Is Held Great
Boxing Evil
Remedy Up to State
Boards, Not Gar,
Triner Contends
BY EARL HILLIGAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer

CHICAGO, June ga national
championship rating board, more
cooperative help from the various
State governing bodies and a page
from baseballs success book-those
are bookings greatest needs today in
the opinion of Joe Triner, chairman
of the Illinois Athletic Commission:
Throwing several sharp, verbal
punches for the sport-not at it
Triner said: Boxing does not need
any national dictator or car in a
democracy such as ours. But it has
certain needs if it is to benefit from
the natural interest it always has
held with the Nations sports fans.
Small Promoters Need Help.
commissions in the various States
should make it their business to
treat small promoters in the way
the businessman treats a customer
with consideration and respect.
The commissions should see that
young fighters are not Overmatched:
that obviously poor bouts not be
ballyhooed into matches which are
certain to disappoint the public.
With a dearth of good material,
commissions should not allow the
few good young fighters to be rushed
into bouts over their heads. AnG
natural bouts between beginning
youngsters in small towns should
not be moved into larger cities. The
sman-toWn boxing fan is the back
bone of the sport and he should re-
ceive fair break"
Trlner said he believes a national
rating board would "eliminate the
silly situation of boy being recog-
nlzed as champion in one State and
not in another.
Urges Promotional Picture.
Those States not wishing to Join
the National Boxing Association
should, for the good of the sport,
co-operates on forming a National
Rating Committee to name cham
plonS and contenders," he con-
tinued. Such a body would do
much toward protecting the public
from supporting mediocre matches
often billed as championship
events.
Thirdly. I think boxing needs a
promotional motion picture such as
major league baseball has developed
with so much success. Such a pic
ture. showing the fine points of the
sport; could be narrated by a promi-
nent figure such as Jack Dempsey
or Jim Braddock and shown in col
leges, universities and high schools.
"Such a picture would help teach
the youth Of the Nation something
OF the manly art of self-defense
1t would be a step toward earning
the support of parents. The public
has become little discouraged be-
cause OF the selfish interests that
have cropped up in the sport"
