Any thoughts being entertained of a boxirig commission being form- ed in the Province this season were dashed to earth yesterday ‘when 1t was learned that 1n order to have such a body put into force 1t was necessary that legislation be passed during the regular session of the Provincial’ Legislltllfe. ‘ 1' O ‘ll 1' Mr. J. F. Connolly, a former secretary of the Cape Breton Box- ‘eng Commission ‘ when residing the-e was the authority for the above statement and while lt 1s impossible to do anything about it at the present time he stated that; the necessary groundwork could be Laid now so as to have everything in readiness when the House re- convene: next spring. rl- Il- l‘ II The advantages of a boxing com- mission are many. The first and most important fact is that John Q. Public, the one that foots the bills would receive the highest pro- tection and would be certain that fighters were neither overmatched, nor out o! condition. and that no matches could be held without the sanction of the said body. In many cases this would also protect the promoters who in many cases have taken fighters on good faith only to see them on fight night put up an inept performance. t 4- + ~ Then again all participating fnltt-sllngers would have to under- go strict medical exqninaticns by a commission doctor before being allowed to perform and should they fail to come through with con- vincing performances the Commis- sion would have the authority to hold up their purses. 4- 4- 0 0 There is no doubt about it I commission 1s needed in the Prov- ince. As Mr. Connolly stated it will only be a matter of time be- fore boxing is killed in the Prov- ince if such a group is not mm. ed. For the present it will have to be carried on under existing conditions but it scents it is about time that those interested took the bit in their teeth and started mat- ters rolling with the (use, 1n mjnd of having the bill presented next 519F111! at the sittin! 0f the Legis- lature. O 4- 4- 4- And anothermattcr directly con- cerning the game is that if a Com- mission were formed it automati- caliy could affiliate with the Can- adian Boxing Commission, the Do- bminions governing body. Tlfen" my bouts l2 rounds or over would be recognized as legitimate Canadian title bouts with the winner hav- ing full right to the title. 1- -l- t i» In applying for s commission one man or u body of men drew up a petition to be presented to the House to go through as a priv- ate bill. In the petition would be named suggested rnermbers together with Commission doctors, powers and duties of the Commission, etc. The members of the Commission which number either three or four, four with a secretary and three when the secretary acts as a mem- ber would perform their duties without remuneration while the doctors would be allowed their us- ual practicing fee. Five percent of the ‘gate of the fights would go to the Com-mission to be used w de- fray expenses such as “ i fees, etc. 0 l- i- 0 That is the outline of the body as given by Mr. Connolly. It will clear up a lot of the misunder- standing that has been evident re- lative to an immediate formation of such a body and as we stated before it seems about time that stops should be taken relative to‘ the forming of such n. poop, O 1- 0 O A C- mission has proven its worth in o great many othercen- tres and would perform the some work here. It can be easily seen that boxing can go over in o big way hereaboufs. And a body of this kind seems to be the mower. The public and the promoters will be protected fully and VFm-Oflhdltlflfl- ed, evenly matched scrsppers will be seen in notion st alztimes. ‘I Judging by the interest being shoum throughout the City it op- penrs ls if baseball 1| in for its biggest season in years.
