Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. It was a good day of weather at the fourth round of the five-day Midwinter Regatta. Photograph appears with the article, "Matt Walsh Scores Win," Los Angeles Times, 16 Feb 1936: A12. Six sailboats are seen in a row on the choppy water underneath dark and cloudy skies. Text from negative sleeve: 3706 - Yachts 2-15-36 [stamped:] Feb 18 1936 Handwritten on negative: Yachts 2-15-36 Text from newspaper caption: Heavy seas off Los Angeles Harbor sent boats in the star class careening to a dangerous angle with the crews clinging to the sides yesterday as the Tenth Annual Midwinter Regatta neared a conclusion. The thrilling classic comes to a close today with winners in each class being selected after a week's sail maneuvering on courses near the harbor entrance. The By-C leads in the star class.
