RETURNING NEXT YEAR
Australian Yachtsmen Leave Auckland By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, February 23. “I don’t think there is any doubt that we shall be back again next year in spite of what has happened,” said Mr. E. C. Chapman, a member of the New South Wales Sailing League, who accompanied the crews of the three Australian 18ft. boats which took part in the world title races at Auckland. "Some of our fellows were sore for a. while over the Taree'.s disqualification, hut. most of them have got over tliat and will abide by the result of the appeal.” He suggested that there had been a set of unfortunate circumstances attached to the committee's decision, but also that there were shortcomings in the rules. He felt no doubt r liat the rules would be revised. All the visiting yachtsmen left for Sydney by the Awatea last night.
