FAND SECOND JRENSBURY RULES oledo Gode;l;{ E Be Used in Willard-Dempsey Battle Toledo, Ohio, June 27.—The fact that the bout of July 4 is to be staged %ndor the auspices of the Toledo OXiBg commission has led to the fimpression that the boxing rules of that organization will apply to the title contest between Willard and F Dempsey. With -the exception of a ffew general rules. however, contests in Toledo are governed by the Mar. fquis of Queensbury cole, so that the coming encounter will be decid- ed under the same regulations that have been in effect since Jim Cor- bett won the first title in America under the Queensbury rules from John L. Sullivan While the majority of the rules of the Toledo commission are admir- able, clause 53 is a vicious one and | its enforcement would ruin any bout, Jimportant or otherwise. Rule 53 contains this remarkable language “Exhibitors may box a reasonable length of time in clinches, as long as one arm is free, but must break at the order of the referee.” This rule contains open permis- sion to boxers to fight foully. If it were in force on July 4 Willard could grasp Dempsey about the neck with éne hand and batter him with the other till the referee ordered a break. Rule Is Not Clear. Just what is meant by a ‘reason- able length of time” is not explained, but if either of the men could. ob- tain a neck hold and thén hammer away with the other free fist for half @ minute the victim would without doubt feel shaky when he was re- leased. Rule 2 of the Queensbury code de- clares that No wrestling or holding is allowed,” and the Toledo Boxing commission flies in the face of the Marquis by permitting hugging for a “reasonable length of time.” When this matter yesterday was ‘brought to the attention of Tex Rickard he said he would take up the matter with the boxe and sug- gest that they come to an agreement to box under Marquis of Queensbury rules, without any clinching provi- sions. The rules of the Toledo comm sion prohibit decisions, but as many of the provisions can be altered or amended by a majority vote of the members, no difficulty was found in granting permission to the referee and judges of the championship battle to decide on points if the contest lasts twelve rounds. n interesting clause of the com- mnission rules provides that bouts E8hall be limited to twelve rounds, ex- @ept that the commission may, at its eretion, give permission for fifteen ind bout, under certain conditions. Mherefore, the commission could ve made the Willard-Dempsey bout fifteen round one, but the members decided that there would be enough opposition to the contest without changing the limit of rounds. Who Are the Judges? The first expression of opinion gives | the names of the judges as Bill Brown, representing the Jack Welch, from the Pacific coast It would seem, however, that this assignment is incorrect. Revised re- ports indicate otherw a decision on points will not be the only duty of the judges, for in the event of a foul or other flagrant violation of the rules calling for dis- qualification the judges would have a voice in fixing the penalty. The appointment of an alternate referee is not a new feature, and is fesigned to assure the continuation of the contest in the event of the regular official meeting with an ac- cident or being taken suddenly ill. Willard. Frank Moran, who has had one lussle with Willard, and Charley White, former contender for the slightweight title, inspected the boxers In their training work yesterday. Mo- ran, after studying Dempsey, said: “He is in very good condition and shows speed and power. Yet I do not think he can beat Willard. The champion is so big, so tall and strong, that no one really has an idea as to he difficulty of hitting till the effort made. T thought T had him two three times in the bout in the Garden, but when T unhooked ‘Mary Ann’ all he did was to raise his head up like the extension ladder of a fire company and I fell short of hitting him by six or eight inches. “His hones are so large and his flesh so hard that even when you do Moran Favor tand it is like punching stone lion on the front lawn. T know T never was in better condition in my life than when T faced the big fellow in Madison Square Garden and I tried sverything I had in the shop, but it was no go. “Then when he gave you a push to keep you away it left a black and blue mark on you.

Red Sox amrAthletics’ Players Figure in Big Deal —Phila- delphia fans have said a lot of unkind things about Connie Mack, manager great team in the fall of 1914. But one thing they can’t take from Con- nie is that he has given them more thrills than any rear guard manager ,baseball ever has known. Bad as the Athletics have been able to retain a few stars, and during his five vear stay in the league basement one sensation- al deal has followed another. Mack once raised a storm in Phil- adelphia when he sold Jack Barry to Boston, and another squall followed several years later when Amos Strunk, . a Philadelphia boy, was sold to Bos- | ton along with McInnis, Schang and Bush. Perhaps Connie will be able to get some of his old partisans back as a { result of the deal he pulled yesterday, | when he traded Outfielder Bobbie Roth and Second Baseman Maurice Shannon to the Boston Red Sox for the return of Jack Barry and Amos Strunk to the Athletics. It was by far the biggest deal made since the open- ing of the championship season. While Mack sand Harry Frazee, president of the Red Sox, both said yesterday that it was a straight trade, it is believed that Mack also received a cash consideration. It was known in baseball eircles last week that Fra- | zee had offered Mack $15,000 for Roth.
