LICENSE REFUSED
TO MANHATTAN A. c.
Boxing Commission Says That
the McMahOns Would
Run Club.

The State Athletic Commission re-
fused to grant u license TO the Man
haitian Athletic Club at the regular
meeting held yesterday. This case
has dragged along for five weeks. Some
time ago the Allied Promoting Com
pany secured an injunction against the
Manhattan Sporting Club, Of which Gil
Boag was director. This injunction
was dismissed, and the way cleared,
apparently, for the Manhattan A. Z.
securing a license.
Joe Hughes, manager OF the Man
haitian A. c., which is a New York
corporation, filed bond with the COM
mission, along with a lease on the
building and a copy of the order dis
possessing the Manhattan Sporting
Club. The State Athletic Commission,
however. denied the license, on the
ground that, from proof presented, the
Mcmahon brothers would promote any
bouts held in the club, and charges are
on file with the State Athletic Com
mission against them.
Outside of any connection OF the NC
Mahons or their associates with the
applicant, there are a number OF legal
objections which act as bar to the
club, and which will be given in full
TO the club at once.
