THREE SMALL BOATS
JUDGED 'PROSPECTS
'Johnny Wolff's New One Ap
r pears Well Balanced and
May Be Surprise,
Five and possibly right speed boats
will represent the local motor boat club
In all the Important motor boat regat
tas to be staged on t lie Pacific coast
next season. 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.

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. Kills and Page were
both out when Kruegcr blngled to cen
ter. Metzger lifted one to left, and
Jqhnson scored Krueger with a single to
right A

has piloted five winners. The world's
series between the Athletics and Giants
starting October 7 will be the "rubber"
for the championship of the world be

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.

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.
