SQUAWK DISDAINED BY GAME MITTMEN Referee Shouldn’t Need Aid to Determine When Low Blow Is Struck. BY WALTER TRUMBULL, HERE has been a lot of foul- ing in boxing bouts of late and there is a suspicion that there also has been a lot of quitting. A man who is getting a trimming doesn’'t have to be hit very low to cause him to sink to .the floor and make faces. There have been some real fouls, but there have been other instances where fallen warriors have writhed like a snake with the colic from punches that certainly were not over one-fiftieth of an inch below the belt. Every time these fellows get socked in the stomach they try to get away with a claim of foul. It certainly is not pleasant to stop a punch with the stomach, but that is strictly legal ter- ritory, 'If they don't get away with it the boys generally clamber to their feet and continue to retreat in a lively manner. How Real Fighters Do It. I certainly hold no briefs for fouls. | They are outside the rules, and the distance between the top of the head and the waist line offers plenty of space for any fighter to hit an oppo- nent. But there is such & thing as in- viting a foul—moving into a punch, raising on tiptoe. I think that the man who delivers an intentional barred for life, but I also think that the man who claims an unintentional foul which doesn’t hurt him is not very game. You didn't find many of the old timers winning their matches on fouls. Demp- sey, quite unintentionally, hit Tunney low at Phjladelphia, and Dempsey could hit as hard as most. “Keep your punches up, Jack,” said Gene. “0. K, Gene,” said Dempsey, and that was that. ‘Tunney hit Chuck Wiggins low three times in one bout. Wiggins never spoke to the referee. After the third punch he spoke to his opponent, ex- claiming: “Hey, Gene! That was low!” Wiggins a Gamester. He knew the punches were accidental and wouldn't complain, although the referee had warned Tunney and would have disqualified him. A game fellow, Wiggins! Tunney calls him one of the gamest he ever met, With the armor pugilists wear now- adays 1t always is doubtful whether a man ever is serioully hurt by a low blow. A game man doesn't want to win on a foul. Fouls only have become popular since boxing became a business and a racket. There is another thing. No competent referee should have to ask anybody about a foul blow. That is one of the main things a referee is inside the ropes for—so that he may be close enough and in a position to see what goes on He chooses his own position. Charlie White and referees of his caliber didn't have to seek the advice of any one out- side the ropes. They ran a bout without | tournaments in Washington, foul blow should be’| ¥’ assistance and called things as they saw- them.

In that time he might learn the location of the belt line, Would Bar Foul Hitters. Others have an idea that any boxer who is fouled—unless the foul was plainly intentional, in which case the man who fouls should be driven from the game—should have the right to de- mand a 15-minute rest, and that then '.:le contest should proceed to a conclu- sion, Jack Bharkey has offered to box Schmeling again for 1215 per cent of the gate, leaving Max 371¢ per cent; also_to guarantee Bulow's possible ¢laim to 20 per cent of Schmeling's share. This comes close to an offer to box Schmeling again for nothing, while Max would collect his full share of the purse.

HICAGO, June 23.— Young Stribling, no longer regarded among heavyweights as the boy with a schoolboy fighting complexion, placed his left hand back into a plaster cast today and awaited developments in the leather-tossing in- dustry. | Bince the “crippled” left hand pars ¢ alyzed Otto von Porat, the Norwegian paralyzer, in less than a round at the Chicago Stadium Friday night, the | [ showered with offers, but has- shoved them all aside, confidently awaiting one that will give him a shot at Mak Schmeling’s heavyweight crown. His parental manager, “Pa” Strib- ling, has cabled Promoter Jeff Dixon in London a request for a 30-day post- ponement of his son's match with Phil Scott, scheduled for next month; be- cause of the “crippled” hand; and if the English heavyweight reads news- papers and knng/s what the hand did to Von Porat, the postponement is ex- pected to be granted unhesitatingly. Although physicians of the Illinots State Boxing Commission failed to dis- cover any injuries in the hand, it did appear to be sore, and another plaster cast was ordered. It should be “healed” wu;un a week or two, “Pa" Stribling said. Still slightly stunned or stupefied by Stribling’s quick and decisive victory over Von Porat, many ring followers today believed Young Stribling has re- belled against his father's insistence for defensive caution and has decided to adopt a viclous aggressiveness. KLEIN GOT HIS POWER BY STEEL MILL TOILING Chuck Klein sees no mystery in his ability to hit the ball over the National League fences. He says: “While in the steel mills in Indianap- olis I had to lift and carry large beams, I could hardly make it at first, but I grew stronger, and by the time I was t‘\;lmnt there I could carry one around y like & ball bat.
