IRIDGE BOATS WIN
RACES AT CLAIBORNE
ie list of starters was not as

bay and were unable to make

I ir captains and crew were disap.

irtsm’anship by remaining on the
ne as near the finisn line as they
lid get and cheering the winners
they come in. Others were so far
wn that they turned back and
?nt home when they found there
is no chance for them even to get
the finish.
With ropes taut and canvas

Stmd Unexpected
Hal The start of the races came un-
so far as the crowds were
They were caught ure-
HR'are, as it were. The Hat calm and
postponement flag,”,” which flew
W, from the mast of the regatta com
f /mittee boat from 10.30 A. M., the
’ hour the races were supposed to be
gin, led them to believe that the con
tests had been postponed indefinite
ly.
By 12.45 o’clock the bieeze had
quickened. It was apparen tiiat the
J start of the first race could be made
j within a very short time.
The regatta committee held i hur
ried conference and a. : he brheze con
rtinuqfl to freshmen with _ach minute
a decision to start was quickly ar
rived at. The warning gun boomed
. and the bugeyes hoisted sail and pre
f pared to get under way.
Ten minutes later the preparatory
gun boomed across the water and the
boats began jockeying for places.
The Emma A. Faulkner, Capt. (J. S.
Leonard, of Cambridge, was the first
of the four craft to file away across
the line. The Edith Marcy, Gapt.
Richard Chesser, of St. Georges is
land, was second over with the Lot
tie Thomas, Capt. Harry Branniga:/
River Springs, third, and the Leroy
Woodbourne, Capt. Harry N. Wood
bourne, Solomon’s Island, last. The
Faulkner, was showing the way as
long as she could be distinguished.
The starting gun of the first race
was the 5 minute warning gun for
the second contest between the skip
jacks, which began jockeying tor
the start.
Scores of the spectator boats
which had sought harbor when a
squall seemed imminent were back
at their berths by the time the skip
jacks were sent accross. - The two
bugeye classes had been thrown into
one and as two open skipjacks had
journeyed all the Way from Tangier
Sound under the misapprehension
that they could enter the regular
skipjack race, it was decided to have
a special race for the two boats, the
an4_the Esthjr V*.
Seven boats in the skipjack class
—the Geneva May, Capt. William J.
Horstman, Wenona; the Agnes. Capt.
Arlie P. Baker, Cambridge; the Re
becca T. Roark, Capt. W. A. Cook,
Cambridge; the George W. Abbott,
Capt. J. L. Murphy, Tilghman’s; the
A. W. Phillips, Capt. A. B. Hadda
way, Tilghman’s; the Raymond S-.
Capt. C. O. Cummins, Tilghman’s,
and the Elsie, Capt. Charles F.
Coubourne, Oxfoi’d —wei - e well lined
up when the starting gun crashed
over the water; They had anchored
near the starting line, lightening
their sheets only a moment before
the time for the starting gun.
It was a pretty start. the boats
being apparently almost on a line and
continued neck and neck until well
down toward Poplar Island, the lo
cation of the first turning buoy,
marking the end of the first leg.
The canoes were the next to start
and their race furnished the real
thrills of the contest.
Thousands of people wex - e in Clai
borne for the races. They came from
all sections of the Eastern Shore in
automobiles and horse-drawn ve
hicles. The town had the appear
ance of ,a great carnival, with all
sorts of stands spread out in every
direction.
Huhdx-eds of persons came down
from Baltimore as early as 4 o’clock
ou the ferry. Automobiles filled alt 1

