Munsey's Aims Shaft
At New Boxing Law

Boxing is now legalized In New York
under a pink-tea statute whose provi-
sions-if they can be enforced-would
render IT no more brutalizing or i'm
moral than ping-pong." says Munsey's s
editorially. An elaborate commission
is to see that the squared circle is truly
square Decisions may be rendered.
but no one can bet on the result. and
'knock-outs' are to be discouraged. The
entertainment. limited to ten rounds
and fought with eight-ounce gloves,
must, nevertheless, be strenuous or
nothing. The gentlemen pug who stalls
is to be as instantly disqualified as the
one who puts too much steam behind
the piston to the Jaw.
Altogether, the prize-fghter who
meets the requirements of the statute
legalizing his profession must have the
qualities Of a diplomat and the sensi-
tive discrimination of pair Of scales.

The simple, centralized, Delco system of

To combine these elements of efficiency
for the first time in unit, exercising the
three separate functions, is of itself an in
teresting achievement; although such q
would be of doubtful value.
But to combine them in the Cadillac
