C, on Bogeys $ excursion.) Everything is relative. If one bad expected to tee real boat between Jack Dempsey and Jim Byrnes, the go here last night would have been set down as a walk-away for the former. But as no one expected that, but ; expected the Manassa Mauler to lay out the beefy behemoth from llarshfield in one or two rounds, everyone is talking about what a scrapper this Byrnes boy is and how close Jack came to having bis million dollar comeback rudely terminated. It's all in the point of view. Brother Byrnes stayed the four rounds, not only stayed, but in the final canto appeared to give about as good as he received. "Appeared to" should be underlined. For as a mat" ter of fact, an inspection of the' two gladiators after the match,; demonstrated that ap pearances are deceiving. We saw Byrnes first, having an ie Cream soda at the Rainbow with a group of Marshfield frionds. .Jlis lip was cut, his face red and puffy, and one ear swollen up like a toy bal loon. If he felt any exultation over his showing he gave no outward evidence of it. He looked sad and thoughtful. Half aa hour later we saw Demp eey a he (tapped out ot the elevator at the Eugene hotel. ' Attired In a Scotch mist, moss green sweater, light trousers, freshly hlned sport shoe, pear grey hat, he resembled that familiar "mold ot fashion." Byes bright, step snappy, skin clear aa a bell, the last few hour might have been spent In a beauty parlor Instead ot the prize ring. Tit went to the "Rainbow" too. and with Oregory, sport writer of the Ore. gonlan, and his male entourage, en joyed an orange crush. Rather in terestlng thatl Two professional maulers, spending their hour after the battle at a "sweet shop" taking toe cream soda and orange Juice while their pal toyed with nut sun daw and banana upremesl Shades of John I. Sullivan and Andy Vol stead I To return to "appearanoet" for a moment. The last time we saw Dempsey was In Phoenix, Arizona, when he refereed a Legion bout, and the last time before that when he fought Flrpo at Madison Square Garden, and took that famous back handed dive Into the press box. Solely on "appearances" Jack Demp sey looked 100 per cent better then he did at Phoenix, and at least 30 per cent better than he did la Stew Tork. In fact to the present flstio authority, he never LOOKSD better than he did here at McArthur Court last night. In short he looked like a million dollars. Lean as a panther, bronzed ae an Indian, straight as an arrow; powerful back, tremendous arm and shoulders, legs lean, not as ounce of surplus flesh a tor a "tummy" Jack haa a wtlttune like a chorus girl. If appearance were final, we would (take our Internat ional sporting reputation upon the statement that Dempsey today can beat any prize fighter in the world, hut as above noted "appeeraaeee" dont count. la fact, la spite of ail the sports experts buzzing about, there I only on man in the world who know Just how good Jack Dempsey la today and that man 1 Jack Dempsey. Even hie medical examiner mljtht be fooled. But Jack Business Tide Turns e A Brighter August (Wsll Street journal) Another encouraging feature of the situation la the United State is the Mtlvlty reported la retail trade. WhUe sale, measured la dollar values, are somewhat smaller than a year ago. the decrease appear to be consider ably leas than would be expected aa a result of the decline in price. This moprelaon Indicate tbt the-, physical volume of business haa Increased and strengthens the view that consum ers' supplies have been depleted to a point where more liberal buying Is necessary, despite the contagious and to a certain extent, unreason able habit of extreme economy that have been adopted alnoe the advent of depression.

After the bout last night a couple of Sugene policemen came Into the hotel lobby packing a couple of larz6 black bags cash from tie show they went up to Herb Owens room, and Jack Dempsey Joined them. All came out with smiles on their faces. According to reports Dempsey received teooo cash money over a thousand dollars a round. This morning he takee a special plane with his en tourage for Eslt Lake City to attend his brother's funeral. Os net pro fits the put week have been close to eiO.000. And one can't walk two step . from this hotel and not be accosted by hang dog looking men whs wul mumble "Say mister, couldn't you give a man a dime for a cup of coffee?" We were touched four times last night In one block. Fifteen or twenty years ago Jack belonged to them JUST A PLAIN BOM. What a tranaformatlonl And last night eight thousand men. women and children paid In 612,000 Just to see the ex-champion perform. Imagine the cups of coffee that could be bought" wlththatl McArthur Court Is a beautiful building and a perfect place for such a show. There were almost as many women a men, good looking women, too. All the men were coatlest, and thank to the popularity of robin egg blue shirts, the haU was a mass ot blue and white. Over in one cor ner a bras band played at intervals. Incldently the preliminary card was alone worth the price of admission. With their hero on the bUl how those aspiring young pugs worked the first two bouts ended by knock outs, while Mickey Dolan and Pelz put on one of their famous slam bang affaire to the delight ot all present. We have always heard Dompsey ha a keen sense of humor. If so he doesn't let It work in the ring. Otherwise uv the two bouts foUow lng his "draw" with Byrnes he would have laughed himself to death. Jack wanted to take Byrne on for an extra round but the Coos Bay pride, very wisely vetoed the suggestion. So Jack Baxter of Eureka, 185, and Henry Olanz, 100. of Portland, came to the slaughter. The former was sent spinning, a little wine rea drop oozed between hi Hps, nd the latter did his own spinning. Henry looked like a stuffed sweet- bread m bright crimson trunks, and knew Just aa much about boxing as an autoelro. He sat down hard sev eral time covering the seat ot his sporty crimson trunks with resin, while Jack weaved about, in and out and tried to- get his face massaged with a few of the autogyro's swings. Both boy were through before the end of one round. Talk about easy money! If Jack thought up this million dollar come back all by himself he doesnt need a manager.

