MOOSE-LEGION
GET BIG DATE

The Loyal Order of Moose and the
American Legion will unite it Is said,
in staging an an-star boxing card on
May 20, The night before the Speedway
races. The match coveted date was
awarded jointly TO the two organizations
by the Indianapolis boxing committee
at a meeting Sunday afternoon.
Along with the Moose and Legion, the
Progress Athletic Club, the Junior
Chamber Of Commerce and the Indiana :
polls Baseball Club had requests filed
departure of the Indians for Marlin
Springs, Texas, Sunday. President Will
liam c. Smith got in touch with Chair
man VIM and withdrew the applica-
ton OF his club. The Moose and Legion
had agreed to combine In putting on
the show, il is said, and after a spirited
discussion the date was awarded to the
two organiza tons.
Commissioner Moroney opposed the
a~arding Of the date at this time, II
being his contention that no permits
should be granted so far In advance.
The commission previously had placed
a sixty day limit on permits. He also
urged that before the date be awarded
that another open meeting be held and
all clubs given another chance. The
commission previously had reduced the
number Of eligible clubs for. the May
Indianapolis ball club, which withdrew.
The Progress Athletic Club and the
Greater Indianapolis Athletic Club were
left In the running, but Commits sioners
VIM and Tyndan voted to dissolve
their former agreement and thus the
Moose and Legion were able to grab
of the date.
