THE 3I0RMXG OKEG OMAN, MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 1919.
Thousands of sport followers wh
lined the banks of the Columbia river
at Columbia beach yesterday afternoon
to witness the regatta staged by th
Portland Motorboat club were treated
to one of the beet entertainments
water sports ever offered in this part
of the country.
The motorboat races were better even
than those staged by the Portland
Motorboat club at its recent annua
Willamette river regatta and were
f-Ioely contested from start to finish.
The absence of the Vogler Boy II from
the programme, owing to i:s destruc
tion in an explosion last week, took
some of the edge off of the scheduled
peerfboat events, but the races Between
the runabouts and cruisers more than
made up for the loss.
A mysterious speed boat from Van
rouver. Wash., with a 100-horsepower
Curtips aeroplane motor, was on hand
but could not show its best speed be
cause of a bad clutch and engine trou
b!e. The name of the boat, which was
built by several Vancouver speed buns
was not divulged, but it will compete
in the next regatta against all comers.
The beat race of the day was the
handicap runabout event with five
raft entered. The Rudy, owned and
piloted by Skipper M. 8. Boone, finished
first, crossing the line a few inches
ahead of A. B. (Daredevil" 'Weather-
fords Swizzle. Wiwuo. piloted by
Hilly Love, romped In third, with Bash,
ful Boy, driven by William Loftstedt
coming in fourth.
I'ialahea Are Close.
As it was a three-lap handicap race
the boats were started off according to
the onler of their possible speed, all
boats having been tested and their re
stive highest speed determined. The
Flirt got away first. The Swizzle re
reived the starter's un about ten sec
onds later and the Wawego shot away
n the start of the race about the same
time after the Swizzle. The Bash
ful Koy was held back for about 40
seconds and the Rudy was forced to
Eire all the rest of the boats a start of
" over two minutes, or nearly half a lap.
Prspite the heavy handicap. Skip
per" lloone negotiated the distance in
such good time that when the boats
reached the home stretch of the last
lap he had overtaken all but the Swiz
zle and lost out only by inches. But
for :i broken propeller received on the
trip up to Columbia beach the Rudy
might have had a walkaway. The win
ner's time was. 14 minutes and 33 sec-
' or.ds.
The scratch runabout race was an
other hummer, with the Rudy coming
into its own. finishing first in II min
utes and 5 seconds.
The Bashful Boy crossed the line sec
ond, with the Wawego taking third
place. The boats raced prow and prow
throughout the distance and the winner
was in doubt until the end.
Kl Tor Lead Meld.
Although not co fast as some of the
other events on the programme, the
cruiser handicap race did not lack in
competition. The Kl Toro got away
first in the race and held that position
during the two laps' of the race, finish
ing first in 14 minutes and 33 seconds.
ileorge Barden piloted the Kl Toro.
The Spear IV, driven by Ray Neuber-
Kr. took second, with the Nogera,
piloted by George Southwick, finishing
third.
If the race had gone another 100
yards the Spear IV might have won,
as it was cutting down thu distance
between it and the El Toro steadily.
The Nog era was also booming along at
a fast clip and coming to the fore.

of the World War
It Is Not a Defense or Justification
of Germany's Crimes
It Is a Frank Confession of the Most Colossal Failure of Might
Against Right in the World's History. His
Revelations Will Startle the World
Ludendorf f, arch-Teuton militarist, admits that from 1916 on the German cause was hopeless.
He lays bare the impotence and weakness of both the German armies and the imperial statesmen.
The Teuton side of the war has been shrouded in mystery and up to the present time, no one who
knows has spoken. We know so much of our own side of the great struggle. Germany was so
silent about her internal troubles and defeats, always emphasizing her temporary successes that
it seemed at times as if the balance of victory was all on her side. But Ludendorff discloses the
real condition of Germany just before and during the war. His story will be completfs the his
