Captain Alien has the Elainore la

fuel the El.inore la always in fine
sVape and Allen does not confine his
truisiny; to the summer, but finds
mui:h enjoyment during the winter in
making trips jp and down the river
in the comfortable little craft. Cap.
tain Allen. vho also owned the Yar
row, laat winter installed a 4-cylin-der,
4-cycle motor, overhauled her,
and recently sold her to Q. G. Seely,
who has Just bought a houseboat at
the Oregon Yacht ciub. where he will
live and keep the Yarrow.
Since seeing Marion Boone's sea sled
performing last Sanday, Kkipper Allen
thinks the boathoutfe vacated by the
Yarrow would be a fine place to build
one for himself. 'Tis funny how
eatchinr that "fast stuff" is.

Orth Mathiot's new racer, the In
fluenza, is nearing completion and
will soon be in the water? She is to
be a V-bottom one-step hydroplane
nd will he driven by a 3-cylinder
Pierce-Budd motor. Her dimensions
are HVi by 4.4 feet. In her construc
tion Orth has Frank Vosler as a
consultant. It is interesting: to watch
these two old-timers in the &am
build a boat they want to get speed
out of. Orth will say, "Frank, do you
think it will be all right to put a nail
In here?" and Frank will get down
and squint alonsr the lines and rub
his h1id over the board and talk
about friction and resistance and then
Orth will do the same and after prob
ably half an hour they will drive a
nail somewhere.
" The Bashful Boy II has been remod
eled during th3 winter and will ap
pear this year as a monoplane. Pre
viously she was a V-bottom. A 4-cyl-irder
American motor 59i by B bore
and stroke is being installed which
will give her about 45 horsepower.
The raied doors in the forward deck
ing, to make room for the lartrer
motor, are very srtistic and the paint
ing and varnishinir is the finest on
any boat at the clubi which speaks
well for the ability of the "ould man"
Skipper Billy Lofsted called in to
assist in th.e transformation. A new
windshield has also been added to the
equipment.
It is the present plan to have the
snnual up-river cruise to Newberg on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June
4-5-6. . As this is always the first
cruise of the season it excites more
interest than any other and marks the
time the boats are all In readiness for
the summer. On account of the many
new racers being built, this cruise is
looked forward lo with more than
usual anticipation, as it will be a try
out to set a line on the speed and
endurance of the "i.ew ones." .
The Wisdom, queen of the motor
boat moorings, is having a pilot house
built. Previously she has been navi

Bonehead Runner at Second
Starts Argument.
CmPirc Saved From Kecenity of
. l-ivins Decision on Sew Point,
but fexpertn Are Much Inter
ested In Ponalbllitle of Situa
tion. LAST year a play almost came up in
the American league that created
much discussion as to what would
have been the proper decision had it
actually been put up to the -umpire
for a ruling. Before going into the
!-tails of the play, J must i.dd that a
bit of boneheaded running on the part
o one of the runners made the play
possible.
Two men were out with runners on
first and second. The' batter hit a fly
to short left field. The runners start
ed to advance at thj; crack of the bat.
The runner on second scored on the
hit. which fell safe to the ground. The
runner on first when midway between
second and third made up his mind
that the ball would be caught; inci
dentally he labored under the impres
sion that only one man was out. Since
there were two out there wasn't a
ti.ing in the worH for him to do but
keep on jnhning. The fact that he
believed there was only one out
caused the mixup.
The moment that he felt certain the
ball would be caught, be turned and
started back for first, hoping to there
by prevent a double pUy. He touched
second on his way back to first.
When about miiway between first
and second on the way back, the
coather at first base managed to
make it known to him that the ball
had not been caught. He wheeled
around and started for second again.
The left fielder got the ball on the
first bounce and made a fast throw
to second base. The ball arrived at
that base a fraction of a second ahead
of the runner. ho slid in feet first.
Had the fielder who was standing on
the base held the ball, there would
have been a sure enough argument.
Fortunately for the umpire the sec
ond baseman Iroppod the ball, which
nullified the situation that had been
created by the "bsne-headed" base
running of one of the athletes.
If the second base man held the
ball, which arrlvtd at the base a
fraction ahead of the runner, would
it have been a force play, which
would have retired the runner? If it
was a force play, would it have
erased the run that had been made
. by the man ordinarily on second, be
cause the rules explicitly state that
no run can be scored on a third out
that is a force out. Since the legality
of the run depended on whether the
umpire would have regarded the play
as a fdree. there was much Interest
in the play While 1 didn't work in
the game in which the play came up,
the managers of the two teams in-
volved spoke about the play to me.
One was positive it was not a force
play, the other equally positive that
It was.
I expressed the opinion that it was
not a force play, and that It would
have been necessary for the fielder to
touch the runner with the ball before
he got back to second in order to
retire him. The mere fact that the
, ball arrived there ahead of him was
. not in my opinion enough, since to
me the play was not a force play at
that particular base. The rules state
that a base runnjr can only acquire
the right to a base by touching it.
and he shall then be entitled to hold
that base until he has touched the
next base in prop3r order or has been
forced to vacate it. In the play cited
I -figure that the moment the runner
touched second he became the occu
pant of that base. It alone granted
him exemption .from being put out.
Second, base was his station even
though he did make a break for first.
Since he was the occupant of the bag
to my way of thinking, it was lmpos-

