THE NEW MAYOR, George L. Baker, ts quite a fistic fan, and with the help of others well versed in the boxing game, has caused a jeity ordinance covering 10-round bouts to be drawn up. The Labor day show is to be a sample of how things will work out under the new lorder. If the affair is a success |it seems reasonably certain that the ordinance will be passed, and |thus the Rose City will have 16 round mixes, fully protected by its city government | The return of Portland to the bic |game will boost boxing consider. able all along the Pacific Coast.

On that occasion there will be assembled at the ringside a goodly number of Seattle's representative citizens; there will be many there who, perhaps, have never before at tended anything of the sort; there will be many there who have here- tofore stamped boxing as brutal, altho they perhaps have never seen two skilled athletes of the squared circle in action, eee SURELY THERE IS no little amount of credit due the boxers of this locality for the splendid way they have come to the front for the cause We have yet to hear of a boxer who has claimed exemption when drafted. On the contrary, reports are coming in each day of boxers who have made repeated attempts to enlist, only to be turned down The case of Romeo Hagen is but one of many. Eddie Pinkman, perhaps the best known boxer in the Northwest, is a sterling example of what the gentlemen of the fistic art are made of. In the city of Seattle there was no more petted and pampered young fellow than Pink man, but when the call came for | volunteers, he was among the first to answer. He broke away from ® continual round of pleasure to shoulder a musket in defense of his nation’s honor. Life in an army camp 1s a different one than Pink man had been used to, but he has not been heard to complain, Earl Baird, national 125-pound amateur champion, is another whom we can point to with pride | Get acquainted with “Persuasive | Peggy.” of his} STAR—FRIDAY, AUG. 24, 1917.

Murray {s scheduled to meet Jobn Strachan of California in the semi-final round today, their match having been postponed by the rain that also made the Williams-Niles match a duel in the mud.
