Secretary found that men and boys
in the Army and Navy as we'll as the
Marines were intensely interested in
boxing and wrestling and baseball,

matches every day there has hardly
been any that have lost their tenn

fifty-fifty and no blood spilled.

department of the "Y'' will be on
strict legal basis according to the
laws of the State for putting on
clean boxing and wrestling matches.

ton for a five thousand dollar sures
ty bond as a guarantee that they
will keep the game clean and

we are after, and bound to have one
