CLEAR LAKE With a crowd estimated at 2,000 persons lining the lake shore Sunday, the most thrilling and successful out-board motor boat races of many years were witnessed Sunday afternoon. Many of the older residents of Clear Lake maintain that there has not been such 'a crowd of visitors at the beach since the old-fashioned days when everyone came here for excursion rides. Bass, promotor of the races, claims that they were most successful and hopes that with a continuation of this type of races next mer Clear Lake will become an outstanding racing center.

"I want to extend my deepest appreciation to the out of town visitors who brought their boats here for the races," said Mr. Bass. "Mat Miller of Cedar Rapids, commodore of the City Boat club, brought five boats and helped a great deal in excitement and thrills to the Many more boats could have been brought if there had been more time, but Mr. Miller not reached until late in the week, Winners Are Named. Since there were not enough class A boats entered, two heats were given over to class races and the last two heats were for boats of all classes.

Not only were cars parked for back from the beach, but docks all blocks along the lake shore, and along the course 'of the races from the city pier to Wellmon's beach were lined with on-lookers with telescopeg and field glasses. The crowd was probably largest ever to witness such an event at Clear Lake, and the event was one of the larg. est water activities ever attempted here.

"Next summer, the commercial club, which sponsored the Sunday races, plans to have local motorboat races every week-end." continued Mr. Bass. "We will have one large event in which out-of-town racers will compete, and it will be even larger and better than Sunday's." Memorial Service of J.

YACHT CLUB GUN INITIATED IN RACE New Cannon Signals Event Delayed Because of Calm. I Knew Brahms' Startles Singing Village Listeners Orchestra Player German Composer to Gathering. By JOHN D. CLINTON CLEAR LAKE "I knew Brahms." The speaker was Otto Rochrborn at the musical tree dedication at Singing Village Sunday evening. As an interesting experience each evening, Signor Cappelli tells briefly of an immortal musician asks the villagers to out the tree on the campus of Methodist camp which symbolizes the artist mentioned.

Sunday evening the tree chosen was one of the central elms in the double quartet at Elmwood bowl, the camp -air theater. As Prof. Georg Shapiro drove the nail which should hold the name "Brahms' upon the tree, one of his artiste in his Little Philharmonic of Chicago, spoke up, "I knew Brahms." And then this long time Chicago Symphony orchestra er continued. "I was a student at the Royal high school in Berlin from 1890 to 1892. Brahms came to our school twice a week.

His music was difficult to understand, but when you did understand, then you wanted to hear it all the time. We had a clothing store near the school, from which, if you bought your suit and if it rained while you were out in its there was much shrinking of the trousers." Friend of Schumann, It was the conclusion of Mr. Roehrborn. "We always said, Schumann must have bought his trousers there." The senior violinist at Singing Village continued talking awhile, mentioning that Brahms was a good friend of Robert Schumann and his wife, Clara, and that the three of often checked on the perfection one another's compositions. Near the big Brahms elm stood a double elm.

Villagers bave a good hunch as to where they may select the Schumann tree when that time comes on the lake shore some night this week at 7:15 o'clock. All day gatherings Sunday at Singing Village centered in music appreciation hours. In the morning service Dr. B. W.

Riner spoke upon "The Ministry of Music." Chorus Presents Number. In the musical part of the service, Miss Ellen Smith had the young women's chorus of the village, after many faithful practices, ready to present, Divine cellist Redeemer." from Harry Sturms, concert Kansas City, played at the Bach charmingly. This artist and his instrument are a great team. Off to a great start at the accompaniment of George Shapiro on the grand piano, Sturms procecds to lose himself in his interpretation of the number chosen. He is giving the Village a type of cello playing seldom experienced outside great symphonic centers in America.

In the afternoon the Little Philharmonic string quartet surpassed itgelf, forgetting the heat and delving into a rich presentation of two movements from the works of Haydn. Prof. Walter Beeler then introduced a trio of his Mason City bandsmen, who with himself and Miss Dorothy Evans at the piano, carried the audience over from string to brass interpretation. Robert Bagley brought out "The Stars in a Velvety Sky." in excellent fashion. The difficult, "Carnival of Venice." was played by Craig McHenry of Ithaca, New York college staff with technical facility and good taste.

Professor Beeler himself played a Kryl waltz, "Josephine." His was an excellence of tone production so mellow that at times his instrument seemed like a buman voice. "In all my experience," said Conductor George Shapiro, "I have never heard a better tone." Flynn Advocates Peace. In the evening, after Maurice Monitz had given a well executed violin solo and Edwin Ferry, a Village student from Nebraska, had sung a baritone solo, Dr. Clarence Flynn of Mason Cily First Methodist church' was introduced. His evening address was based on a consideration of the international nature of all things musical.

"I know a propagandist," he said, "who told me to give him six months and his typewriter and he could start a war between any two countries." Monday and Tuesday nights at the Village on the south shore will be in the nature of campfire gatherings, informal places where the great of the musical profession share experiences and talents with the youth of the middle west here gathered for that part of Singing Village which cannot be put down in catalogs.
