SPORTING GOSSIP OF INTEREST
 TOFANS
fBy Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-After six years of boxing under legal control the game of gloved fisticuffs has again been abandoned throughout New York state. The last bouts un- der the provisions of the Frawley law were held November 14th and such contests as may be held in the future will probably be staged under the so- called "club membership plan" An idea of the popularity of boxing, even under the restrictions imposed by the law just repealed, may be gained from the fact that the gate receipts during the six years of the ring game amounted to about $5,OOO,OOO and the states share was close to $500 900.
 The official returns for 1917 are not available at this time but the commission reports for the years be  tween 1911 and 1916 show that $4,5O2, 280 was paid in at the gates of the various boxing clubs located through out the state and that the revenue derived under the legislature tax amounted to $262,263. The estimated receipts for the present year are plac ed at close to $5OO,OOO and the ta1 returns sslabout $40,000.
 During the period of boxing under the Frawley law two titles changed hands as the result of knockouts scored in the rings of New York City Al Mccoy wrested the middleweigh

title away from George Chip In April. 1914 by knocking out the champion in one. round. Mccoy in turn lost his title in a sensational bout with Mike O'Dowd in the last big bout under the Frawley law, when he was knocked out by the St Paul boxer in the sixth round of their bout held Nov. IA, 191'. The other championship on and lost was the lightweight title which pass ed from Freddie Welsh to Benny Leonard earlier in the present year when the latter scored clean knock out of the Welshman in their third meeting in this city.
 Other bouts of particular interest were the Willard-Mortan and the Me Farland-Gibbons matches which set a record in recent year gate receipts. Probably the most exciting boxing event under the recently defunct law was the K. o. Brown-Matt Wells bat tie. This was the first big contest held under the Frawley rules and an- parently every follower of boxing for miles about New York was eager to crowd his way into Madison Square Garden for the initial clash The re- suit was a near-Fiot, calls for police reserves and legalized boxing began under discouraging. auspices. For all | round excitement and execution the Bombardier Wells-Al Palzer battle at the Garden was probably the most l sensational one staged during the en tire six years of boxing.
