Representatives Of the Olympic, St. Ig-

pal business transacted was the giving
OF a sanction TO Harry Leap, represent
ing the Century Club. to give an anna
teur boxing show on the afternoon of
July 1.
Chairman T. l. Fitzpatrick announced
that he had opposed the giving of
sanction, believing that IL was the de-
sire Of the Mayor. who proposed the
athletic carnival. 10 make that great
open air free event the banner attrac-
tiOn Of the day. Since that time he
learned, however, from Supervisors
SandersOn and Walsh that Leap had
filed his application for a permit for
his boxing show some time before the
athletic carnival was proposed. They
informed him that the Mayor and the
Supervisors did not believe the amateur
boxing exhibition would draw many
people away from the park. Fitzpat-
rick, in consequence, did not oppose the
sanction fOrcibly, saying that as a mat
ter of right the Century had a right TO
a sanction for a strictly amateur show,
despite the fact that the daLe would
conflict with that set for the field day
on which all the members of the asso-
citation had centered all their energies
Leap desired statements made TO the
effect that he would give his exhibition
in spite Of the association. which he
Is also alleged 10 have said was on its
