Widely Differing Estimates of GasoleneRequired President Ketcham
Thinks It Possible
NEW YORK Sept Charleysoffer of a 16000 prize to the owner ofthe first motor boat to cross thefrom Havre to New York arousedmuch Interest here
The offer was widely discussed in au-
tomobile and boat circles and the general opinion seemed to be that a atpresent constructed motor boats are notsufficiently seaworthy to undertake anocean voyage The problem ot carryingthe gasolene required for so longwas considered by many persons as almost insurmountable-
On two points those who discussed thematter were pretty well agreed Onewas that a boat capable of standingthe voyage and of holding the fuel re-
quired would need to be specially designed for the purpose The other wasthat M Charleys offer ought to havebeen open to craft traveling In eitherdirection so as to give an opportunity toAmerican ingenuity to try for the prize
W H Ketcham president of heAmerican Power Boat Associationthought it quite possible to construct aboat capable of ocean
Ketcham Optimistic-I dont see why a motor boat could
not make an ocean trip he said If adory can cross under sail as has beendone the risk as concerns the size ofthe boat is eliminated The only question Is whether a motor boat can carrysufficient fuel to last for so long a Journey I should think the trip could bemade in about twelve to fourteen days
Figuring on a twenty horsepower motor the amount of gasolene to be cur-ried would be about COO gallons Thishowever need not be difficult as a boatto be seaworthy should have accommodation for that amount As the tanksbecome emptied of gasolene they will actas air tanks I wish Mmade his offer for a boat ineither direction I know of severalAmericans who might bulk craft forsuch a test
E R Hollander winner of the racingboat F I A T on the otherwas of opinion that n motor boat couldnot be constructed with sufficient sea-worthiness or with for the fuelrequired He figured that a sixty horsepower boat would take from 2000 to 2M0gallons of gasolene on an ocean voyage

ST LOUIS Sept 14Lke all greatevents in the history of the world thestory and incidents in connection withthe Olympic games will not remain onthe quiet pages of history but even twoweeks after this great Olympiad newcomplications arise such as throw upontho a blight that can not beerased and the probable outcomo maybe the awarding of tho Olympic tug ofwar championship to a St Louis teamBold Acknowledgment-
In a Chicago paper Edwin R Bakercoach and trainer of the Milwaukee AC tugofwar team openly declares thatthe team which represented the Milwaukee A C was composed of men wheare members of the Columbian KnightsAthletic Association which latter organization Is a member of the Centralassociation of tho A A U This statement Is the boldest acknowledgment ofa violation of the A A V rules everplaced on record and not only does itdisqualify the Milwaukee team butplaces President W H Liginger of theA A U chairman of the athletic committee of the Milwaukee A C andpresident of the central association ofthe A A U in an unenviable light
In view of the confession of Mr BakerMilwaukee A C has violated the rulesof the A A U no matter what excusesmay be made by any of the con-cerned and ir the governing board ofthe A A U lives up to tho rules of thebody which controls amateur sportIn America It wilt disqualify Milwaukeeand award first honors to West Side StLouis T V with the second team of thesame organization second and New YorkA C thirdHelps New York
If the Milwaukee team is disqualified-and ordered to surrender the medalsNew York A C ill assume third placeand gain one more point on the cham-pionship table
At the time that the final heat of thetugofwar was about to be contestedthe writer approached President Liginger and asked if the men composing theteam did not to one of the
societies in Chicago at the sametime Informing the Milwaukee man thathe had received information to that
President Liginger stated that themen were Chicagoans and were mem-bers of his lodge in one of the secretorganizations not tatlng the name ofthe order and that they were membersof the Milwaukee A C but of how
he did not say He furtherstated that he had a right to form ateam of any men who resided in the central A A U district
