Bundled in sheepskins, mackinaws and fur-lined boots, owners and skippers assembled there last week with 40 racing boats. The ice was bumpy, the winds weak, but they cut their five-day program to two days and made the best of it. Boats are classified by sail areas. Smaller boats may race in classes for larger boats. Winner in Class A (350 sq. ft. of sail) was The Fritz, a $2,000 craft, holder of the trophy donated by William Randolph Hearst in 1904, owned by Fred Jungbluth of Madison, Wis., piloted by Carl Bernard. Its best speed over...

They have defeated Rindge Tech 8-1; but Rindge had had almost no practice, and the 7-1 victory over a good Belmont Hill team wasn't half as impressive as it sounds. Handicapped by a weak goalie, the schoolboy six was otherwise about on a par with Hodder's men following the opening period. Although they are scheduled to meet Andover and Exeter this week, no real test will be forthcoming, for Belmont Hill is probably as good as any prep school team this year, and not until late in February when they oppose St. Paul's and Dartmouth...
