 scheduled for Friday night by the Popular
 Athletic club was suddenly called Of fate
 Friday f0or1ipy by the local promoters 1'hdrIlas Dpneilue of NeH- London, one of | the dne5rbera og the state boxing coag1Ilis-
 sion called itp Chief 'oC Palics Daniel J. 1Iillourey to notify him to stop the bout should any atten.ct be made to hold it. II
 was claimed ny the state co-nmissioner that the club promoters had violated aev-
 eraI of the rules Of the boxing laT wllich was tho reason for calling off the show His sentiments, he said were also those of the rest of the eo1ralission. Messrs. John T. Nichols and Louis \ Dondaro of the Popular Athletic cluh were then notified by Chief 1Gillourey tlla'
 he had received orders to prohibit the eX- liitition. The chief was reassured that Tt
 Attempt would be made to m the show under the cirernlstances. The promoter: were greately9 troubled to find that the out of town boxers who had pdlt in aI early appearance in the afternoon had t
 De turned back on account of the calling off of the show.
 The main reason seemed to De because
 only one Of the contestants on the program had a boxing license and that was Dicl Berry Of IIolyolze. Berry was to meet Jo' Werner in the main bout. The boHins law states that every. contestant matched ! must have 3 license at least five day: before the date of the advertised bout il which he is to participate. In the c3se O the local cl-i5 that would have bee ias
 Saturday night. Anotber objection of 1h' commission was that tho fo1feitS had no
 keea r.osted within the required time. I'll prouoters. however say that these hH- heen attended to.