ONE of the most spectacular and
vivid photoplays which has yet
shown In Portland is "The Vir
gin of Stamboul," the Universal super
production now at the Kivoli theater.
Increasing its colorful atmosphere
is the prologue which has been ar
ranged by J. C. Stille, manager of the
Rivoli, and C. M. Koerner, manager of
the Universal-exchange. With a lux
urious background of rich oriental
rugs and draperies, the value of which
is estimated at $10,000, a harem scene
has been produced. " Ftfur girls in
Turkish costumes are posed In care
less postures indicating relaxation,
rest and comfort. A fifth Turkish
girl (Miss Willberta Babbidge) comes
into the oriental scene and proceeds
to give life to the harem and its
drowsy members with some exotic
Egyptian dances. The effect is ex
tremely apropos of the photoplay
which follows.
"The Virgin of Stamboul" is the
story of a Turkish beggar girl, prim
itive in her wild, fearless and uncon
ventional beauty as in her frank, pas
sionate likes and dlsitkes. Her love
for an American officer commanding
an Arabian tribe is the center about
which an intrigue is woven which in
volves the infidelity ef a favorite wife
tn th Rheik of a larife harpm The !
production as a whole is fascinating
not only from the point of plot situa
tions but also for the wild and dra
matic little world in which its story
takes place.
Kreisler's "Liebesf reud" is the xylo
phone solo played by L,udwig Preston
as the concert number. He follows it
with Victor Herbert's "Oriental."
Both numbers have been enthusiastic
ally received.

