CHUCK VIRGINS
FAILS IN TRIAL
FOR FREEDOM
Local Boxer Is Denied Parole
by State Pardon
Board.
GOVERNOR o. KS ACTION

An appeal for g parole was denied
Charles F. C"Chuck'O Virgins, a local
boxer. by Governor McCray when he ap-
proved the rfport of the State board of
1ardons yesterday. Virgins was con
victed on a charge OF contributing to
the delinquency Of a minor In Marion
County Criminal Court, January Is, 1921,
and sentenced to serve six months at the
penal farm.
Through an appeal to the Supreme
Court, where the judgment of the lower
court was affirmed and sixty day stay
Of sentence granted by the Governor,
Virgins is at liberty. Governor Me
Cray Indicated recently that he would not
grant clemency to Virgins when he said
hat Virgins would have to begin his
sentence at the penal farm when the
sixty-day reprieve ends. The case at
tracted more than usual comment when
one Of the reasons for the reprieva given
was the fact that Virgins had a large
sum Of money posted as forfeits ;or box
ing matches. and Governor McCray
thought that it would be unjust TO make
Virgins lose this sum.
