THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY. DECEMBER 8, 1916. 19 BOXING FANS RAGE AT POOP, DECISIONS Referee Kendall Excites 700 Spectators to Vent Feel i ing in Wild Protest. MITCHIE ONLY GETS DRAW .Nelson Is AH but Knocked Out by His Opponent "Young Jack Johnson." Has Better of Contest With Sommers in Main Go. Exceptionally poor officiating marred n otherwise rattling- good boxing bill t the Rose City Club1 gymnasium last night. About 700 fans gathered around the ring and If Manager Merrill had liberated a ewarm of starved bees ln-t-ide the building ho couldn't have ieightened the anger of the crowd. Without further excorloratlons the results follow: Al Sommers and "Young Jack" John son, draw. Valley Trambltas won decision over liddie Palmer. Pete Mitchie and Billy Nelson, draw.) Jack . Allen and Walter Knowlton, i ra w. Shell McCool knocked out Carl Mar tin, sixth round. Kd Olson won decision from Willie Kvanf. .Decision Smells to Heaven. The decision of Roy Kendall, referee. In the Mitchie vs. Nelson affray proved the particularly nauseating one of the renins. Mitchie earned as cleancut a decision over his taller opponent as anybody ever won. For four rounds the boys mixed cautiously and nobody could have ailed, it other than a draw. In the fifth Mitchie opened up and before one minute of milling he had Nelson sprawling on hid back, dead to the world, glassy as to eye, and all but out. Under the city ordinances a knock down ends the round and this was all that saved Nelson from a complete knockout. Mitchie tried hard to stow Nelson away in the sixth, but with Hilly hanginsr on for dear life It couldn t he done. Then, as the gong sounded the finish, and with everybody agreed ns to winner. Referee Kendall suddenly startled the fans by raising hands of both boxers for a draw. Joe Swain, ex-Portland middle weight, took a "run-out" powder and was not on the scene to battle Al Som mers in the scheduled main event. Man ager Merrill, of the Rose City Club, was at the station to meet the last train which would have brought Swain here in time for the contest, but the butcher boy did not show up. Johnson Has Best of Bout. "Young Jack" Johnson substituted. He wobbled Sommers through six rounds and Tommy Burns, ex-heavyweight champion, who refereed the last two bouts, called the affair a draw. In the opinion of most of those present. It is just as well for Sommers that Swain took the "powder." Johnson should have had the decision. It was very evident that Sommers did not pass his time in North Dakota boxing. His judging of distance was jioor and he didn't hit Johnson square ly over a half dozen times during the contest. Johnson scored a knockdown just as the bell rang that ended the third round. The negro middleweight did not find it difficult to hit Sommers at any time. Tommy Burns dropped a few remarks around town before laBt night's show to the effect that Eddie Palmer, New Orleans middleweight, was the black Mike Qibbons of America. Without Plighting Tommy's judgment, the ma jority of those present last night would hate to see Gibbons if he boxes 8x two-minute rounds as did Palmer last night. The negro boy lacked pepper. He Feemed to loaf all the way throughout the bout. Trambltas set him down with a right-hand punch in the second canto, which ended the round. The Portlander forced the milling throughout and won by a good margin. He was given the decision. Palmer appeared to have a stinging punch, but did not seem to want to get started, or else he did not know how. Jack Allen secured a draw with Wal ter Knowlton by forcing his lighter opponent around the ring In the last two rounds. Jack made a hit with the fans by his aggressiveness. LABOR FAVORS EMBARGO COUNCIL, TO ASK PRESIDENT AND OREGON DELEGATION TO ACT. BUI Providing for Public Ownership of Utilities Is Explained nnd Investi gation of Yards Ordered.

FREAK DINNER ARRANGED FOR NEW YEAR'S DAY IN IRVINGTON Twenty-four Couples to Go From One House to Another for Each Course on Schedule Not Known to Participants Ahead of Time. mm kSM, CARTOONIST DIVl.XES PROGRESSIVE DIWER IDEA. TWENTY-FOUR prominent Irvlngton men and their equally prominent wives, in the mad pursuit of some tiling "different," have arranged a most unusual progressive dinner party for New Year's Day. It will start at 3:30 o'clock New Year's afternoon and will end nobody knowe when, exactly, ex cept that It will wind up with a dance. The dinner will be "different" be cause the six hostesses who will serve the six courses will not know until the moment the guests arrive who her guests are to be; neither will the guests know where t'.ey are to go, nor will any of the 48 participants know for sure just how complete a dinner they will get. In short, none of them knows where the next course is to come from - none of them except the "captain" of the progressive dinner committee. The 24 men and their 24 wives will assemble at one of the fashionable Irv lngton homes about 3 o'clock on New" Year's afternoon. That meeting will be the first disclosure as to who will be In the party. Each of the six selected hostesses, however, will have had pre vious instructions to prepare a certain course.

