TRY FOR RECORDS
High Speed Looked For at Sat
urday's Meet.
COURSE LIGHTNING FAST
Grand Struggle Anions Finest Types
of Cars Both American and For
eign Scheduled for Splendid
Ixing Island Speedway.
Followers of automobile racing In Amer
ica are marveling at the wonderful speed
obtained by stock cars over the Vander
bllt Cup course In the sweepstakes event
held October 10 when Herbert Lyttle driv
ing a eo-horsepower Italian stripped stock
car ooverad 234.6 miles at the rate of
64.25 miles an hour. Not only is this a
record for Btockcars but It beats Hem
ery's record In a 110-horaepower Darrao
made In the 1906 Vanderbllt Cup race.
H emery covered 800 miles at the rate of
61.44 miles an hour.
When It is possible for a regular stodc
ear to better this feat over the new course
on Long Island it is hardly possible to
Imagine the speed at which the big racing
cars will travel when they come together
October H over the same course. The
European record Is 66.26 miles an hour
made by Siss in the 1906 Grand Prix and
predictions for the coming Vanderbilt rac
are that this record will be shattered. The
new course is nndoubtedly the fasteest In
America, 13 miles of the 25 being over a
specially prepared cement road and the
remaining 13 over oiled roads.
An excellent list of entries both foreign
i i.Mn ha hppn secured and de
spite the fact that the Savannah race on
Thanksgiving Day will be a strong rival
In Importance it looks like this year wouia
witness the biggest Vanderbilt race ever
held.
The Vanderbilt race was first held in
1904 on Long Island and since then has
been the biggest motoring event of the
country. Each year with the exception of
1907 when the race was not held foreign
cars have been sent over by the dozen
from Europe to take part in the race.
American manufactures have always been
on hand with a formidable array of en
tries to oppose the foreigners but have
never been able to get better than sec
ond place. Racing was practically new In
this country when the Vanderbilt race
was started and it Is no surprise that
American cars could not compete with the
more nearly perfected machines which
the foreigners sent over. At that time
and for two or three years following
our American manufacturers made
radical and fatal mistakes In the de
signs adopted for building their racing
cars and each year would bring out
new experiments which would go down
to failure Inevitably. Some very Queer
looking freaks were entered in the
race from year to year, such as two
four-cylinder motors being coupled to
gether Into an eight cylinder. The re
sult of this experiment was the break
ing of the motor In the center.
The race next Saturday Is expected
to be the fastest one ever held, and
since the sweepstakes event, when a
stock car averaged 64 miles an hour,
predictions for the time of the winner
have been as high as 75 miles an hour.
The course will permit of any speed
being maintained, and as the curves
are all well banked it seems likely that
this will prove true. .
CHANGE OFL0CATI0N.
Belmore, MacDougall, Moores Co,
.who make a specialty of rebuilding
and repairing automobiles, have moved
their garage from Sixteenth and Alder
streets to the corner of Seventeenth
and Alder streets. The new location
contains three floors and Is leasedfor
five years.

suffrage a failure. Nineteen women were

NORTHERN OUTFIT SLOW
J-JL
Many Classy Players . eduate
From Here aid Take Bank With
the Best Talent in the
Big Eastern Teams.
BT W. J. PETRAIN.
Interest in baseball has subsided since
Wulnoeav vhan th CThiCaxrO Cubs WO II
the world's championship from Detroit.
Tnis contest, wnue not as uirmms
the grandstand finishes of both major
leagues, afforded the fans an opportunity
of whacking one another on the back with
the Idiotic Inquiry: "Who Is going to .win
today?"
Chicago's victory over Detroit has
stopped, this nonsense for at least six
months. Of course the Pacific Coast
League race is still on, but It Is not much
of a race save from the viewpoint of the
tailenders, for Los Angeles has the best
of the pennant argument.
Speaking of the Pacific Coast League
brings to mind the fact that the North
west League continues to dwell upon the
"merits" of Its little one-horse circuit as
compared with the Pacific Coast circuit.
According to the sporting editors of Seat
tle, Tacoma and Spokane the average fan
would be led to believe that the Pacific
Coast League was composed of the rank
est bush talent, and that the league, while
styled Class A, Is not any better than
certain Class D organizations.
It is almost Impossible for the Nortlsern
town experts to concede that the Pacific
Coast League occupies a commanding
position in baseball and that Portland en
joys much more prominence in the base
ball world than does any of the Washing
ton cities.
