s HLHHiLSWIMMERS TO GO TO VICTORIA Team Picked at Recent Tryout at Club Will Enter in P. N. A. Championships. MISS PAYNE TO CONTEST Diving Experts From Portland In 6titutlon Are Expected to Make Good Showing in British Columbia. As the result of the tryout staged at the Multnomah Club tank Saturday night, July 20, the following? team will represent the Multnomah Amateur Club in the P. N. A. championships at Victoria. B. C, on August 21; O. J. Hos ford, Myron Wilsey, Locke Webster, ILouis Balbach, H. W. Buckland, Miss Thelma Payne and Mrs. Constance Meyer. Mrs. Meyer and Miss Payne, women's National fancy diving cham pion, will take part In the fancy div ing contests and Mrs. Meyer will also enter the high diving event for women. There seems to be no doubt in the mind of Swimming Instructor Jack Cody that Mrs. Meyer is the greatest fancy high diver in the country and whether or not he is right will be seen In the next National fancy high div ing championship. Now that Multno mah Club has Miss Thelma Payne in the role of the new National indoor diving champion and Helen Hicks, Irene Pembroke and Virginia Pembroke in the 10-foot springboard event, should Mrs. Meyer capture the National hi5h diving championship the Winged M Institution would truly have a corner on America's women's fancy diving titles. O. J. Hosford, Myron Wilsey, Louts Halbach, Locke Webster and II. W. Buckland, the men who will represent Multnomah Club, are all well known find should give the many entries in the P. N. A. championships plenty of com petition. New Club Member In Sprints. H. W. Buckland, the newest member of the club's swimming team, will enter the 100-yard back-stroke race and the EOO-yard grind with his teammate, O. J. Hosford, 500-yard champion of Oregon. Balbach and Wilsey will be seen in the eprlnts. Wilsey will also swim the 200 yard race, while Balbach will enter the high and fancy diving events. Balbach is one of the best fancy divers on the Pacific Coast and it would not be sur prising if he copped the title. Locke ("Brownie") Webster, the club's star water polo man, is entered In the breastroke and the plunge for distance. Webster is the Northwest champion in the plunge for distance. All of the men that will go to Vic toria are expert water polo players and will tangle with the best teams in this section of the country for the water polo team championship. There are a number of crack teams in British Co lumbia, and the club boys will have to fcattle at their best to win the title. JO. J. Hosford will captain the team. Portland Marathon Swim Planned. The next big swimming event in Portland will be the annual Multnomah Club marathon swim in the Willamette River on August 10. The annual mar athon swim is. always the biggest out door aquatic event of the season in Portland, and is yearly witnessed by thousands of fans. In the past the course of the swim has been from the Oregon Yacht Club moorings to the foot of Salmon street, but this year Jack Cody has decided to shorten the swim a. good deal and make it faster, so in stead of being along the old course it will be across the river, starting from Kellogg's boathouse at the foot of Sal mon street, and swimming across the river and back. The distance will be a litle over 900 yards, making it an Ideal race. Instructor Cody is looking for a large entry list and a great race. Up to date the following well-known swimmers liave sent in their entry blanks: O. J. Hosford, Albert Enegrene. Frank Kier nan, Jr.. G. W. Smith, Harry Eddas, Bill Etemple and Myron Wilsey. At least 10 more swimmers are expected to en ter before the closing time is reached. .mere win also De a swim for women across the river and back, starting at the same time as the men's marathon. The women's annual Golden Gate wim, won several weeks ago by Miss Francis Cowells, of San Francisco, ap pears to have been as much a test of trrit and stamina as of speed. High teas, extremely cold water and a sweep ing cross tide made conditions so bad that 15 of the 32 entries were forced to abandon the contest before com pleting the course. It took Miss Cowells one hour and 14 minutes and 23 seconds to finish, although she has made the trip under a half hour in fair weather. Lundy Langer, worlds swimming re cordist, formerly of Los Angeles, more recently of Honolulu, is now in the eervice and stationed at Camp Gordon, Ga. He returned to competition last week, after a year of inactivity and at tended a Red Cross water carnival at Atlanta, literally running away with the 220-yard race in two minutes and 42 seconds. The 220-yard worlds swimming record of 2 minutes and .21 2-5 seconds, set recently in Chicago by Perry McGilli vary. of the Great Lakes naval train ing station, in defeating Duke Kahana moku, ranks among the most notable echlevments in the history of water sports. The time beats by 2 4-5 sec onds McGilllvary's own former interna tional mark open water standard, and Is a cut of nearly three seconds for the classic distance. J Poll Perrltt Likes Stories. Poll Perrltt, who owns a farm in Louisiana and employs thereon a large number of darkies, is fond of negro stories and tells them remarkably well. He always has a large fund cf them and provides no end of amuse ment for the other Giants with his tales. His latest story deals with colored soldier in the trenches. It seems that the trooper in question disdained to use his rifle and bayonet In close fighting, preferring to depend on his trusty razor, which had been ground to an exceedingly fine edge and In the use of which he was particu larly adept. One day, so the story goes, a wave of Germans advanced toward the trench in which this darky was crouched and as one of them ap peared at the edge the son of Ham rose up and sliced, at the Hi n's throat. "Missed me," ejaculated Fritz with a Erin. -Missed er, hey?" was the cTarky's comeback. "You Just try to move your haid and see if Ah missed yer." C. "W. Leonard, of Boston, is getting together a very select stable of trot ters. During the North Randall meet ing he paid 110,000 for the 4-year-old filly Selah Baird and last week at Kal amazoo he gave $25,000 for the 3-year-old colt Chestnut Peter, which will in all probability start favorite at all of the big futurities. Mr. Leonard also owns the good horse On the Rhine, by Bingen, now ia Cox" stable.