N'o "other player is permitted to

he is arbitrarily suspended for ten

hands. He cannot take either hand
from the ball unless he is intending to

GREEK WINS MARATHON
P. TRIl'OCLIDAS EMULATES
COOTRl-JIAX'S EXAMPLE.
American 3 5-Mile Road Classic
Draws Field of 60 Runners
for Olympic Tests.
BOSTON. April 19. The American
Marathon road race, commemorating
the feat of a Grecian soldier who ran
from the plains of Marathon to Ath
ens with a military message, then
dropped dead, was won today by a
native of Marathon, Peter Trlvoulidas.
A resident of New York, but still a
subject of Greece, he proved the
fleetest of the (0 runners. The classio
25-mlIe race was the official test for
election of the United States repre
sentatives at the Olympic.
Trlvoulidas' time, eight minutes
slower than the record, but fast con
sidering a partly adverse wind, was
two hours, 29 minutes, 31 seconds.
Second to the Greek was Arthur V.
Roth of the Dorchester club, Boston,
who won the race in 1910. Last year's
winner. Carl W. A. Linder of Qulncy.
was third. William Wick, also of
Quincy, who was second to Linder a
year ago, was fourth, and Edwin H.
White of Holy Cross Lyceum, New
York, was fifth. Thousands of spec
tators lined the course from Ashland
to Boston.
Trlvoulidas ran a . steady race
While Jataes Henigan. New England
10-mlle champion, was setting a fair
ly stiff pace over the first half, the
Greek lay behind, conserving his
strength. With the race half run.
the steep Newton hills forced Heni
gan to drop out and sent others back
and Trlvoulidas steadily worked
through the field. He was running
second to Roth at Lake street, six
miles out and at Massachusetts ave
nue, Boston, he passed his rival with
a friendly smile. He finished strong.
Trlvoulidas is 29 years of age and
has been in this country three years.
The times of ths next four men
were: Roth 2:30:21; Linder 2:33:22;
Wick 2:34:37 1-8: White 2:38:10 2-5.
WI'COY TAKES 7TH BRIDE
EX-CIIAMPIOX PUGILIST WIXS
19-YEAR-OLD DANCER.
Five-Wire Record of Nat Goodwin
Is "Beaten By Two
Full Lengths."
LOS ANGELES. Cal.. April 19.
(Special.) Norman Selby. better
known as Kid McCoy, for years one
of the best-known prisef ighters of
the country, was married today to
Mis Carmen Browder. a dancer whose
professional name is Dagman Dal
gren. The ceremony was performed
at the Broadway Christian church,
Rev. Arthur Higby officiating.
The ex-king of the middlewelghts
gave his age as 41 and the bride
confessed to 19 summers. This is the
seventh time McCoy has entered the
matrimonial ring and, as he remarked
when obtaining a license, has the
famous record of Nat Goodwin "beat
en by two full lengths."
"Cupid" Sparks, clerk of the local
license bureau, issued the fifth license
to Mr. Goodwin and insists that had
McCoy come to him earlier in his
career he would have avoided much
domestie trouble, for. said Sparks,
"Nut's fifth was his last one."
The fighter left the squared circle
several years ago and for a time con
ducted a training camp for business
and professional men. Recently he
has entered moving pictures and it is
understood has some valuable con
tracts with the producers.
Mr. and Mrs. Selby will reside in a
newly furnished bungalow in Holly
wood, near the studio where McCoy
is employed

OLD BATTLESHIP TARGET
Iowa to Be Sacrificed to Secret Ex
periments in Wireless Control.
WASHINGTON. Unless plans of
naval experts fall the old battleship
Iowa in its day pride of the Ameri
can fleet and flagship of the late
"Fighting Bob" Evans will be used
as a moving target for modern dread,
noughts, its movements directed by
powerful wireless apparatus.
Details of the project are being
withheld for the present. Other na.
tlons are considering numerous ex.
periments with wireless and none of
them is taking the world into its con
fidence. Uncle Sam likewise proposes
to keep his own counsel until he has
attained the end sought.
The' Iowa is about 30 years old
and is of no further use as a fighting
machine. The "shooting up" of the
veteran battleship, therefore will be
a slight loss to the navy. On the other
hand, by sending the,Iowa out to sea
under wireless control and maneuver
ing the vessel as if she were In battle
with our more modern ships, valuable
data will be accumulated for future
naval use. -
Most targets of this kind in the past
have been fixed. Targets also have
been towed by other ships at the end
of long rabies. But a target moving
under such conditions furnishes only
a minimum of action. If plans work
out as the experts expect,, the Iowa
will move around as If she were under
her own steam with a full crew.
The contrivance to be employed in
the experiment is that of John Hays
Hammond Jr. for the wireless control
of torpedoes from land, with some
modifications. For example, it is
probable that the movement of the
Iowa will be controlled not from
shore, but from a warship.
Other radio experiments are also
under way. The battleship Ohio has
been fitted with new and powerful
wireisss instruments and during the
next few weeks will engage in ex
tensive experiments. Other nations
are working along this and other
lines. In fact, radio promises to be
come more and more important in
future warfare on both land and sea.
After the armistice the war depart
ment allowed it to become known that
the army had perfected radio control
of airplanes and had sent them as far
as 100 miles.

Their nicely balanced weight

The greater power of Dual Valves
and twin-spark, ignition permits ac

traffic jams unscathed.
Their improved gear shift, al
most automatic in its action, in

Faithful brakes that grip and hold and a steering system
that responds to the lightest .touch these are some of the
ways by which the Pierce-Arrow owner is safeguarded
