THE WORLD OF SPORTS
TED.THYE
Ml
ENTERPRISE, Jan. 27. (Spec
ial.) The wrestling match here last
night between Ted Thye of Spokane
and Paul Kinney, of Enterprise, re
sulted In a draw. The men put up
nn hour of splendid wrestling but
were so nearly matched that neither
one could secure a fall. There was
' not a very good crowd to see the
match but the fans who were present
were very enthusiastic and well
pleased. There will probably be a
return finish match under the aus
pices of the Moose lodge hero next
month.
N. Y. BELIEVES DECISION
FIGHTS WILL AID SPORT
By H. C. HAMPTON
(United Pres3 Staff Correspondent.)
NEW YORK, Jan. 28. New York
state still yearns for a law that will
logallzo boxing and -really 'make it a
decent sport. Some law that will
give the sport a standing in the
largest community in the country is
being eagerly sought.
Assemblyman Marty McCue, a
former squared circle inhabitant, is
one of the trongest of supporters
for a bill and he has ramcd another
.for presentation to the legislature.
Back in the days of the Frawjey
law when some of tho greatest fights
In the history of the game were
pulled off under the ten-round no
dcclsion farco law that -had been
' spread on the books, there was too
much chance for petty graft. There
also was too much chance for stall
ing boxors to make life unpleasant
for tho suffering public. The law
died a natural death. Any new bill
that passes and is expected to have
a life of more than just a few short
months must combine other features.
And that is the goal for which legis
lators are striving.
Whether or not tho new law will
have a decision feature can't be pre
dicted. It hasn't that embodied in
it as It now stands, but there aro cor
tnln members of the New York Btate
legislature who believe allowing de
cisions would make tho game clean
er and insure a departure from the
old complaining days.
It used to be that a champion

Portland markets!
WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW
PORTLAND," Jan. 26. The
strength which has boon accumulat
ing during the week In all depart
ments of the market at tho Portland
Union Stock Yards is such that It
shows practically all sales at the top
end of the quotations, and a strong
upward trend. It seems Impossible
that buyers will bo ablo to top tho
upward tendency until the winter
feed lots shall have been emptied.
The demands have increased from
day to day but tho supply is insuf
ficient to meet1 the demand. The
cow market has shown another ad
vance of 50 cents, extending up to a
0.00 top, with steers going at former
quotations, and an 11.00 top. Quo
tations in thiB department are as fol
lows: Med. to choice steers, 10.35
11.00; good to medium steers, 9.35
10.35; common to good steors, 7.75
9.25; choice cows and heifers, 7.75
9.00; common to good cows and heif
ers, 6.50-7.75; ennnors, 3.00-6.00;
bulls, 5.00-7.60; calves, 7.60-11.00;
stockers and feeders, 6.00-9.00.
Hogs are active at steady prices,
and the demand in this department Is
Just about balanced by , the , supply.
All Indications point toward a strong
market in the hog department as
well as in all othcra, for the coming
week. Tho following quotations are
current In the hog market: Prime
light, 15.75-16.00; prime heavy, 16.-75-16.10;
pigs, 13.75-14.50; bulk,
16.00.
The sheep market continues to
gather strength, the market having a
very active tono in tha face of heavy
shipments for tho latter part of tho
week. Lambs went at 15.50, weth
ers at 10. 50-14. 50; and ewes at
11.00. Conditions at this writing
show an extremely healthful outlook
for the Portland market and ought
to bring heavy shipments in all de
partments of the market. Condi
tions In the sheep markot show tho
following prevalent prices: Western
lnml3, 15.00-15.50; Valloy lambs,
14.50-15.00; yearlings, 13.00-13.50;
wethers, 12.50-13.00; ewes, 10.00
11.00. o
