Most folks will remember that Battalino failed to even try to fight against Treddio Miller in their featherweight championship bout and that Referee Lou Bauman stopped the farce, in the third round and called it no contest, Yesterday the i i a i IJoxiirj! commission' posted a a $5,000 fine on the person of the a and a in Iho samo breath that bo was also suspended indefinitely. And immediately tho question arises! What kind of a check will Battalino present to cover the fine when his $1,000 forfeit check was said to be a That's rather deep, of course, but then tights and fighters were always deep, especially when they leinpt a dive. Incidentally, the first person of consequence to show up in Bat's come 1 yesterday whilo the Cincinnati commission -was deliberating its action was none else than the famous Mr.

Pete Rcllly, one-time manager of Battalino. Iteilly is said to a guaranteed payment of. tho Battler's $5,000 fine, in order to i the suspension so that a a i miny ahead with fighls scheduled with Ear! Masfro and Billy Petrolic. Whilo Battalino was taking tho rap the Cincy colnish gavo Freddie Miller a clean bill of health. The commissioii denied Freddie's claim to the title but did allow him expense money.

Tho Battaliti'o-Millcr scrap was ono of Iliose things and if. any Hamilton fight fans were taken in by tho shenanigans which Eiir- voundctl the championship its just too bad. Oh well, maybe, the fans will forget about it in six or seven years. Levinsky, Baer Battle Tonight In Garden Bout "New York, Jan. 29.
