Howard Livingston, m atch-
maker at the Rialto Theater, ap-
piled today to the District Box
ing Commission for sanction for
a 10.round bout between Andre
Jesserun and Vittorio Ventura, for
Friday, January IA. Ventura and
Jesserun were to have boxed here
tomorrow night, but were Sus-
pended locally for engaging in 10
round bouts in New York city.
Mike Burke, manager Of Jes-
serum telephoned Livingston today
saying that he would gladly agree
to meeting Ventura here at the. =
terms of the original contract.
Burke asserted that he had talked
to Louis Soresi, Venturi's mana.
ger this morning, and that Soresi
was entirely willing to come down
here.
WON IN NEW YORK
Jesserun defeated frankie
Cinque in 10-round fight at the
New York Coliseum on Tuesday
night, and Ventura turned in one
of the most workman-like jobs of
the winter season in decisively out
pointing frankie Blair at the
Hippodrome last night. Neither
JeSSerun nor Vittori was injured
in their respective bouts, and there
is no reason why they should not
be paired here in the contest
originally arranged.
"All's well that ends WELL"
Livingston told the writer this
morning as he scanned the re.
ports of Venturis victory over
the clever, fastmoving Blair.
Both Jesserun and Ventura
scored sensational victories and
came through uninjured. I
might have gambled on some
such development, but the
chance was too long, and in JUS
tice to the Washington public,
I had to go as I did.
SANCTIONS MATCH
Lieut.. Col. Heinie Miller of the
United States Marine Corps, Re-
serve, indicated today that the
District Boxing Commission would
Immediately sanction the match
as originally made, and that just
as soon as the men went through

ing Association would be with
drawn The New York States
Athletic Commission, in whose
jurisdiction the fighters now stand
suspended for violation of their
Washington contracts, will be
notified forthwith that the fight
ers have been granted a clean
bill of health.
JeSSerun had a decided weight
advantage in his match with
Cinque, but Ventura fought Blair,
ranking No. 2 WelterWeight, at
even weights. Both boys scaled
148 pounds.
Ventura beat Blair by fighting
a carefully planned battle. He
started out with a smashing left
hook and stayed right with it
until Blair began to use a high
right hand defense. Then Ventura
tented the hook but switched to
a battling jab and a right cross
that scored points. Ventura cut
his opponent over the right eye
with left hook, and altogether
turned in a very high grade bit
