When the promoters lose financially. the boxers will soon learn that fewer promoters are willing to stage big boxing shows. When every boxer | is unwilling to take a chance with j the promoters on what the gate receipts may prove to be, boxing becomes purely a money and all sportmanship is lost. When the element of sportmanship is lost, even from professional athletics, the public will soon be drawn | away from the attendance. It is right for boxers to get what heir work is worth, even though the price is thousands of dollars, but -they I must not dissapoint the boxing fans. | Tommy Gibbons is probably the | most popular boxer in the world to- I day. He fought Jack Dempsey for the boxing championship and not for money. Lew Tendler, the Philadelphia lightweight, who failed to get into the ring last week at Michigan City witli Sailor Freedman lost much of his popularity with the boxing fans. I It seems that Tendler’s manager was worried because he did not see I all of the $15,000 purse in front of I him before the match. I An excellent example of true sport- I manship among professional boxers 1 1 was shown by Bud Taylor just before I the Memorial Day races. When an Indianapolis promoter was I singing the blues because the gate I was not as heavy as he thought it I would be, Taylor took a SI,OOO in his I guarantee rather than disappoint the I fans. I FROG EYES BOOK GAME WITH WAYNE KNITTING MILLS I The Frog Eye baseball team has I booked a game with the Wayne Knit- I ting Mills team, of Fort Wayne, to I be played on the former’s diamond I next Sunday. A good game is prom- I ised. The Frog Eyes won a fast I ■luyne from the Dixon, Ohio, nine last ] Sunday. |
