Hopes for Comeback
The new chairman admitted
that professional boxing here Is
not up to the standards of some
years in the past. both in num-
ber and caliber of matches. due
to competition from television
and possibly some other causes.
Were going to do all we can to

I'VE want to cooperate with
the promoters, help them bring
back boxing. but at the same
time we will not lower the stand
ards that have been set here.
There will be no mismatches If
we can help it. Boxers still have
to pass rigid physical exami-
nation, and boxing shows must
be conducted on the highest
planes.
