KNELL FOR PRIZE
FIGHTS SOUNDED
1snecial TO The Heraldl

OAKLAND, Dec. 27.-Prize fighting will be
thing Of the past in California If the legisla-
tion proposed by assemblyman-el A. a.
Rogers is enacted and stands the scrutiny or
the courts. Rogers, who represents the forty
sixth district, has drafted an amendment TO
section 424 Of the penal code, whereby no ring
contest Of more than six round may be con-
ducted The proposed law contains other re-
strictons on sparring exhibitions, the purpose
OF which is to bar entirely all prize lights
and permit only bona fde boxing exhibitions.
Rogers is a deputy in the office OF District
Attorney Donahue. and has made careful
study of the prize fight laws Of this and other
states. He began this work at the time Dis
trict Attorney Donahue prevented the Jeffries-
Johnson fight from taking place in Alameda
county, and has drafted his proposed law care
fully so that it may stand the test that will
undoubtedly be given 1t in the courts II it
becomes a law. The legislation he proposes is
in line with a recent recommendation of the
grand jury and has the moral support Of the
district attorney
Rogers law prohibits gloves lighter than
nve ounces and contains clause prohibiting
the working back Of the padding from the
knuckes, as is often done. A violation of the
law by a principal. second or one who carries
a challenge is made a felony.

becomes higher and records which We're
considered wonderful when made are
surpassed, alertness of mind and body
and the general air of strength and
health resulting from the athletic eX-

fact which has converted the super

N CAREY ADDS TO
NEW YEARS MILL
Fight Promoter Arranges Extra
Bout, Anticipating Main
Go to Be Short-Lived

Boxing fans in this section of the
weeds are sure to get action on their
New Years spending money, accord
ing to the plan Promoter McCarey un-
yeiled Yesterday. The local swat mag
nate. fearing Young Rivers and Billy
Capelle will find the way through each
others guard long before their sched-
uled fifteen-round affair is over, mas
arranged for a couple of lesser hShts
to go on and amuse the spectators IN
a four-session affair. This makes three
battles and plenty of milling is as
sured.
The Rivers-C -CapelIe bout has taken
it's place on the program and the fans
would not count it much of surprise
should it develop into the real feature
of Monday afternoons doings. NOT
only are the boys unusually we'll mat
ed but each can find plenty OF re
incentive each is bound to come
through with his best.
Because of his remarkable showing
a few weeks ago at Vernon, Rivers mas
been made a slight favorite by the
fans The clever little Mexican is
hailed as the coming featherWeight
champion, and should he get by Ca
pele a main event is in store for him;
But Billy is to be reckoned with, and
remain a bit in the background.
CAPELLE HARD AT WORK
Capelle is putting in some nice work
at his San Pedro camp, and the har-
Dor fans are stringing with him to
stop Rivers before the fifteen rounds
are over Billy's line of battle has
already been laid out. According TO
his figuring the first ten sessions will
find him plugging away to wear his
opponent down. Then, to his way of
thinking. Capelle will have the little
Mexican where he wants him and be
able to slip over the ten-second potion.
What his opponent plans is causing
Rivers small worry. At Jack Doyle's
Vernon place yesterday he went
through his boxing at a lively clip and
is apparently in good shape. Eddie
Russell was handed the gaff in five
fast rounds and Rivers completed his
program with some rapid gymnasium
work.
BIG BOYS GETTING READY
Jim Flynn and Tony Caponi, the
heavy end of the card, are bear cats
for hard labor. Flynn did unusual
work yesterday. loosening up in his
boxing and making it interesting for
three of the heaVyweights who went
out to put on the gloves with him.
Two of the boys survived the three
rounds each, while the third failed to
come to the scratch after a right
swing from the fireman. Caponi at
Arcadia put in a lively day, doing
eight miles on the road early and us
ing the ring at the Oakwood for over
an hour, boxing six Of the hardest
rounds of his training period with
Morrie Bloom.
Caponi declared after his workout
that the climate suited him TO a dot
and that he was getting in grand
shape. He predicts he VIII make short
work of Flynn when the two finally
enter the ring next Monday for their
twenty-round battle.