front.
■ Ashore, in and about the little
1 community that had been pursuing
; the even tenor of its way for gene
rations prevailed an atmosphere ot
festivity that was thrilling the old
timers beyond words. You couldn't
begin to persuade Claiborne that it
was not the most important spot in
all of Maryland on this the second
day of July 1921. And Claiborne
was probably right, as it was the
Mecca for thousands of people haii
from all sections of this State and
from some sections of neighboring
1 comonwealths. The spirting contin
1 gent which clings to the belief that
the sail boat is the premier of rac
ing water craft was having its day.
Pavilions Along Shore
Along the shores of Eastern Bay,
overlooking the water course, had (
sprang up, seemingly over night, a
mushroom growth of pavilions over
which the enticing odor of "liat
dogs” and steaming coffee beckoned
the inner man. Here was a booth
with counters bearing mountains ot
popcorn; there a snowy oil-cloth,
‘‘soft drink bar;” behind wntch
were ranged tub after tub of ice
packed bottles that contain every
thing but the old-time “kick.” Here
was tlxe ‘‘peanut man;” there the
“souvenir man,” and so on down the
list, of the hundred and one "attrac
tions” that are bound to spring "up
where great throngs of pleasure
seeking persons ax - e expected to coli
gregate.
All Roads Lead There
String after string of dust-laiden
automobiles, farm wagons and carts
swung from the main highway and
park in the 10 acre lot set aside for
the purpose, discharging their load
of mothers, dads, and kids, who joy
fully lugged great lunch baskets, to
the shade of trees along the shore.
Jitneys' scurried about like rabbits,
discharging their loads of human
freight and rushing back along the
highway to St. Michael’s, to Royal
Oak. to Easton, or down “the Island
toad” to Tilghmans to hurry waiting
crowds to Claiborne. A train pull
ed puffing into the station, adding its
hundreds from Ocean City, Salisbury,
Denton and other points along the
line. One wondered whence all this
jolly- carefree multitude came.
Looking seaward again, close at
hand and on a line with a red buoy
directly off the breakwater, was re
cognized the Holly, one of Mary
land's oyster navy craft. She was
the regatta committee boat. Hard
bv, swinging at anchor, was a gaily
bedecked craft with "Governor Mc.
Lane” painted on her bow. The
Cheyenne was easily distinguished -at
anchor with the natty-loeking' fig-’
ures of Maryland’s .Naval .Militia
moving gingerly about. The_ tug
Baltimore lay close by. ' •
CAMBRIDGE THE WINNER
OF TWO GAMES YESTERDAY
Cambridge won the morning game
of ball in the first inning when Ku
ark went to fii-st on an error,Rob
inson of High School fame singled,
Melvin xvent to first on Miles error
filling the bases. Moore the star
player of East New Market, came up
looking like a second “Babe” and
didn’t deny his looks for he sure did
slap the old pill for a long journey,
the pill cleared center field fence and
everybody romped home. Eiseuberg
hit to second, but out on fii-st. Big
“Joe” Robbins singled in center,
Bradshaw put him on second, but it
seemed as if we had enough, so Todd
flflyfleflfldflflflflflfl HT HT HT HTTH
flyed out, and “Mike” Cantwmi did
not want to exert
so he out.
ington made a
score but failed.
Schroll their BPner settled down a
after the first inning and held Cam
bridge down to one more run which
came in the fifth when Robbins hit
scoi'ed Eisenberg.
Mt. Washington scored twice in
the second when Ness hit, Cox walk
ed, and Schroll hit to center scoring ;
Ness and Cox.
“Mike” Cantwell beloved by all 1
fans pitched air tight ball the entire i
game, allowing seven hits and pass
ing one man. Todd caught a fine
game allowing only one stolen base. ,
Moore the sensation of the game <
played an errorless game on thii'd, j
besides gathering a homer and a ,
single.

Afternoon flame
Cambridge wins the afternoon
game from Mt. Washington by the
score of 11 to 4. Cambridge started
in the first inning when Robinson
singled stole second and scored on
Melvin’s hit to center. Cambridge
scored twice in the fourth and also
in the fifth. In the sixth the batting
feast started and finally when "Bob
by” Owings was forced to retire
they had piled up six more tallies.
Mt. Washington came back in the
seventh when she gathered two runs
of an error and Moison’s hit.
Clayton pitched, a good. game al
lowing only five hits, holding the
visitors at all times. Robinson
scoiit*V a three bagger and a single
out of .the chances at bat.
The game was unusually slow and
one which failed to secure the in
terest of the spectators. But still it
will take a mighty good team to win
from an all star iiorchester county
team.
