"Youth must be served." is sn

for another year at least.
Connie Mack is the oldest man
ager la the younger league, and
thia falls world series gsmee

Phvsically they are two entire
ly different types. Mack is tall

are alike. Both are from the old
school ot baseball, but have been
mellowed by the years. Both are
genial philosophers and are look

Cup Committee Choose
Smallest of Fleet
Of Four Sloop
By TOM MORGAN
NKWl'ORT. R. I., Aug. SS. (A
P) Enterprise, smellest of tour
sloops built this spring as pros
pective defeuders ot the America's
cup, today found herself bearlug
the responsibility of maintaining
Columbia's rule over Britain's
yachtsmen, established in 1851.
In that year the yacht America
whipped eighteen of Englands
faatost racing yachts la a race
of yachts around the Isle ot Wight
and brought to these shores a 100
guinea cup of doubtful beauty,
which has siuce been cherished as
the greatest of all yachting tro
phies the America's cup.
Through her selection last uUhl
by the America's Cup committee
ot the New York Yacht club. En
terprise, skippered by Harold 3
LhmM.ib Ci TkniH, t Inlnn,
fifth challenger, and the four
teenth challenger since the cup
wss won by the America In 1851
Wins Two Strnlclit
Enterprise's selection came af
ter she had won two straight
races. In races sailed over vari
ous courses. In various weather
conditions. In some ot which not
all of the candidates took part.
Enterprise took most first places.
Announcement of the commit
tee was accompanied by scant ex
planation. Enterprise beat Weet-
amoe in their two races of the of
tidal trials, but Yaukee twice
whipped Whirlwind, and It bad
been expected the selection com
mittee would send Enterprise out
against Yankee before making a
decision. Yankee's most recent
victory, last Thursday, was in
time which broke previous yacht
ing records for the thirty-mile trl
angnlar course.
Light Air Has Bearing
Possibly tha commutes was in
tluenced In its choice by the pres
ence of the Shamrock V In the
harbor. Sir Thomas Llptoo's sleek
greea sloop has been going around
the harbor In Nsrragansett bay
during the past few days, and
making remarkably good time in
air so light the committee refrain
ed from starting the defender can
didate. Undoubtedly the Enter
prise could sail circles around any
other candidate In extreme light
air, and probably wonld only bow
to Yankee In heavy weather. The
committee, therefore, la thought
to be gambling oa the likelihood
of the International classic being
sailed in light air.
