NEWPORT, R.I. July 10. -- With their 
bulls rolling in a heavy ground swell 
that kept dumping what little breeze 
there was out of their great sails, the cup 
yachts sailed a farcical race over a 
thirty-mile triangle here today. Resolute, 
as usual, emerged the winner. Her actual 
margin was 31 minutes and 21 seconds 
over the Cochran sloop, Vanitie.
