Whether or not Harry Brandon
will receive any remuneration what
ever for his poor exhibition during
slightly less than six rounds OF
his scheduled tweive-rounder with
Young Montreal at Kenilworth last
night is entirely UP. to the Mary
land State Boxing Commission
which will review the facts and
evidence as presented by Inspectors
Rosenstein and Schuman who were
at the ringside.
As a result OF Brandon's refusal
to mix things after being warned
by Referee Charlie Short that he
would have to fight or the bout
would be declared no-contest,
Young Montreal was awarded a
technical knockout after Brandon's
seconds had tossed in the towel in
the sixth.
Brandon had no apparent marks
of great injury or suffering and the
fowel-tossing act was therefore in
explainable. Neither fighter landed
heavily during their short engage
ment.
Terry O'Day took an easy bout
from Benny Jukes in the semi

DR.. PENN
preston News Service)

Washington, d. c., May 6.-Before
the senate sub-committe on the Judi
ciary in the ''wet and dry" hearing,
DR.. l. Garland Penn, Cincinnati,
Ohio, made plea for the appointment
Of more Negroes as assistant United
States district attorneys and prohibi-
ton enforcement officers as an aid
toward stricter and more general en-
forcement Of the Volstead Act and the
Eighteenth Amendment Said he,
Negro bootleggers are in most cases
affiliated with white bootleggers, and
apprehension of both by Negro Of
ficers is more likely than otherwise. "
The fine work Of former assistant
United States district attorney Beatty
in Cincinnati, was referred to by DR..
Penn in the apprehension and convic-
ton of the many Cincinnati police who
were sent to the Atlanta federal prison.
The fact was also stressed that Ne
groes were interested in the enforce
ment Of all the amendments to the
Constitution. Repeal Of the Eigh-
teenth because of minority insistence
upon violation, and inability to en-
force the same would be the same ar
gument for the repeal of the Fifteenth.
The Charlotte (N- g. Observer stated
that Secretary Penn was one Of the
most interesting witnesses appearing
before the senate committee.
