Portland's Speedboat pride, the battle-scarred "Oregon Wolf No. 4." in the list of De signer John E. Wolffs concoctions, al most "came back" against her 1913 usurper today. "Almost" tells the brutal story. The Wolf led her rival, Oregon Kid II, of Rainier, over 23 miles of the stipulated 30 miles in the Pacific Coast free-for-all championships, as the feature event of the annual regatta, and then a broken gasoline feedpipe robbed the white racer of the spoils of ' victory. Two other chuggers, the Wastrel, of Seattle, and the Baby Bell, of Portland, earlier bad succumbed to the speed boat hoodoo, so that the Kid was the only boat to finish the main event. Crowd Is Tremendous. Despite the unfortunate ending, how ever, and despite the rather mediocre speed attainments in all the races, a huge crowd viewed the events and, from the standpoint of Interest, .at least, the first day's hydroplaning was a huge success. Thousands of holiday seekers perched along the waterfront, hundreds packed aboard the novel ship-grandstand, the Alcides, while numerous small craft lined the five mile course, as well as Amlral Met schan's flagship, the revenue cutter Snohomish, swelled the list well Into five figures. To make victory all the more memor able, the Oregon Kid II was driven by 16-year-old Wilbur Smith, of Rainier, and his pilot, Sllva, also was so young that the committee had to rescind the maturity rule before the race could be run. The Kid not only captured the free-for-all heat, but also the first heat of the 20-foot class. E. W. Spencer's Baby Bell, of Portland, trailed second to the Kid In this six-mile dash, but did show her heels to the smaller en tries in her own class, the 16-foot, winning that championship for the sec ond time. Baby Bell Fastest of Day. The 16-foot race was the first on the programme, and, as it afterwards de veloped, was the fastest of the day. Crowley and Smith sent the Baby Bell twice around the three-mile course in 11 minutes and 25 seconds, for an aver age speed of 32.6 miles per hour. She missed a buoy on tne first lap', how ever, and this prevented faster time. The Bell thus was forced to make a complete turn and, ere the spray again glistened oft her prow, the new Was trel, of Seattle, had shot far in the lead. Then the Baby Bell revealed her speed. With engines purring rhythmlo ally and exhausts vomiting fire, the Bell lunged forward at a terrific pace, passed the Wastrel long before the final lap was over and showed a speed of 32.6 miles for the lap. The Wastrel, a new hydroplane of the Reliance type, equipped with a six cylinder Emerson engine of 100 horse power, was second and the Red Nose II. of Seattle, another new boat, fin ished third. The Red Nose is pow ered with a six-cylinder Roberts en gine and is rated at 60 horsepower. This little 16-footer is owned by F. S. McKeen and Felix Hoffmann and the Wastrel by George Weyland, another Seattle enthusiast. The Oregon Kid II, Red Nose, Bear Cat. Wastrel and Baby Bell all were entered in the 20-foot race. They fin ished: Kid first. Baby Bell second and Wastrel third. Strong Wind Threatens Tiny Boats. Motorboat enthusiasts evidenced keen disappointment when the Kid's average time of only 29.9 miles an hour was an nounced. Some few hinted that the pilots were jockeying, but the real truth was that a strong northwest wind had kicked up from downstream and angry swells more than once threatened to pound the fragile-looking shells to " pieces. This rough water likely . aided the Wolf in her battle against the con quering Oregon Kid, for she is a 26 footer.and the extra six feet in length and extra beam' ought to help steady her. At any rate, the white racing Wolf left the flagship with a snort and a roar and always was in the lead from that time to the close of the 23d mile, when her grimy and much-chagrined drivers were forced to turn back with a disabled engine. - The Wolf could not withstand the terrific pounding of a 28.8-mtle gait on such a sea and thus ruefully she relinquished her place to a slower rival, nearly 500 yards astern. Crowd Shows Wolf Sympathy. Deep disappointment, allayed with sympathy, showed on every face as the Wolf beat her hasty retreat for cover. Everybody was expecting a thrilling finish, for the Kid several times bad spurted to within 100 yards of her bitter rival. The Oregon Kid loafed the last lap and one-half alone and her average time for the entire 30 miles was only 24.3 miles, although she had done 28.6 for the first half of the distance. Under the purse system in vogue the places counted as in track meets, five points for first, three for second and one for third. Winners were paid so much per point. The Oregon Kid's first day's purse receipts were 3250; Baby Bell. J120; Wastrel, $60. and Red Nose, J 15. In the afternoon's yacht event the Virginian, Commodore T. J.

But it is said the next order issued by Secretary Daniels will prohibit cuss words on all Government vessels. Old Doc Yak came near winning a race here to-day. He would have won sure had old 348 behaved herself. But, Just at the critical moment, she sprang her rear axle, and it was all off. So the Baby Bell came in ahead by a nose. Still more tragic was the free-for-all motorboat race. Baby Bell died on the first lap; Bear Cat took to the tall timber a moment later. Then, for 23 miles the Oregon Kid No. 2 and the Oregon Wolf No. 4 had It almost nip and tuck. Then something happened, and, with a bursted feed pipe, Johnnie and his pet Wolf came limping home, leaving the Kid to finish the remaining seven miles alone. Hence the tears among the admirals of all sorts who came down from Port land town expecting for sure, and placing their ducats to back their opinions, that the Wolf would Just naturally "chaw" the Kid good and plenty.

For so long as we have so many admirals the Mexican situation need not disturb' us, the prosperity of Ore gon will be assured and Astoria will be the biggest figure on the map for three days every year, forever and ever, amen. As to the boat races In another year, I heard one young lady say that she wished to give some new contender against the Wolf and Kid a winning name. I asked the fair one to divulge the name to me that I might divulge it to The Oregonlan and let The Ore- gonian divulge it to the public So she twittered the name in mine ear, my left ear, and the name was this: "What Ma Says." I remarked that that was a dev 1 mean a singular name. "Not at all, she again twittered, not at all what ma says always goes." OI If Johnny worn had only tnougm of that. .

Glenn Curtis Pilots Wanamaker Craft on Weight Trial Before De parture North. HAMMONDSPORT, N. Y., July 2. The America, the flying boat built for Rod. man Wanamaker, made several flights this afternoon, piloted by Glen Curtiss carrying the heaviest loads with which she has so far been burdened. The gross weight of the machine on one flight was more than 5000 pounds. The weight of the boat was estimated at more than 2100 pounds. On this flight Curtis carried seven passengers. Dr. A. F. Zahm, of the Smithsonian Institution, was among others who were given a ride during the afternoon. Though the America's weight carried today was somewhat more than will be required in the- proposed transatlantic flight, Mr. Curtiss expressed his Inten tion of doing some further experimental work with the hull before preparing to ship the flying boat to Newfoundland. He seems to think a still larger margin of safety in fuel-carrying can be pro duced. Today in place of the auxiliary hydro boards, with which the machine was temporarily equipped, two pontoons were attached to the wings midway to the ends of the planes. These appeared to raise the machine somewhat in the water. Solid Sliver Bedstead. Indianapolis News.
