TO MAKE CHAMPS
MEET LEADING
RIVALS
SUGGESTS NOVEL
MEANS or GETTING ACTION
FROM PueILIsTs

New York, Feb. 8.--Additional inn
petus in the movement toward the for
nation Of an international boxing or
gnization for the control Of profession
al boxers has been furnished by the
agitation in England for such a body.
The growing demand throughout the
British Isles for an association Of this
type clearly indicates the present un-
settled status Of boxing since English
sport followers, as rule, are extreme
ly conservative, and seldom sanction
international sport alliances. That an
exception exists, SO far as boxing is
concerned, is evident from the many
expressions of personal and press
opinion as shown by articles printed
upon the subject.
AS an illustration. there mag be
quoted an appeal, printed in the Lon
don Times to American, French and
English sportsmen to organize con-
trolling body for boxing a body that
would control the whole question Of
worlds championships, and which
would particularly decide how long a
champion could hold a title without
meeting man in his own4class.
1T is high time" The Times says,
"that cheap champions, men who
eyade meeting their superiors as long
as possible, were deprived of the op-
portunity of refusing to defend their
titles for indefinite periods. In the
matter of organization to that desir-
able end that final word rests with
America; for as the opposers of the
Olympic games are apt to forget, SUI
premacy in any form Of athletics car
ries with it the right of ultimate con
troll. But if the National Sporting
club and French authorities were to
formulate cooperative proposal to
submit it to the leading American
clubs, no harm whatever woulo be
done, and the consequences might be
invaluable"
That such an organization Is con
templated is generally understood by
those directly interested in boxing
both in this country an abroad. Pro
gress, however, is extremely slow
since there are few, If any associa
tions with either legal or ethical right
to act as sponsors for the movement

of France, A. r. Bettinson of England
and Charles Harvey of this country,
but no definite plan Of campaign has
ytt been selected.
Mr.. Harvey, who is secretary Of the
New York State Athletic commission
and an authority on boxing, said re-
Gently:
1T is far more dirAcult to form
such body than was the case in
track and field athletics, tennis, fenc-
ing and other sports where there pre-
viously existed national governing bo-
dies. With the possible exception Of
France and Australia, there are no ma
tional bodies controlling professional
boxing. In this country, three states,
New York, Wisconsin and Montana,
legally recognize boxing and govern
the sport by commissions. In France
there is the French Federation lie
Boxe, while in Australia there was re-
Gently organized the Australian .box-
ing association. Through the French
authorities we have learned that both
Belgium and Switzerland have asso-
Citations working in unison with the
French federation, but cannot say
to what extent they govern the sport
in their countries" W
Mr.. Harvey expressed the conviction
that it is NECESSARY to form national
bodies before an international union
can be successfully launched. He
points out a number of instances of
absence Of cooperation, and the vary
ing customs in different countries and
different states. An instance of the
result Of lack Of cooperation cited is
the rtcent action Of the Frenc h fed
GRAFTON in depriving Jack Johnson of
his championship, which Mr.. Harvey
says, was not supported by either the
clubs or boxinv writer's Of others ma
tions.
Until we have national associa-
tions, there can be, in my opinion, no
successful international organization, 2
he continued.
