With the righting spirit first and foremost and never a thought of quitting till the end. San Francisco handed Portland a double-headed lacing this afternoon. Erve Higginbotham, star heaver for the Beavers and the chap with not only seven straight victories, but 11 games won out of 12 pitched, met with a sad reversal and as luck would have it. Is charged with the defeat in game No. 1 After a bumping in the fifth Inning which cost him all chances of forging to the front. Higginbotham showed his displeasure when Umpire Finney called a stealing Seal safe at the plate by shoving his clove at the Indicator man Hla- nDt only found himself confronted with a 10 fine, but was dismissed as well. The involuntary dismissal gave the Portlander some little rest and when Evans, the portsider. was send ing out signals of distress in the sev nth sitting. Erve was sent to the firing line, just In time to take upon his shoulders more trouoie. "His" Geta Double Doae. With Evans relieved aa the score stood 4 t 3 on his own side of the fence, it's an easy matter to under stand that the Portland relief twirler was held responsible when the Cali fornians piled up their runs toward the close. In the first game Portland pushed a run around the bases in the second. when Speas singled to left, took second on an infield out by Ryan and scored as Yantz singled to center. For five innings in the second con test the Beavers pounded Fanning much at will. Bancroft tripled In the first and was scored by Derrick be fore Ryan hit into a double play. Korea registered the second run In the sec ond Inning, chiefly because of his own three-sacker. Kores and Fisher man aged to add their fourth in the sixth chapter on twj doubles. Mn th Inning Fatal. The ninth was the crowning glory. With Fisher down. Higginbotham, who had delivered Evans in the seventh, rapped out a smart hit. Bancroft beat out a bunt to the pitcher and Cart wright booted on Speas filling the bases. Rodgers' double to left center drove in a brace of runs, but the rally was pinched when Doane fanned and Buddy sent up a fly. With the Seals facing a score that didn't look good for them, Fltx singled to short. Cartwright hit to the infield but Bancroft dropped the throw that would have forced Fitzgerald a fatal mistake for the Portlander. The run ners worked the double steal as Schaller fanned. Downs singled to right to send In two and again tied the score. Mundorff singled to right and the double steal once more was worked. Charles grounded to Bancroft and would have been a dead out. but the Portland shortstop saw he couldn't stop the winning run and didn't try to throw Chappie out at flcrst. In attempting to catch a foul fly from oft Cartwright's bat, in the sec ond game. Derrick ran smack against the grandstand and collapsed from the collision. Like Howard, he was able to leave the grounds unattended but 6prns had to take on his Job at the first base berth.

DEFIANCE OCT; LOSS $100,000 Backers of Defender Candidate Say Racing Boat Must Tie Fp. BOSTON, July 24. "The Defiance has been abandoned as a racing boat be cause it would be dangerous to sail her again without further changes," Henry Taggard, secretary of the Eastern Tacht Club, said today. Mr. Taggard was representative of the Boston members of the Tri-State Syndicate which financed construction of the unsuccessful candidate for cup defense honors. "The mast step went bad, he con tinued, "and It would take three weeks to remedy it. Just what caused this we do not know, but the condition was so bad we decided to quit." The Defiance cost about J id. 000 and her expenses to date have exceeded $25, 000, it is estimated. THE MORNING OREGONTAN, SATURDAY, Top. SI Chri.toffer.on-,, Unique Flying Boat, After Which Ported.

WIFE MAY FLY WITH "SI" Motion Pictures to Be Taken in First Real Exhibition of Kind Port land .People Will Have Wit nessed Peats Add to Fame. Without even the formality of spill ing a bottle of pseudo White Seal across her bow. Si Christof f ersons freak flying boat was launched in the Willamette River yesterday and the daring Portland aviator will signalize hie return to the native bailiwick to day with a free aerial vaudeville show along the river front. Later, probably on Sunday. August 2, the famous birdman will give exhibi tions of fancy racing and diving at the Country Club under Its auspices. Fred Merrill, lessee of the park, is arrang ing a fine programme, in which a race against a motorcycle and horseraces will be co-ordinating features. Today's exhibition will give. Portland aviation enthusiasts their first glimpse of a flying boat. Silas plans to leave his mooring at the Windemuth Baths about 2:45 and will do a leapfrog act over and under the five bridges of the city. Wife May Fly With Silas. Mrs. Christofferson, who was for merly a Portland girl, may accompany her daring husband and the San Fran cisco moving picture expert, E. Carl Wallen. Motion pictures will be taken of the riverfront and of the city and heights. "I have never given the people oi Portland a real exhibition of flying," said Silas last night to one of his spon sors, Jacob Hill Cook, "and that Is prin cipally why I have stopped off here en route back to California from the Pot latch at Seattle. "Portland is my home, and no mat ter where I roam I always remember my friends in Oregon who helped start me in the aviation game." Chrlstofferson's mechanician, Claude French, is also a Portland boy. French and Silas operated an automobile re pair shop here prior to Si's entry into the atr-conquering pastime. Fame Came In Hotel Flight. Christofferson first sprang into prominence in Portland two years ago. when he flew off the roof of the Mult nomah Hotel before thousands of Elks grand lodge spectators. Later he moved his base to San Fran cisco, where he has performed count less notable and daring feats. Silas won the San Francisco-to-Ba-kersfield race against a large field of entries; was the first aviator to fly from San Francisco to San Diego, but his most recent exploit caps all this. On June 235 he flew over the peak of Mount Whitney, In California, and established a new American altitude record of 15,728 feet. Immediately aft erward he swooped down and crossed over Death Valley for the lowest alti tude record registered In America, PENDLETOfwi FUG BAKER BEATER BY WALLA WALLA IN BURLESQUE GAME.

The rumor that the Oaks stole Catcher Hannah's mitt last week is false. They stole every thing else including 100 bases and the gum off his cap, but nobody wanted the mitt. Judging from the erstwhile Portland Colts' standing In the league the mag nates had to pick out a smau town on which to wish the club. Thus it was Ballard that suffered. A couple of loose "nuts" pulled a golfing feat a few days ago at La Porte. Ind.. that puts them In a class with Joe Knowles. J. H. Jenkins and L. A. Sanford became tired of tramp ing around the golf links from hole to hole so they carried out a 15-mile cross-country match. Next thing they'll be using the mashie across the Atlantic, with small boats to do the caddying. They are telling a good one on "Spi der" Baum, the Seal pitcher who blanked the Beavers Thursday. Charley always takes a fatherjy interest in young pitchers and when Wayne Bar ham joined San Francisco Baum noticed that he did not horn In for his share of the preliminary practice, being of a retiring disposition. "Get In there and throw a few," advised Baum. "Only by constant prac tice can you hope to acquire control." The next day was Baum's turu to pitch and he walked eight men. e Freddie Welsh did not make a cent when he won his title from Ritchie, because Ritchie was guaranteed J25, 000 and Welsh was to spilt the rest with the promoter.