"You've got to toot your own horn all the time or Ise some fellow will come along and 4stuff it full of cotton." So runs the logic and the philosophy in "It Pays to Advertise," which opened an- engagement last night at the Heilig. But that one line is only one line. There're a hundred others all along the same thread of thought. It would really be a sort of miss-good-luck If you fall to see this big-booster show, now that the opportunity is here in Its second visit to us. It gives one a laughing treatment does "It Pays to Advertise." And it goes further in that it breathes a business spirit. Not the small town spirit not the hold-back, timid, narrow spirit orsmall businesses, but the big, audacious, huge-visioned spirit that commands respect. It really la an animated talk on how to advertise why and when, strung all together with the funniest variety of farce comedy with a love story and all ins essentials adroitly constructed that go to make a fine entertainment. The audience listens to the most convincing line of arguments In favor of advertis ing a list of names and trademarks of well-known articles, that sounds like a personally conducted tour through the advertising pages In all the modern magazines. From garters to glue from the Al pha to the Omega in advertised goods the lesson runs, and everyone liBtens delightedly, letting the lesson sink ,. in the while they see and hear the fun. Do you eat duck eggs? asks the advertising genius, whose doctrine flourishes like a green bay tree. "No, answers the man who has to be shown. No, of course, I don't eat duck eggs. I eat hen's eggs." "And dy'e know why?" pursues the aforementioned genius. "I 11 tell you, When a hen lays an egg, she makes a noise about it, doesn't she? But when a duck lays an egg the darn fool keeps quiet about it. The duck doesn t ad vertise." In that you have the nucleus of the idea around which Roi Cooper. Megrue and Walter Hackett have written this play, which is conceded to be one of the funniest of its ktnd. Its story has to do with a billionaire soap manufac turer whose only son is easy-going, Inclined -to shirk responsibilities, ex ceedingly lazy and a general spoiled child. Father enters Into a plot with his pretty stenographer to get son In terested In some sort of work. The girl enters Into the conspiracy and the plan works beautifully. On money ob tained from father the boy embarks In a rival soap concern and gives the old man a fine run for his money. Of course there's a boomerang and a see saw of wits put over with all the dex terity of a game that keeps its audi ence guessing, and a fundamental sense back of it all that supplies the punch A well-balanced cast of all-round merit presents the perky play. Allene Durano Is the cutle stenographer. De al ree Stempel Is an attractive French adventuress. James Jay Mulry is the son, George Schaeffer the father and George Sweet Is likable tui the adver tlsing friend, with half a dozen more folk to help roll the fun along. The engagement closes on Saturday night. TWO WOMEN DISAPPEAR Mother and Daughter Leave Cloth ing at City Jail. Miss Dorothy Brown, 21, and her mother, Mrs. Carrie Brown. 44. tnvs- teriously disappeared September 7, after passing two nights as lodgers In the city jail, where tney left e. bs con a couple) will start out, under "sealed orders," for a destination. The "sealed orders," each of which will apply to a squad of six couples, are to be opened on arrival at the first-course house. This procedure if? to be pursued until the final courseof cafe noir, cigars and cigarettes is reached. There will be four "squads" of 12 traveling all the time, each squad to a different place, until the end of the dinner, which will be around 7 o'clock, after which the 48 will assemble again, get 48 more peo ple and proceed to a dancing pavilion for an evening of tripping the light fantastic and otherwiso driving away of dull care. The novelty promises to be diverting, because the general chairman of the scheme is keeping secret the names of all other participants, keeping the vari-. ous hostesses in ignorance as to their guests, and sending each cquad out un der absolutely sealed orders. The host ess in each case leaves her home simul taneously with the other squadW, and her cook must look after the details. Each squad will dine on a particular course at a regularly set hour. The turkey course will be ' reached at 6 o'clock, and at 9 o'clock the dancing party will begin. taining a number of toilet articles and some clothing. The women stayed in the jail because they were penniless and unable to obtain work. - Mrs. Brown and her daughter came to the West from Des Moines. Ia., work ing at various points along the wav. They started to walk from Hood River to Portland, but were brought to the city by a motorist, who passed them on the road. Arriving here, they ap pealed to the Women's Protective Bu reau for assistance in finding work. They were given permission to lodge In jail, and the bureau undertook to pay for their meals until they obtained em ployment. Miss Brown got work as waitress In a Greek coffee house in the North End, but was obliged to leave that employ ment because of the law forbidding American girls to work in such places. She returned to her mother In low spirits, and the two went out to dinner. They never returned. The police do not believe the women met with foul play, but regard It as unusual that the women should leave their bundles in the jail.

Pro niqinna nf th constitutional amend ment passed by the people at the last general election and Known as me Rural Credits amendment will not be nm. .friivA until. February 5. or 60 days after the proclamation Issued by the Governor declaring sucn amena mn n law. according to an off-hand opinion given by the Attorney-General's office tndav. The final section of the amendment provides that "the provisions of this amendment shall be self-executing, and shall take effect and be in operation 60 days after their approval and adoption by the people of Oregon. This is taken to mean at the At f nrnev-General's office that the amend ment did not contemplate its taking effect 60 days after the ballots were -nt nnon the measure, twit upon the other hand it Is construed to mean that the regular order should .be roiiowea out as provided for In another constitu tin.i nrnvialnn and that it be deemed a part of the organic law 60 days after It was proclaimed as passed oy u Executive.

Pike, preslden of the Rotary Club, who told the worn I en that their assistance was needed to purify politics. "A person who scratches his ticket ia no longer a 'mugwump' but onored. It Is right. It Is no wonder now that people tell men to steer lear of politics. It now Is so that no matter how clean a. man is and how tainless his reputation is, the moment e enters nolitics he is maligned and his honor smirched. It is up to us all to do away with this condition." O. C. Bortzmeyer explained the pur pose and working of the Bosarians.
