With a stiff breeze blowing in the Charlottetown Harbour yes- terday morning, many sails billow- ed as the 1947 Annual Regatta of the Northutnberland Straits Yacht Racing A550Ciat1un gc-t under way in the first of a taro-day meet.

Kcen competition being the key-

note throughout the day. many sail-boa‘. enthligiasifl. both ashore rind afloat, witnessed some fine

racing as many Maritlsrze yachts- men displayed skillful boat-hand- ling.

Although there were no serious mishaps. the crews of one local boat anti one Sail-i John entry, took a good dunking in the "brine" when their boats keeled c/ver piittmg about on a tack, while a third craft from Plctc-u had to be toured 1h after slie broke a side- rtay. out oh all occasions, rescue boats were on the scene immnd- iztely. to take charge of the situa- lion.

With about five entries from Shcdlac. N.B., and two from Surn- merside arriving about 6:30 last evening. on the C.G.S. Brant for

today's racing, tlie i-ornpetlton should be even keener than it was yesterday.
