TUT JACKSON SUSPENDED.
New York Herald.)

The State Athletic Commission
yesterday announced the suspension
of Tut Jackson, who played the part
of punching bag for Harry Wills;
his manager, Billy Palmer, and his
publicity promoter, William McCar-
ney. The suspensions will remain in
force until such time as the circum-
stances are investigated. The charge
against the manager is that he mis-
represented the facts as to Jackson's
physical, qualifications and also his
fighting ability.
The commission reinstated Edward
Forbes, Brooklyn writer on sports
and referee, who was suspended fol-
lowing dispute with former Deputy
Commissioner Tom O'Rourke regard
ing seat in the press row at Ebbets
Field. O'Rourke sought to have
Forbes vacate the seat and is alleged
to have struck the reporter when the
latter refused to give up his seat.
The suspension Of Tom Stanley, a
manager, having been raised by the
Connecticut commission, the New
York commission took similar action.
