Charles B. Dumborow, chairman of tne swimming committee of the River ton Yacht club of Riverton, N. J is completing plans for the greatest classic 10-mlle national championship on August 16. The race will be of especial Interest to Portland swimming followers as the XUverton Yacht club has made an offer to pay half of the expenses of the winner or tne National A. A- TJ. 1-mile marathon swim to be staged In the Willamette under the auspices of Mult noman Amateur Athletic club on Aug ust 2, as the east will take part in the cig swim. surpassing all other events in Its frtagnitude. and being the annual east rn aquatic classic, the 10-mile race looms as the greatest swimming race tf the season. Practically every one nf the 14 A. A. V. districts in the United states win do represented, the race thus assuming a national aspect; and a Jield of from 20 to 30 starters is ex pected to go the long course. Two San Francisco swimmers of note ure mentioned as probable entries. They are Harold ("Stubby") Kruger nnd Jimmy Mcintosh. Kruger is the lavorite already in the eastern papers lor victory. According to Durnborow, in a letter to Jack Cody, swimming and living instructor at Multnomah club, 'the wonderful swimming of the young Hawaiian when he was in Philadelphia list August left a lasting impression of his aquatic prowess. The Riverton club has agreed to pay all of Kruger's expenses if he will go east. Two former Pacific coast stars, N'or- rnan Ross of Portland, and Ludy Lan frer of Los Angeles, have been ap proached to swim, and it is likely that they will be on the mark when the ptarter of the long grind raises his pun. The entries of Buddy Wallen, Mike McDerniott and Perry McGilliv- ray, middle western stars and world's record holders, have been solicited, and the great Illinois Athletic club trio will be in the race. Training for the Pacific Northwest hssociation outdoor swimming and div ing championship in Victoria. B. C, next month goes on steadily at Mult nomah club under the atchful eye of Jack Cody. The Winged M mermen nnd mermaids are getting into great condition, and will be ready for the liggest outdoor swimming event of the reason in the Pacific northwest, A number of the club's best tank stars took part in the big celebration of the Portland Motorboat club in Newberg yesterday. Among those were Miss Thelma Payne, women's national A. A. L". indoor fancy diving champion and also holder of the northwest and Ore gon women's fancy diving champion ships; Miss Irene Pembroke. Miss Vir ginia Pembroke, Miss Georgia Carmany, '.Happy" Keuhn, Shorty Oliver and Don Ftryker. Jaqk Cody accompanied the Bwimmers. m Vanoe vieth. the wilyswimming in ctru"T of the Los Angeles Athletic club, threatens to give the world of sport another champion swimmer. This time his "find" and protege Is a breast stroke swimmer by the name of Fer- dinand Brook, who hails from Betrolt. Brook is not really a "find" literally speaking, but is being coached in the finer points of breast-stroke swimming by the club mentor. Brook is the pres ent holder of the breast-stroke swim ming title of Michigan. Harry G. Stevens of the Cleveland Athletic club plans on entering two dis tance men in the ten-mile swim August 16 at Riverton- N. J. "Bud" Goodwin, dean of all distance swimmers in this country, will take another fling at the long grind In togs of the New York Athletic club. Leo Gieble, winner of the race last yea, will also be in the swim for the New Tork Athletic club. Gleble's time for the ten miles down stream was 2 hours 1 minute and 20 seconds, which was 20 minutes faster than the course had ever been traveled before. One ingenious idea the eastern pro moters use is to have every entry wear a different colored rap, and to have fixed on the stern of each pilot boat a huge number. The swimmer knows his number and the pilot knows the cap of the man he is guiding. This ODviates all trouble in the matter of keeping, the men from getting lost in the race. The course is from pier 10, Delaware river at Philadelphia, to the Riverton Yacht club, ten miles down stream, with the assistance of a tide which flows 2 miles an hour. ' Miss Betty Grimes of the Minneapolis A. C. begins to look a most likely can didate for national competition at free style swimming. She thrashed 50 yards officially in 31 seconds a few days ago and has been credited with beating 30 seconds more than once In time trials. Another record went to waste when Miss Ethelda Bleibtrey swam 100 yards with back stroke in 1 minute 25 1-5 sec onds at the recent monthly meet for members of the New York Women's S. A. The time Is the fastest ever made by a member of the sex, but cannot be recognized, owing to the race being closed. WILIE LEADS SWATSMITHS FORMER FORFLANDirR HEADS IiEAGTTE IX BATTING. SIcnsel of Vernon Is Second With .36 9 and' Crawford of Jjos Ange les Is Third ATith .368. Dennie "Wllie, ex-Beaver now pastim- Ing for Oakland, is leading the Pacific Coast league batsmen with an average of .380, including games up to laet Sun day. Dennle is on a Bteady climb, and hitting the ball to all points of the narks. Bobby Meusel, the sensational young Vernon outfielder, who is out of the navy and back with his team. next in line to Wllie. hitting the pellet for .369. Sam Crawford of the Angels Is hitting .368, whllo Brick Eldred Is down for .367. Crawford lumped from .348 to .368 to grab third place and Is srotnir strong-. Portland's reason for not winning can be figured when it is seen that Del Baker, the Beavers' stellar catcher and best hitter, was clouting the pill for an average of .296 up to last Sunday Rader hits next on the list for the Beavers with .286. Earl Sheeley had a great week at Salt Lake and Jumped 19 points Into fifth place. Bill Stumpf, former Bea ver, now with the Oaks, rose 36 points in his batting average. Harl Maggert. with Salt Lake, Is the eading run maker of the league, with 38 to his credit. Brick Eldred of Sac ramento is tied with Billy Lane of Oak land for second honors, each having scored 36 tallies. Babe Pinelli, former Beaver, now with the Sacramento club, continues to be the leagues best base swiper. Babe has beat the catchers' throws 22 times, while Fournler of the Angels has done the trick 17 times. Justin Fitzgerald of the Seals has crossed the home plate safely 16 times. Roy Corhan of the Seals is still lead ing in sacrifice hits with 21 to his name, while Roxey Middleton of Sac ramento is second with 14. If Earl Sheely can continue his pres ent clip of home-run hitting he is likely to break the world s record. The sea son is less than one third over and Sheely has hit ten homers up to date. Hack Miller of Oakland is leading the circuit with two-base swats with 17. He knocked out six against Salt Lake two weeks ago. Art Griggs of Sacra mento Is second with 15. Fournler has hit nine triples, while Crawford and Shlck have hit six apiece. The averages up to last Sunday follow: Player. Club. Dales. Salt Lake Pell, Vernon MeGaffigan. Sacramento Wllie.

