Auburnians Saturday, who * went by motor and train'to witness the inter collegiate regatta, in which Syracuse University won first honors. Dozens, of Auburn cars mingled with the hun dreds which went^out of Auburn down the Finger Lakes Trail through Mfr ; ravia and Freeville to the Cayuga Lake city, where one of tbe largest crowds i ever assembled at a regatta, bad as sembled under ideal -weather, condi tions to see the battle of brain and brawn between the competing oars men.' Despite tbe exceptionally, heavy traffic, thc heaviest probably -which ever, went down the trail through Mo ravia, not a ..serious accident\ was, re ported. In'and about Ithaca excep tional, precautions1, had been taken' to. prevent auto 'smashes and a large corps'of State Police‘admirably handl ed the crowds. The influx of visitors from all’parts of the East was notice able In Auburn,'traffic, policemen re^ porting bere unusually large numbers of 'out-of-torn cars' speeding regatta- wards. Precautions Along Rond. The small towns' between here and Ithaca had mobilized traffic policemen for the occasion and the officer at Mo ravia was splc and span in new blue uniform. Six miles-from Ithaca there was a ■ washout on the Finger Lakes trail, but precautions bad been taken to station officers at • either end. to warn motorists to drive slowly and electric signs at night 'warned of the bad stretch of 50 feet. The roads gen erally were in line “condition-and the only untoward-incidents were when several local motorists got on the wrong road to “follow the crowd” and went toward Cortland instead o f An burn on the^ return trip. ' ' t Virtually'all ' 1 night-• Saturday the cavalcade of motorists filed down the trail from Ithaca, villages' like Mo ravia seeing the llvest nights in their history. The exceptional size of the crowds, made up largely of delegations from New York cities, gave keen sat isfaction' to officials, of the Finger Lakes Association wbo are hopeful of retaining the intercollegiate regatta permanently for Cayuga Lake. The throngs compared favorably in size to those on the Hudson.at Poughkeep-: sie and officials declare they, have proven the practicability of Bolding the regatta in the -Finger Lakes Region, near the home of Cornell and Syracuse, the peers in the rowing game. Throng Spreads Far. A noticeable feature of the day was the number of Syracusans who 'passed through Auburn to attend the races. An equal number went by way of Cort land. Saturday and Sunday the Os borne House and other liostelrles here were filled with the overflow from the regatta and Lakeside Park received lake country drawn‘.to the races? Bryce Blaksly, commodore, and sev eral members of the victorious Syra cuse/varsity crew, stopped over to spend Sunday;at Lakeside. -Dr.' A. H.

' * Reports to local members\■ of the Finger Lakes Association.* are,-'to the effect that resort centers * throughout the eastern half ^ of the region were thronged Sunday with persons who motored through from distant points to Ith a c a .T h e , Board 1 of Commerce, acting'for\ the association,;, distributed road guides to visitors, pointing out the beauty spots, garages, hotels and points of historic interest-in the region, and this action kept hundreds of motorists in the lake zone over the week-end.

'1 Confiscation of the 197 cases of Gold en AVeddlng and Seneca ..Chief whiskey stored In the cellar of the residence of Thomas Quinn, restaurant proprietor, at 12 Woodruff Place, -was hinted at by Federal revenue agents from the Syra cuse office who stated that they were simply “waiting- orders from head quarters to go ahead. The.- federal men said they had made-arrangements for the confiscation of the liquor, which will be taken to Syracuse to be put in storage but were-awaiting -the arrival of- someone from the revenue office to take charge of'the removal of tho cases. The federal agents hare held confer ences with Mr. Quinn and his attorney •Frank L. Colburn. The stock'in the Quinn cellar I» valued -.at’ $ 2000 . . i * - - Federal Function Now The liquor issue has proved, most vexing to local authorities-on account of confusion as to who is who in the matter of enforcement: Legal opinion seems to be that it is up to the federal authorities to handle all such cases as the one'that-came to* light here follow ing the raid by thieves upon the stock of liquor kept in the home of Thomas Quinn. Local authorities cannot ob tain .warrants, to search for llquor in a private home, nor can they seizeJiquor found in a private home. The federal dry statutes supercedes the state law under which Auburn flrst became “dry,” lawyers declare. This opinion is given force by the declaration of Senator Sage,\ who de clares that there is no longer any need of a State Excise' Department, as the matter of enforcing the liquor law of the nation is solely federal function.