Who said hard times? Jim Owen. Paul luy. and E. van Keveaburg came up on the train from Medford. When we arrived at the hotel, met Moose Mulrhead, Mr. and Mrs. Heine Fluhrer, Miss Fluhrer, end D. O. Coleman they had flown up In the Fluhrer-Mulrhead family plane, time: a little over one hour. They are Just hopping off now for the return.

The Word: 'Colorful' Dowdy-Overworked (New York Herald-Xrlbune) For a word that ha been done to death and yet remain la our raids, mortifying snd about to become a public auitaaoe, w propose the word "colorful." The objection that it can be found neither la the New Standard aor Webster's New International Die. tloaary la the least that can be said against It. Many honest and vigorous word coined In the last decade, still await. lag admission, will "crash" the die. tieaarlea la the long run.. The lea guage is kept alive by such hardy parvenu, most of them urban slang. The dowdy and synthetic -color ful" will go la with these rough-and-ready newcomers: no doubt. Al ready It appears la the New Cen tury Dictionary, which "alms at de. fining all word la ordinary use." We predict, however, that It fat lie with the - topical word nd phrase that come to be used with a disavowing smile. Just as "the Mauve Decade- ana the Gay SO's" gibe at day gone by. we prophesy recklessly that "the Colorful Decade" wUl some day char- acterlze, with tongue in cheek, the 1020 s that wore this bastard adjec tive to a frazzle. ' Another designation which might be given the period 1920-'S0 from a word equally abused In It time 1 the word "eophlatlcated." But to an oncoming generation which will see the 1030's la good perspective, wlU. this boasted sophistication seem to have beea real, or merely a sophomorle assumption of worldly wisdom. No. "colorful" tags the 19S0's more effectively. It la a feeble synonym for "picturesque" or "romantic " for qualltlea eupposediy outgrown which wer stUl dear to a period which was neither innocent nor wise: which made colorful figure of gorillas mistook tinted and watermarked paper for real money; took "art" into the bathroom, mak ing lte most, intimate fixtures sky blue, pale pink or Jade green.

They have discovered thst working for wage ha it disadvantages -chief of which 1 uncertainty. They have learned the high desirability of three square meals a day. They have dis covered that the habit of eating 1 on not lightly to be discontinued. Yet many wag earner have had to discontinue eating during the present paralysis.

Alarmist are inclined to point the finger of fear at thl slow ebb of the city population back to the farm at a time when governments and economic orator are warning farmer to produce nothing, since there 1 no market. But there need be ae trembling on that score. The small farmer now returning to the sou do not in the main, expect to raise large crops for sale. They are seeking sustenance for themselves and their famines, waetner true is a permanent movement remains to be seen. It la surely a wholesome one. Press Comment MOBILIZING FOB THE BOLE. Mr. Kelly dispatches from Wash ington make It clear that force are being mobilized to make a drive oa eoagress tor the dole. The country will have to face the Issue. That Ger many has the dole nd is in extremis economically points no lesson to our own .advocates of it. That England's very government totters under the unbearable lead that has been laid upon it through the dole teaches American agitators nothing. It 1 a prospect both amazing and dismay Ing. There caa be no majority la con gress ot members who. regarding its tragic failure abroad believe In the dele aa sound. But senators and con gressmen will be swayed by clamor. They will be looking to votes at fu ture elections. Advocates of the dole will use it as trading stock tor other legislation. If a majority ter the dole is mustered It will be because of such consideration at these. Advocates of it and agitators for it are organizing. Mr. Kelly says the "progressives" are tor It. But there Is nothing progressive about the dole, la the lands where they have It It hat proved a measure of retrogression and further a measure of ruin to pub lie finance and to the spirit and mor ale of these who seeept It and live by It.
