MARYLAND COMMISSION
PROBES FAKE CONTEST
One Boxer Barred for Life and Two
Colored Heavies Are
in Danger.

BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. 4.-The
newly appointed boxing commission
authorized by the Maryland legisla-
ture. will tolerate no boxing matches
in this city that are not strictly on
their merit As a result, II is the
consensus OF opinion today that Ma
Norfolk. Baltimore, and Jamaica Kid,
New York. will not again be seen in
the same ring in this city.
Norfolk was given the decision
over Jamaica at the end OF twelve
round bout last night. a contest that
was most unsatisfactory. The com
mission toward the end OF the bout
had to caution the two big negroes
to stop hitting with open gloves.
Incidentally the commission ruled
that Mickey Daugherty, OF Baltimore,
"faked" his bout with Bobby Robi-
dan, of Philadelphia, q semi-wind up
eight-round affair. Daugherty could
have won at any stage, but claimed. to
have injured his hand in the seventh
round. Examination failed to reveal
the hurt. Daugherty is barred for life
In Baltimore.
The commission will continue its
investigation, and the rest OF the
crowd, alleged to have had . finger
in the pie. also may come under the
ban.
