BERKELEY. Calif.. Sept. IS. - From the law library at the Univer- sity of California to the lightweight championship of the west is a mean step taken by Earl France, Los An- geles boy.
 France is twenty-one and has been earning his way through school by boxing four-round contests through out California.
 He left school last February and annexed the title of the southwest from Tommy Carter. and then re- lieved Jimmy Duffy of his class as champ of the West and Northwest.
 He then took the crowns from Tait, lightweight champion of Canada, Australia and the British Isles.
 France holds titles over more terri tory than is ruled by any other light weight, with the exception of Benny Leonard, whom he hopes to meet dur ing the coming year and then return to the study and practice of law
 Earl France and Frankie Farren of San Francisco both claim the light weight championship of the Pacific coast. The title is in Lispute and the boys have agreed to settle the argu- ment at Phoenix where they can go 10 rounds if necessary.
 France leaves Monday for Phoenix and Farren is already on the road. They are scheduled to meet in the Arizona capital Friday. September 23. Fight fans throughout the country will watch with interest the outcome of this fight as it will determine the logical contender for crack at Leonard's title.

The New York State Athletic commission has made new ruling under which Dc<ers in prelims are to get paid by the round, no fighter to get more than S10 per round. If there is a k. o. the winner gets paid for the number of rounds scheduled, while the loser gets his only up to the minute he kisses the canvas.
 Strew that sort of laws around the country thfckly and maybe the can- vas won't feel quite so cushion like to the quitters. For cushion with out the cousin isn't so pleasant.
 Clever idea and one that will bring results. 'Spose we try it in Phoenix and see how it works Perhaps we can incorporate this feature in the new Phoenix boxing ordinance now under consideration by the Athletic Commission.

 Scalping
 Not too early to speak a piece about ticket scalping in the world series.
 Especially if the two New York teams should cop, there must be strict precautions taken to guard against it. For with a one-town series thousands more fans will fight to attend all the games than if the affair was a see-saw series between cities.
