HOW WILL BOSTON
FATALITY EFFECT BOXING

It is usually an aftermath of any
death by accident in any sport
that it is immeditely brought to
public attention as undesirable,
principally because of its dangerous
features. Such was the result of the
recent bout in Boston, when Frank D.
Leo, known in the ring as Young
Terry McGovern," died following a
knockout blow at the hands of frankie
Britt of New Bedford. When evil
dence is produced that in the last so
years fewer deaths have come from
ring bouts than in any other sport
Boston hasn't had q case of this kind
since 1901, and that the fatality out
in Calgary, in which Arthur Pelkey
defeated Luther McCarty. was nearly
five Years ago, it must be admitted
that deaths in boxing are few and far
between. Football annually runs up
a death list of about an average Of
10, and baseball deaths have been
more or less frequent
Of course, there will be a de-
termined effort on the part Of those
opposed to boxing in any form TO
take this Boston fatality as an excuse
for obtaining theic, desires. They will
probably succeed in giving the sport
a temporary setback. On the other
hand, it doesn't necessarily mean the
sport is dangerous, every time a death
occurs. The faiIacy Of this argument
is easily refuted when it is remem-
bered that several million soldier boys
of Uncle Sam have been INDUCING in
boxing ever since the war broke out,
and of these millions who used the
sport as a conditioner. there are few.
if any, serious accidents to rise up in
argument against the game.

STUDENTS MAY COMPETE
RULINGS TO BE SUSPENDED

New York, Jan. S.-Temporary alb
rogation of the rule requiring approx
mately six months residence at college
before a student is eligible to COM
pete in an Intercollegiate association
of amateur athletics of America cham
pionship has been proposed by the ex-
ecutive committee of that organiza-
ton. Letters have been sent to all
colleges and universities of the associa-
ton calling attention to a meeting of
the committee here January 26 at
which the proposed amendment will
be considered.
1t is proposed that a regular student
in good standing in any member of
| the association at the time he enter
ed the military service of the United
States on returning to the university
or college previous to April /, 1919, be
held to have been in good standing
even though by reason of absence he
has been dropped from his class into
a lower class or had been transferred
from one department to another.
1t is further proposed that residence
as a member of the Students Army
Training Corps, and thereafter with
out interruption as a regular student
shall be regarded as compliance with
the requirements of the association.
Another proposed change would elm
mate the requirement for a full cal
endar years residence of those who
have won places in intercollegiate or
open competition as a condition pre-
cedent for the 1919 championships.
/ Other proposed amendments call for
| the abandonment of the annual indoor
games which normally would be held
on March /, but would continue the
outdoor track and field championship
meet on the final Friday and Saturday
