EIGHT BOXERS ARE NAMED
Ten Wrestlers Also Will Represent
West at National Elimina
tion of Athletes.
Eight boxers and ten wrestlers of
the Pacific coast were chosen to com
pete in the final Olympic tryouts in
the east as a result of the far-western
trials staged at the Armory last nig tit
under the auspices of the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic club. T. Morris

the American Olympic games commit
tee, who made the choice for the west
ern representation, based his selec
tions for 14 of the men on their show
ing last night while the other four
were picked for their past records.
Last night's card was composed for
the most part of wrestling matches,
only two boxing bouts being held as
several of the mtttmen were over
weight and refused to enter in the
next highest weight class.
Underwood Lows on Foul.
The first boxing bout, which was
in the 118-pound class between Ralph
Underwood of the Multnomah club
and Gerald Murphy of Smelter Ath
letic club of Tacoma, was of short
duration, lasting only one minute.
Murphy won on a foul after being hit
low by Underwood. The second bout
proved to be a victory for Kenneth
Moffat, another Smelter club entry I
who scored a knockout in the third
round over Don Smith, Multnomah
club lightweight.
The rest of the programme was
made up of preliminary and final
matches in the wrestling. Frank
Bolin was the only Multnomah club
entry to land a first place in the
wrestling, the other winged-M grap
plers being disposed of in the pre
liminary bouts.
Winged M Wrestler Wins.
Bolin and James Llolitsas. an entry
from the Olympic club of San Fran
cisco, were the only two entries in
the 121-pound class and the winged
M man took two straight falls from
the latter, being awarded the first
after ten minutes of wrestling and
the second by default because the
Olympic club wrestler could not con
tinue the match on account of an
injury received in the first setto.
Calvin Fatten, of the Los Angeles
Athletic club, won the title in the
135-pound class. Allen Ferguson, also
of the Los Angeles club, took the
final match in the 154-pound divi
sion, and J. A. "Babe" Brown of the
University of Idaho walked off with
the 178-pound honors.
Patten won his way to the finals by
pinning Robbin Reed of the Multno
mad club to the mat with a wrist lock
after the latter had disposed of Rus
sel Vis of the Olympic club in the
first preliminary bout of the night.
The Los Angeles boy then met Blaine
Gibson, University of Washington
grappler. for the championship of the
135-pound class. Gibson won his pre
liminary bout over Virgil Hamlin of
the Multnomah club after ten min
utes of wrestling.
Patten Takes Two Kalis.
In the final match Fatten took two
straight falls from Gibson, the first
at the end of 6 minutes and 45 sec
onds of wrestling, with a double arm
lock, and the second at the end of
2 minutes and 40 seconds, with a half
Nelson and arm bar.
Ferguson and P. F. Amort, who en
tered unattached, met in the finals of
the 154-pound class after they had
both eliminated their men in the pre
liminaries. Amort disposed of George
Hansen in short order in one of the
preliminaries, pinning the winged-M
grappler to the mat with a side
chancery after 35 seconds of wres
tling. Orin Pearson also fell a vic
tim to Amort in a preliminary bout.
Ferguson only engaged in one pre
liminary bout, disposing of George
Clark of the Multnomah club with a
half Nelson after three minutes of
wrestling.
Ferguson Takes Two Falls.
Two stright falls were won by Fer
guson over Amort in the final match,
the first coming after 5 minutes and
31 seconds of wrestling and the sec
ond at the end of one minute after
Ferguson had secured an English
crossbow hold on Amort.
In the heavyweight division "Babe"
Brown of the University of Idaho won
two straight falls from Otto Bardson
of the University of Washington.
Brown used a double arm lock in se
curing both falls. The time for the
first was 4 minutes 35 seconds and
the second 5 minutes and 29 seconds.
Brown won over Os Day of the
Multnomah club in the preliminary
bout, and Bardson eliminated Fred

produced under the personal super

tells one of the strongest and most

present picture season.
When Marion Hilgrade, daughter of
a great lumber king of the north
west, undertook to guard the inter
ests of a wayward brother, she little
dreamed that Cupid awaited her
in the guise of a ragged lumberman.
Fate won for her the acquaintance
of Jules Bonnivet, a French-Cana-lian,
when she turned her ankle in
the snow. The mutual attraction was
instantaneous and thereafter Marlon
was the fair subject of Jules' atten
tion and affections.
But every drama has its villain
and in this instance Jack Macy, lum
ber camp manager for ' Marion's
father, proved his right to the t'tle.
Macy attempted' to discredit Jules in
Marion's eyes by telling her that he.
Jules, was responsible for her brother's
waywardness.
Into the story came also Annlce,
a young French girl, who had been
mistreated by Macy. Macy placed
the blame on Jules and incited the
lumbermen to an uprising against
him for his alleged crime. Marion,
believing Jules guilty, turned from
him. Then, during the last great
climax in which Jules faced Macy,
man to man, Annlce told the truth,
branding Macy and vindicating Jules.

