Farrell delayed accepting Simpson's proposition, waiting to hear from Seat tle. No word came from the Puget Sound metropolis up until last Monday, and Farrell thought the bout with King fell through and took up his transpor tation to Oakland. When the military authorities at Fort Lawton learned of Farrelrs Intentions they telegraphed him that he had better think twice be fore disappointing the soldier laddies by not fighting King. Army Men Are -Defied. Farrell said before leaving for Oak land that he tried to get in touch with Lieutenant Bell at Fort Lawton, but was unable to get him. Now that Far rell has defied the military authorities and left for California, it will be inter esting to watch what action the Fort Lawton authorities will take. According to a long-distance message from Seattle last night, it was said that Farrell had phoned and left word for Lieutenant Bell saying he would be on hand Saturday night to right King. When Lieutenant Bell called up Farfell at his Portland residence he was told that Farrell had gone to California. The Fort Lawton authorities had In- curred 3400 expense and now will have to postpone their show until August 17. Efforts will be made to obtain either Bob McAllister or Frank Farmer to fight King. Jimmy Dundee, featherweight boxer, who was placed.. on the griddle several times by the Portland Boxing Commis sion for his failure to keep dates in this city, earned a decision from Stan ley Willis, lightweight, in a four-round bout at San Francisco Tuesday night.

Word has come from France that Jim Duncan, the world's record discus thrower, who had a narrow escape from death while doing outpost duty in France recently. State Food Administrator Ayer Gives ha thrown away his discus. I Duncan is evidently disgusted with Warning to Hunters. Hunters who wish to feed wild ducks as the season opens have little chance to use wheat. State Food Administra tor Ayer called attention yesterday to the new rulings of his department on the subject. This was Mr. Ayer'a warn "The special license regulations or the United States Food Administration, effective July 22, provide that any wheat unfit- for human consumption and unfit for poultry or pigeon feed may be used for other feeding pur poses. Anyone using wheat that could be used for sucn purposes ior ine ieea- ng of ducks would be violating the the prospect of getting into any ath letic competitions "over there," for he writes that after carrying a discus "all over France." he at last gave it up as a bad Job. Before the Bradhurst Stan, parted company with his favorite saucer he Inscribed on its surface "Never thrown with a loss." Then he sailed it out into "No Man's Land" in the general di rection of the German trenches. Duncan said that during those hikes over the dusty French roads the discus felt like a 56-pound weight.

Two more entries were received yes. terday in the persons of Cy Seymour, i local swimmer, and R. Hollenderry, formerly of the Olympic Club of San Francisco.

TiiiiiinmiiimimiiiiimiiiiniiiiimiiiiiifP CHAT 68 Why not climax these Summer days with a drive to Oaks Amuse ment Park ? Fall in with the cara van of cars that trek across the Hawthorne bridge to Milwaukie street and out to the park. De lightful river breezes fan the crest of the bank all the way. No dust, no heat, and at the journey's end are grassy lawns, waving trees and a thousand and one exquisite pleas ures for ear and eye. Songs and melodies and dances, and myriad lights that gleam like swarms of fireflies through the fluttering branches of the trees, combine to beguile away all worry and weari ness and fill the time with things that make life a delight.
