ASKS SENATORS
TO LOOK INTO
FIGHT SCANDAL
Marty McCue Wants ST, 600
for an Investigation
of Wenck

Albany. Jan. 22.-An investigation Of
the State Athletic Commission was pro
posed by Assemblyman Martin McCue,
Of New York, in resolution introduced
in the Assembly tonight. Mr.. McCue
called attention TO what he termed dis
satisfaction with some Of the commits
sion's rulings and the bribery charge
now pending before Governor Whitman
against Commissioner Fred A. Wenck.
The resolution provides that the In
vestigation shall be made by com
mittee Of three Senator'S and fye As
semblymen, and shall deal particularly
with licenses for public boxing exhibit
tions. An appropriation of 81 900 ~
called for. The resolution was referred
TO the Ways and Means Committee.
The hearing on the charges against
Commissioner Wenck has been post
poned to next Monday.
The charges of soliciting a bride pre-
ferred against Fred Wenck, chairman
OF the State Athletic Commission, will
not be Withdrawn. Harry Pollok, one
of the compliments, is the authority
for this statement. The hearing of
the charges has been postponed twice.
and the rumor grew that the case
would never be brought to trial. Pol
lok, however, AYERS that the postpone
ments were made at the request OF
Attorney Fuchs, because Pat Powers,
another Of the compliments, was out
of town.
Pollok says that the compliments
never entertained any idea of dropping
the case. He said, moreover, that the
charges could not be withdrawn, even
il there were any desire to do so.

WALLACE IS BEATEN
BY BENNY LEONARD

Philadelphia, Penn. Jan. 22.-Ben-
ny Leonard, of New York, pun
ished Eddie Wallace, of Brooklyn, Sc
verely in a six-round bout here tonight.
From the fourth round on Wallace took
an unmerciful beating, and when the
bell rang at the end Of the final round
he was on the ropes, with his arms
hanging at his sides. He reeled I'M
steadily TO his corner. and it was only
after several minutes of heroic work
by his seconds that the Brooklyn lad
was able to leave the ring. Leonard
weighed l34 pounds. while Wallace
tipped the scales at 1913 pounds.
The tide turned in the fourth round,
and from then on il was only ques-
ton of Wallace's stamina. Leonard bat
tered him about the jaw and heart re-
gion with a storm OF stiff punches, and
had little trouble in evading or coun-
tering returns.

NEW ORLEANS RACING
PRESERVED FOR TINE

Mems Racing Association has won an
other round in its fight against Miss
Jean VI. Gordon's suit TO place It in the
hands of a receiver. Judge Skinner, in
the Civil District Court, to-day sus-

BEEBE WINNER
OF HALF MILE
SKATING RACE
Joe Moore, the Model Office
Boy, Finishes Close
Second
BY FRED HAWTHORNE

Several hundred persons turned out
to see the speed boys on skates at the
St. Nicholas Rink last night, and fully
80 per cent of them were roofing for
Joe Moore, the model Office boy, to
win the half-mile handicap. Joe didnt
win, but he finished close second TO
W. Beebe in the fine time OF 1:2S 10.
The one-mile handicap was won by
George Pickering, of the Riverside
Skating Club. starting from the So
yard mark. Pickering won in a driv-
ing finish from w NJ. Taylor, the =.
Y. A. c. veteran, with Irving Reimer,
Of the Riverside Skating Club. third,
in 1907. These three men had a ding
dong race all the way in the last four
laps.
The half-mile handicap was a wild
scramble, with many upsec in the pre-
liminary heats, but NJ. Mclaughlin,
Bronx Church House, kept his feet
better than the others in the final and
won in 1:45 2-5.
A big field faced the starter in the
half-mie handicap, including Walter
Kuehne. n. Y. A. c.; W. Taylor, River
side; Stanley Gershel, Taylor, Reimer
and Distler. Joe Moore, who only gradu-
ated from the novice ranks three weeks
ago, did not have any fancy skating
suit, appearing in his "cits" garb, but
he stuck in the lead until the last lap,
and was just beaten out by Beebe, who
proved to be dark horse"
Tomorrow night the irish-American
A. c. and the St Nicholas Club hockey
teams will play at the rink in a regular
league game, the Winged Fist club hav-
ing agreed last night to the barring of
Wellington and Bawlfe, its two stars,
