BT RALPH J. STAEHU, Two sensations, calculated to give Portland motorboat enthusiasts some thing to talk about for several weeks, were sprung on the unsuspecting public yesterday. The first the least expected is the announcement that Johnny "Wolff, builder of the family- of Wolves, the title-holders of the Pacific for seven years, . is to build another boat. He will, begin work immediately and will a ttemtti to retrieve his, honors, lost this Summer, at the Portola Festival . at San Francisco In October. The second is the announcement that the Oregon Kid, Pacific Coast free-for-ail champion. and ' the Van Blerck, which dropped from sigbt a' fortnight ago, are now in Chicago, where, for the first time in the history of motorboat -tag, the entire country will b repre sented, inasmuch as these two Port land speeders will take a hand in the 135.000 races to be staged on Lake Mich igan August 20. Both Announcements Surprise Just which of these two announce ments is the bigger surprise would be hard to say. At last reports the "Van Blerck was quietly at rest in the waters of Puget Sound, where one of her owners, F. S. Brock, was supposed to be tinker ing with- the engine and the rudders in an attempt o make her more stable. C. V. Cooper, the other owner, was not fully aware of the plans until the day of departure, August 6. The Oregon Kla was supposed to be at Rainier, waiting for a buyer. Captain E. W. Spencer, owner of the Baby Bell. Coast 16-foot champion, hied himself to Kalnier and there Induced Captain Smith to send the free-for-all title-holder to Chicago to take a try for a part of the $35,000, which has been placed as bait for the fastest of the "skeeters." Brock Capable FDRlnrrr. C. "V.-Cooper and F. S. Brock are fi nancing the trip of the Van Blerckand Brock will act as engineer. Brock, for merly with the Oregon Kid. was one of the men who put the boat in its racing form. He piloted it through all its vic tories, and through his many years of motorboat associations, is well quali fied to get all there is out of the Van Al Klingbiel, the long-distance pilot who ran the charmalee to the ocean and back in the first Portland-Astoria and return race, will act aa the pilot of the craft. . The Oregon Kid will be skipped over the wafers of Lake Michigan with Dave Crowley, formerly engineer of the Baby Bell, at the throttle. Harry Groat, who piloted the Baby Bell, will handle the rudder. When thesoashraces are on . the sh.elf, both boats will return to Portland, where they will be put In trim for the Portola Festival races in October. Wolff After All Honors. As for Johnny "Wolffs new boat, it will be a 26-foot hydroplane, of the one step type. Its object will be the win ning of all titles at the Portola Festival in October. When the Oregon Wolf failed to come back and defend its honors at the last Astoria Regatta, Wolff de clared that he was out of the gajne for some time, at any rate, and at least would not race again this year. However, the strain of receiving In vitations from meets all over and hav ing to "lay down" on an answer be cause he had no boat, proved the un doing of the master-builder and last night he made up his mind to have another boat, name as yet unknown, but nevertheless a speeder. . The design, further than the one step and the planes, is yet to be determined, but Wolff alone will be the builder. In a recent letter from the Smith-Ryan people of ''Reliance" fame. It was claimed that the Wolff boats were of Eastern design, but this Wolff denies and the boats which will folltfw will continue to be of his own moulding. Engine Is Overhauled. The engine will be the same as that which has won all Wolff had the nine-cylinder . Smalley of 800-horse-power. T This engine is now being somewhat overhauled and the biggest part of it will be sent Ease- at once, so as to bet back in time to furnish the power for the races on Ban Francisco Bay. The boat to be built will be a devia tion from Wolff's usual In Its size. The Wolves have always been either very long or else short. It was found that the engine was too powerful for the short boats and for . that reason he has chosen a medium. 1913 Bowling Record Broken. SEASIDE, Or.. Aug. 12. (Special.) C. C. Martin today on the Pool Bros, bowling allies made eight straight strikes, two spares and one strike, roll ing up a total score of 268, and break ing the Seaside bowling alley record for 1913. Last year Fred Morris broks a record -made by C. Holland, of 284, which stood as a record for ten years. The breaking of a record here at Sea side is one of the many diversions of Summer visitors. Up until last year when Fred Morris shattered the mark made by a man named H. McHolland, Portland and Astoria bowlers had a shy at the record. In 1912 Morris did the trick, bowling 267. When Martin started to bowl today he was not out after a record, but when he began making strike after strike, the news got(abr.oad that a bowler was making a record and by th time Martin had made seven straight strikes, a gallery of several hundred people had crowded into the alleys. McAlHster May Take Rest. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 12. Bob Mc Allister, the San Francisco fighter, who achieved prominence In the middle weight division when he fought 20 rounds to a draw with Sailor Ed Pe troskey, will probably retire tempora rily from the ring, according to the announcement made today by his brother, Al McAllister, who is his man ager. "Bob Is only 20 years old." the brother explained, "and I think It will be for his best Interests to step out of the game tor a year. He has practi cally promised that he will follow my advice.

THE SECRET Long filler selected from the choice tobacco grown in the great "Mano" district properly blended and wrapped with a fine Sumatra burns free and even always mild, sweet and fragrant sounds easy, don't it -but it took many years of tobacco education and exper ience to produce the Tom Keene you are buying it's the product of the best tobacco brains of the country.

'Surf Riding on Willamett Is Latest Sport Effect of Ocean Pastime Gained by Rldinar Board Drawn on River by Fast Motorboat. ABSOLUTELY tho latest in sports baa been discovered in Portland. It is "surf" riding without any surf.v This is how It is done: A launch capable of making between 20 and 30 miles an hour is procured. To its stern, a long rope is tied and to this rope a board, eight feet long and two feet broad Is fastened. Two ropes, like reins, are fastened to the front end of the board. The man who intends to do the riding lies flat on the board, a little bit to the rear with the ropes wrapped about his hands. When the launch starts the front end of the board rises from the water. The rider then stands up, with the ropes still In his hands and the board begins to Jump, leading the water en tirely like porpoise on the deep sea. The rider maintains his position and the rope is sometimes lengthened to 60 feet and to say the least the sight of a man apparently walking on water, makes people on the bridges spanning the Willamette stop to take in the layout.
