BOXING DOOMED IN
GLOOMY PROPHECY
Sport to Be Sacrificed Owing
to Alleged Differences Of
Promoters and Managers.
BY CHARLES r. MATHIsON.

Lugubrious warning OF the approach
ing demise Of boxing has been served
on the patrons of the sport. 1t Is de-
clared that certain promoters and man.
ayers do not dwell together in harmony,
and the Walker bill is to be wiped Off
the statute book
1t is further alleged that the trouble
centres about Tex Rickard on one side
and Billy Gibson, Jack Curley and Dan
Morgan on the other. The chief trouble
appears to be the refusal of Gibson to
permit Leonard to box in Madison
Square Garden, and Morgans disinclina-
ton to let Jack Britton engage in bouts
in the famous arena Gibson and Nor
gan have not given reasons for their at
titude. but Rickard has frankly stated
his side Of the case. He says:
II will give Leonard more money to
box in the Garden than he can get any
where else. but neither he nor Gibson
champions opponents. In substance
Leonard will not be permitted to bring
any easy marks into the Garden. / want
the champion to box in the Garden, but
1t must be with a worthy opponent and
at weight, in title match. If the con-
ditions l name are a hardship to Leon
ard or unfair to him 1 would like to
have some one show me wherein II Is
unjust. So far as / am concerned that
is the only difference existing between
Gibson and myself. The same terms are
also open to Britton.
