PROTEST AGAINST
PRIZE FIGHTING.
STIR MADE IN CONNECTICUT.
Members of Law and Order League
Denounce Contests as Brutal
CIerGymen Mt the McGov-
ern-Corbett Mil.

result of the McGoVern- -Corbett fight
in Hartford yesterday. when Corbett
put McGovern TO sleep with such ter
rife suddenness and force, many OF
the leading newspapers today have
raised protest against prize fighting
,, in Connecticut. These papers call upor
all good citizens OF the State to com
| bine in a movement looking to tn
repeal of the law that permits wha
those papers call clean-cut, bruta
prize fights.
A Disgrace to the state.
These critics of the Corbett- Mccoy
ern fight say that the mill was a dis
grace to Connecticut and laws should
not be allowed to remain on the stat
ute books of the State that permit
prize fighting under the guise of box
ing matches. one paper says:
What is Connecticut going to do
about it? There need be no talk about
arresting and furnishing anybody. The
horse has escaped from the barn and
it is of no consequence whether the
door is bolted or not. What Connect
cut should do is that 1t should either
repeal the law and let Connecticut be
known everywhere as the open ground
for prize fighters. or it should forbid
prize fight contests. There is no chance
for a compromise. In the meantime
public officials should forbid prize
lighting on the ground Of public
policy.
Attended by Clergy