Certain (juestions of policy connected
with the policy of the Pacific Coast
League have not always been tMndoned,
but the fact remains that It Is the fastest
minor league In America, as shown by
oonsultlng the list of famous players who
have graduated from this league to the
"higher tips." If the Northwest League
can boast of a single player who has
shown real class in the major leagues his
name Is not recalled.
For instance, can the over-zealous Seat
tle, Taooma or Spokane dopesters boast
of players of the caliber of Hal Chase,
"Doc" Newton, Eli Cates, "Big" Bill
Burns, Mike Mitchell. "Larry" McLean,
Bill Hogg, Tommy Sheehan, Bill Sweeney,
Pat Donohue, "Gawy" Cravath, Rube
Vickers, Harry Lumley, and a number of
others who might be mentioned? Higgln
botham is the only Northwest League
player, aside from Joe Tinker, who is to
day playing In fast company, and he be
longs to a club that is decidedly of minor
league caliber.
.Perhaps Seattle will claim Bill Hogg,
Harry Lumley and Johnny Kane, but all
three of them graduated from the Pacific
Coast League.
On the other hand it must be remem
bered that the Northwest League of the
past season was largely made up of cast
off Pacific Coast League players.
By way of proving this contention, take
Vancouver of the Northwest League.
Among the players of the team, which
won the championship, are two pitchers
who failed to hold up their end in the
Coast League. "Rusty" Hall, formerly
with Los Angeles, and George Engle, a
Portland castoff. Both were brilliant suc
cesses with the champions of the Lucas
organization. Then comes Tacoma with
Bte Butler, who was found wanting in
the Pacific Coast League, and immedi
ately after joining Tacoma three 'years
ago became one of the most successful
pitchers In that league. Tacoma finished
second in the 1908 race.
Aberdeen had Califf and Pernoll as
pitchers, and Charlie Moore, Julie Streib,
"Deacon" Van Buren and Eddie House
holder as regular players, none of whom
was fast enough for the Pacific Coast
League, but who are listed among the
classiest ball-tossers of the Northern
League.
This year the Pacific Coast League
promises to-do even better than formerly
in the number of high class players who
have been secured by the major leagues,
for ten recruits are scheduled for debut
among the big fellows from this organiza
tion next Spring. Four are from the Port
land team Hal Danzig and Tom Madden,
who join the Boston Americans; Tom
Raftery, with Napoleon Lajoie's speedy
Cleveland bunch, and Lanky Bob Groom,
the clever twlrler, who is slated to fling
for Washington next season. The other
coasters for faster company next season
are: Roily Zeider, the Seal shortstop,
and Beck, the elongated second baseman;
Dolly Gray, Rube Ellis and "Pug" Eas
terly, of the' Angel tribe, and Deacon
Wright, the Oakland pitcher. The above
ten players represent as classy a bunch
of talent as was ever sent to the big
leagues by any other organization in the
National association.
FIRST CLUB BOXING MEET
MAT AXD MIT ARTISTS TO MIX
NOVEMBER 6.
Multnomah and Seattle Athletic
Clubs Will Have Some High-Class
' Talent Listed In Events.
The first interclub boxing and wrestling
championship tourney of the Northwest
will be held at the Multnomah Amateur
Athletic Club on Friday night, November
6, when the Seattle Athletic Club's repre
sentatives will compete with Multnomah.
The Seattle lads are of the usual, high
class timber, and the Multnomah men are
showing up well enough at early practice
to warrant the prediction that there will
be some Interesting goes witnessed on
the night of the tournament.
Most of the Multnomah entries ap
peared at the recent benefit tendered Joe
Acton, the veteran wrestling instructor,
who has retired from the game. On that
night several youngsters who promise to
make things lively for the other North
western lads during the championship se
ries participated. Both Wrestling Instruc
tor O'Connell and Boxing Instructor Ren
nick have some splendid material from
which to produce champions, and the
hopes of the clubmen are pinned to sev
eral promising boxers and wrestle ra.
Another Item of interest to local sportB
men Is the approaching match between
Wrestling Instructor O'Connell and Dick
Hart, an Eastern man, who Is said to
have a splendid record on the mat. Many
of the Portland wrestling fans witnessed
O'Connell In action on Acton night, and,
basing their opinion on his showing then,
are willing to back him against Hart.
The latter Is a husky chap, who pos
sesses the utmost confidence In his own
ability. O'Connell and Hart have signed
articles to meet at 150 pounds October 23,
and both are now in training for the
match. The winner of tills bout will
probably be matched with "Strangler"
Smith, another local wrestler of consid
erable prowess. With these two matches
In view, and the Northwest amateur
championships scheduled, the wrestling
game promises to furnish lively doings
for the fans of Portland during th
coming Winter.
