COM TITLES SHOULD

' h ' r '
Astoria Regatta to Tell Pretty
.Well . How -Various Boats
Shape JJp Jhis1 Season,
Three of ths Pacific coast speed boat
titles should be won this year by crafts
owned by members of the Portland Mo-
tor Boat club. 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. Kable
boat It is 26 fef,t long and Iwlll be as
rest appearing a craft as one would
care to see. Her owner is working as
-hard' as possible In order -to have It
completed In time to enter the Astoria
events. -,
The Bstsy B has been installed with
a new engine of higher power and its
owner, Dr. Brown, expects It to make
better time than ever before.

that of Jimmy Archer, the great Cub
catcher, for he is able to throw to
bases, without moving back his right
foot to get a swing. 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

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

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.

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.

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.
