OBEGO.M AGRICULTURAL. COL
LEUE, Corvaliis. July 23. (Special.)
Two 6-year-old boys who were
caught stealing a swim in .the college
pool Saturday evening by a local "of
ficer of the peace" were chased
around the slippery edge for an ex
citing race until one was cornered
on the ten-foot board, much to the
enjoyment of the 800 spectators at
the water carnival put on by Coach
K. H. Kutherford.
The cries of satisfaction coming
from the balcony when the officer
was pushed off the board by one boy
lifter the other had dived in proved
that the boys had the sympathy of
the grandstand.
One of the interesting features of
the programme was a life-saving ex
hibition by Joseph Hedges of Eugene,
one of the division members of the
Hed Cross corps of life-saving units,
and an assistant.
Introduction Is Kffectlve.
An effective method of introducing
his classes was used by Coach Ruth
erford. The little girls' class marched
in dived in and swam across the
tank. In turn came the little boys,
elementary girls, elementary boys,
then the women and men, until more
than 300 swimmers were "on deck."
Just about that time the "peace
officer" discovered a man sitting on
the balcony railing. He ordered the
man off and a struggle ensued, both
falling into the pool. Uustav Dunkel
borger. Instructor in the school of
music, who happened to be fishing
near by. won a hand-embroidered
hathing suit for pulling both com
batants out with the aid of his bam
boo pole.
Girls' races, men's races, human
chain races girls against men and
candle races. demonstrating all
strokes from the American crawl to
the oyster stroke, were on the pro
gramme. In an old-clothes contest
four men dived to the bottom, fully
clothed, and undressed to bathing
suits before coming up for air.
I'aney IJIver In Action.
All lights except those on the floor
of the pool were turned out for sev
eral minutes while a Hawaiian or
chestra presented several selections.
Only the lights twinkling up through
the water and the stars twinkling
through the glass roof illuminated
the tank room.
Diving exhibitions were started by
the. smallest hoy and the smallest
girl in the classes, who dived off the
ten-foot board. Then came Coach
Rutherford's fancy diving team, con
sisting of Marguerita Livingston,
Aniline ('.alt. Dan Butler and Don
Livingston, all of Corvaliis. and Miss
Lillian Hansen of Portland. Joe Rey
voids of La Grande and Homer Hulsey
of Portland, who exhibited form and
poise equal to that shown by cham
pions, according to critics among the
spectators. Nearly every stunt on
the repertoire of an expert fancy
aiver was cleverly done by this class
some of them school children.
A canoe tilting contest between
"Mush" Hjolte, giant basketball cen
ter, and "Shorty" Layton resulted in
the downfall of the "mighty Mush,"
a thrilling rescue being effected by
"Kid Slick." a diminutive swimmer
of the Corvaliis public schools.
A fast game of follow-thu-leader.
participated in by nearly every one of
the 300 persons, and more Hawaiian
music ended the programme.
GOLF DEFINED BV BANKER
Pnvid Fortran Says Old Scotch
Game Is a Lifetime St inly.
David R. Forgan. the Chicago
banker, who learned his game in
Scotland and who has done much to
st imutate t he game in Chicago dis
trict, has recently given a definition
of polf. which is as follows:
"Golf is a science the study of a
lifetime, in which you may exhaust
yourself but never your subject.
"It is a contest, a duel or a melee,
calling for courage, strategy and self
control. "It is a test of temper, a trial of
honor, a revealer of character.
'It affords the chance to play the
man and' act the gentleman.
"It means going into God's out-of-doors,
getting close to nature, fresh
air, exercise, a sweeping away of the
mental cobwebs, genuine recreation
of the tired tissues.
"It is a cure for care an antidote
to worry.
"It includes companionship with
friends, social intercourse, opportu
nity for courtesy, kindliness and gen
erosity to an opponent.
"It promotes not only physical
health but moral force."

Tresident of Baseball League Says
Clubs Are Solvent.
TACOMA. Wash.. July 23. Rumors
that the Pacific International base
ball league was on its last leirs were
denied here recently by Louis H. Bur
nett, Tacoma. president of the organ
jaation. The league will play out its
lull schedule, which concludes on La
bor day.
"I wish to dispel these rumors,
Mr. Burnett said, "for 1 am sure they
do the leap; ue no good. Let me state
1 am positive every club on the cir
cuit will finish with colors flying.
"There have been several trying
places, but every thing" is smoothed
over and the crucial points passed.
Juv k Kithet, the Victoria club backer,
lost considerable this year, but is go
inK through. The Tacoma club is in
g-ooj shape. Vancouver will go
through because Bob Brown, its man
ager, is a good business man, and
Yakima, the fourth club, is in good
condition."
Xo Crime to Steal Ball in Pittsburg,

keep balls knocked into the grand
stand without fear of being molested
by police, according to nn order is
sued by Robert J. Aldt-rdice. director
of public safvty. Director Alderdice
made the ruling following threatened
damage suits against police who
placed three fans under arrest for re

diamond. Policemen stationed in the
park are there to preserve order and
protect the public, the director said.
Hereafter any action taken against