Mr. Tower declares that the birds seem to be standing the winter sea sons of Klamath County in good shape. He has seen them near his ranch on numerous occasions this year.

Hornsby in Slump. PLAYERS IN PUBLIC EYE Cardinal Shortstop, Greatest In League Last Year, loses His Crown to Cubs' Brll- . llant Shortpatcher. Appearing on the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs are two young rival shortstops who have been very much in the public eye this season. One of the lads, Charlie Hollocher, is well known to Portland and Pacific Coast fans as the shining young shortpatcher of the Portland Beavers in 1917 and now with the Cubs. The other chap is Roger Hornsby, of the St. Louis Cardinals. Hornsby has created much comment because of his failure to live up to the reputation of his 1917 performances, when he was regarded as the prize package among the young inflelders of the National League. Charlie Hollo cher, of the Cubs, is a St. Louis boy who has jumped into the spotlight for merly occupied by Hornsby because of his sensational all-around work with the Bruins this season. Hornsby Best Last Year. A year ago the Cardinals were pen nant contenders because Hornsby was breaking up game after game with his long hits and making the pitching easy for his side by cutting down hit after hit for the twirlers of his club. Horns by has been in a hitting and fielding slump all season and that's one reason the Cardinals have tumbled into last place instead of again figuring as a pennant contender. On the other hand. Hollocher has made a pennant factor for the Cubs. This brilliant young player, cavorting for the first time as a big leaguer, has taken the place formerly occupied by Hornsby. Major league fans re mrd Charlie as the prlxe shortstop of the two big circuits. He Is a fielding demon, as well as a dangerous, hard and timely hitter. He has outdone Hornsby in every department of the game. Hollocher Important Cos;, whiu the Cubs boast a great pitch i.. -r. rf Mnar Fred Mitchell, of tha chica.ro team, makes no secret of the fact that Hollocher has proved an Important cor in convertlnr the 1917 second-division Cubs into a first-place aesrresration this season. The unexpected showing of the two players recalls to mind tne numerous stories last Winter regarding Horns by and the exorbitant bids alleged to have been offered for his services by Charles Wee gh man, president of tha Cubs. Tha Cubs had acquired Orover Cleveland Alexander and Bill Kllle fer. one of the greatest batteries In baseball, but at that time it looked si if the Chicago Infield would be a rsg ged quartet with tha exception of Hol locher, whose ability Portland fans well knew. But Weeghman had his doubts about Holly's ability and was DURING PAST WEEK BOTTOM, LEFT TO RIGHT MISS eager to procure Hornsby. It was reliably reported that he had offered 150,000 for Hornsby, putting the St. Louis inflelder in the class of "$50,- 000 beauties." But President Branch Rickey, of the Cardinals, refused to listen to any of these offers. TEXXIS TOl'RXAMEXT TO BEGIN Leading Players of Southern Cali fornia Gather at Lon Beach. LONG BEACH, Cal..

' WICKERSHAM IS BEATEN Loser Makes Strong Start, but 'Weak en. Winner Taking Last Three Sets Miss MacDonald Cap tures Women's Honors. The famous Fiske cup, one of the most widely known and talked of trophies in the country, finally went out of competition, when Walter Goss yesterday afternoon defeated Brandt Wickersham in the finals of the men's singles in the Oregon state champion ship tournament at the lrvingtoa courts. Goss won the cup on two previous occasions and only needed one mors victory to get permanent possession of the cup. which has been in competition, for a period of 19 years, and which has many well-known names at the tennis world carved on its surface. Goss won the state championship in last year's play. Brandt Wickersham opened the game with a rush, outplaying his rival by a long margin. Whatever Goss served or returned seemed to come square into Wlckersham's racquet only to be returned to some corner of the court where Goss least expected it. W irkrraham Takes First Two. The first set closed with Wickersham on the long end of the score, 4-6. In the second st Goss again was out played and Wickersham once more was returned victor, capturing that set, 3-6. Here, however, Wickersham broke down under the terrible strain and Goss captured the third set, 6-4. It looked for a while as if Wickersham also would win that one. The puce, how ever, was too much for the former Portlander, and tloss won the next two sets easily, 6-1. 6-2. The game, as a whole, was not very sensational. Both men were steady, but neither one of them did anything out of the ordinary. Each one relied on his experience and knowledge of the game, Wickersham being more er ratic than Goss and not so spectacular. In the semi-finals in the men's sin gles. Goss defeated Neer in three out of four sets and Wickersham took three straight sets from l'aul i?teffen. MlM MsrDossld Flays Steadily. Mayme McDonald, star racquet wlelder from I'uset Sound, won the women's singles handily, when she de feated Miss Stella Fording in the finals In two straight sets, 6-4, 6-2. In the semi-finals. Miss McDonald de feated Mrs. t'ushing of Oakland. Calif. Mrs. Cushing was a little off her came and although at times she displayed some of the speed of the opening day, she was rather erratic and Miss Mc Donald did not have much trouble in beating her. In the finals of women's doubles, Mrs. Mulder and Mrs. Wentworth were defeated by Mrs. Cushing and Miss Mc Donald in straight sets. 6-2. -S. The local players played fair enough ball, but they were pitted against ai op position that was far superior to any thing seen on local courts and w.-re forced to bow to the better team. Mrs. Cushing and Miss McDonald lorm one of the greatest women's doubles team ever seen in Portland, and their play ing has been sensational throughout the whole tournament.
