These titles will be de cided In the annual Astoria regatta-to be held July 3, .4 and 8, , The Oregon Wolf II Is expected to retain the title held by the Oregon Wolf, , .lohnny Wolff, designer and builder of tlio-sensational speed boat, although he refuses to announce the exact time It can make, states , that It , does better ' than 40 miles per hour, which Insures the followers of the motor' boat game . that the new craft is mors than a, suo- The Oregon Wolf H. will have Its th(rd trial run at Wilsonvtfle next Bun . day and It is' expected that 'ft better iden of its speed will be obtained. .In the 20 foot class this season, Portland will ' be represented by the Swastika, Hyack, Vogler's Boy , and Spear II.'; The engine of the. Swastika : is being Installed In, a 16. foot shell, which is beng constructed by the Dixon ' brothers and B. F. Cox, but If this new hull is . failure the engine will be put back In the Swastika. Captain Milton ' Smith, owner of the Vamoose, is con-1 structlng a new SO foot boat, and it Is said that the engines or the Wigwam II - will be Installed. If this report is true, this craft should capture the SO foot ; championship. There are many It foot boats entered Under the colors of the club tlijs season, . and It would be difficult to name Just what craft would have the best chance to win the title. Captain E. W. Spenr cer is backing a firm which Is build ing two 16 footers of the Baby Reliance! models. Another boat which will attract at tention this summer is the J. F.

Ray" Schallc, the young American As soclatlon catcher, has been almost the , . .,. . t. sensation of the American league this season. He shows even better lorm than In the 23 games he played with the White Sox at the end of the season Of 1912. He finished the season with a batting average of .286, but this year he "promises to go far beyond that In the first 16 games of the year he bat ted .165, leading the club. Schalk's throwing this year Is per fect. He has a" snap something like PITCHERS WITH By R. A. Cronln. Sizing up baseball pitchers Is akin i.pkln5 the winner in a .0 horse race. If 60-60 on judgment and luck. The neophyte oftentimes can tell. as readily as the hoary-rheaded veteran. The best I example of this cams under the writer's (observance during the. last spring train- ln trJp t0 California. Ther- wtr tw0 promis,ng young pitchers on the second team of the Chi cago White Sox, one a Texas Caucasian and the other a North American Indian. Kid Gleason, the veteran, was in charge of team No. 1. while Manager Jimmy caiianan. nimsexr. ivauuiuuiu No. 1. Bn an old owl as uieason couldn't sea the Indian, but he thought the Texan could be developed into a gTeat ipitcher because he was a south paw. Down in Texas they regarded him aS a SlOW CUrVO .piicnei, . wim else tOommend him. Gleason talked it intrt hm that he was a fast ball pitcher. jie was given all eorts of chances to 1"kw" nrin, trainln trio CI11U i;cqultted himself creditably. On n!ttAi himself .creditably, un-me other hand, the Indian was used only occasionally, as Gleason was trying oui Lefty Morgtdge, since shipped to Min neapolis, and Sllm,,pouglass, now with Ban 'FrUnclsflj:""''J . , He Pitched to Batters. PHchinar to batters during the warm up period was about the hardest Job that the Indian did. Over at Oakland one afternoon - the writer had his first glimpse of this unusually dark-skinned Indian. He is or sdoui tne same iuBy build as Henry Fernon,' tne uaiuana southpaw, although a'trlfie taller, per hap.. There was pretty action to his delivery, even though he was. only engaged in tossing to Rollle Zeider, Jack Fournler, Pink Bodie, Davy Jones and 80me of the others for. bunting practice, Ha looked as if he might jhave great speed and tremendous endurance, the gift of his outdoor life.

