The team from Massachusetts, represented by Armoret. Tltnandra and Maurvour-nren, were successful in defeating the New York representative. it Is very gratifying to note that the greatlv Increased number of rtarters In Atlantic Yacht Hub races during Win contained a larger percentage of Atlantic Yacht club entries than in former years. Of the 3S starters, 12; were entries from the Atlantic Vaeht Club: thlf fact In itself is very encouraging. Another interesting report waa tho one-read by Walter Sykes.

who for the latter part of the season held the thankless position of chairman nf (he house committee. In part Mr. Sykes Raid: Prom a technical standpoint the results this year have been about the same as last. There was a gain of some 5.0(0 In receipts, but Ibis la all well explained by the Increase In subscriptions to th regatta and entertainment ccrimtttee. The ms on restaurant this year was very much less than that, of lap year, which fact Is explalnei by the Increased oharuo of 2r cents for tHble d'hote meals, hut once more tnia is onset by tho fncrcasi'd coat of boarding the employes.

The unusual expenditures of last vear w-re for the new dock and float and for tho enlargement locker facilities. The house Is in good condition antl as far as we know at this time will require very little money spent on It dur'ng the coming season. Tho board pf trustees has two to- three Improvements under consideration which, wnlle they will noi necessitate a large outlay of monev. In my opinion, they will help materially towatd tlio proper servke e.f the club members. Should the popularity of our club Increase In proportion to our wish, we shall rapiillv outgrew all faelftlcs which we can now offer unil large improvements will be in order, es-pclally for restaurant servlre, but.

for next year I would strongly advise reti-encbnicnt In every way where It Is not at the expense of good service and It should be the aim us all to have the club out of debt at the end of the aeasun and, personally, I see no reason why inn. result enould not Be accomplished, bin It win surely need the hearty co-operaiion of every men.hor 1 I rlitrinff Wheeler has beau vice president during 'ast two vearu The nominations tor ecret.ry and." rca.urer the ma Tn adHIHrtn i Io0 Vlttoria rjJLCi, lucre was no ueeua- jn addition to the reports, speeches' were made by many of the member t. tU' for a vot0' Tn0 "je011" called Bartow S.

At Unit hour and tor some ttn.trj, uut upuu one occasion uurumo flore Barnard was fined $260 for ob structlng traffic, and be then went, to the anchorage of the New York Yacht Club, off the foot of East Twenty-third xtreet, Manhattan.

Here his captain agaif got Into trouble with the government, uiirt once more tho commodore had to pay tho piper. It was then that the yachtsman decided to try Sea Gate, and flndlng both an excellent and a convenient anchorage Plillllsiifil; Commodore W. H. Barnard. off the Atlantic Y'acbt Club, Commodore Barnard dropped the mud hooks of the Sagnmoro off Norton's and since then he has bad no destre to find another homo port for his handsome craft.

This year Sagamore will be Been even more than ever off Sea Gate, as she will le the flagship of the club. It is not the first time that tho craft has flown the blue flag. At one time she was the nagsnip of the New York Yacht Club. The boat then was under charter to Commodore J. Plerpont Morgan.

The election of officers was only a perfunctory affair, as there was no opposition to the regular ticket. The first official act of the new commodore was to appoint a regatta committee. Dr. J. B.

DeMund was named as chairman and Walter Sykes was appointed his assistant. H. K. Boucher, the former chairman, who has served for two years, refused a renomination. He, will act in an ex-offlclo capacity on the board The usual reports were rend, and they showed that tbo club was In excellent condition.

It was announced at the Public Schools Athletic League yesterday that 800 elementary schoolboys would compete ln the annual indoor championships at the For ty-seventh Kegiment Armory next Satur (lav aflern00n. Although this Is a large number of athletes to compete at one mm it does jtot compare with the entry I'cr nf ffi on naarg Thlo (a Vinrianaa thn down and has restricted tho boys to fewer contests. It Is not because the league docs not want the youngsters to is" ui-iirmo wmi. nu ut uepnveu uaai the variniia fields nf enmnoritinn at a that has set a limlt but be many contestants would make ihe championships difficult to handle. All during the year the P.

S. A. L. is conducting competitions in many forma among all the pupils. Saturday's programme is divided into four classes, and events appropriate to each class are to be decided.

