 NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The movies went out and got Will Hays, the stage replied with Augustus Thomas, and for some years organized base ball has been in the care of Judge Landis. All are men of such prom. thence as to impart an air of stabil- ity to the industries they govern, and it has suddenly occurred to some master mind, interested in the affairs of fistic games, that something Of this nature might be done for boxing.
 The matter will come up at the annual convention of. the National Boxing Association at the Hotel As tor, January 15 and 16, when boxing commissioners from all states where the sport is legalized will consider various plans for it's betterment. It is understood sponsors of the plan have Big Bill' Edwards in mind for the position. So much for that.
 Seek Official Status
 The proposition goes further, how ever. If a national head can be appointed to. control the sport, the next step will be nothing less than an attempt to secure official toler- ance, if not actual recognition Of boxing in states where it is now taboo. The prominence of the man appointed is expected, of course, to lend dignity to this project. Accord ing to Tex OiRourke, secretary of the association, the groundwork has been laid at Washington for the passing of legislation that would elevate boxing to the status of a national sport Tex declares that Gutzon Borglum. noted sculptor and president of the ill-fated Intarnation- al Sporting Club, has already dis cussed the project with President Harding and officials of the war and navy departments.
 May Be Interested
 Just whether MT. Borglums ideas were given encouragement or polite attention, Tex neglected to state. T. is believed, however. that the presi- dent is more or less interested pro
