both teams were far down in the
race, with nothing depending upon
the result perhaps, prevented the
game from becoming famous. Yet 4

Those Opposed to Fighting
Are Behind Proposed
Measure.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 23.-Op-

clean, high-class boxing, are work.
ing earnestly in behalf of the bill
introduced in the house of represent
atives by Representative Sykes of
Tulsa county, which creates a state
athletic commission and legalizes
boxing.
Among the supporters Of the meas
ure is one of the most prominent
members OF the Ministerial Alliance
of Oklahoma city. He believes the
state of Oklahoma needs just such
a law as this.
The bill will not be introduced in
the senate, but several prominent
senators have indicated that they
will support the bill after it passes
the house, and that it will pass the
house Is almost assured, for no OPP
position to the measure has de-
veloped among the solons thus far
The committee on the practice Of
medicine is now going over the bill
and probably will report II out the
first of the week, with the recon-
mendation that IL edo pass" They
will amend it slightly, so as to pro
tect the state from ever having TO
make up any deficiency in the fund
for the support Of the athletic com
mission. The athletic clubs them
selves will pay tax for the support
of the commission and the surplus
will go into the state treasury, so the
bin in reality will prove a revenue
producer instead of an expense.
Successful Elsewhere.
New York, COLORADO and Wiscon-
sin now have laws of this charac-
ter. and similar measures are about
to be adopted by Illinois, Ohio,
Michigan, Arkansas and other states.
New York state has profited to the
extent of $4,000 during the three
years that the law has been on the
statute books there.
The proposed Oklahoma law would
prohibit prizefighting, ringside bet
ting, taking, shoestring promoting
physically unfit from boxing, mis-
mated matches and require BOND
of 1000 from every athletic ciup
licensed by the state.
Enjoys Clean Game.
While | have always been opposed
fo prizefighting," said Representative
Sykes, author of the Dill, am
heartily in favor of good, clean box
/
hibition and there is not a single
argument against the game properly
conducted and controlled The pres
ent Oklahoma law has proven very
unsatisfactory, in that it fails to dis
tinglish between the prizefight,
which IL is intended to prohibit, and
boxing, which should be encouraged
rather than discouraged, Prizefights
have been held in spite of it, and
boxing exhibitions in which there
could have been no harm have been
prohibited by it. The only way to
deal with this condition of affairs Is
10 follow in the footsteps of New
York and Wisconsin, which are rec
ognized as having the most advanced
nti-prizefighting ,pro-boxing laws in
the world. That is why ! have
placed before the oklahoma legisla-
ture a bill establishing an athletic
commission to prohibit prizefighting