The great question that comes to

parents, and in Switzerland they grow
names like that. Several times pro

that he change it for professional
reasons, but Tom has always averred
that he's lived with it for several
years and he fails to see any reason
why others can't stand it.

Distributors Make Rise Following
Insistence of Orricials of Ore
gon Dairymen's League.
The price of milk yesterday was
advanced 'one cent a quart, retroac
tive to July 1. A few months ago the
price of milk was reduced 2 cents a
quart under order of the city milk
commission, to remain In effect until
July 1.
It is understood that the milk dis
tributors and milk producers will
meet early next week to consider the
wholesale price of milk and it is
Dossible that another cent will be
added to the price.
Added cost of Droduction and dls
tiibution is given as the cause of the
Increase.
Rumors were circulated about the
city hall yesterday that immediate
investigation would be made of the
new increase, but no statement was
made by city officials on the subject,
Mayor Baker is absent from the city
and authority to call for an Investi
gation is vested with Acting Mayor
Blgelow.
It is known that officials of the
Oregon Dairymen's league addressed
a letter to certain milk distributors
several days ago, insisting on an In
creased price for milk. At the time
this letter was received, several milk
distributors are said to have taken
the position that no increase in milk
prices were necessary at this time.
However, milk distributors said
yesterday that the increase -in the
price of milk Vis essential at this
time, that similar increases are in
effect In other cities of the north
west and condensaries are paying
higher prices for milk.
It has been the custom of late years
to increase the milk prices as quickly
as the green feed has been exhausted,
but observers insist that because of
the unusual amount of late rains this
year, the green feed not only exists
now but is likely to exist for a month
or more.
The commission appointed by
Mayor Baker to investigate milk
prices some months ago was dis
charged following the filing of its
report and any investigation made
now will probably require a new com
mission.

Drop to 10 Cents.
ABERDEEN, Wash., July 2. (Spe
cial.) A milk war which may mean
reduction of prices from 15 cents to
less than ten cents a quart was inau
gurated this morning by the Grays
Harbor Dairymen's association against
independent dairymen of Satsop, op
erating through a Hoqulam distrib
uting agency. The Initial cut in
prices, effective this morning, was to
cents a quart. The independents
have been charging 12 cents.
The rate war was declared last
night by the association at a meeting
in Montesano. The association mem
bers allege that the independents
have been selling milk for less than
the production cost, and that a fair
price to the farmer must be guaran
teed before peace is declared. Mem
bers of the association further assert
that the war will be of short dura
tion, and that no hope can be extended
of permanently lower prices, as the
rates in Seattle, Tacoma and Portland
ar. all higher than the rate formerly
charged, with further advances in the
price of production and handling in
sight. The charge made in some
quarters that the association is en
deavoring to control the retail market
in a monopolistic manner is vigorous
ly denied.
MILK PRODUCERS BLOCKED
Effort Made by Pierce County
Dairymen to Raise Price.
TACOMA, Wash., July 2. (Special.)
Efforts of the Pierce County Dairy
men's association to raise the price of
milk to a figure which would have
meant that the consumer would pay
15 cents a quart, were frustrated by
Tacoma distributors today. Threats
of a milk etrike unless the producers
receive $3.65 a hundredweight, which
is 45 cents above last month's price,
were made by O. R. McKinney, presi
dent of the dairymen's association.
This contingency is considered un
likely by the distributors.
The distributors' association offered
to raise the wholesale price 2Vi cents
a gallon to the farmers and absorb
the increase until August 1, but the
producers declared that the retail
price should go up, too. Milk has sold
at 12 Vs cents a quart retail here
during the four summer months and
15 cents a quart for the remaining
eight months of the year for almost
a decade.

timber deals of the year was con
summated this week by Adelsperger
& Conrad- of Marshfleld, when 6100
acres, containing 500,000,000 feet, of
which 75 to 80 per cent is spruce, were
sold to the Lake Timber company, in
which W. F. McGregor. Frank Pat
ton and R. K. Kooth of Astoria are
the heaviest stockholders and incor
porators.
The 6100 acres lie in the vicinity of
Lake Tahkenich. a few m'ies south
of the Sluslaw river.
Jamea Manarv, one of 'he biggest
loggers of the Pae tic coast, also is
Interested in the purchase, which is
about half the tiact known as the
Sparrow Kroll holdings.
No definite statement is made by
the purchasers with regard to the rize
of their proposed operations upon
this tract, but the fact that it Is one
of the finest spruce areas on the coast
indicates it will be logged and cut
Into lumber as fast as possible. There
is probability the new ovpers will op
erate a sawmill, perhaps near Kroll.
The stockholders in the Lake Tim
ber company recently bought a large
area of timber that was Included in
the Gardiner Mill company holdings
and are already operating a big log
ging camo not far from the new
