The answer is, pretty far, if they don't make their remarks personal, and out of the game if they do. “Jockeying by players on the bench has gradually crept in and now seems to be a part of the game with- out any special rules and regula- tions,” explains President William Harridge of the American League. “It is a matter of umpire judg- ment, however, as to just how far jockeying is permitted on the bench.

It is not fair for McCann, who is now recognized as the welterweight champion, to force Nelson into the ring unprepared. “McCann inferred that if I, as promoter, would not stand for the August 10 event, he would obtain another promoter.
