Permit Price Boost
OF Ringside Seats

NEW YORK, Sept. "A maxi
mum price for ringside seats for
boxing bouts between topnotchers
has been fixed at S25 each for the
winter season in New York by the
State boxing commission in a ruling
made public today, which grants
permission to promoters to increase
the cost of the best seats from the
present maximum of SIS to s25.
In order to offset the increase
permitted for the best seats the
commission ordered that the num-
Der of general admissions" must
be increased. and that the number
of reserved seats must be reduced
to provide for the additional cheap
seats. The two rulings. in the
opinion of the commission, will
prove beneficial to the general
public without working a hardship
on promoters.
The commission had a busy day.
In addition to the new rulings on
seats and prices, the commission
determined a definition of a knock
out" The definition harks way
back to the Dempsey-Willard cham
pionship bout at Toledo, when a
lengthy argument ensued as to the
round in which Willard was
knocked out. Jess was not out at
the end of the third round, but did
not appear for the fourth. He
was never actually counted out by
the referee.
The commission made this ruling:
when a man is unable. after be-
ing knocked down, to arise unaided
inside of ten seconds, and a boxer
who is in distress but still on his
feet and the referee intercedes to
save him, or II while in his corner
his manager and seconds throw up
the sponge, the decision shall be
stopped in so many rounds"
Dempsey. the commission cites as
example. stopped Willard in three
rounds. according to the New York
State boxing law.

THE CRISIS IN SOUTHERN
MARYLAND TOBACCO

From every county in South
ern Maryland, comprising the
tobacco growing belt of the State
come reports that the farmers
of this section are facing a crisis
in which the future of their
staple crop is directly concern
ed, says the Annapolis Advertise
er. 1t involves a question of no
less Importance than the aban-
donment of tobacco growing and
the substitution for it of some
other industry, such as dairying.
In fact. the project of an inter-
county creamery in Southern
Maryland has already gotten we'll
under way and if the production
of milk and butter and the oper-
ations of the creamery provid1.
at least a living for the farmers.
it will be more than the tobacco
market has afforded them for
the past year, and more than the
present prospects indicate.
Tobacco growing in Southern
Maryland is just as much of an
institution as cotton growing is
in the South or corn growing in
the Middle West, and yet a pc
culiar situation exists here in
that we we have had but one
market for our tobacco, and our
growers have become ::accustom-
ed to. receive without question
whatever price the French buy
ers were disposed to pay them,
because of the fact that they
have had monopoly on this
grade. 1t may be, of course,
that for Southern Maryland to-
bacco there can be found SUBJ
stltute acceptable to the French
Government, and that if our
farmers stop growing tobacco
and cut off the supply, the buy
ers can get along just as we'll
without this particular type Of
tobacco.
1t would probably be just as we'll
that there should be a show down
on this without further delay,
and this is precisely what is in
dicated under present conditions.
Our farmers undoubtedly want
to keep on growing tobacco, but
they, have come to realize that
they are entitled to an adequate
price fori and rather than keep
on heading for the financial rocks
they will steer clear and go in
to other branches of industry
which will enable them to get
ahead.
