BOXING commission
FOR State
Pennsylvania Legislature
Will be Asked to Decide
the Question
SPORTS THINK 1T
WOULD BOOST GAME

Legalized boxing exhibitions, gov
erned by commission appointed by
the state. may result from the pre-
sent session of the Pennsylvania lo-
gislature if the plans of number
of sportsmen in various cities Of the
state arc carried out A bill will be
presented providing for the selection
of a body of men to take in charge
the sport in manner similar to that
in vogue in New York state. Per-
mission to hold bouts of 10 rouncs
or more, under certain restrictions,
will be a feature of the proposed
legislation.
Efforts have been made on num-
erOus previous occasions to get the
Pennsylvania legislature to enact "A
suitable law governing boxing but
they have failed in the main TO pro-
vide anything like a satisfactory re-
gulation. Some years ago, during
the latter part of 1911. New York
state passed law providing for the
appointment of a commission OF
three men by the governor whose
duty II is to supervise all boxing
contests. One of the features Of the
Empire State bill is a demand for
proper matchmaking and the ply
steal fitness of the combatants.
IL is argued that such a law in
Pennsylvania would result in a world
of good to those interested in the
art of self defense. II would elimin-
ate many of the fiascos which almost
weekly are pulled off in one city OF
another to the disgust of the fans
and the public I'm general. II has
been such bouts, where the men are
not evenly matched or one or the
other physically unable to Withstand
the punishment attending the fight,
which have resulted in a demoraliza-
tion Of the boxing game in Pennsyl-
vania and the growth of adverse
/ criticism of the sport Under the
New York state law each boxer must
pass a satisfactory physical examin-
alton before a physician before en-
tering the ring and the physician
must witness every show. II is his
duty to stop a fight when in his
opinion it has demonstrated the in
equality of the boxers.

ALLENTOWN, Pa, Jan. 25.-An
eight-club league in Glass ID is what
Max S. Erdman, president of the Al
lentown Tri-State organization, IA
vOrs for the coming season He also
says the salary limit ought to be
$1,000 a month. with 500 to the play
er. "Under such circumstances
believe small town baseball can ca
list as conditions prevail in Allentown
and in the other cities of the Tri-
State circuit" said President Erdman.
Arrangements should be made early
in the year for the proper continu-
alton of the league, and they ought to
be such that all the clubs can get
along without undue burden on a
few enthusiastic fans"
Mr.. Erdman, who is the County
Solicitor of Lehigh, will put forth his
views at the annual Tri-State meet
ing. which will be held the afternoon
of the day of the Sporting Writer'S
dinner in Philadelphia on February
16. Other delegates from Allentown
will be George II. Hardner and DIR.
A. II. Ballet, former president of the
Allentown club, as well as b. w.
German, Register of Wills, who is
being groomed for the presidency
this year. Mr.. Erdman says he wants
to see well-established Tri-State
League for 1915. and good club in
Allentown, but does not want to take
an active part in the management,
although he will do all in his power
to launch the season successfully.
Stutz, the nobby little shortstop,
who headed the league in his position
last season, came out of his winter
quarters in Philadelphia long enough
this week to visit Allentown and an
nounce that he will be a candidate
for manager Of the Allentown team.
To date it has been understood that
Johnny Castle would be re-engaged
as manager. The decision will lie

FAVORS boxing
FOR THE women.
Will Eliminate HySteria
and Nerves Expert
Tells Them
SKEPTICS ARE
CONVINCED

