AIM TO PUT BOXING
ON A HIGHER PLANE

Milwaukee, July with the view
of placing boxing on a higher plane,
the state boxing commission yester-
day adopted a rule to govern the CIV
ing of guarantees by clubs to boxers
The new rule provides that all guar
antees amounting to $3.50 or over must
be posted with the commission; box
ers must post a forfeit Of at least 70
per cent of the guarantee they are to
receive; no sanction will be issued Tor
any matches until the money has been
posted with the commission, and cop
les of all contracts must be filed with
the commission
1t is figured that boxers who have
posted forfeits will not funk out of
match at the last minute, and il will
also prevent clubs calling off matches
at the 18th hour because of small
houses.

Especial to The Argus.)

Hannibal, July Am one OF the
greatest pitching duels ever staged
here Bill Whitaker triumphed over
Billy Neal yesterday afternoon. and
the Mules won in the ninth inning, L
to 0. Whitaker allowed the Island
ers but one hit, this blow going to
Eriewein, the weakest hitter on the
visiting squad.
The Mules garnered eight hits off
Meals delivery, but Billy kept them
as widely scattered as the four winds
and he was never in danger until the
ninth, when his support weakened at
a critical moment and the home guard
succeeded in slipping over the much
needed tally and the only marker OF
the game. Only one Islander saw sec
ond base throughout the nine innings.
Three fast double plays featured the
fielding end. The game was the fast
est witnessed in Hannibal this season,
the Islanders fighting every inch of
the way, but they were unable to solve
Whittaker's slants.
Whenever Hannibal threatened, fast
field and two double plays snuffed
their chances. while the Islanders
were moved down in one, two, three
order. Goose eggs were hung up with
great regularity until the ninth in
ming Beatty got a life when the re-
liable HoIlocher threw his roller over
Duggan's dome, Beatty going to sec
ond. Bossoloni responded with a clean
single and Beatty scored on a close
play at the plate, the ball being re-
turned from the outfield in jig time.
Both pitchers had excellent control,
Neal being especially strong in this
respect, never walking a man, while
Whitaker passed two. In spite of the
fact that Whitaker allowed but one
hit he only succeeded in whiting two
Islander batsmen. The Islanders left
Hannibal last night for Quincy. where
they meet the Speed Boys in double

After going bad for several weeks
Billy Neal came back to form yeSter-
day and pitched a great game. His
services will be badly needed now that
Seaman will be lost to the team for
several days.
The Islanders play at Quincy today
and tomorrow, returning home to open
a three-day engagement with Quincy
here, starting Thursday.
With prospects of favorable weather
the attendance all around the circuit
should set new mark today The re-
ceipts will be pooled and split among
the eight clubs, 10 per cent going to
the league.
Erlewein, the weakest hitter on the
Islander team, spoiled Whittaker's
chances for d no-hit game yesterday.
Whittaker's feat is the closest ap-
proach to a no-blow contest this sea-
son.
The Islander management has it's
strings out for two new pitchers. Both
Ware and Clark have been going badly
and this department needs a bolster
