...race day, a stiff 22-knot wind built up 6-ft. to 10-ft. waves. But out they went, 63 of the fastest, most expensive outboards, inboards, diesels and stern drives ever assembled on one patch of water. Bill Petty's Pussy Cat, a 23-ft., 550-h.p. Sportsman worth $20,000, was barely clear of the harbor when it caught fire and burned to the water line. Minutes later, Bill Lewis' 40-ft. Formula came apart and sank. Only 32 boats reached the initial checkpoint at Bimini; of these, twelve never reached Nassau...

THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE (Decca). It's the bee's knees, the cat's whiskers and 23-skidoo in the razzmatazz sound of the '20s, featuring Julie Andrews and Carol Channing from the sound track.
