I NEWS AND GOSSIP OF I
! 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.
