Both boys went to it with a will every minute they were in there and at times it ap- peared as if they were staging a grudge fight so torrid was the bat.- tling.

But she was no match for the great sall-rariying defender which es- tablished two records for cup competition iii the race over a lltl-niile tri- angular course. ‘sms course RECORD Ranger was forced to the limit to sad the Clo-mile course in three hours, seven minutes and 49 sec- ondo. to better thc previous record of 3:09:01 by Endeavour I in her second win over Rainbow in 1934. Despite a poor start Sopwiths boat only trailed Ranger by three min- lites. 37 seconds. the slightest mar- gin of the series. In addition to the new course standard. the American s.oop set a new mark for the IO-mllc wind- ward leg. Her elapsed time for the beat was 1:17:46. displacing the for- Eiideavour I in the some race she scored the previous course record. Vanderbli, for the first time in the series had a clear margin over the pipe-smoking Briton at the start. He camped on the challen- gers tail in the preliminary jockey- ing and hung on like a bull terrier. Sopwith. a trifle anxious. headed for the line on the starboard tack a fraction too close. SOPWITII. CALLED BACK Ranger immediately followed suit but he was :n a position where he could bear away‘ if need be while; Sopwith. with the whistler at thcl far end of his lee bow was handi- capped. He crossed a hair's breadth ahead of the starting signal and was called back. By the time he gybeil over and came out on t.he starboard tack to re-cross Ranger was almost a quarter of a mile in front. Iii turning back Sopwithls second i bill for the “old mug" which United i States has held since 1851. the 54W year-old seaman made history. Hc 1s the first amateur yachlsman to defend successfully the interna- ticiial trophy three times. l Vanderbilt ivas at the helm of. Rainbow when she defeated the Endeavour in four straight races in lull-l after dropping the first. two starts. and also took four in a row from the late Sir Thomas Liptons last Shamrock in 1930. The course sailed today provided a windward thresh to the first mark l0 miles due southwest of the committee boat. whistler start- ing line. a reach of 10 miles east by south to the second mark and a. broad reach north by west of l0 miles to the finish line. SAIL-HANDLING DUEL After his poor start Sopwlth came about on the port tack to get his wind clear and was immedi- atcly followed by Vanderbilt. 'I'h_c Briton repeated his tactics of pre- vious threshcs to windward. Pziting his English sailors against their Swedish rivals in a contest of sail- liiiildllng. the British tars worked faultlessly. l1 was doubtful it Sopwith gain- ed much as a result of the duel.
