    THREE CUP DEFENDERS
U COMPLETION
Bristol Boat Will Be Pushed
Into the Water About
April 15 - •
Special to The Telegraph
Boston, Mass., March 23. Reports
from the New England shipyards that
y»re building the three aspirants for
the defense of the America's cup
against the fourth Lipton invasion next
Fall show the Bristol yacht to be 75
per cent., the Bath yacht 50 per cent,
and the Neponset yacht 33 per cent,
completed.
The launching of the Bristol boat,
under construction for six present and
former Hag' officers of the New York
Yacht Club, lias been lixed for the
week of April, and will probably be on
April 17. This yacht is said to be
fully planked and decked in, so that It
could go overboard at any time. The
planking ts of metal. The deck is
aluminum, coverewd ith canvas and
cork. Foremast hands on cup defend
ers obey orders on the run and any
surface that will insure a footing on
deck is welcome.
The Defiance, which a syndicate of
Boston, New York and Philadelphia:
yachtsmen is building at Bath, is be- j
Ing planked with great care by expert
handlers. She is expected to go over- j
board during the week of May 10, j
With May 12 as a tentative date.
Although it was announced recently i
that the yacht building at Neponset j
for A. S. Cochran, of New York, would ;
probaly be launched about April 25,
it is now thought that this boat will j
lie the last uf the trio to go into the |
water.
The three yachts will have more
than eleven weeks In which to demon
strate their individual claims to thb
honor of defending the cup against
the Shamrock IY. The preliminary '
racing season will be the hardest that
aspiring cup defenders have ever had,
with races every few days from June 2
to August 22.
This spring you can find
in our boys' department
the cream of the best New
York ideas for juvenile
dress.
. All the innovations in
style of colors, pockets,
belts, cuffs and pleats.
All the novel cloths, pat
terns, models and weaves
are now waiting for your
approval.
