The squudron of speed ers will he headed by Captain K. W. Spencer's sensational 20 footer, Oregon Kid, which holds the National 32-foot championship. If the Oregon Wolf 111 proves suc cessful it will also be included in the ' flltCt of speeders. C, F. Atwell's 20 footer, Atwell; E. W. Spencer's 16 foot i Pacific coast olmmplon, Raby Bell and 'Ray Nueberger'a Spear II compose the fleet with the exception of the "possl- . battler." The possibilities are a new 20 foot boat for Captain K. W. Spencer, a iiO footer for C. V. Cooper, who owned the Van Blereli ami the 16 footer, which la now being tried out by AI Klingbell. Captain Spencer is undecided whether ha will build another epeeder. It Is al most certain that if the Van Blerck is recovered from the bottom of the Mis- " slssippl river. Cooper will build a more substantial hull for the big 120 horse power engine, which wag formerly used In the Chanralee and then transferred to the Van Iilerck. . The J 6 footer which Al Klingbell is trymj out looks like h torpedo boat. In a trial run last Sunday, Klingbell SI4 not open it up for some unknown reason, but from the way It was trav eling with only part of its engine work ing tt looks s though the boat ought to deliver the goods. The day of the 40 foot speed boat Is past. Tractically every racing boat on th Pacific coast Is less than 30 feet long. There was a time when it was thought that speed boats ought to be at least 40 feet long. The one step hydroplane Is becoming more popular on tho Pacific coast each year and it is expected that this model will be used exclusively on the coast , sext season. If these crafts are successful In the coast reaa'ttas next season It Is likely that at least four of the number will Jnvade the eastern regattas. .. Following the success of the plain, unpolished western speed boat in the big regattas in the cast this summer, It lit expected that the eastern boat - builders will design their crafts after the toast type. Johnny Wolff, the famous Oregon 'designer and builder, thinks that his .present boat will surpass any lie has built. 'The craft is nicely balanced and jbeliaves very well in the water. On Us initial speed trial last Sunday, although tho engine was not tuned up properly, Wolff made close to 40 miles per hour. The engine was making close to 1000 revolutions. When it Is working right It will turn over 1500. NATIONAL LEAGUE Rucker Shuts Giants Out. New York, Sept.

VES ARE RETURNED VICTOR IN LOS ANGELES T BY 2-1 Sacs Make Good After Rather Poor Work on Two Preced ing Days, Los Angeles, Cal., Sept. 27. A curtain lecture by Manager Harry Wolverton this afternoon before the game, star twirling by Klawaltter, and a mistake in the seventh by Johnson, gave the Wolves tho contest by a score of 2 to 1. The Sacs surely made good today, after some rather poor exhibitions on the two preceding days. The second feature to the solon victory was "Dutch" work on the mound. Except for Maggcrt's work at the plate, the Dutchman Would have had a string of ciphers lined up in the Angel hit column, but Maggert hutted in with a couple of bingles and spoiled the dope. The Dillonltes grabbed off three safe tics in the seventh, aud should at least have tied up the tally but for an appar ent bungle by Johnson when he singled with two on and then tried to draw a throw to give Metzger a chance to tally but George was caught easily when he tried the stunt, and tho Angel chances were gone for good. In tho first inning Gregory sent al most every ball through the same groove, a point waist high, and Just over the outside plate. When they varied enough to cut a corner, they went for a hit; when they, stayed out side, it meant a walk. Young started it off by hitting one that Gregg could reach and was out to Howard. Kenworthy drew a pass. Mo ran tripled, Kenworthy scoring. Jimmy Shlnti walked, Lewis drew a single to center, and Moran scored. Lewis took second on the throw In. Halllnan grounded out to Howard, and SlUnn was caught at the plate. Lewis reached third on the play. ' The Angels counted their Blngle tallv in the seventh.

McGraw de feated Mack In the series of 1906. The Athletics came back and beat the Giants in 1911. The series this year will settle the Issue so far aa a best two out of three argument is concerned McGraw declared tonight that he was confident he would have his com plete lineup to send against the Ath letlcs. Larry Doyle Is now out with an Injured shoulder, due to riding in an automobile presented to him by fans Fred Snodgrass haa a "Charley Horse" and Jack Murray Is nursing a bad ankle. McGraw is confident Doyle will be able to play second, but la prepared to meet tho emergency if It develops that Larry has strained muscles which might interfere with his throwing. An X-ray examination today revealed that no boies were broken and Mrs. Doyle said that she was sure Larry would be ready when the bells ring for the big series. "Larry isn't badly hurt," said Mrs, Doyle. "The doctors say he will be able to play within a few days." Should Doyle fall to be In shape! McGraw will start with Shafer at sec ond and Herzog at third. Murray and Snodgrass are not In such bad shape. Murray's ankle has been bad for some time, but a little rest now should put him back on his feet The soreness should work out of Snodgrass' leg In a few days.

