were given permission late today by
City Prosecutor E. j. Lickley to return
east at once, despite the charges OF
false advertising still pending against
them here in connection with the
Dundee-Ace Hudkins fight fiasco OF
last Thursday night.
The trial OF the champion and his
manager and Dick Donald the pro-
moter of the fight which failed, had
been set for December 2. The fighter
and his manager had been placed
under $1,000 bail each after they had
been arrested on an eastbound train
the day following the Wrigley field af-
fair.
Lickley refused to comment on
whether his consent to Dundee and
WaXman leaving the state meant that
the charges agaiYct them would not
be pressed.
me prosecutors action came after a
final conference with the titleholder,
his manager and their attorney this
afternoon.
Dundee and Waxman have been
suspended indefinitely by the state
athletic commission as result of the

lessor of horticulture at the Colorado
agricultural college at FIT Collins,
who has judged the agricultural ex-
hibit at the Arizona state fair for
the past II years, made the state
n1ent this year that the exhibit had
never been worth while until tl4is
year and that the competition af-
forded by Cochise county was the
fine feature this time.
He said that Pinal and Maricopa
counties will have some stiff com
petition for the prizes in the future
if Cochise county continues to send
exhibits. This is the second year
that they have been sent.
George B. Doubleday, secretary OF
the chamber of commerce, who Or
