The crews THE OCEAN, YOU NEED THE WORLD'S compete not only for the honor of being TOUGHEST CHRONOMETER : ROLEX crowned the "Kings" of Navy Sailing for the west coast, but also for the Bis­ wanger Memorial Trophy. This trophy was named for Ted Biswanger, a stu­ dent and an avid sailor who died after a hiking accident in the Los Padres National Forest in 1971. All of the competitors use identical 30-foot Shield's class sloops. Each boat is generally raced by a crew of four. The match racing format is differ­ ent from a fleet race in that the boats compete head to head in a round robin fashion against each of the other teams. The team with the best record after th e two days of sailing competi­ tion will take home top honors. The Postgraduate School Sailing Associa­ tion is looking to retain the crown, which it recaptured from the Treasure Island Youth Club. In the past, the Postgraduate School's oceanographic research ves­ sel, The Acania, has been used both as a committee boat and as a spectator boat. Races for this year will start at 10:00 a.m. on May 26-27.

Crocker in particular was struck with the idea of a plush resort in Monterey and legend, that has the ring of a crack PR man's copy, has it that he and his confederates spent the morning comb­ ing the peninsula seeking the construc­ tion site of their spiffy spa. Coming upon an area where the sun pierced the dense fog, Crocker is said to have plunged his walking stick through the ice plants and decreed that the building would take place in the sun-basked area. It is interesting to note that the site selected by Crocker in this manner of a Biblical prophet was both adjacent to Monterey Bay - the resort's major calling card - and Pacific Improve­ ment's newly acquired narrow gauge railroad spur.

The Big Four's resort offered prosperity to the area's proletariat.

FIRST FIRE The railroad "robber barons" were men who did business in a manner that displeased more than a few. Known plots against the Big Four, who were often attacked through their holdings, can be documented. Other schemes aimed at crippling the "robber barons" are only alleged, with time obscuring the facts. Regardless, the Hotel Del Monte was destined to be reduced to ashes twice, with the men's club house burned to the ground in another holocaust and at least one known rob­ bery planned by bandit-raiders, a plot foiled by a wild west style shootout. The first fire to raze the Hotel Del Monte, a predominantely wooden structure, struck in the wee hours of April 1, 1887. By dawn nothing but ashes remained of the "Grande Dame of America." While a hotel housekeeper believed the fire broke out in the Chinese em­ ployees' dining room, she told of warn­ ing these workers of their carelessness with matches and claimed she had moved gas-brackets away from the walls, others felt differently.

The NPS has come a long way in 75 years, and if you look at the last page in this year's Annual Report, you can see that a lot of NPS students have come a long way, too. In 1909 ten Naval Officers studied Marine Engineering under one profes­ sor. As of March this year, this is how the student body stacked up; Navy- 931, Army-I77, Air Force-9a, Marine- 79, Coast Guard-32, Department of Defense-24, International Students- 291, and from the National Oceano­ graphic and Atmospheric Administra­ tion-6, all fitting somewhere into twenty different programs.

Sometimes the history of a place depends not only upon the big things like famous alumni, outstanding scenery, and ghosts, but also upon the little things. Picturesque ponds, painstakingly landscaped grounds, and majestic peacocks have all contributed to the historic ambience of NPS. Peacocks? Once upon a time there lived an admiral who brought added loveliness tothe Naval Postgraduate School in the form of swans and peacocks. The swans graced the waters, and the peacocks strutted slowly around the sculpt ured shrubs, sensuously unfurling their iridescent tailfeathers for all to see. They gathered sociably around the Navy Exchange and multiplied. One day, several years later, the back stamped with the date May These, and other historic highlights reality hit.

FIRE AGAIN On October 24, 1924 fire was again to strike at the resort, destroying the central section of the hostelry. The fire, of undetermined origin, broke out at 3:30 a.m. in the tower above the hotel's entrance. The orchestra, still playing for robust dancers, is credited with spreading the alarm to the 700 guests. Again firefighters were not able to contain the blaze, but were able to save the kitchen area and hotel wings by dynamiting the corridors leading to them. There were no confirmed reports of serious injury. Faulty bricks, sound for 36 years, used in the building's flues were blamed for the holocaust.