Track squads of Manual Training and Boys High are busy training at the local armories. The Seventh avenue lads have the use of tho Fourteenth Regiment, while the Maroy avenue representatives do their practicing at the Thirteenth. Frank N. Riley, a former Boys High School athlete, was elected captain of the Irish-American A. C.

track team. Besides being a member of the Irish American A. C. and one of the four-mile relay team NEWS OF THE Members of the Automobile Club of America are manifesting great interest In tho plan to have the grade crossings on Thomson avenue on the Long Island Railroad removed. Tho organisation has haS Its commltteo on streets correspondence with the several officials on the raetter.

ad it is quite probable that a decision will be reached on the matter within a short time. In fact, It would not be surprising If something definite was done about tho matter this weelt, for, when some of tho residents of Jamaica learned what It was proposed to do. they got out an injunction, and this will be thrashed out ln court on Thursday. It Is evident that the motorists who are fighting tho delays at the avenue mentioned expect to win thcta cases, for it is pointed out that the delays that are caused sometimes extend as long as twenty or thirty minutes, all of which Is very vexatious. The city and the rail road company have gotten together on the proposition to eltminate the crossings on Thomsou avenue, of which Ibere are two, but the taxpayers of Jamaica do not want the money spent.

Tho confidence of tho older aud more stable automobile manufacturers In the continued prosperity and certain growth tho industry Is evidenced in tho announcement by the Thomas B. Jeffery Company of the completion of a new giant electrical plant for the Rambler factory. Tbe new engine room covers 6.000 square feet, and tho equipment has been' so installed that even Its great capacity may be doubled at. any time. There are four power uults.

Including a power Cross compound non-condotistng alternator, with three oibcr units of 500. 125 and 100-horsc power each. Records of speedway racing in this country for 1910, compiled by C. G. Sindiibatigli in Motor Age, show that Flat cars started ln forty-three different races run on tho Los Angeles.

Atlanta and In- Custom JiriWMMMIM I Me-raanl'tlts Association i ached- tiled to take at Sherry's, and as this is the only big aftair of its kind In tho Ncw vork this year, it 1b likely i to be well afTrtj goiters an oppjr.unity to talk over both sectional and i.ional golfing matters, and will also c'Jnw them to lay tneir plans lor the With the interest created by the applications lor i ho national amateur and open championships and the tangle in the Western Asjarialion, the affairs of the peaceful n'dropolitan association have almost crowded out o( sight. The fact must nut be lost slgnt of that there are sut events as a metropolitan amate ir and ipca championship. These will liteiv he considered to-night and courts for both. In recent i the hahit to leave the iauor to take u'e of itself for a few months. This, wevor.

Is 10 i change! this 'ear. tor the "open" is beginning to be sought after by the clubs. The election tbe new ticket is, oi course, the mast, important business on hand, and in connection with this there is more than a little local interest, for a L'rcoklyn man, James L. Taylor, is down for election for vice president. Mr.

Taylor bas been a member oi tne ecutivc. committee since 1M08. For the office nf Frederick S. Wheeler tne nominaiiou. Mr.

Ar ntvam a IS last vear, whil 2 inclusion oi k- Knnpp In the place of James L. iaior Is tbe only chanB-o in the executive com- "in "addition to the amateur and open championship tournaments, which were won Fred and Alex Smith, respectively, club tournaments have been held ortder the auspices of tne association tne year. Of these Walter J. Travis had -suite his share, tor he won no fewor than six cups for the match play In fl-st divisions, while be also captured tl. Sow score medal oo at least three different occasions.

In only one will the meeting tonight differ those that have gone before. There will be no Lesley Cup to have a peer at as in previuuo trophy having the first time TENNIS SOLONS TO MEET HERE NEXT WEEK From its midwinter sleep, the tennis world now wakcB up for a few days to perform the annual dutieB In connection with tbe executive handling of the sport In this country. Little bas Been beard of tho inner workings of late, but it Is hinted that the meeting of the exOc- utive committee, scheduled for next week, will be a very interesting affair. The committee on ranking bas been having trouble of its own in deciding Just who shall be placed in third position this year, for both Beals Wright and Maurice McLoughlin nave claims uu mo Each one scored a victory over iu other, and in other ways their perform- ances were equalized. No one in a posl- inn will venture an opinion as to which man will finally get ine place.

after William A. Lamed ana iuoiu Bundy have been take care of in first at.d secoud positions. Other rumors are to tbe effect that the West will again make a fight in the national association. The contingent from the Paciflo coast will demand recognition ot its stars in the ranking; never before accorded, because of lack of data and chance to size up the best players. Tbe visitors from tho other sido ot the country will claim that Bundy and McLoughlin are only two of a long list ot stars who play as well.

If not better, than many Easterners, highly ranked. The biggest bone of contention, however, will come ln tho declaration that the national association assume the responsibility of placing the clay court players and further the game. Tho announcement from Great Britain that a series with the United States would be welcomed, will have to be taken up, and it appears quite likely that a match may be made. England feels piqued over the refusal of Australia to guarantee $2,000 for an English Invasion for tbe Davis Cup. The Aatlpodeans last summer received word that Great Britain would send a team to play for the Davis Cup.

but when the list of the British players was submitted, Australia declined guarantee unless a far stronger team was sent than bad been chosen. England, havine experienced much trouble in se curing anyone at all, felt the eting of rebuke, and cut off all communication. Whether the latest move means that England is still angry and will refuse to play Australia remains to be seen. Dr. Jamea Dwight, president of tho United States Lawn Tennis Association, yesterday declared tbo challenge for a match would bo considered in the regular way, and It will probably come up for disciiFsion at next week's meeting of the executive committee.

