.CAPE MAY ; YACHT CLUB ■ ! RAPID GROWTH, SOCIAL VALUE ' Interesting Schedule if events in preparatien for the i Coming Season s The Cape May Yacht Club has become such a strong factor in the social life- and entertainments of Cape May that to learn something concerning this organ inaxtion and its plans for the ' coming season, -will be interesting. , ' The gentlemen who at present have the honor of being numbered among its officers are as follows : I Commodore, J. Clifford Wilson ; Vice Commodore, R. W. Starr; Rear Commodore, J. F. Lucas ; Secretary and Treasurer, ,W. .Thomas ; Chairman of HotiBe Committee, J. F. Jacoby. The Yacht Club is still in its infancy being in fact only.five years old. During this time however it has become one of the .berit organized [and most cleverly conducted clubs in .the . I country. The governing of the club Is r done mainly abv the board of trustees . which consists of seven members, in- , eluding the Commodore. The mem- , here who are included among these are : Commodore Clifford Wilson, Mr. Howard Kelly, Mr. W. Hutchings, Mr. 1 Newkirk, Mr. Ben. S. Bunn, Mr. J. F. I Jacoby, Mr. Wurtz. Mr. .Wurtz was | hot recently elected as a trustee under the new Constitution and By-laws, 1 the great increase in membership and •, activities of the club having made it that there should be a larger number. Next in importance to the trustees come the different committees which ' arrange for the cany ing out of their ' prospective programs. From the rao- ' ing and entertainment committees we learo.that they are making great pre1 derations for the coming season. There are to be boat races of all kinds, swimming races, and many other en- | joyable things are contemplated to entertain members and guests of the . club. While the regular schedule haB j not yet been arranged, from all that I we can learn the entertainments will ! commence on or about June 27th. ! One of the most important fhanges i in the routine of the club, is the mak- | of the time for elections of officers i a month later. .Instead of taking place I August they will occur in SeptemIn previous years the entertainments and activities of the ciub were considerably hampered by the retiring i of old officers and the coming in of the new. As can easily be seen elections | held at the height of thejseason break I on preconceived plans made by the 1 old officers. The club has under its present management during the last. year, passed 1 the one hundred and fifty mark in number of members and reached its greatest point of prosperity. Owing to its flourishing condition it had enthused its members to such aa extent that there is great rivalry the boat owning members to outdo each other in their endeavors to put upon our waters the fastest and handsomest yachts. The Commodore's | new boat is the largest and beat equipped yacht in the Cape May Club's fleet. The newest type of racing boat ; is owned by Mr. Gibbons and was built \ one of our local builders. Mr. J. F. Jacoby, Chairman of the Committee has assured the members of[the Club that he propo>e8 . make the season of 1908 a memorable one in the annals of yachting at Cape May. The following men comthe active committees : Mr. J. Gibbons. Chairman ; Mr. W. Hepburn, Mr. J. Heise, Mr. W. MoCreary, Jr., Mr. L. Sayre, Mr. J. Mcj Lucas. Mr. S. Hand. Entertainment Committee : Mr. S. ' Hackett, Chairman ; Mr. W. B. ! Mr. W. F. McFillin, J. IsbeaMr. W. King. Mr. W. Thompson.
