Toledo, Ohio, May 16.—Official | { sanction for the heavyweight cham- | | pionship battle between Jess \Villardi iand Jack Dempsey scheduled to be . | fought at Bayview Park here, July 4, was given yesterday by the Toledo | boxing commission. A permit was | { given to G. I. Thacher and his brother, representing the Toledo Athletic club. The permit, calling for a 12-round contest to a decision, bears the signa- | tures of Mayor Schreiber, Chief Wall, | { director of public safety and head of { the boxing commission, and the re- { maining five members. This action | removes all speculation as to what the would do in regard to | commission sanctioning the contest. i The first major reservations of seats were made yesterday. Officials of the | Maumee River Yacht club gave Rick- ‘ard a certified check for $3,500, which | | will go for | members. | Ohio, | seats. Sportsmen of Columbus, also placed an order for 400 They plan to make the trip in | ! special trains. | Because he feared tickets might fall into the possession of scalpers, Rick- | ard yesterday refused a check for| | $20.000 worth of seats. He declined purchaser. Formal protest against the heavy- | ' weight battle was filed last night with | Mayor Schreiber by the Toledo Min- isterial union, an organization of 250 | churches. Copies of the protest were | | mailed to (fovernor Cox, at Columbus, | and John K. Mathias, sheriff of Lucas | | county. These officials are asked to | | prevent the contest. l The protest said that the contest | would result in an invasion of “gam- | blers, thieves and thugs” in Toledo; that it would teach youths to e | | red,” and that the record and public | statements of the fighters “justify the | ‘oxpormxion that we are to have a | gladiatorial contest worthy of the | /Roman arena of infamous memory."” | | Dempsey had noi rived late last night, but is expected today to select ‘a site for his training camp. e =i i ! | | Former Tnfield Star of Cubs and Braves Is Elected Head of New | Bascball Teague in Empire State. | Utica, N.
