BIG TEN AGAINST
COLLEGE BOXING
Attitude of Spectators Said to
be Responsible for Disap-
prOval of Sport.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Dec. 25.-CBy
A. P)-There j. little posi- bil,ty
that any boxing matches viii De
held between Western Conference
teams for several seasons. accorc-
ing to Ernest G. Schroeder, physicai
director of the University of Iowa.
The general attitude Of the schools
is against them. Mr.. Schroeder said.
The Big Ten conference has
never approved boxing as an inter-
collegiate Sport and from present
indications il IS not likely 10 do so
for some time" he said AT the
meeting Of athletic directors and
coaches Of the Big Ten, the sub
Ject was not even mentioned.
The reason for the d-sapproval
with which conference officials view
this sport is not because Of the ma
ture OF the sport Itself but rather
on account Of the attitude OF the
spectators. Boxing IS at the present
time in the same situation that
wrestling was n a few years ago.
At that time there was the same
attitude towards the mat sports as
that which exists against boxing at
the present time. This objection has
been overcome.
The physical department OF the
University Of Iowa has had boxing
a. a part of its curriculum for sew
eraI yeaus. Dave Fgdier, a we'll
known l.ghtweig ht boxer Of Iowa,
has been appointed boxing instruc.
tor here.