TEMPORARY Tl HOOKS INTO TIGERS In Ninth Inning Rowdy Elliot Drops Fly and Venetians Drop Game That's All. San Francisco, Sept. 27. With the score standing 1 to 1, the ninth Inning one third of the way into its final half, and the bases full, Jtowdy Elliott drop ped a throw from Luigt Lltschl this afternoon, and Captain A. W. Cook of the Oaks tapped the plate for a 2 to 1 victory over the Tigers. The tiny tap to Lltschl whjch re sulted so disastrously for the Venetians was engineered by Manager Gus Ilet ling. Former Manager Carl Mltze sat in the grand stand and really looked hap py. For the first time since ho was persuaded to be the leader of the trajis bay hand ot basehallers, his mind was free of responsibility. So Wind Hap Hogan, who is a mere spectator these days by the edict of President Bnum, sat side by each and simply had a hel uvtatlme. Officially it is announced that Mltze applied for a two weeks' leave of ab sence this morning. He needs that much in which to arrange his plans for the future. And not a whisper was there that the relations between Honus and his bosses, Messrs. Cook and Leavltt, are In the least strained. Having thus deprived their flounder ing ship of a first officer, the big bosses temporarily promoted Hetling to the post while the job of field captain, hitherto held by Hetling, was turned over to Shortstop Cook. Perhaps the change In leadership had nothing to do with It, but the Oaks had plenty of fighting spirit today and with Oily BUI Malarkey to escort them along; the way they played a somewhat different varie ty of baseball. Gasoline Gus' managerial debut was tremendously successful. The Oaks won, and they showed a bit of speed, and a whole heap of determination. Further more, Gus himself was responsible for putting over the winning run. The Tigers scratched the plate In the first Inning, for which the bingling bat of Brashear Is to be blamed.

BRILLIANT NOW First Football Game of Sea son to Be Played Week From Wednesday, The past week has brought to light many facts concerning the Interscolas tlc Football league situation. The Jef ferson team, rated as one of the strong, est teams two weeks ago, Is now consid ered one of tha weakest Tha Portland Academy team Is showing; up unusual ly good. The Washington team is with out a suitable quarterback at the pres ent time and Lincoln was forced to use Mulkey, Us star halfback of last season, In the pivot position this year. Colum bia Is rather weak In the backfleld and the Hill team 111 weaker than It haa been for a number of seasons. The first game this season will be played a week from Wednesday after noon between the Hill Military Academy team and the Washington high school eleven on Multnomah Field. At the pres ent time. Coach Moore of the Cadets has not definitely decided on tha positions of anyof the players. There was a report current in the high school circles that the Hill team would drop out of the game, but this "has been emphatically dented by the school of ficials. Lost Best Kan. The caase of Jefforson'sj weakness Is due to the fact that none of last sea son's players with on or two excep tions returned to school. Hendrlckson and his cousin, who is said to be a won der In the backfleld, are due at the Jef ferson sohoo tomorrow. Cecil Stemler turned out for practice) last week, but is undecided whether he will return to school. Coach Rlnehart has been work ing his head off with the Jefferson players but Is without any good mate rial save a few good players. Wilcox, at the end, looks very good. Kyle and MeBurney In the backfleld are two other strong players. Coach Earl Is looking for a quarter back. At tho present time he is with out one and has no Idea who he will try out. for that position. Edris and Ball have both been given a chance hut neither of them seem to satisfy 1'id. Taige, who played Independent ball v. '!'i Lents last season. Is out with the squad, but is very awkward In handling thn ball. rive Men. Showing1 TJp. In the backfleld, Washington has five players, who are showing up exceeding ly well. Wilson, a fast halfback, looks like a fixture. Normandln, Davis, Coch ran and Gorman are also showing up extra well. The line positions renter, guards and tackles will be filled by Edrls, Phillips. Walker, Johnson, Tegart Morrow and likely Herron. There are numerous other players who will be given a chance to show their worth with the first team during tha week. Scrimmage practice at Washing ton was held for the first time last f hursday afternoon. Lincoln's team has practically been decided. Coach Borleske played his boys at Astoria yesterday and are sched uled to piny the Centralla high school team next Saturday. The Cardinal lineup Is Howard, center; Fink and Bush, guards; Schaufler and Hanson, tackles; Oroce and Freeman, ends; Mul key, quarterback; Groce and Booker, halves, and Newman, fullback. The Portland Academy team appeared very strong during the week's practice. The new men who registered at the academy look good to Coach Hurlburt. Meade, who played with the Topeka. Kan., high school, registered at the academy last week. He Is a halfback and it Is said he will make the other players hustle to hold their own with him. ' Will sTtart orlmmatrs. At present. Coach Hurlburt Is work ing his players on preliminary work. He plans to begin scrimmage during tha coming week. Giltner and Bulgin are trying for the center position. Thti guards and tackles will be selected .from Krause. Porter, Boss, Layton. Bkstrom and Kingsberry. Therkelson, who played on -the 1911 team. Is back at school and stands an excellent chance of landing an end position. Wllmot. Whltmer, Woodcock and Coe are also trying for end positions. In the quar terback position Klngsley. Therkelson and Shournberg are showing up well. The halves will be Meade and McClung with Brlx at fullback. The return of Bernard, Columbia's big guard of last season, to school to morrow, will give Coach Calllcrate one of the strongest lines In the league. Callicrate at present Is worrying about his backfleld. Malarkey, Mulrhead, St. Marie, Pha lan, Balck, Qulnn and Phllbln are being tried In the halfback and fullback posi tions. Phllbln will most likely be used at center. Bob Malarkey Is showing up good in the halfback-position. St Marls will be used at half If Suefert can hold down the quarterback position. right Wot Ona Sided. On the end Columbia has Nlles, Nixon and Leonard. The tackles and gunrds will be taken from Kelly, Kurtz. Hay maker, Wallace O'Brien and Bernard. Bernard and Wallace O'Brien have their positions cinched.' Coach Moore at Hill has a bunch of green material to work with and It will probably take one whole season to devel op It Stewart at center looks Ilka a strong, heady player. In the backfleld. Hill has Briggs, fullback; Graham 'and Robinson, halves. No quarter has yet been discovered In the ranks of the Cadets. The fight for the championship this season is not going to be a ona aided affair; four and possibly five teams will have an equnl chance at tbe title. If Washington ,1s able to get a headyquar terback, its chances for the tltla will get big boost. At the present tnomont, Lincoln .looks Ilka the best bet, but tha reason for that- is because Borleske haa his team selected. Dobtes' TInyers Win. Seattle, Wash., Sept. 27, The Uni versity of.
