ASTORIA. On, July 2. 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.

But it is said the next order issued
by Secretary Daniels will prohibit cuss

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.

be, for SS2 long days and as many
nights. And may the Lord have mercy
on their souls and may their tribe in

America Safe From Mexicans.
For so long as we have so many
admirals the Mexican situation need

be the biggest figure on the map for
three days every year, forever and

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

"Not at all, she again twittered,

FLYING BOAT AMERICA TAKES 5000
FOUNDS ON TRIP.
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.
