Preparations for Commander Rich
ard 2. Byrd's transatlantic flight in
the monoplane America are being
made. When he hops off was still
matter of conjecture today but
he may leave within q week, per-
haps sooner.
Reports that Byrd might depart
at any moment were deprecated this
morning at the offices Of Rodman
Wanamaker. backer of the flight.
1t was pointed out that it was
extremely unlikely that Byrd would
take off today in view of the I'M
favorable weather which prevailed.
A steady drizzle of rain fell all
morning.
Inspects His Plane
Byrd, however, went to Roosevelt
Field and looked over his ship in
the hangar. Already sone on the
emergency supplies are aboard.
Before he starts for Europe, Byrd
will make a. test flight.
Meanwhile, James H. Kimball, of
the Weather Bureau, who prepared
weather charts for Lindbergh and
Chamberlin, will chart ocean maps
for Byrd.
An engineer Of the pioneer in
gtrument company has tested the
compasses on the plane under the
supervision of Byrd. Weather re-
ports are to be asked twice daily
from the masters of all vessels in
the north Atlantic.
Byrd's destination is Paris, and
Paris only. it was stated. He has
announced he is making the flight
in the interests of the scientific adj
vancement Of aviation.

PETROLLE KNOCKS OUT TOMMY MURPHY
IN THIRD UND-LER0Y WINS, OVER
PAGAN SPUD MURPHY KAY0ES FLYNN

Fargo, N. d., Jan. 3--Two terrific
wallops to the jaw, one a wide left
swing and the other a short right
hook, gave Billy Petrolle, the Fargo
Express, Il victory over Tommy (KiD
Murphy of Trenton here Saturday
afternoon.
The end came most dramatically
after one minute of lighting in the
third round, and it came so suddenly
that it electrified a near capacity
crowd at the Fargo auditorium.
Petrolle's great victory topped off
a card which was replete with action
from start to finish.
Leroy Beats Pagan
Russic Leroy, second section Of the
Fargo Express, scored victory over
Irish Danny Pagan Of Newark by
betty punching in 10 round bout
while Spud Murphy Of Moorhead,
junior lightweight champion Of the
New England states, knocked out
Matt Flynn Of st. Paul in the third
round of scheduled 10 rounorr.
Earl Orion of Moorhead defeated
Herman Ratzlaff of Minot in the four
round curtain raiser.
PetrOlle Has Own Way
It was Uncle Willie Petrolle's day,
no doubt about that. He faced one
of tho cleverest and fastest boxers
the lightweight division has produced
in recent years and completely out
boxed him.
In the first two rounds Of the bat
tie both fighers were cautious, very
few heavy punches being thrown
Murphy opened by using a straight
left jab but he found Petrolle to be
an elusive target Time after time
Billy bobbed and ducked under that
left to counter with punches to the
head and body. Murphy was worried
before the close Of the initial session
because he was unable U land his
favorite punch.
When they came back for the sec
ond it was evident that Charley Hig-
gins had instructed Murphy to keel
jabbing and dancing away. Murphy
! did this but he had trouble in land
ing. Petrollc kept boring straight in
ducking the leads and countering-
worrying his adversary with singing
blows on the arms, body and heat

= 3 SPORTS e.
!. JUDGES WILL
DECIDE BOUTS
IN ILLINOIS
Boxing Commission Finds
That Leaving Decision to
Referee Unsatisfactory

Chicago, Jan. 3-tR-The Illinois
state athletic commission, charged
with responsibility in the conduct OF
boxing and wrestling, has riffled the
cards regulating the sport, and IN
the new deal the decisions in fights
will be given by two judges, seated
on opposite sides of the ring. Inc
new ruling came about as a result OF
dissatisfaction with the decisions OF
referees, who. heretofore had the
last word when it came to- deciding
the winner or loser OF boxing
matches in Illinois.
The referee will have vote in the
rendering of decisions only when the
two Judges cannot agree. In that
event the referee comes back into ms
own and really decides the contest.
In announcing the new method OF
returning the verdict on the boxers
The commission pointed out that the
referees decision system had been
only an experiment There had been
considerable rumblngs about the
poor work of the referees, and the
matter came to a climax when Mickey
Walker was declared the winner over
Tiger Flowers in their middlewcight
championship fight. Many commended
that Flowers had retained his title,
and the subsequent protests resulted
i'm the adoption Of the Judges system
which is in vogue in New York ANA
Pennsy lnavnia.
A Hard job
The referee usually rs in Il tough
spot. The third man in the ring who
decides which Of two lighters has
won, or lost, must have lot of nerve
and he needs it, because no matter
what decision he renders. there
usually is protest, sometimes
feeble one, but at other times the pro-
test assumes loud proportions. And
It has been that way since the game
started back in the days when the
battlers fought it out on the turf
with bare knuckles.
The only time there is no come
hack on the referee is when mar
twins off by himself, or scores
Knockout that leaves his opponent
snrawled on the resin covered can

With some exceptions, the judg
ment Of the references in Chicago has
been criticised.

Takes Bad Tumble

Petrolle came out little more de-
terminedly in the third. They fiHdl%a
around for a short time, both boxers
feinting in and out in an effort to
make an opening. Murphy led left
and missed. Petrolle moved in closer
and Murphy threw right which
Petrolle vent under.
That missed right proved the un-
doing d the Trenton flash. Quick as
lightning Petrolle jumped in and he
landed a hard left swing flush on
Murphy's jaw. The blow raised the
Trenton fighter fully foot off the
floor and he fell heavily on his Shout
ders. He raised himself up on one
knee before Referee Leo Kossick
started the count and took nine.
As Murphy arose he did not appear
to be. suffering. He danced around
lightly for few seconds and it ap-
peared as though he were going to
weather the storm. They moved
around the ring once and Petrolle
crowded him into the ropes. As
Tommy attempted to maneuver his
way out, Petrolle let 60 with a per-
fcctly timed right hook which landed
squarely on the point Of the chin.
Murphy fell backwards and never
moved a muscle untira few seconds
after the completion of the count. II
took fully five minutes to revive him
after he was carried to his corner.
