any advantage. It was expected,
however, that when thev squared away
on their course they might get an op
portunity to use the mnmmntji kite..
At nil events the spinnaker poles had
been tnken in. Not more than two
lengths Hepnrnted the sloops.
At 1 :10 the siuule stickers were srin
holding in toward the shore, ptissliiA
the Scotland llghtt-hlp at that time.
Besolute wns still close aboard'-and
threatening to make trouble when the
sloops squared away on their course. It
wns seen as the racers drew near the
shore that the attendintf fleet had not
fulfilled promise as to size, there being
about fifty boats by actual count, in
cluding navy vessels. Among them were
the Plvmouth. Corsair. Victoria, Olrnl-
da. schooner yncht Snellen, seiiooner

suit immediately nfter Besolute. The
yachts which had been doing little more
'than drifting, seemed to move better on
their new course.
Sounred away on their courses.
Resolute showed her light weather
ability by passing ahead of (he Sham

matter of fifty feet, however

SIX more of Philadelphia's own ath

class of America, nnd by virtue of their
hard-earned victories on the waters of
Lake Qulnslgnmond. Worcester, Mors.,
hnve -heen selected to represent the
United States In the Antwerp Olym
piad. These bronzed young men who hnve
spread the fame of Philadelphia's boat
house row around the country are:
Jaclt Kelly, Vesper Olnb, winner of
the national senior sculls rh.impIon.shlp
and Joint winner of the doubles title.
Paul Costello, Vesper Hub, Joint
winner with Kelly In double-sculling
championship race.
Erich ami Fran Kederschmldt, Kent

senior fonr-oaml championship.
With theso six. Philndclnhln now linn
nineteen representatives in the Antwerp
games to sport the Stars and Stripes
In competition against the nations of
the world. Three nre track and field
athletes, three boxers, two swimmers
and tliree ienccrs, on wrestler and one
trnpshooter.
Tliree Lcavo Today
Harold Barron, Allan Woodrine nnd
Larry Shields, all of the Mcndowbrook
Club, leave today on the steamship
Princess Mntorkn. Elaborate ceremonies
will accompany their departure with the
rest of the track nnd field athletes.
The showing of the local oarsmen at
Worcester was far beyond the most
optimistic hopes of their followers. The
victory of .Tack Kelly and his cousin,
Costejlo, of course, wns expected in the
doubles, nnd the triumph of Kelly in the
singles was n foregone conclusion before
the scullers went to the starting line,
but the splendid rowing of the Pcnn
llnrge four was a complete and over
whelming surprise.
When the Pcnn nunrtet caotured the
international race on Friday great was
the applause thereafter along boat
house row. It was too much to hope
that they would come through on Sat
urday, but they not only won but
won handily. They trimmed the famed
Century Club, the 1010 title winners,
by four lengtns, doing uto mue nnu a
quarter, which Incidentally was the dis
tance of all the races, as it Is near the
2000-meter Olympic distance. In 7:14.
Final Spurt Wins
Louis Zahn, the New Yoik sculler,
did not worry Kelly to anv great extent
in the singles, but he hnd more trouble
!u winning the doubles event. The Ves

The trlumnhont Philadelphia oarH-

and were given a royal welcome nlong

At the Hotel Itancroft, Worcester.
Saturday night, Mayor Sullivan, of
Worcester, usslstcd by Gustav Kirby,
presented the medals and Olympic cre
dentials to the lucky oarsmen. Later
a 'government official had them sign
their passports for Antwerp. The mem-
bers of the Navy crew also signed the
papers here, and now everybody is set
for the trip.
Pennsylvania Itnrgo also hns the right
to take two substitutes, and Sidney
Mollnrd and Carl Schubert will imike
the trip. Sam Hunter, the regular cox
swain of the gig, will steer the four,
and Percy Wall, who informally helped
to coach the crew, also Is going along.
B. I. Graves, Jr., captain of the
Navy eight, in accepting his trophy,
let It he known iu u breezy speech tlint
the Middies will represent America at
Antwerp, nnd not the Nnvy.
"We will row our hardest over

Ball Falls Safely
Merkle. the lead -off man, hoisted the
apple into the chilling breezes which
wafted off Lake Michigan. Messrs.
Blxey, Paillette and wheat gathered
about ond took n vote as to who should
tackle the sphere. As the ballots wire
counted the ball still wns going up.
The vote appeared to be two to one in
favor of Paillette. By this time the
ball had commenced to descend. Mr.
Pnulctte organized himself as a com
mittee of one to make the catch, having
been officially notified of the nomina
tion. The high winds grew in volume as
the altitude of tho horsehlde dimlnlsted

Merkle on second bnse from whence he
tallied on Deal'H single.

You Could Prove
' it Yourself
If you could take the time to analyze
and thoroughly test all motor oils,
your final choice would be Atlantic.
You would prove conclusively that it
was the best lubricant for your car.
ATLANTIC
MOTOR OILS
have been tested by the manufacturer In every
make of car. These tests showed that the
regular use of Atlantic practically eliminated
scored cylinders, worn bearings, and gummed
parts. Ask for Atlantic Polarlne or Atlantic
Medium.

Bewhlskerod Ball Team Meets
Bacharach Giants at Shibe ''
Park Today
The barbers of Philadelphia havo a
great chance for revenge today. They
can go out to Shibe Pork this afternoon
and root in their highest key for the
Bnehorach Giants. The reason for tbkt
is that this negro team from Atlantic
City mentH the greatest collection of
whiskers ever seen in our well-known
republic.
The whiskers belong to the members of
the House of David baseball team. These
boys hove never made the acquaintance
of a barber, shears or a safety razor.
They let their hoy grow wild. They
even conch it in Its growing caper,
Each one vies with the other to hare
tnc longest set ot whiskers In the com
inunity. They nre a religious sect from
Benton Harbor, Mich,, nnd clause A of
V'ticle I snys: "Lay off barbers for
life.','
Were It not for the fact that the
House , of David players are clean,
sturdy and manly, they might be mis'
tnken for the senior class ot some Bol
shevist prison.
But those bewliiskered guys sure can
piny ball. Some of them would get
trinls in the big leagues were It 'not tor
the whiskers. They will mako tlielr
first appearance on record in Philadel

famous band along with them.