There Is no money In this country for this sort of invest ment because the American people do not realize the value of sound In vestments.". Oregon people, in common with those of the rest of the United States, have awakened to the value of investments In bonds. Collecting interest on lib erty loan bonds has been found a rath er agreeable experience and has given a widespread understanding of the dif ference between bonds and other classes of Investment. Therefore It Ts with minds open to conviction that the citizens will go to the polls Tuesday to vote on the reconstruction measures submitted by the legislature under which money may be raised to build roads, erect needed buildings at state institutions and make available a fund- that can be used in conjunction with money from the treasury of the United States to create new farm homes for soldiers of the foreign war who want chance to do something for them selves. Bankers and bond dealers are confi dent, that most of the bond Issues will be quickly absorbed by home investors. Citlxens of Oregon will Invest their capital, receive the benefit of the im provements and collect the Interest that would formerly have gone out of the state. It Is a" new experience for the American people, but it is teachingathe lessons of thrift. . .

Ho says mere is auuiiuHm money reaay tor sucn securities as Oregon has to offer that can show adequate earning power. There is cash available for large loans on business properties, industrial plants, timber and farm lands. Mr. Goudey says there Is an attitude of an tagonlsm to the tax exemption feature of the federal farm loan bonds, as play lng into the hands of the large invest ors and having a tendency to depreciate the value of liberty bonds. He looks for action to abolish the tax exemption privileges of various classes ot gov ernment bonds.

BERRY FAIR OPENS FRIDAY PORTLAND PEOPLE TO ATTEND LEBANON IlOME-COSIING. Internal Revenue Collector Liberal In Praise of Linn County Town. I ands Are Boosted. Xext Friday and Saturday Milton A. MJHer will be at the head of a delega tion of former residents of Lebanon who will make their annual home-coming visit to the berry center of Linn county and participate In festivities of the annual Btrawberry fair. For two days every year the collec tor of internal revenue puts aside the cares Incident to gathering In the" cash for the federal treasury and devotes all of his energies to the enjoyment of the delights of his old home town. In the days when democrats aspired, but rarely acquired distinction of federal appointments, the people of Iebanon voted for Milt Miller and kept him In the state senate so long that he gained the sobriquet of the "Sage of Lebanon," which clings to him still through the vicissitudes of partisan etnhroglios and administration quibbles. But of one thing there is not a particle of doubt, and that is his devotion to the cause of the home town and Its institutions. "There are a lot of Portland people going to automobile down to Lebanon for the fair." he said yesterday, "and they know that Lebanon grows the finest strawberries In the world. That river bottom land along the Santiam grows the best of everything, even men and women. Last week the manager of the canning factory at Lebanon paid $320 an acre for 62 acres of bottom land. . Got It cheap, too! Lebanon has monthly payroll of J10.000 and the people are going to show the old resi dents who come back for a visit and the strangers who want to learn something about the valley, what a great country we have."
