NEW YORK, May (R.-Primo
Camera and his managers, william
Duffy and Leon See, have fled am
daWts in Federal Court replying to the
request OF the Madison Square Garden
Corporation Of Illinois for an injunc-
ton restraining Camera from boxing
Jack Sharkey at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn,
June 10. Hearing on the Injunction
Is scheduled for tomorrow morning.
Camera, Duffy and See quote Fed
eral statutes which declare prize fight
ing Illegal and claim that the contract
the corporation holds L. invalid be-
cause 1t is one-sided.
The Camera forces commended that
the Federal Court should refuse to en-
terrain jurisdiction because a United
States court should not lend its aid
to enforce any contract to further an
act in contravention to the estab-
lished policy of the Government re-
garding boxing contests.
The defendants admit that an agree
ment was made with the corporation
for Camera to fight the winner Of the
