Bingham of the Olympic Track & Field Committee. Last March he asked New York City's Park Commissioner Moses when the new Triborough Bridge - and Randalls Island Stadium would be ready.

First over the horizon at St. David's Head, Vamarie crossed the line four minutes ahead of the schooner Brilliant. When the race was over, however, neither had won, for brand new Kirawan, finishing third, beat them both by her 13-hr. time allowance. Time of the winner was 4 days, 20 hr., very slow because of a 50 m.p.h. gale which swooped down on the fleet in the Gulf Stream, made the race the roughest in 13 years, forced six yachts...
