HARVARD UNDERGRADUATES SAIL SCHOONER TO ENGLAND

A group of Harvard students and graduates will carry the Crimson to English waters this summer.

Daniel Simonds '28 will sail his schooner "Nicanor" across the Atlantic this summer to participate in the Fastnet race, the English long distance ocean race corresponding to the American yachtsman's Bermuda race.

Among those on board will be John Parkinson, Jr., '29, Gardiner Emmons '28, and J. L. Pool '28.

The "Nicanor" is 67 feet long overall, and is from designs by Alden similar to his famous "Malabars", which have made such excellent showings in ocean races of the past few seasons. The craft was built in the yards of Charles Morse in Thomaston, Maine.
