If a boxer is deliber ately running away from a fight |the referee haa the power to dis |quality him, but {f he Is showing lekill and generalship in warding off the attack of a dangerous opponent or playing around for an opening. the referee has no right to bellow to him, “Bay, kid, if you don't fight pretty seon I'll throw you out of the ring.” Nor has the referees the right, when one man ts holding with both hands and the other is fighting with one free arm to grab each by an arm and tear them apart as tho he were splitting a couple of sheets of sticky flypaper.

GRANEY SHONE If the boxers cam be convinced that the referee means business when he talks of disqualification there will be little holding. That is where Graney shone as a referee. He never went between the boxers. In fact, he rarely took hie hands from behind his back. If they were locked he would say quietly and suavely, men, boys.” and they broke, but if one failed to heed the warning he would say just as pleasantly to the offender, at the same time tapping him lightly on the shoulder, “I wor't tell you again to break,” and the boy to whom he spoke knew that the next offense meant dix qualification. Another great fant of the pres entday referee is hie proneness to play to the gallery.
