NEW YORK. Feb 1.-THE claims OF
IN some OF our perfectly Legitimate
boxing champions to world S
titles may be disputed by French and
British members Of the International
Boxing union, according 20 reports
being waited across the pond
The new organization which hopes
70 standardize rules, weights and
various other phases Of boxing
throughout the world, viii meet in
Paris in February. and it is said that
attempts will be made TO show flaws
in several worlds championship
claims and declare the titles open 10
competition.
Fact is. II we guess correctly. some
OF our brethren on the other side Of
the Atlantic are a bit desperate be-
cause Of the corner on boxing titles
that is held so firmly by Americans.
We have on this side OF the water no
less than five legitimate worlds

Dempsey's crown. descended from

Benny Leonard's title has come
down the line through a long sue

Dick Burge before the National Sport

Frank Erne, Joe Cans. Bat Nelson.
Ad WOlgast, Willie Richie and
Freddie Welsh were recognized
