O-S B' & RING BOXERS, COMES IN FOR DISCUSSION By HENRY L. bya ond (United Press Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Dec. ycoesa Press.}—One of the rules of the New York Boxing commission, prompted, no doubt, by a high pur- ose, provides that a boxer under the age of twenty-one cannot en- gage in bouts of more than six rounds. Ostensibly, this rule was enacte? to safeguard undeveloped youngrters. from the permanent effects of seri- ous injuries that might be sustained in the ring and applied to youths who have not reached thelr full de- ~elopmeut There are very few boxers who are not physically fit to stand the gaff at the age of eighteen to twenty, however, and the rule results in mis. statements of age to get around the rule. Jack McAuliffe, the veteran light- weight and the only unbeaten re- tired champion, takes issue with the commission on the theory that a boy is in danger when he is per- mitted to go fifteen rounds before he has reached his Iégal majority. “All of the oldtimers fought thetr best fights when they were between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one. I was going throt Qnish fights with, bar Inuckles and skin gloves when I was eighteen, and I believe that I am a good example that tt didn’t hurt me. Jack Dempsey fought his best fights when he was under twenty-one, and John UW. Sullivan was in his best form in his youthful days,” McAuliffe said. With this rule in effect, Young Stribling, the 18-year-old Georgian Ught heavyweight, 1s not permitter to box more than six rounds in New York, although he has gone ten, twelve and fifteen rounds in ocher Places. Stribling, to the eye of a layman certainly looks s:-ong enough to xo twenty or thirty rounds, Being reasonable under its new administration, the cothmission agreed to suspend the rules in Strib- ling’s case, if he would engage in several six rounders and submit tu an examination by commission doctors after the bouts, William Muldoon, chairman of the commission, knows as much about physical. culture as any expert in the business but, like a great many experts, he takes his business too serlously, and. he applies general rules to every individual case, ee Tn the attitude of the commission that an eighteen-year-old boxer should take his time and not be in too much of a hurry to get out and hustle, some inconsistencies are apparent. To Stribling, to young Dave Shade, a year or so ago, and othe! the commission said: “You e plenty of time to make yourself You have three or four years in which to take it easy, and at the end of that time.you will be stronger, better equipped technically and more able to mix with better boxers where the big money can be secured.’* To Gene Tuney, Joe Lynch, Mickey Walker and Mike McTigue, the same commission said not two weeks later: “You champions had better get out and defend your titles. You can't tell when boxing is going to get a sock from congress or the state legislature. When you refuse to defend your titles you are passing up golden opportunities of tedey thet msy be gone tomorrow.” This question also brings up the point: “Is boxing more dangerous for an eighteen-year-old athlete than any other line of sport?” Granting that an eighteen-year-old boy has a good manager to pick the way for him and bring him along slowly, it is possible that boxing {s no more dangerous than baseball. ‘The wear and tear of a 154-game schedule through the heat of the summer might be more strength- sapping than, for instance, two sessions of one hour each a week at boxing. This is an outside figure, as there are no boxers who engage in two fifteen-round bouts a week. For kidney and liver troubles, constipation, intestinal indigestion and kindred ills. Mra. C.

Football, of course, was regarded as a brutal Sport until very recently. Boxing calls for no more endur- ance than rowing, hockey, basket- ball and some of the other collegiate sporta in which practically all of the competitors are between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one. From an actual physical stand- Point, it is possible that many boxers would not be to stand the gaff of a hard, five-set tennis match played under a boiling August or September sun.

LEAGUE FIELD WORK BETTER Marked Improvement Shown In Official Averages For Season General improvement fn fielding was noticeable in the American League during the season of 1923 according to averages just released. This especially held good at third base, a position where the league as @ whole showed weakness during the preceding season. New ma- terial accounted for this. In Chicago the sensational William Kamm plug- ged up a big hole. Joe Dugan with the Yankees finally “arrived” play- ing one of the most spectacular career. Lutzke made! land and Hale of the Athletics, although new at the game, wound up the season in brilliant fashion, Regardless of other departments of the game, the defensive quality of the Yankees’ play had much to do with winning a pennant and world's championship. The league champions lead in three of the in field positions and are well up among the leaders in the outfield. Aaron Ward's performance at sec- ond base Was one of the sensations of the year, Dugan's work at third was better in most departments than that of his completors and Scott playing ia 152 games finished with &@ percentage of .961 for leadership among the regulars, Pipp also figur- ed pretty high among the first sack- era, it might be deduced from the statistics that the so-called “lively” ball figured tn fielding although its effect is not noticeable in hitting. Stu- dents of the game see in its speed the answer to double play records of the year. In this department Wash- ington, who led the year before in double killings, set a new record of 182. Stanley Harris at second base figured in 120 of these plays while Judge, although he only participated in 112 games, handled the ball 113 times, Peckinpauygh took part in 105, playing im every game on the schedule, One of the features of the game was the unassisted triple play by George Burns of Boston against Cleveland.

While record breaking performances may not gild the figures the improvement noted is marked. The totals made, n many cases explain the value of the player, although this does not hold good in all cases. Among the first basemen Sheely of Chicago holda the record for put- outs with 1,563. The 493 assists of Ward of the Yankees gives an in- dication of his great playing. The 358 assists of Lutzke and 352 of Kamm, both at third base, stand out as the most brilliant of the season, and are far above any mark set last year when Dykes of Philadelphia led with 295. The 422 putouts of Mostil of Chicago and Jacobson's 409 are two other stellar perform- ances when it is taken into con- sideration that no outfielder last year reached the 400 figure. Harold Ruel of Washington Ied the catchers in putouts with 528, considerably below the figure of Schalk of Chicago mst year. Schalk, this year, fell below his mark of last season mainly because of the | ;|Has to Fight His Way he Casper Dally Cridune New Cian i Boston—Above js pictured young| Kamel Hassan, born the hereditary governor of the Province of Vo- dorina in Macedonia, who has an. nounced hig intention of becoming an American citizen.
