CLICK GETS
THE GATE

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-rJoe Click
has been suspended indefinitely by
the New York Boxing Commission
for fouling Tod Morgan, junior
lightweight champion, last Friday
night at Madison Square Garden
and still another echo OF that
famous controversy will be heard
Friday when Harold Barnes, one
Of the ringside judges, win be
quizzed by the commissioners.
In his round.by-round score Of
the fight, gave Morgan two rounds
in which the champion was knocked
down by Click. His justification
was that the champion was floored
by foul punches, although the ref
cree did not recognize any of the
punches that felled Morgan as
illegal until the fourteenth round
when he acted promptly and dis
qualified Click.
The question now arises as to
how far judge can go in assum-
ing the duties of a referee and
Barnes will be asked to explain
why he scored three rounds in
direct opposition to the referees
judgment.
1t is probable that the commits
sion will insist on the referees
Judgment on questionable blows
being followed by the judges in

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, May 1S.-Francesco
Caruso never heard of Clarence Oar
row, one of the Nations most noted
criminal lawyers.
Yet the case of Caruso, illiterate
italian laborer, has stirred barrow
and he has volunteered his services
to those trying to save Caruso from
the electric chair.
Caruso, crazed by grief when his
son, Joe, died last February of diph-
iberia, thought that Dr. Casper Pen
dola, who attended the boy, had
killed him by injecting anti-toxin.
So he strangled the doctor.
Condemned to Chair
A jury decided that Caruso should
die in the electric chair.
Since Caruso was sentenced the
ranks of those who think that first
degree murder was severe SEN
tence for his irrational act have
grown. Alexander Marky, chairman
