On the decision of Justice Seabury,
of the Supreme Court. today on the
application of Bob Fitzsimmons for
an injunction restraining the New
York State Athletic Commission from
preventing Fitzsimmons from taking
part in boxing bouts hinges most
important question in boxing affairs.
The issue, aside from determining the
former champions eligibility, is
whether the New York State Athletic
Commission is cloaked with authority
to determine who shall and who shall
not take part in boxing bouts in New
York State. If Fitzsimmons should
gain a favorable decision, the ques-
ton whether the commission has the
right to pass a rule prohibiting con-
tests between white man and
negro probably will be carried to ths
courts

LENNSKY PROVES
FLYNN'S MASTER
Battler Finishes Strong and
Had Boston slope" in
Bad Way.
pORKY SOUNDLY DRUBBED

Battling Levinsky resumed his WIN
ming habit last night at the National
Sporting Club, New York, when he
faced Porky Flynn, of Boston. in the
main bout of ten rounds. Levinsky
made poor start, appearing to be too
cautious in the early chapters, but
once under Roadway he clearly out
fought the Bostonian and gained the
honors by fair margin. The Battler
was going better in the final round
than in any previous chapter.
Levinskv as is usually the case, was
greatly outweighed by his opponent.
The ringside weights were 100 pounds
for the Bostonian and ITO pounds for
Levinsky. Levinsky was smaller than
Flynn in every way, and in the early
rounds it looked as IL the New Yorker
was In for another setback. Flynn
lowered above Levinsky when they
stood in the centre of the ring, and
he had the advantage of a few inches
In reach. But as the bout wore on 1t
became evident that Levinsky ex-
celled Flynn enough in fighting spirit
to make up for his physical deficien-
cies, and this decided the battle.
Twice during the bout the Boston
heavyweight was in a bad way. In
the fifth round Levinsky shot over
three hard right swings which con-
nected flush on F1ynn's face and Por-
ky's knees sagged. He fell into q
clinch and Rugged Levinsky until
Referee Patsy Haley pried the men
apart Again in the tenth round Be-
whisky rushed Flynn to the ropes and
Jared the Bostonian with some we'll
placed right swings. Flynn bled from
the nose and the mouth from the third
round to the close of the bout.

some folks claim, the question as to
what sort Of father father is, will

II mother becomes more indepen-
dent OF father, more acceptably his
equal, the chances are that the chill
dren will follow her suit and father
will have to become more the COM

boss and the more or less dreaded
