HARVARD BOXERS
10 USE I2 OUNCE
GLOVES IN BATTLES

Boston, Jan. SIT has been an
nounced that tweIve-ounce gloves will
be used by Harvard student boxers in
stead of the five-ounce gloves worn in
the prize ring, so that hard blows will
not disfigure the contestants. There
has been revival of the sport at Har-
ward, and hundreds of students have
taken it up.
Harvard has been asked to enter
some of its boxers in amateur contests
to be held in New York and Boston.
but the college has not as yet sane
toned such course. The students
are taking up, the sport as an exercise,
and they have no desire to become
gIadiators or prize winners.
more men are wanted who weigh
under 1876 pounds and over 10
pounds says The Crimson. Light
weight men should remember that
they will be matched only with part
ners Of their own weight, and there
fore will not be at all handicapped in
tournaments

Charley Weinert, and Jim Savage have
to box at the Pioneer Sporting Club
before they appear in any other ring,
but each will have to contribute $3.50
of his share of the receipts to the
club management. That decision was
recently given out by Fred Wenck,
and was upheld by Frank Dwyer and
John Franey at meeting of the en-
tire Boxing Comnissio on yesterday af-
ternoon.
The club management suggested
next Saturday night as a good date
for the bout, and the boxers man
ayers agreed to have their charges
appear then. Jack Bu1ger, for Vein
ert, and Martin Julian. Savage's man
ager argued hard and long against
the fines. but to no avail. They talk
ed from notes, extemporaneously, le-
gaaIy and at random, but the stone
hearted commissioners only turned a
deaf ear.
The verdict is especially drastic for
Savage, who was recently ordered to
hand 5000 of his share of the pro-
ceeds to the American Sporting club,
which had previous contract with
the Orange heavyweight to box Tom
Mcmahon The Commission ruled
that Savage ran out of that match.

MURPHY CLEANED

y There is an old story of the famous

The ano1ogy4 might not be greatly

It has become almost an accepted
conclusion that Murphy is to be the

1nstinctive trait but 1T long ago be-
came a confirmed habit, and it does
not seem that anything can break it

For the fifth consecutive year, and
with the exception of one season. for
six years, Thomas w. Murphy has
again crowned himself with the dis
tinction of being the largest money
winning driver OF the summer cam
pafgn and by no small margin either,
for he leads by many thousands Of
dollars. and even ec1fpsed all of his
own past trfun1phs- For the second
time in his brief but eventual career
he has set the SUM of his winnings
above the century mark and for the
third time he has established a new
high record of money won by a sim
gle trotter In one season.
No method 'of curbingi his far,
reaching grasp of the richest prizes

at naught and the conclusion is inevi-

of the amount he is permitted to win,
a prop osition that IS contrary to all
the principles of sport and repugnant

He capped the climax of his dizzy
