There are few in sport who re without it, for we have found, on about as brave as another, or would under the same conditions, ficiency in sport is not only a rarer quality than courage, but it is also to a large extent the producer of courage.

ATTAGK ON BOXING BLOCKED BY SENATE | Resolution Asking Commission lor | Facts Is Sent to Committe Albany, March 31:—Senators Irving J. Joseph and John L. Dunnigan ' of Manhattan are indignant over what they term dealing facetiously with | a serious question. The latter intro- | duced a resolution in the Senate ves- | terday to demand an explanation from the State Athletic Commission of the conditions under which it has been | | aranting hoxing licenses. After pro- | longed discussion by the two New Yorkers Senator Elon B. Brown, the ! Republican leader, aroused their ire | and the laughter of others by moving that the Dunnigan resolution be re- | ferred to the Civil Service Committee. | The motion was passed by a vote of 28 | to 13, and the latest attack on box- ' | ing was sidetracked. Senator Joseph gave a list of boxing | | clubs he had visited In nine cases out of ten boxing licenses were grant- ed illegally, he alleged. One place in the Bronx conducted bouts without any license all, according to his statement. The complaining Senators insisted that Chairman Wenck and the other Commissioners “were permitting | the game to run riot” and that it would be necessary to stop boxing al- ! together shortly uniess onditions | | changed They threatened to place their evidence befcre the Governor. Because he thought the Dunnigan resolution would have no material re- sult Sen Jones, sponsor of a bill | to abolisy ommission and do with hoxing contests, voted ainst it “I know my bill is ing to pass” he said “I am not opposed to hoxing,” said Senator Joseph, “and will vote against the Jomnes bill unless the commission | is abolished. I believe we will be better off. without boxing than to pe mit its supervision by this commis sion.” B. F.
