Worlds Bantam Champion Is
Penalized for Poor Showing
Against Jack Wolfe.
BY CHARLES #. MATHIsoN.

The New York State Athletie Com
mission, through Chairman MuIdoon.
ordered the management OF Madison
Square Garden yesterday to cancel a
match that had been arranged for Joe
Lynch, the bantam champion of the
world. The penalty thus imposed re-
suited from the miserable showing that
Lynch made against Jack Wolfe of
Cleveland when they met in the Garden
several weeks ago. Lynch Is not under
suspension and is free to box in any
club in this State except the Garden.
In explaining his action in the mat
ter Chairman Muldoon said: Joe
Lynch was one OF tho contestants In
the first bout in the Garden after my
appointment as chairman of the COM
mission. and he had splendid oppor-
tunity before him to get lucrative
matches and make a name for himself.
Yet he tossed away his chance and by
failing to keep In good physical con-
dltion and give a good account OF him.
self in the ring he forfeited public and
official approval.
by way OF discipline the commits
sion will refuse TO permit him TO box
in the Garden for an indefinite period.
He may box anywhere else he may
please. and If no amends his ways and
gets into proper physical condition he
may later on become eligible to a bout
In the Garden"
This action by the commission marks
the first time that n boxer has been
punished by being excluded from the
Garden ring and IL is likely TO cause
the other champions to do some serious
thinking.

WHY:
Engagement Ring Has Become
| RecoRnized Institution

There wasn't much romance con-
nected with the ring back in the
Second century. Il. c.. when woman
first began to flash it Oh the fourth
finger Of her left hand rs a symbol
OF hetr"thal. The engagement ring
originated as Il "safpiy first" inStiti.
ton to hold tickle and forgetfu man
to his bargain from the time he made
his first aN"wnl of love until the we'd
ding ceremony took place. As ali
ancient document reveals:
There are many men who. for.
getful Of their plighted faith, defer
the fu'tillmrnt of their nuptinl con
tracts. Therefore there shall be- a
solemn declaration before witnesses
and hctrothal ring given and nc.
crpted."
An old German formula reads:
Il give You this ring a> n sign Of
the lnnrriagc which has been promised
between us. provided your father
gives with you Il marriage portion Of II
thousand rpichtalers."
During the Seventeenth century
England chose to nave the engage
ncnt ring adurn the thumb. The rcu.
son why English women wore them on
their thumbs during the reign OF
George I. was because they were too
large tn wear on any other finger.
The old Hebrew hetrothal rings were
almost as large as turn!ps. including
In their supprStructure reproductions
OF Soiomon's temple or some other
sacred building
At one time the engagement ring
consisted of three hoops looped to-
gether into what was known as a
glnmcl or puzzle ring. When the
wedding took place one Of these hoops
was kept by the bride, one given &c
the groom and the third bestowed on
an intimate friend who acted as wit
ness to the ceremony.

Origin Of "Douphboy."

The word "douGhboy" ia slang
military term applied to an infantry
man in the United States army. The
word dates from the Civil war when
army wit was aroused by the large
globhlar brass buttons on infantry
uniforms. Someone-he must have
been sailor-dubbed the buttons
"doughboys" because they reminded
him Of the boiled dumplings OF raised
dough that are so frequently served
in ships messes and are known to
all sailors rs "doughboys."
