WOUNDED HEROES ASK PASSAGE OF BILL FOR BOXING
Two Thousand Fort Sheridan, 111., Hospital Patients Petition Legislators. CHICAff C I1L. May 2. Out at Forc Sheridan base hospital No. 28, there are eomedlng like 2,000 American soldiers, eTery one of whom played a big part In the world war. They carry . evidence, plenty of evidence. There Is one with a broken neck, some legless, others armless. There are men recovering from other injuries, which Included shell shock and gas. These Soldiers lust learned at a.
statement mado in the public bearing' at Springfield that "the returning: American soldiers do not want boxing." So Physical Director Alfred
Ketchel, who himself is a strong advocate of the glove sport, took a poll of the various wards. Only One 8oldler Opposed The result of the poll leaves oo doubt as to how these 2,000 soldiers fevl toward boxing. There was just one soldier who did not favor it. All the others expressed themselves so strongly in favor of the passage of a boxing bill that-the truth of the statement that returning soldiers do not want boxing was shot to pieces. Of course, all these injured boys at the fort are not from Illinois. Some come from other states, but every Illinois boy in the base hospital is going to "do his bit" toward making boxlog a recognized Institution in Illinois. It was decided they would get up a petition to be sent representatives or senators of their various districts asking these state lawmakers to support the effort to pass a boxing bilL Nurses Favor Boys' Wishes But that wasn't all. There are several hundred nurses at the . hospital. The nurses displayed such enthusiasm that a. separate poll was taken. Nearly every one voted in (avor of boxing. One smiled after ecribbllng her name in favor of the sport. "I don't know much about boxing, but if these boys here want boxing you can believe me I'll go right along with them," she said. The soldier who for nearly one year has been lying on his back, his broken neck in a brace, smiled when he balloted with the others who want boxing. He has been smiling ever since he has been in the hospital He may never see a boxing contest, although it is believed he may recover sufficiently to do so, bat he knows what boxing is and he wants it.
