Biggar Kayos Smith In Third; McCormack Beats Nickerson In 5 Rounds

IN THIS CORNER

After watching last night's box- [ng show at the Forum this writer is more than ever convinced that what the Island needs if boxing is going to make headway is a BOX- ING ION. Several times this has been mentioned but in all cases nothing at sll has been done about it. Whether or not the pro- moters are interested we do not know, but it is surely worth a trial.

9i! 9k 9i! 9i!

Hal Smith, a principal in night's main event looked to be in no shape whatsoever for fighting. There was a. noticeable bulge a- round his waist line and as early g5 the first minute of the fight he was breathing heavily and tiring

rapidly. and that. after we were informed that he was in "good condition.‘ -

9K 9i! 9i! 9i!

This k not the fault of the pro- moters but it is the said promoters that are Boing to take the lickings. In faith the promoters are told that fighters are training steadily and faithfully. Naturally they believe it and give the infor- mation to the public. Then when fight night comes things turn out the and ‘then’ what g. s ii emse V88 n.

e’ it ale 9i! 9i!

Stresslng the Commission once again. If one is formed these men who are interested in sport will have some protection. Before a fighter ever enters s ring he will have to be pronounced 0.1K. by C doctors and the fight lnctioned at the same time. Then the promoters are protected, the ans who pay the piper are pro-

ied and at the same time afight between conditioned battlers is as- nu’

9i! ii! 9i! 9i!

This is only one of the many angla that could be mentioned but it is a very important one. After‘ all if a promoter has a show that

he is the loser. and often quite heavily, and that is the rea- son for these few lines. Whyshould they go on taking lickings when a Boxing Commission will solve a whole lot of their problems and give a forward impetus to the fight

game. 9i! 9i! 9i! 9i!

Get busy you men who wish to pm, on fight cards and form a Commission before it is too late.

An announcement that created quite a stir at last night's fights was that Leo Kelly was to meet Ray. McIntyre. Canadian middle- weight champion hare in a bout on June .

“PQpOff Pof ” Rookie Hurler With A Future

POP OFF POFF (By Paul Mlckelson, Associated Press Sports Writer) NEW YORK, June 2-An up t0 date report on Mr. Cletus Elwood Poffenberger of the Maryland. West Virginia, Iowa and Detroit

Poffenbergers.

His pals on the Detroit ball club call their eccentric rookie pitcher everything from "Boots” to “Baron" to just "Pop-off”. Like Mrnager Mickey Cochrane. they think he's as delightful asa raise

salary. His escapades so far have been as harmless and funny.

Because this is the Baron's first full season with the Tigers, you won't find him in the current edition of who's who in baseball and there are times when you can't find the Baron at all. He has a. habit of making strange disappearances.

He's a big, chunk of a. guy but he always dresses in jet black clothes, which makes it all the harder for Mickey Cochrane and his scouts to locate him. How- ever, Cochrane think; the Baron is refreshing because he has a great future as a pitcher and he never tells a lie. Once Mickey ?hfi.]i;I1KEd the Baron when he

"Oh ‘I just got cockeyed." said the Baron
