SMOKER CARD
IS 13 ROUNDS
TAYLOR WINS FROM CHICAGO
LAD WHO FORFEITS AFTKR
SIXTH GItKEK GEORGE AND
KNORR GET DECISION'S.
Fast, cloan fighting characterized
the boxing smoker held last night at
the gymnasium oS the evening fea
ture of tho Labor Day celebration
and, as a result of that same speed
and hard hitting, each Central Ore
gon man on the card walked oft with
the decision.
Kid Taylor, weighing in "at 120
pounds, fought tho best battle of his
career when he was pitied against
Frankie Howard of Chicago, a 124
poundor, in the main event. From
the outset it was Taylor's tight, and
while his entire style of combat was
eusler and more effective, the most
marked Improvement noticed was in
the use of his left.
Outboxod and outpunched, the Chi
cago lad could have stayed the' 10
rounds without serious troublo, but
In the sixth he left his chair with
the evident determination to end the
fight then nnd thore. For perhaps
halt a minute he rushed the local
boxer, and then was forced to take
the dofeiiBlve. Taylor hit him at
will and after the sounding of the
gong Howard was so badly used up,
In addition to suffering from a
hemorrhage from a smushod cauli
flower oar, thut he gave up the fight.
Oroke George, weighing In at
125 H pounds, and Nipper Davis of
Portland, fighting at 129 pounds,
went their full six rounds In the
m nl n preliminary. George got the
decision for, though outboxed, he had
a good edge on his opponent in the
matter of general results.
Duffy Knorr of Terrebonne and
Bobby Lewis of Portland fought at
125 'i and 129 pounds, respectively,
nnd Kuorr won Just before the end
of the first round when his oppon
ent was unwilling to go on with the
mill. Duffy bored In from the start,
and with such good results that Lew
is presontly informod Referee Hous
ton that ho wished quit. A few sec
onds after the doclslon had beon
awarded Lewis changed his mind, too
late.

Forest Supervisor Plumb Finds Six
Near East Lake Scenic Beauty
ot Woods Menaced.
Despite warnings of fire danger,
six campers at East lake left as
many cnmpflres burning yesterduy
when they drove away. Forest Su
pervisor Plumb reported this morn
ing on his return to Bend. Most of
the enmpers were from this city, Mr.
Plumb said.
"The timber surrounding East
lake Is of no commercial valuo," Mr.
Plumb declared, "but it Is of great
scenic value, and every effort should
be made by the people of Bend to
Insure its preservation. The wind
had already spread the fires when I
reached the lake, and a general blaze
could easily have followed." '
ATTENDANCE AT
TERM OPENING
BIGGEST EVER
SEATING FACILITIES
, INADEQUATE
NEED NEW BUILDING
Present Enrollment Only Two-thlrdJI
of What May Be Expected By E4
of Week, According to Past Rec
ordsHousing Problem Feared.
Registration at the Bend school
this morning for the opening day of
the fall term offered complete proof
of the prediction of a record enroll
ment made by City Superintendent S.
W. Moore. With the exception of tha
Central school buildings, seating fa
cilities just did take care of the
crowd of pupils, while at the bunga
low buildings on the Central grounds
the attendance overflowed, easily
enough to fill an additional room.
Exact figures on totals will not be
available until tomorrow, when an
enrollment enumeration will be
made.
According to attendance figures
of past years, the enrollment on the
opening day of the fall term averages
about two thirds of that at the end
of the first week, and unless it is
shown that the attendance today
marks an unusual development of
punctuality on the part of pupils, a
real housing problem may confront
the district, Mr. Moore fears.
"I know there are many high
school students who have not yet ap
peared, who will be in later in taa
month," he said.
Many New Teachers. .
One thing that is hampering the
school administration in placing the
large number of pupils is the tact
that some 70 desks, which are need
ed at once, have failed (o arrive. A.
half dozen desks for teachers have
also failed to come in.
A feature of the opening of the
fall term is the big proportion of new
instructors who are appearing in tke
city schools. Eleven out of 18 tm
the high school are teaching in Bead
for the first time, with seven out of
nine in the Kenwood school, three
out of six in the Central school, two
out of 10 in the Reid school and both
camp instructors.
Today was given over to the regis
tration and purchase of books and
tomorrow school work will begin im
earnest.