Aid ex -dies Mid
THE American Golfer calls atten
tion to the wider range of golf
tpcs tn Great Britain than in
the United States, this applying espe
cially to occupations. Over here we
get largely the young collegian or the
ex-colle ian or the business man or
the professional man who has taken
to golf as his main recreation.
Things are different in Great Brit
an. Here are a few examples. When
Fred Wright was matched against
Mark Seymour in the first round at
Hoy lake it was found that Seymour
was J-ord Northcliffe's gardener. Yet
in spite of this fact he was one of
the best amateurs in the empire.
When Bobby Jones was almost ousted
by Hamlet, it was discovered that
Hamlet ran a small tobacco shop well
off the regulation beat of trade.
When Ouimet was beaten by Hodg
son it was learned that the latter was
another artisan golfer with practical
ly no income above his living ex
penses and yet one with a long con
nection with the game. And then
came the final winner, Willie Hunter,
postoffice clerk, and son of the Deal
professional.
Fancy Income Not Needed Abroad.
These are types well known in Brit
ish golf but which the A. G. points
out are almost unknown over here. It
is merely further proof of the wider
range which golf covers in Great
Britain where a. fanny income isn't
necessary for extended time to play.
The dues there are light, often a mere
pittance.
"There Is time to play 18 holes
after S o'clock at night after one has
finished his work in the garden, on
the farm or at any other Job," says
the A. G. So it is therefore a better
thing for golf. The high cost of the
game is still its one great weakness
in the United States where public
courses are entirely too few and too
far apart and where there is very
little encouragement for the poor man
to follow the game.
Unkn ClOKcd Sunday.
At the same time it should be re
marked that in the United States
there is a generalness of Sunday play,
which goes far to offset the evening
advantage enjoyed by the Britisher.
In Scotland, owing to the Sunday
law, the links are shut to golfers one
day in seven.
Attention may .also be profitably
called to the iftct . that in the west
there has been a development of golf
ers on the public links which attests
the value of the city municipal cours
es in producing fine players. Richard
E. Bockenkamp, 21 years old, who re
cently won the championship of the
St. Louis district, is a public links
product, as is James S. M anion, an-
The Cadillac has always stood, and stands now, the world over,
in a class all its own.
In Europe England especially no other American car is ever
mentioned, or even considered, in comparison with the
Cadillac.
And in America, you know the overwhelming preference in
which it is held by owner and non-owner alike.
And yet, strangely enough, those cars which strive for com
parison with the Cadillac have always been, and are now,
higher in price.
So there is a double sense a greater and a lesser sense In
which the Cadillac is clearly the most notable motor car value
In the world today.
The greater value-of the Cadillac on which Its reputation
rests is its superior performance, and that immunity from
the need of constant tinkering, adjustment, overhauling and
repair which renders it unique among motor cars in economy.
i
This is the true value-test beside which the lower first price
the Cadillac owner enjoys is of little or no consequence.
Nevertheless, it is pleasant for the Cadillac owner to know
that in first cost, as well as after cost, he enjoys the greatest
motor car value in the world today.

