1T believe that referee should be vested with full authority in declaring the winner of a fight. Let a referee go in there and keep the fighters moving and then let him give an unbridled decision. This ystem of bookkeeping in scoring doesn't belong either, and tends to take the referees mind off his in- tended job. A qualified referee should know at the end of a fight who won."
 The Connecticut system, he said, was more satisfactory than that in New York.
 Making It Easy
 ''Here," he said, your referee gives the decision as he should, but he has to juggle score card, which doesn't belong. What a referee should do is file a report with the commissioner and under the heading Remarks state in a few words how he arrived at his decision.
 ''In deciding a fight a referee should consider aggressiveness, clean punching and the condition of the fighters at the finish"
 Dempsey identified as "Mr X," the next opponent of Maxie Baer. heavyweight title holder.
 Right now there isn't a logical challenger in sight," he said.

In study OF the trend in British

developments have been taking place
in England for several months which
had greater influence on investment

Particular reference is made to the
policy Of the British government in
