sion to Protect His Rights.
Boxes Hoosier Tonight

NEW YORK. Feb. 27.--Al Mccoy, the
middleweight champion. who tonight is to
box with Jack Dillon at the Broadway
Sporting Club, is a bit worried over the
announcement that Dillon has been chosen
by Grant Hugh Browne to meet Darcy
next Monday night in the Garden.
Therefore Mccoy, through his father
and manager, \. l. Rudolph, has sent a
letter Of protest to the Boxing Commission
asking that a meeting be called at once to
protect him in his rights the opponent
of Darcy. Rudolph sets forth that both
Mccoy and Darcy entered into a written
contract with Grant Hugh Browne for a
contest in the Garden on March 5, and that
the substitution of Dillon would be an IL
legal step.
The case is a tangled one. the COM
mission ordered Mccoy and Dillon to full
fill an engagement at the Broadway Sport
ing Club before boxing elsewhere.
Grant Hugh Browne last night said it
could be accepted as absolutely certain that
Dillon and Darcy would meet in the Car
den ring next Monday night.
"If Mccoy thinks he has a grievance" "
added Browne, 81 suggest that he sue the
BoXinog Commission"

SCRAPS ABOUT SCRAPPERS
BY LOUIS II. JAfFE

THE Nonparel Club, Kensngton's oldest
L fistic emporium, Is not to stay closed.
After the suspension of boxing bouts for
several weeks following Lou Bailey's resig-
nation as matchmaker at the kensington
avenue and Ontario street arena, Tommy
Reilly has entered the field and will succeed
Diamond Lou. Reilly has been connected
with the boxing game for many years, as a
manager and trainer of boxers. He knows
a good boxer and good bouts, and he is
competent of putting together the sort of
matches the public likes to witness. The
Nonparel. which had been staging bouts
on Friday night, will open under its new
regime March g. and bouts will be held
Tuesday night weekly. Reilly has started
in the right direction by inserting an ad in
the EVENING LEDGER, letting boxers and
managers know where he can be located.
Kensngton is one of the best boxing dis
tricts in Philadelphia That section of the
city has turned out some of the best boxers
here. and the fans there take great interest
in the game. South Philadelphia fans are
backing three clubs, the Olympia, National
and Broadway, and with good matches
staged at the Nonpareil it can be run
successfully as we'll as the Cambria.

Mr.. Schultz Is Ratified
Is it any wonder that Mr.. Schultz, of To-
ledo O.. stared in amazement? He felt
confident that he doing a mans work,
and il any speeches were to be made he
should make them. But those few words
put the Battler up in the air and he came
down only once-and that was for short
count.
Mayo talked himself into a victory last
night, because Schultz listened instead of
fghting The visitor was full of confidence,
but wondered what kind of a man he was
facing who asked him to fight harder and
quit stalling when he had been working as
hard as he was able, He started into box
faster, but when he did Mayo speeded up
just a little more. When the round was half
over Mayo rushed Schultz to the ropes and
let one fly from the floor. A padded glove
swished through the air and connected with
the Battler's chin.

Then all went black and darkness stole
upon him. Schultz sank to the floor, but
arose at the count of five, still wobbly on
his feet He staggered around the ring al
most helpless, with Mayo relentlessly pursu-
ing him, showering lefts and rights on his
head and body. Had Johnny been a little
more careful and not so anxious he would
have scored knockout, but his wild swings
