1t is the intention of the organizers
to standardize the boxing rules for
each and every State to adopt joint
agreement to bar any delinquent or Of
tending boxer in all States. If suspended
by the National Association, and to COM
pei champions TO defend their titles at
reasonable fixed intervals under penalty
OF forfeiting the title. 1t is also the
intention of those interested to advocate
the abolition of the huge purses which
have recently been offered for boxing
matches as discrediting boxing. and to
work for reasonable admission prices at
all matches. as is the case in baseball,
football and other sports of national
character.
1t is further proposed to stop the
filming of boxing bouts as harmful to
the sport. The new organization will
cooperate with the national boxing bod
les OF other nations with the idea of
having one international code for the
governing of boxing in order to make
the sport clean, wholesome. humane
and to elevate it to the plane enjoyed
by other sports and pastimes.

Owing to physical disability due to an

his engagement with Jack Sharkey at

However. Tex Rickard has engaged a
capable substitute in the person Of Roy
Moore Of st. Paul. The Minnesotan Is
most decidedly rugged, combative per-
son, and he can be depended on to make
a more interesting contest with Sharkey
than Pal Moore would. Sharkey is the
most aggressive bantam In the ring. and
with strong, aggressive man in front OF
him there should be an interesting en-
counter.