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Girls, are
you afflicted frequently with a case
Of nerves. DO you get Mysteries
occasionally? Have you temper
that is filed easily? Have you a
catty disposition?
Well, If you have, and you want
to rid yourself of those ailments or
faults, take a course in boxing, and
prestol you'll be cured. Dewitt Van
Court says So and everybody who
knows Dewitt guesses that he ought
to know.
Dewitt is athletic instructor, or
something like that for the Los An
geles A. C.. For years and years and
years he has been giving boxing les
sons. Now he says, to wit:
i've taught boxing to hundreds OF
women during my career and never
once has course in boxing failed to
cure women who we're affected with
nerves. Mysteries, bad temper or a
bad disposition"
How do you account for it?'
asked a skeptic.
well, women are filled with ner-
vOus energy same as men. Men get
an outlet for it through one form OF
athletics or another Women don't
indulge in athletics as a rule. There
fore, the nervous energy is retained
in their systems to break out even
tually in a case of nerves or hys-
terra.
Boxing affords women the exer-
else that they need. 1t uses up thai
surplus energy. 1t acts as an eS-
haust and leaves them just natural
Furthermore, boxing helps to develop
wOman's figure. 1t removes sur
plus flesh and keeps a woman in fine
condition. Women of middle age
who take up boxing look 10 years
younger as the result of it."
Dewitt forgot to tell you girls
about another benefit from taking a
course in boxing. Such a course
girls, enables you to master the ar
of self-defense and that mastery
might come in handy some day if yor
happen TO marry a man who is in
clined to become rambunctiOus evel
so often.

KAVANAUGH BALKS ON
HUGHEY JENNINGS TEAM

The impending crisis in the great
est baseball war in history is being
watched by thousands of people
throughout the United States, but
there is no one in the player ranks
to whom the final decision will mean
more than to Marty Kavanagh. the
former York Tri-State League play
er. Kavanagh has come out fiat
footed with a statement that under
no conditions will he play for Hughey
Jennings again in Detroit
Differences between Kavanagh and
his manager led Kavanagh TO reach
the decision. At present he is signed
10 a Detroit contract, which is bind
ing. but if organized baseball is de-
clared to be a trust and shorn of its
bulwark-the National Commission
Kavanaghs contract will then be il
legal and he may sign with whom
he pleases.
Matty has been hoping that he
would be traded or sold. but nothing
has been done in that direction He
states that he has an offer from =
big manufacturing concern in Phila-
delphia TO play Independent ball next
year, and he is considering it.

TRI-STATE GRADUATE Set
WHITING Record IN 1914

A youngster who only qualified to
vote on August 10. 1914. set the Whit
fng record for last season in the
American League. He was James
A. Shaw, of the Washington Senators,
and the day he hung up the tanning
mark, which is no new one in Byron
Bancroft JohnsOn's capably run or
ganization. was September 4. Then,
facing Peerless Leader Chances
Yankees, Shaw, who is a native of
the Smoky City, struck out IA of his
adversaries in a nine-inning conflict
which the Grifithites captured on the
basis Of to 0. Shaw himself es-
corting the cOmbat's bachelor tally
over the plate in the ninth frame.
In this game the greatest number
OF strikeouts in a championship con-
test of 1914 developed Ray Fisher,
who was the Farrellites' finger,
turning in and retiring nine men on
strikes
Joe Wood also struck out IA men
in a game last season, but on the
day on which he turned the trick,
which was August 81, against the
Browns, OF st. Louis, he had IL in
nings in which to perform 1t. Three
of Woods strikeout victims were
claimed after overtime had been
reached, and by an oddity they were
the prey of the Bostonian in an in
ming in which the Missourians accu-
mulated two runs. This game re-
suited in a tie, 3 to 8.
Wood distributed his IA strikeouts
through eight innings. while Shaw
scattered his whiffs through seven
periods The Senator twice famed
the side. setting no new record there
by for the American League, as in

After the shooting of the Alden
p Richardson 1915 handicap trophy
event, the gunners lined up to contest
for the Grab Bag" prizes which
were offered, This was the first grab
bag event ever staged at the local
club, and despite the small attendance
caused by the downpour Of rain, 1t
was scream" from start to finish.
After shooting in event one, the
gunners were suspectingly led up to
a covered basket which contained a
supply Of shells. and told to select
25 shells. which they did. When each
squad was thus properly ammunition
ed with the proper material, they were
led forth to the traps to do battle
with the slippery and elusive clay tar
gets, sometimes known and designat-
ed as discs In the package handed
each gunner were two or more shells
loaded with black powder, and some
Of them were shells guaranteed TO
go off slow" In other words, as
John Minnick expressed il, you could
shoot at the targets, and if you didn't
hit them you could run out and catch
them before they hit the ground. This
is a literal explanation of the affair,
and somewhat far-fetched, but never
theless close to the actual state OF
affairs.
The shooters entered into the spirit
of the affair. and all present had
a jolly good time The array o.
prizes was most attractive. and in
