Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAM*”
NEW YORK, June 26—On the recommendation of Frank Wiener, chairman of the body, the Pennsylvania boxing commission has fined old George Godfrey *5,000 and suspended him for life as a penalty for the foul blow with which he groined Primo Camera over in the Phillies' ball park the other night. It is also disclosed that William Duffy and his associates in the management of the Italian giant have been indefinitely suspended because Duffy in a moment of temperamental pique is alleged to have swatted one of tne commissioner’s vassals between the eyes back in the dressing room before the fight. a a a It leemi the gentleman who Is alleged to kin been swatted by Duffy bed called in the course of his nightly routine with the Intent of nertuadlnr one of the refined brutes connected with the visiting circus to degarb himself in a groin protector adopted and sanctioned by the eommls. ion as a reasonable safeguard against injuif.
Fr r some reason it appears Duffy did not care to be annoyed bv such trivial thlrgs and when the gentleman persisted IDufv. If the allegation Is true, hauled off and smacked him down to the size of an ash tray after the manner of a busy executive who 1s a stickler for direct action. It develops Wiener and his associates are righteously Indignant and It Is with no little Judicial pride that they Invite their constituents to contemplate and applaud the verv drastic action which they have handed out. a a a WILL all the parishioners please stand and tear off a long impious yawn? This legalized larceny that is known as prize fighting is beset with so many definite and distinct social evils that it may be extravagant to say that of all the evils the various boxing commissions are the worst. Perhaps it is best to be conservative and say that the commissions are merely one of the worst. a a a Consider the Godfrey-Carnera fiasco. On a prior, occasslon Godfrey had been banned in Pennsylvania, because of a performance attended by suspicious elicumstanees. If my memory is alert I think it i* Mr. Wiener himself who authorized this earlier suspension. Moreover, at the time he publicly characterized the sport of saps as a racket Infested by disreputable characters and unworthy of public support. a a a Meanwhile Camera and hi* Broadway manipulators were moving from coast to coast running up a string of knockouts, some of which were legitimate and some of which were not. At the time the God-frev-Camera match was made the Negro had done nothing to atone for his previous of the moral code, and Camera was banned in more than thirty states following an investigation by the national boxing commission. a a a WELL, in view of these circumstances, why did Mr. Wiener and his associates decide that these two noble athletes should be brought together in a prize fight? Don’t look to me for the answer; I don’t know. Theoretically, boxing commissions are obligated to protect the citizenry against grave misrepresentations and unsatisfactory exhibits in much the same manner that the cop on the comer is supposed to serve as a guarantee against criminal disturbance in the neighborhood. a a a It would seem that the most effective way to serve this end would l>e to refuse to sanction any match involving prize fighters with questionable records. Godfrey and Camera coaid not have fought in Pennsylvania if Mr. Wiener and his associates hadn't certified them. The fact that they did certify them placed the burden of responsibility entirely on the rommissioners. That the match wound up in the usual fouling fiasco is an indictment that can be charged solely to the credulity, if not the laxity, of the said rommissioners. a a a This being so it seems wholly unjust to fine old George $5,000 and suspend the Camera stable. The primary offenders were the optimistic commissioners themselves. WITH TRACTORS Pitcher George Berger, who hurled for Bloomington and Springfield, has been signed by the Peoria Tractors. At the same time, pitchers George Edmondson and Ray Finn were released.

Os course. Lance who fired a 74 at Highland Monday, a 72 at the Indianapolis Country Club Tuesday and a 72 at the Broadmoor course in the final eighteen holes Wednesday, won with a total of 218. The fight for second was a challenge to Eddie Zimmer, who had ruled the local amateur ranks for years. It was an open fight right down to the wire with several players having a chance for the runnerup position, including Zimmer. But it took a brillian 70, two under par, by Dave Mitchell, to give him a three day total of 77-77-70 for 224, to clinch the second position. Coupled with Mitchell’s brilliant round Wednesday was a sterling performance on the last nine holes of play by veteran Bill Reed Sr. of Riverside, who came home in 32, five strokes under par.

Maxie Is Winner of Title Bout Rosenbloom Gains Undisputed Light-Heavy Crown by Beating Slattery. By United Press BUFFALO, N. Y., June 26. Maxie Rosenbloom of New York today held undisputed possession of the world light heavyweight championship, the first accepted champion since Tommy Loughran retired undefeated in 1929 to try his luck in the i eavyweight division. Rosenbloom clinched his claim to the title Wednesday night with a fifteen-round decision over Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo, the New York athletic commission’s nominee for the championship. Rosenbloom previously had won rescognition as world champion from the National Boxing Association. The Harlem harlequin has been boxing for seven years, but until last year was regarded as a clown fighter with no pretensions to the throne. During the past year he has met and defeated every contender for Loughran’s vacated title and his record clearly entitles him to the championship. Wednesday’s decision was a divided one and highly unpopular with the 18,00 fans, who paid approximately $60,000 to witness the bout, although ringside boxing writers credited Rosenbloom variously with from seven to ten rounds and Slattery with from two to five. Referee Patsy Haley gave his decision to Slattery, but he was overruled by Judges Ccorge Patrick of Brooklyn and George Kelly of New York, both of whom voted for Rosenbloom.

Split Race Plan Best for Tribe Battered Indians Drop Two and Fall Into Sixth Hole in Standing. Bu Times Bnerinl MINNEAPOLIS, June 26.—1f th American Association magnates vote for a split season and end the first half early in July, it will be a lucky break for Johnny Corriden’s Indians. They dropped a doubleheader here Wednesday, 8 to 5 and 7 to 6, and today were about eleven and one-ha.'f games behind the league-leading Louisville Colonels. President Hickey has called for a vote of club owners to discuss the split plan, and it is believed the majority will be in favor of the change. The magnates will gather in Chicago, July 1, to decide the question. Eight in Row Mike Kelley’s Millers lengthened their winning streak to eight games, by downing the Hoosiers twicj Wednesday, but even so, the Floufl City nine is still in seventh placfl below the Tribesmen in sixth pep sition. It was a queer lineup for Indian® apolis out there on the field at thq close of the twin bill opener, with* an outfielder on first base, a pitcher on second, a catcher on third, a second baseman on short, and a pitcher in left field. Injuries, illness and shortstop Warstler’s suspension have wrecked the Indians and it’s a puzzle how they keep battling. In the first tilt Wednesday, Walter Wolf, the wild man of the league, walked seven men in the second inning, the Millers getting six runs on one hit in that round. Oral Hildebrand relieved Wolf and together the two rookies dished out fourteen bases on balls, the Millers winning on six hits to thirteen for the Tribe. Bud Keeps Going Bud Connolly, Tribe infielder, hit safely in both contests Wednesday and his record now shows him with one or more safeties in twenty-six consecutive games. Spencer Harris, recently returned to the Millers from the Athletics, poled two home runs in the Wednesday nightcap, and Nick Cullop walloped his twenty-first circuit hit of the season. For the Indians, Frazier and Burwell smacked out homers in the windup fray Wednesday. Jonnard and Ambrose hurled for the Corridenites in the nightcap. The double-header supplied the fans with plenty of conversation in view of the fact the Millers were outhifc in both conflicts. The twin bill drew a large crowd and the attendance was a surprise to club officials.
