Trivia Wins At Torquay Regatta
TOMAHAWK LOSES
AFTER LEADING: PRETTY YACHTING
By Mujer H. HECKSTALL-SMITH
Torquay, Aug. 22.
Torbay was the scene of some very pretty yacht racing to-day, and the triangular course for the ; larger yachts afforded plenty of opportunity for skill and judg- ment on the part of helmsmen, but like most racing days in light breezes and hot summer weather, luck and chance played an im- portant part in the proceedings.

Trive won the 13-metre vive from Mr. Sopwith. Tomahawk by 7min. 575ev., and his boat sailed very well. In mid-sena Me, MueAnhey made 1 alterations in Trivia with a view to making her art extentially light- weather best, and I think be Tax succeeded.

Al 11 o'clock there was a flat calm hat half an hour later lht breeze had filled in from the pleasant south-east, which lasted throughout the day. This gave a turn to wind- ward to the märk-boat in mid-bay. and a free wind upon the other two legs of the course.
BLUE MARLIN RECALLED Blue Marlin was over the line at the start, and after being recalled never recovered her position. Toma- hawk, making the best stort, led the fleet for two rounds, having a close contest with Evaine and Trivia in the early stages of the race. In the
round Trivia was not only well sail- ed, but had a useful lift ând secured a commanding lead, while Jenetta closed up sufficiently to cause Toma- hawk some anxiety.

It's really four-handed Contract Bridge-only it's played by one person!
The player bids, buys the hand, play his cards just as in a regular game. But he's got to play perfectly-or he's automatically stopped short and corrected.