other high ranking golfer of the
around City. In Eddie Loos, now of
Chicago, the Van Cortlandt park city
linRs can claim to have brought out
one of the best pros of the country
An interesting liBrht on this differ
ence in golfing types of the two coun
tries was thrown in 1912 by the an
nouncement of Abe Mitchellr.who had
Just finished as runner-up to John
Ball in the British amateur cham
pionship, and had entered for the
L-nited States amateur at Garden
City. Mitchell did not cross the water,
yet he did not officially withdraw
so that up to the last day or so it
was thought that he might enter the
championship. He was even paired
! with Philip V. Carter, then the Met
i ropolitan junior champion.
Mltehell Alleced Rranon.
Some tinie later Mitchell was quoted
as saying that he did not cone to
America because he had been told
that, being a plain workingman, he
would not be welcome in the Ameri
can championship. Jt has never been
disclosed from whom Abe received
this information. A few months later
Mitchell became a professional. He
is now in this country with George
Duncan and may ascertain at
first hand whether his alleged views
as to American ideas of artisan golf
ers was correct.
The multitude of golf courses in
Britain, where the charges are only
nominal, has a great deal to do with
the more varied classes of players.
In this country it has long been con
sidered that golf is a rich man's
game.
BET RETURNED SURPRISES
Gus. Wilson, Carpcnticr's Trainer,
Gets $250 Just Like Finding It.
Gus Wilson, trainer for Georges
Carpentier, had a good laugh the day
after the Dempsey fight. He had
gone down to Great Neck to send a
cable to his iamily in Paris, when a
messenger boy stopped him in front
of the railroad station, saying:
- "Mr. Wilson, I have a telegram for
you.
Gus tore open the en'elope. believ
ing it to be a message for Georges.
Instead it was J'J50 in bills.
The week before Gus placed the
money with a man in Great Neck to
bet at 3 to 1, and, believing it had
been placed, paid no more attention
to it.
"They are honest people here In
Great Neck." eaid Gus when he read
the message, which said:
"Dear Mr. Wilson: Unable to place
bet; am returning your money. Joe."
EIGHTH OLYMPIAD PLANNED
French Government and City ol
Paris to Furnish Funds.
Organization of the eighth Olympiad
In 1924, which has been awarded to
Paris, will be entirely in the hands of
the French committee acting under
the general direction of a central com
mittee, notwithstanding the fact that
the French government and the city
of Paris will furnish the necessary
funds. Gaston Vidal. under-secretary
of state for physical education as
serts: 'The Intention is to make it a great
manifestation of sport, such as never
has been seen before." M. Vidal added.
The. site for the stadium has not
yet been chosen, but In all probability
it will be on the old wall of Paris, in
the neighborhood of the Bois de Bou
logne. .
Memorial Planned for O'Loughlin.
Directors of the American league
have voted a fund for a memorial to
the late "Silk" O'Loughlin. one of the
most famous of major league umpires.
The site and nature- of the memorial
are still under discussion. The "Strike
tuh!" of O'Loughlin was famous
thronghout American league parks
for years and it is said the decisions
of O'Loughlin received fewer protests
from players than those of any other
major league umpire. .

2 DAY SPEEDFEST SUITED
MOTORCYCLE RACES AT ROSE
CITY SPEEDWAY AUGUST 6-7.
M-eet Sponsored by Over the Top
Post, 81, Veterans of Foreign
Wars; Proceeds for Band.
A two-day speedfest of motorcycle
races is slated for the Rose City
speedway on Saturday and Sunday,
August 6 and 7. Over the Top Post,
SI, Veterans of Foreign Wars, is
sponsoring the meet and the proceeds
will be used for the purchase of uni
forms for the post's band of 90 pieces.
This band is the largest of its kind
on the Pacific slope.
F. 13. Holland, an expert on race
tracks, is at work on the track now
and declares he will have it in the
best shape it has ever been for these
races. The rough spots are being
taken out and the track oiled. Every
thing will be in tip-top shape, so far
as the track is concerned, to make
the coming race meet the best ever
held on a local track:
Among the many motorcycle racing
stars who will compete in the races
is Ralph Hepburn, winner of the re
cent national championship race at
Dodge City, Kan. .in winning the
Cornhusker classic, as this race is
called, Hepburn broke the world's
records for one, two and three hun
dred miles.
Hepburn is a native of Los Angeles
and this is his first appearance on a
race track in the northwest. He is 24
years old and has been riding in fast
company on southern and eastern
tracks for the past seven years. He
broke into the limelight a couple of
years ago by hanging up a then new
world's record for the 200-mile mark
on. the Ascot park track. rue rec
ord he made at that time stood until
this year, when he -lowered his own
mark.
An application for a sanction for
the coming races has been forwarded
to the Motorcycle and Allied Trades
association, which is the national
boardof control of motorcycle com
petition. This will insure the accept
ance of any recorcfc which may be
made in the meet. ' x
Entry blanks have also been for
warded to all of the fastest riders in
the country, and many of them are
expected to compete in the coming
races.
The world's record is 246, made by
C. K. Armstrong of San Francisco in
1914.
C. W. Schleborn of Chicago was
third in the individual shooting. Fol
lowing Springfield in the team match
came San Francisco. Seattle, Port-'
land and Denver, which indicates that
the west has something on the east in
the revolver shooting line.

Dempsey Victory Called Culmina
tion of Triumphant Brutality.
The president of the Spanish acad
emy, Jose Ortega Muhilla, gives his
views in the newspaper "A B C" on
the Dempsey-Carpentier fight.
"The victory of Dempsey over Car
pentitr." he writes, "constitutes the
culmination of triumphant brutality.
The second of July, 1921,, will be fa
mous in the annals of barbarity.
"Two men sell their health and dig
nity to a curious multitude which pays
them to destroy themselves with
punches," continues Senor Munilla.
"They do not fight because they
hate. Salaried combats represent the
most infamous prostitution, those
who speculate thereon represent the
vilest lust, while those attending rep
resent the stupidest cruelties.
'"Phe notable publicity given to this
seems to Indicate an intention to ex
port similar spectacles to Europe. We
