New York, Mar. 18, An important ruling was made today by the New. York State iAthletie Commission when it decided that in fature any boxer committing a foul would be suspended from further boxing for a period of two months, and would receive pay only for the completed rounds in the fight which the foul was committed.
The commission will suspend any boxer who fights s suspended man outside the state.
This action has been demanded by sports writers and fight enthusiasts in view of the large number of apparent "hippodromes" of late, in which so-called fighters disappointed large crowds by either careless or intentional fouls which stopped fights far short of their normal limits, gave an unsatisfactory ending, and there was no penalty for the offending boxers.—United Press.