The photograph shows him throwing with his toes even, proving that he can snap the ball with out the swing needed by most catchers. If Schalk continues as he has begun, he may equal old. Billy Sullivan, for years the greatest catcher in the Amer ican league, a catcher who was usually mentioned in the class with Johnny Kling, of the Cubs, and Roger Breana han, of the Giants. LATENT ABILITY FOOL "VETS" this Indian In the box scores of the Cin cinnati games without realizing that he was a redskin. Out of the eight games won by the trailers of the National league, six of them ' were due to his pitching. Only last Thursday he beat Boston 11 to 6, facing 16 of the braves for his sixth straight victory since the season opened. His name is Johnson. Gleason's pride. Lefty Russell, has been going along nicely, too, but you must remember that Russell has a bet ter club behind him than Johnson. Rus sell has gotten away with a majority of Jhia games, but no" pitcher In either the American or the National league has a more impressive record than Chief Johnson. While we are on the subject of .pitch ers, there Is another twlrler that a lot of the Portland fans are discussing. He Is Tom Seaton, drafted from The Port land Coast league club by the Phila delphia Nationals In the fall of 1911, and now the young sensation of. the National league. He was Philadelphia's biggest game winner In 1911, and his long string of early season victories has kept the Phillies In the lead of the present National league pennant race. There were scores of Portland fans who could never warm up to Seaton. WbyT Because they could not analyse the cause of his defeats. If Seaton possessed the luck of Tyler Christian of the Oaks, he would not have lost over half a dozen games during his two full seasons with the Beavers. Go back. over the record books and it Is easily seen, why the mlddle-slse right-hander, THE RECORDS IE IN Yalf, Bull Dogs Upset Predic tions by DowningvHaryaTd, Track, Field Team,, ' ' (United rneaa. teaaefl Wlre.l New Haven, Conn., May 17.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES The Lincoln High School Students association will elect In the. near ru tur th football manager for the 1911 season. Another member of the board be elected to fill the vacancy caused by the absence of Louis B re in ner. i The Hill Military academy track and field team wanted to arrange a dual meet with the Lincoln high squad. but Manager Hutchlngs refused to con sider the challenge. 1 Pitcher Graves of the H1U Military academy has leftfor his home in Spo kane and the team was lorcea 10 re instate Pitcher Van Zandt Outfielders Stinson and McClellan quit the team. More base were stolen In the Lin coin-Hill game last Tuesday than in any orevious contest played this season. Columbia managed to swipe nine bases. but Lincoln bettered this mark Dy one swipe. It is an Injustice to play a game on the academy field, especially to the op posing pitcher. Every dingy fly to left field goes for a double. -. . West, the Eugene, Or high school student, in the - state interscholastlo meet, broke the northwest, state and University of Oregon inierscnoiasxio records In the Javelin throw. He threw th imear 161 feet. 4Vi Inches. The former record, .held by Abraham of Spokane, was 149 feet, 10 H Inches. Bounds, another Eugene student, equsled the state's broad Jump record of 11 feet, 1 Inches held by Dan Kelly. was not as high in the percentage as Krapp, Gregg, Steen, Lively, Abies and others. Ha lost two-thirds of his games because the? were kicked away behind hinr. or because his Ynates made no runs on his one, two, three, four and fivethit pitching.- If you go back, you will find that Seaton was the hardest man in the league In 1911 to hit safely. On the other hand, the Beavers invaria bly made a lot of runs behind the pitching of other alabsters, and many of their victories were simply waltzes. Aa Snlffna to Jones. T writer remembers a. conversa tion one afternoon In 1911 with Fielder Jones, who was then thinking seriously of purchasing an Interest in a major league ball club, and who was watching the work of the Coast leaguers quite critically. "Seaton Is an enigma,", said Jones,, who used to' sit behind the plate when Seaton was twirling. "He has the big gest and the sharpest breaking curve in the league, but you can see !1t front the moment It leaves his hand. I don't understand why he gets, away with the few hits that he does. I'd like- to go down there to the plate and look his curves over some oay just to see wnat he has that fools the batters. While the Portland fans were over looking Seaton, the players in the Coast league were giving him all the recog nition due a great. hurler. When you mentioned any of the stars, the wise batters would cut In with ""Now, don't forget that this boy Seaton has some thing on that ban." - dusky weight hurler and jumper, heaved the hammer 162 feet 3'i Inches, better ing by some three feet the 159 feet 10 Inches made by Carroll Cooney of Yale ln"191t, but he failed to come up to ex pectations In the broad jump which was captured by a Yale novice, Bobby Matthews.
