"Ah. yes Money has always been So"

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The
New York State Athletic Com
mission is going to hold another
elimination tournament. Some
day the commission will become
slightly confused and hold a
tournament eliminating the New
York State Athletic Commission,
a situation unique in the annals
of Fistianer, as Harry Balogh
would say.
This latest fistic bonspiel is
to determine who will succeed
Lou Salica of Brooklyn as BAN
tamweight champion of the
world in New York, and if that is
a little confusing don't worry
about it. Nobody else is quite
clear on it, either.
The National Boxing Associa-
ton recognizes Manuel Ortiz as
champion, inasmuch as Ortiz de-
feated Salica in a 12-round bout
last September. The New York
commission makes It's own rules,
however, and to heck with the
rest of the country. One Of the
rules is that championship bouts
shall be of Is rounds. There

Post Position and Outside
Spot Get About Same
Results in RACING

Two hundred horses won from the
No. post position and 1913 won from
the extreme outside position, accord
ing to statistics compiled by AL Bur-
len, clerk of scales at the New York
tracks.
During the 1a9-day New York sea-
son l ,428 races were run. For these
events 14,473 overnight entries were
made, which would average more
than 10 horses to race. However,
1858 horses were withdrawn, leaving
12,115 starters, an average of more
than eight to race
Twenty horses were left at the
post and 13 of these could not get
out of the stall gates because the
doors of the machine did not open.
The money wagered on the l3 left
at the post was refunded, but in
the case of the seven others no re-
funds were made, as the starting gate
was not to blame.