The answer tho. challenge, however, cannot be mado until the annual meeting next February. AUTOMOBILES. If You Desire to Exchange Jour Preent t'nr for a mil Model CHALMERS or HUDSON CAR It Will lie to Vonr Arivatiln.Ec to otiiinuiilenle Willi Me. A I.

When Herbert Barker, the Garden City professional, galloped off with tho first money at the tournament of the Atlanta ai meiit just, wcck, nc acnieved mc itor which ho nan been strugglinc for jqlllte a lnng tm0 Wli tb prof a representative tournament. Barker is a piayer mat win never dc tar away iron: the top at any Ilia one regret, however, was that although be seldom missed getting into the money at auy of tho big tournaments, be never seemed to be abi'o lo quite turn the trick. The Atlanta tournament ran not be taken as an Indication that Barker has yet arrived in the sense that be hopes to di some day, for there was only a sprinkling of the leading pros present, but his golf was such that It leaves no doubt thai tho former Yorkshire amateur champion has got. the game.

According to Jlra Maiden, tho Nassau Country Club professional, who was formerly at A'lanta, fi!) for tbo course of tin Athletic Club Is certainly playing sont golf. Maiden was in the Georgia capital for a few years, antl although he has done many fine rounds at Nassau and captured the Kastern title this year, ncier quite got into the stride that, brought Parker bi.i record do. South. Barker, like many of tbe others, has an. unfortunate habit of getting out of form when the big tournaments are coming No better evidence of this could hava been bad than at the Eastern professionals tournaments at Salisbury when, after playing up to the highest notch in the practice games, he cracked up aud felled to qualify for the fim division.

Later he just escaped defeat in the second Bet by winning one of his matches on tne nineteenth green. Chicago, December 1.1 Aside from tho fact that opposing tactions of the Western Golf Association will battle over the legality of jhe present ticket which is up for election, there will be other brues of contention for those belligerently inclined. Many amendments to the laws of the organization are desired and it Ik considered probable there will be complaints against some of them. One of the amendments which will bo brought up at the annual meeting on Jan. will cover the matter of nominations.

Former President C. F. Thompson wants it made Imperative that nominations bo In tbe haiids of the secretary by a certain time or be declared void. Another change, if carried, will prevent any man under the age ot 25 years having part in the affairs of the association. It will also be asked that any five members of the association regardless ot whether they belong to Ihe same or different clubs, be allowed to put an Independent ticket in tbe field and that It put Into the laws that officers must belong to a club which is a member of the association, the latter never baviug been done, altbougn tbe rule bas been kept.

The question of creating a new national organization, it is expected, will also be before tho meeting, having beer, left over from last year. HbllCaaUrilCj Bedford av. phone 4iI6 feed. AUBURN oaragb cuT HUUUlim 6trl-6iili ilalsey st; 4U-U. Aliloa rented Phone 2841 Bed.

Ono of the handiest little patents placed on tho market ln the motor car accessory line is a watcbholder which can be attached to the steering wheel of the auto. Driving a car is necessarily a careful Job and it is one that requires the bands to be free at all times. Tbe new invention relieves tbo driver from the necessity of putting his hand in his pocket to get out the timepiece, for with a watch In front of him there is no need of employing the hands otherwise than on tho wheel. Tbe useful little holder is simpie and convenient, and It can be adjusted to accommodate flitrcrent sizes of watches almost Instantly. The taking out or putting in of tho watch requires only a very few seconds, and might be seconds that would later bo cutiBiuerea wen spent.

At tne same time there Is no chance for the time piece to jar or fall out, as It is curely fastened to tho steering wheel oi mo auto. dianapolis specially built motor car racetracks.

For Borne time the Canadian magnate has been after the Bcalp Powers. He stuck at It persistently, and all through the sce-son ho has been working quietly to accomplish the deposition of Powers. Wilh Ed Barrow as a candidate, he visited every city on tbo Eastern League circuit, and a little Judicious Inquiry disclosed the fact that thero nete live clubs that would line up against Powers when It came to a how-down.

Then came a recess, and Powers was notified that he was eposed.

It was aone in hurry, and still there was little fuss about It. It mused a rloplo of excitement In the well-thronged corridors of the hotel, but was fiin.lly ratillei when tbo clubs were all present. President Barrow announced that the offices of tho league would be continued in New York.
