OPPOSITION TO KIDNEY
BLOW MAY BAR It
Cry Against Practice in
England Receives Sup
port in America.

New York, Jan. 16.-The crusade
against the kidney blow, which started
In England directly after the WEIGH
Driscoll battle. has reached such a
stage it is highly probable English ref
erees in the future will be instructed
to disqualify pugilists who use this
palpably unfair blow
There is much opposition to the kid
ney blow in this country, too although
fight promoters have not yet taken up
the matter. The Queensberry rules
call for fair, standup boxing match"
which would seem to indicate when
the code was drawn up the kidney
punch had not yet come into use. IN
England it is argued that this blow is
contrary to the letter and spirit of the
rules, and therefore clear foul 1t is
contended that when boxers get into
half clinch and one of them with the
free hand pounds his opponent in the
small of the back the milling manifest
~ is unfair and does not produce fair
test of boxing skill.
Kidney punching has been prevalent
in many championship battles in this
country. though it may be said the lit
tie fellows employ such tactics more
than the big men. This method of as
sault has been pronounced injurious by
many physicians and also has been de-
nounced by ring followers who prefer
clean cut work. 1t is said the kidney
punches Battling Nelson received from
the late Joe Cans at Goldfield affected
him internally and so weakened him
that he developed a nervous ailmeni
which had much to do with his defea,
at the hands of Wolgast a year ago.
| 1t would be an easy matter to cut Out
| the kidney blow, it is believed, for the
average boxer does not care for it and
would readily agree to its elimination
| The pivot blow was barred many years
ago and it is seldom that boxers at
tempt to use 1t.

GOTCH FI.OPS
TWO WRESTLERS

Frank Gotch proved that he has not
lost any of his tricks on the mat, even
though he has been away from the
game for some time, by throwing two
opponents at the Empire yesterday. In
the afternoon his famous toe hold and
half nelson downed Jim Asbell in SIS.
while the Mysterious Waffes" sue
cumbed in ten minutes with a double
wrist lock in the evening. The cham
pion made the statement yesterday that
he will positively return to defend his

his former terms in stating that the
trio should hold an elimination series

score of SO to 80. They were beaten
by gentlemen, gentlemen of the Epiph-

minutes of play, when the visitors

of six points.

Everything is in readiness for the
