NEW YORK, Dw 18.—Although
( the mile-a-minute boat was considered
- more or less of a dream until recent
years, this speed has been surpassed
in the past two seasons in actual rac
ing and now the standard has been
set at better than seventy miles per
hour. The new records, which were
made in tests against time, were
clocked at Lake George where late
last month the twenty-eight foot hy
droplane Whip-Po’-Will, owned by an
officer of the American Power Boat
association, covered a measured mile
in 51.35 seconds or at an average of
70.15 miles per hour. Six one-mile
dashes were made the first day and
the average was 64.74 miles per hour
while the average of the second day’s
tests was 69.39 miles per hour with
two of the mile sprints showinf an
average of better than 70 miles per
hour.
