PROBABLY A COUPLA REVENUE AGENTS om THE WwWAY AUREADY ! LOOKS BAD FOR WILSON Rule: 22 of Cleveland Boxing Com- mission Provides That Referees Are Under Its Control. New York, July 30.—Although the action of Martin Killilea, manager of ‘Wilson, in laying hands on his boxer during the progress of a round, auto- matically disqualified Wilson the case against him was made stronger when the Cleveland boxing commission overruled the decision of a foul by Referee Gardner and declared Dow- ney the winner by knockout. This ruling restricted the Wilson- ites to one line of argument, and that was to question the authority of the commission . to overturn the verdict of a referee. In order to disabuse their minds on that question that por- tion of the rules of the Cleveland boxing commission defining their powers is quoted. Rule 22 of the Cleveland boxing commission’s code covering boxing bouts reads as follows: “In all boxing exhibitions participants, referees, timekeepers, secorids, examining phy- sicians shall at all times be under the control and direction of the commis- sion.” Under that clause the referee is-at all times under the control” of the commission, and. the third man .in the ring not only. must do as he is told but his decision may be changed if the commission de- cides the verdict was not correct. Boxing commissions all over Amer- ica have ordered referees to stop one- sided bouts or contests in which the boxers were apparently not fighting on their merits, and in many cases decisions have been overruled. Therefore there is not a shadow of doubt as to the authority’ of the Cleveland boxing commission to change the decision of Gardner. ENGLISHMEN ARE PLEASED Captain Rudd Praises Attitude Shown in Games on Thursday the Oxford-Cambridge track team that tied Cornell-Princeton in the in- ternational meet at Travers Island on Thursday will spend several weeks in this country before returning home.

Captain Bevil Rudd of the British team and four or five others are in the homes of Princeton men; some have gone with Cornell athletes and still others to Boston. Rudd today spoke in high pralse of the Cornell-Princeton men who opposed them at Travers Island. “They were fine” he exclaimed, “and we are glad that the meet came out a tiz. The attitude of the spectators at the meet was fine too and we want everybody to know we were pleased.” OLD CHAMPS MEET Boston, July 30.—Two former na- tional singles champions, William F.
