I don't believe there Is any need
OF asking the question OF. Whats
the Matter With Boxing in Will
mington?" In the FIRST place there
is nothing the matter with boxing
in our town; II is the people. They
can blame no one but themselves
for the conditions which exist.
Take. for instance. the squabble
which was unleashed concerning a
decision given on a bout held re-
Gently at one OF the local clubs.
From the hullabaloo you might
think PRIzE-FTGHTrNG is al
lowed by law in this state. william
H. Springer. Of the Keystone Field
Club. says:
I have attended about as
many shows in and out OF the
city as any man mentioned In
the many letters flung back and
forth In the papers over the de-
clsion spoken about and ] dare
say / have never seen so much
jealousy as exists at the shows
given in Wilmington. The smOk-
ers, shows, bouts. or whatever
you may call them, did not seem
as though they were given for
the entertainment OF the people.
Every man could be seen and
heard, but members OF different
clubs would gather to knock and
kick the other club.
Now / might say that some
Of the newspapers are as much
at fault as the people them
selves. For instance. I asked
one OF the reporters almost two
hours after one OF the shows for
his opinion OF a certain bout and
the reply he gave me was surely
laughable. He said something
about not being able TO give his
decision until he could learn the
weight OF the gloves used. He
was long on dotail-hut what
for? / ask anyone familiar with
the boxing game whether a per-
son giving such an answer 10
such a question Is the sort OF
person who should Judge box
ing bout?
II certain fellows and clubs
would get together and quit
being so jealous and stop knock
ing. everybody would be pleased.
II one paper or one club
should produce better results
than other papers and other
clubs, don't get mad and kick
and run down the other fellow

other dealer was not being collected
from, resulted nthe city commission
this morning instructing a refund Of

paying and that hereafter the tax be
collected from both dealers alike, as
required by the ordinances governing

some time ago the tax had been re-

reason for a short time and that the
collection from him, through mis-
understanding. had not been resumed.
