By BARRY FARIs

Omitted Press staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, July Fighters may
just as we'll say goodbye to the tat
guarantees they have received in the
past The day Of big purses is at an
end. Stung often and deep by guar
anteeing fighters huge sums only to
see the box Office receipts totalling
but half the amounts. boxing promo
ters have determined to offer nothing
but percentage" terms in the future.
Boxers will be given a certain per
centage of the gross receipts. No
guarantee that the percentage will
amount to any set sum will be offer
ed. The promoters believe that the
boxer is worth a percentage OF what
he draws at the box Office and no
more.
In order to make the percentage
thing stick, the promoters in the prin-
cipal boxing centers of the country
have decided to form an association.
This move was first fostered by Tom
Andrews, boxing promoter of Mil
waukee. Wis. and It is bearing fruit
Andrews recently made a flying
| trip TO New York and lined up most
of the big promoters here. II is now
planned to hold the initial meeting of
the promoters IN Cleveland sometime
in September The Ohio city is
chosen because of its central location.
Promoters from New Orleans. st.
Louis, Buffalo, Boston, Milwaukee,
Denver and New York have slgnified
their intentions of attending the
meeting.
After organizing. the promoters are
first expected to adopt rules prohibit
ing the guaranteeing of any sum 10
fighters hard and fast rule that
only certain percentage Of the re-
ceipts will be given to the fighters is
planned After that is disposed of
the promoters plan 10 tackle the
question Of a universal scale OF
weights.
At present the weight standard is
decidedly faulty. Fighters posing as
lightweights often enter the ring
around the 140 mark. This the pro.
moters plan to do away with b,
adopting uniform scale which the
boxers Will have to abide by.
Rules by which champion mus
defend his title within a certain
period are also 10 be taken under con
sideratioR but they may not be acte'
upon until a later session.
