SPANISH FIGHTER DODGING BATTLE
Back Lame, So Won't Fight Phil Scott

] New York, Oct 20 (UP)-Paolino
 Uzcudun has turned one of his fla
 nous back flip Hops right out of 1.-the heavyweight elimination lineup. The Basque Woodchopper. who
 was to have met Phil Scott, erst-
 while British heavyweight cham
 pion. on November 4, claims to have sprained his broad back ard the bout has been called off.
 Paolino must appear before Dr.
 Walker, boxing commission physi-
 clan, today. and prove his claim to save his forfeit.
 But the bout is off, and Scott. who
 recently dofed fireman's suit and
 3. little red firemans at to become q member of the H. 1T. of C.. E., finds himself without an opponent for his American debut. The horizontal h,avyweights of 1 Great Britain-as young Mir. Scott's organization is called-chipped in and sent Phil to this country in the hopes that he might remain vertical. or at least attain a. 45-degree angle. long enough to dispel some of the derision directed towards this socie- ty.
 Tex Rickard dampcned the ardor of the H. H. of C. B. by naming the Bounding Basque as Scott's first op- ponent.
 It was popularly supposed that the Tottenham Court road hose cart company No. 3 would soon welcome back it's absent member. Scotts stay in the elimination tournament seemed due to end on Nov. 4.
 Paolino already has flattoned Scott, on .he occasion of their last meeting. True. Phil pulled q Jack Sharkey and claimed 70 have been fouled, but as he was in the custom ary horizontal attitude at the time no particular attention was paid to lis protests.
 The bout was to have touched off the winters elimination fireworks, which, if they do not all fizzle the way this example did. will produce the logical contender for the heavy weight championship of the world"
 And then came word from Pao- limos board of managers that the Basque had sprained his back reach- ing across the dining room table at Madame Bey's for the last pork chop-and the fight was called off by Jess McMahon, who tends to at Madison Square /, Garden in Tex Richards absence.
 It ts unlikely that the discovery l that Phil Scott now is being man. aged by James J. Johnston. some times known as the 'Boy Bandit , had anything 10 do with the strain ing of that broad Basque back.
 Yet stranger things have happen cd. Fighters have been known 10 1 sprain more than their backs in alarm al discovering that James J, Johnston will be in the opposite corner.
 Jimmy has way with hin--and if you are a fighter you feel more com fortable if it is your way.
 While he never has managed 10 manage a heavyweight champion of the world. Johnston has not given up hope. He professes to have high hopes for Phil Scott. !
 The departuer Of Paolino leaves the door open for Jimmy to select a somewhat softer spot for his pro- ,ege's debut Perhaps he is not dis pleased at the opportunity.

BOXING GAME IS
 IN NEED 0F GAR
Conditions Bad and Supreme
 Authority Essential
By ALVAN J. GOULD

Associated Press Sports Editor) New York, Oct. 20 LP)-Seldom
 have boxing observers found more
 need of a national governing author
 ity, exercising sweeping instead of limited powers. than do at present,
 with the various ruling bodies in sharper conflict than ever. The conclusion of the National Boxing associations convention in Toledo, has emphasized this conflict, which principally is between the Na- tional Boxing association and the New York State Athletic commits sion. The N. B. A., with boxing au- thorities of A states banded to- gether, has the weight of numbers and widespread representation be- hind it but the New York solons have the advantage of controlling the situation in the country's biggest and richest boxing center.
 The major points of controversy now rage about recognition of champions. It has always been a ring axiom that titles are won or lost in the ring but in these days of reslgnations or retirements, the championship list has been shifted more by legislation than by punches.
 New Divisions have been created, pionship recognition bestowed or withdrawn by proclamation to such an extent that the tracing of many title histories is now a job for genealogists, instead of sports re- viewers.
 The current light heavyweight sit uation, or muddle, according to the point of view emphasizes the ne cessity of some means of get-to- gether. On the retirement of Jack Delaney, New York boxing authori- ties bestowed the crown on the vet eran Mike McTigue who lost it to Tommy Loughran. But the N. B. A. made different arrangements. pro- claiming Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo the successor to Delaney after he whipod MaXey Rosenbloom in an elimination tournament" 10 which others were invited but which actu- ally involved only Rosenbloom and Slattery.
 The lncongrulty of this is appar- ent to boxing writers but they see little prospect of remedy unless some urge brings Slattery and Loughran, the rival champions" into the same ring to settle the ar gument.
 There seems small prospect at present of the New York Boxing board joining official hands with the x. E. \. Strenuous efforts failed several years ago to bring this about. Since then the rival powers have dritted wider apart although the New York board has established working arrangements with several Of the states that belong to the N 1 B. A, such as Connecticut and ppnnSElEaula
