Military Boxer Has Made Ex-

In the emergency Of an entire alb

with an excellent match for Wednes-

the Pioneer Sporting Club next Friday

good sport to the patrons OF boxing
across the big bridges.
In view Of recent numerous amateur
boxing bouts in this city patrons have
had a chance to study the differences
of rules as between the three FOUNDERS
and the professionals. Especially Is
this noticeable In the matter of a
knockdown. The professional boxer
who receives q knockdown must arise
and resume boxing within ten seconds
or be counted out by the referee and
declared the loser. This ends the con-
test.
In the case Of an amateur boxer be-
ing knocked down. It Is In the power

continue. However, If the referee
thinks the boy can be revived suffi-

the boxer to his corner for minutes

credit for Knockout However. under
A. A. u. rules there Is no counting over
a knocked down man, and only In the
event that the referee thinks boxer Is
unable to continue Is a knockout re-
corded.
In the case Of boy getting a jolting
knockdown in the opening round. which
under a count would result In him being
declared the loser, 1t would seem a bit
brutal to send him out again after a
slight rest.
Those in charge of intercollegiate box
