IuTther eVIdence OF Us IHl5I-
ton to introduce scale Of

- ton to introduce scale OF
weights that will be recognized the
world over, the state Athletic commits
sion has promulgated the following
classes. with accompanying weights
which will be considered official IN all
clubs under its supervision;
Paperweight, los pounds; bantam
weight. rs pounds; featherweight, 125
pounds: lightweight. 135 pounds; well
terweight. 145 pounds; middleWelght,
15S pounds; cOmmlsslonWelgh L. .
pounds; heavyweight above rs pounds
The above figures mean r1ngSlde
weighing. which has always been in
sisted upon by the commission
OF the classes enumerated the only
ones that viii be changed and STeatIy
benefited are the feather and nght-
weight. In the former division 122
pounds was generally demanded by
those who could make that weight
Abe Attell. who held the title tor years,
favored 122 pounds, though he never
craWled out Of a match on account OF
a few extra pounds.
Johnny KiIbane. who wrested the
crown from Attell last February,
would find it difficult proposition to
make 122 pounds ringside- His best
weight is 124. and If the coast authOr1-
ties fall in line with the schedule II
will mean that at least 10 additional
promising featherweiShts viii be in
line to battle for the crown
In the lEnLWeISQL class the extra
two pounds will mean quite a change
in the situation It is in this division
that there may be some loud yelling
Willie Richie, who now holds the title,
claims he can make 1913 pounds with
out any trouble. and intends to insist
upon this weight in all his champion
ship battles. If he carries out his de-
termination it means the shutting out
o. his most dangerous rivals-Packey
Mcfarland. Jack Britton and Freddie
Welsh-an Of whom are in the 155-
pound class.
