THE WORLD OF SPORTS I SOLDIERS WILL RE TAUGHT THE ART OF BOXING ; By JI.MMIE DUN (Manager-of Johnny Kilbane Feathcr . weight Champion) (Written for the United Press) CAMP TAYLOR. Louisville, Ky., 'Jan. E Boxing is one of the world's greatest Bports and I believe It will play a great pnrt in the war. In the front line trench of France men. I take the boys fifty at a time, four time3 a day. By this method I have given the rudiments of boxing to more than 1000 soldiers since I came here. I work from a platform, with my class ot fifty standing in front of me. I teach them how to hold their hands, how to turn their bodies, and how to move their feet to get the most .from each action. Their bodies must be behind every punch.' They must learn how to step away from a punch. I there is much hand-to-hand fighting. The average man when roused to ! don't let my classes do any boxing at fighting anger reaches out for his ad- all. They must first learn the fundn vcraary, grabs him, and then they (mental principles, following my hands lose time rolling around to see which ; as I outline the movements, is the stronger. If those men were trained boxers that would never hap pen. If one of them should be a train ed boxer it would be an easy mailer for him to smash out with a right or left to the point of the chin and then it would be curtains and the prison cage. It is just as good as giving your enemy an anaesthetic. The system I use in teaching the boys of Camp Taylor how to box is a simple one, yet to understand it thoroughly it should be seen. I can't begin to tell the grace of action, the coordination of muscle and eye, and the other things. I begin with class of 200 soldiers. I train these for two weeks and then I begin on a new class of the same size. When the boys leave they are detailed around the barracks to teach other It is my belief that any young man who knows how to box will make a great bayonet fighter. He knows how to move, how to Step back, how to shift, and how to get his weight be hind the point when jabbing with the bayonet. He also knows how to avoid the thrusting of his enemy, a distinct advantage. I once saw a boxer give another man a baseball bat and bet his adversary he could not touch him with it. The boxer took the bat away from his opponent three times with ease and never was touched. That taught me far more than anything else ..could the value of boxing as a defense.

TONIGHT ONLY Star Theatre Inventory Will Be Nationwide and Will Be Most Complete Ever At tempted In County. What reserves pt food are being held in the local market will be de termined by the government in a survey which will start immediately after the first of the year. The "in ventory" will bo nation-wide, and, to facilitate the taking, the bureau of markets of the United States depart ment of agriculture, which has the war emergency food survey in charge has placed agencies with its three local offices. The office's are at 310 Wbrchcster building, in charge of L. M. Jeffers; at 226 Oregon building, in charge of R. L. Binger, and at 318 Livestock Exchange, North Portland, in charge of C. E. Gibbons. Copies of the schedule have been mailed from Washington to most dealers in food materials in Portland. The names of now concerns, and of a few others, were not nvailable, how ever, and arrangements have been made, therefore, to supply locally. Applications for schedules should not be made to the local agencies before January 2. This will permit sched ules mailed from Washington to reach their destinations and thus eliminate duplication. . .... Persons Required to Report' ' The local agents of the survey point out that the act of congress providing for the war emergency foor survey requires every dealer in, and manu fncturers of foods or food eommorit- ics in lots substantially greater than family supplies, to fill out a schedule and mail it to the chief of the bureau of markets, Washington, D. C. by January 10, 1918, and fixes the pen alties for failure to do so. This in cludes not only all wholesale and re tail dealers in foods and feeds, public warehouse men and food and feed manufacturers, regardless of the size of the stock which they hold, also thos in charge of hotels, restaurants, commissaries of industrial concerns, schools, institutions, etc., providing that their stock on hand have a value of $250 or more. Even wr' facturers are included who use a food product in the preparation of another product which cannot be considered a food, such as bottling, chewing gum and drug manufacturing concerns. Holders of foods of the classes named above who have not received a schedule through the mail by Janu ary 2 or who neeu additional copies should obtain them from any of the above nnmed offices. The war emergency food survey will be the most comprehensive inventory of foods ever made in the United States. It's purpose is to show the total stocks of food and food materi als on hand in the country so that the public and the officials of the government may have the necessary information on which to base plans for conserving and distributing sup plies already on hand, and for pro ducing the food needed next season. To Show Total Food Holdings To a large extent the food survey will be carried on by menn3 of sched ules or qucstionaire. In addition, in ventories will be made of stocks held by several thousand representative families in various parts of the country. The average holding so de termined will be used as a basis for an estimate of total holdings by famil ies throughout the country. The total quantity of food stuff3 held on farms will be determined by estimates made by the bureau of crop estimates of the department of agriculture. The addition of the stocks in the hands of these three classes of holders will give the total supplies in the country Dec ember 31, so far as jt is possible to reckon them. To furnish figures with which to check the accurcncy of tho mail survey of Btock held by the hundreds of thou sands of retail food dealers the bureau of markets, through the active cooper ation of local officials, will make a store-to-store survey of tho mail classes of such dealers in 43 selected counties which best represent their typo geographically, industrially and economically. These counties range from Cuyahoga county, Ohio, embrac ing tho city of Cleveland, to rural counties having no town of more than 2500 population.
