Mr. J. McGrsth (North Sydney).

His opponent, Syd. Brown, of Jamaica, was sent to one knee by a short heavy right, and remained there for the full count.

Brown was afterwards examined by the Stadium medical officer, who found that a blow on the left temple had affected Brown's Jaw, which was temporarily paralysed. Brown said that his Jaw had been slightly Injured during training with Ambrose Palmer for his engagement. During the brief period thst Stewart wsai In the ring he impressed the onlookers by his brilliancy. A calm boxer, lie awaited Brown's lends, and warded tlicm off with a splendid defence. His blows were short and well directed.

The deciding punch was a heavy right to the side of the head. The early work was at close quarters, then Stewart moved aside and coolly awaited Brown's attack. Stewart brushed his opponent's left lesds sslde with a quick movement of his right arm. He rinped a heavy right to Brown's ribs, then poxed straight lefts to the face. Towards the close of the round Stewart hooked a good left to Brown's Jaw.

and Brown lightly connected with a straight left. In the second round Stewart moved around evading Brown's attcck. then hooked a left to the Jaw. following with a rijtht Brown's head. Straight lefts connected upon Brown's unprotected face, then os a short heavy right connected Brown sank to his k'vrcs.

There was indication that Brrwn was awalt-tna his time to regain his feet, but he did respond, nnd the rcferix1, Mr. Joe Wallis, declared Stewart the winner. PRELIMINARY BOUTS. Ijcs Sloan (10-61 received the decision Bob Clarke (in-5) In the fifth round of a contest set down for cleht. rountls.

wChain Store" Methods OFFICIAL'S CRITICISM. The action of the New South Wales Rugby La ague In selling season tickets was roundly condemned by a vice-president, Mr. F. Ben-nlrur, st a committee meeting last nit ht. He thought that the league was conducting Its business on a "chain-store" principle) In cheapening the pries ol admission.

Prices (or seaaon tickets were 30 double ticket. 22, single ticket. 10 6 lady's ticket. The lesgue will receive a third of the proceeds and the clubs two-thirda. Mr.

Bennlng pointed out that season tickets should not be available for the New South Wales Queensland matches. He had studied the position, and found that a person purchasing a double ticket was paying to see a match. Single tickets worked out at 10 a match. jind ladies at 5 a match. This.

Mr. Bennlng maintained, was cheapening the game, and mu-1 have an adverse effect on followers. He did not think that the league should sell the tickets. Many enthusiasts could not visit the office between the hours of 9 s.m. and 5 p.m.

to secure the tickets, and only a certain type was able to secure these "boiled lollies'" Issued by the lesgue. On the other hand. Mr. F. Miller, of Can terbury-Bankstown, thought that the season tickets could be even cheaper.

He drew attention to the cheaper tickets issued in Melbourne, and the way in which the games drew attendances In that city. MOTOR SPORT. GRAND PRIX HANDICAPS. Handicaps lor inc two areul car raux the Australian Orand Prix, ot ISO inllea. and the Australian car road champlon.hlp.

HITTING AN OPPONENT'S BAG. The question whether a (toller incurs a pen ally lor nitting an opponents gou ong on lire ereen. in a stroke competition, wss the sub ject of a controversy yesterday among golfers in a city business nouse. ine aestinanon or a trophy depended on the verdict. On the question being referred to Mr.

O. H. Wines, of the New South Wales Golf Council, and a recognised authority on the rules of the tame, he announced that no penalty waa Incurred. He quoted Stroke Rule 9. which covers the situation thoroughly: "If a competitor a ball strike or be stopped by another player, or his elus, or his caddie it Is a rub of the green." The only penalty would be In match play, when the player would lraj t)w hnle It would appear that the rule as It stands could be gravely abused in a stroke competition, for a player could prevent another player's ball Irom reacning tne now wnen putting, or else assist him by placing the bag near the hole and preventing the ball from over-running the hole.

OLD-TIME CRICKETERS "MADE OF STERNER STUFF." "Old Player," in a letter to the Editor uf the? "Herald." writes: "There has been a regular chorus from our returning cricketers claim In 3 hat the programme ot matches in England was too long, IS players Inadequate, and the tour generally too strenuous. The number or casualties occurring In international touring teams of recent years has been disturbing, and suggests that the stamina of our representative cricketers ts a diminishing quantity. Going back 50 years, we find that there were 13 men in the Australian team, and that they played 40 matches, whereas in 1934 the team com prised 16 players who contested 34 matches To make one Individual comparison.

and the Derby Day. May 30. every week dav for 30 consecutive weeks was allotted for play." The team, by bringing about many short games, greatly increased the period of rest, and enabled the players to go through with thetr programme with few tedious night journeys; but, although 14 matches were finished In two days and 10 days were lost because of rain, there were tm 94 hard days' play. v1 -dfl sSrSSSSra I BOXING jCONTRjOL Commission System. CASE FOR ESTABLISHMENT.

MR. W. J. McKELL, M.t.A.i ADVOCACY. Mr.

J. McJCell. la m' sUtmerU the "Herald" ywterdtjr In support ol the establishment of boxlnt torn. mission in New Sooth Wales, said: "Boxinr is on of the tew snorts in New South Wales that has not some authority in control. Every boxing execpt Australia, has appointed a board or a commission, ajid it is interesting to note that once a.

controlling authority has been established) the principle has never been departed from." "Any person in New South Walea." said Mr. alcKcll. "can set himself up as a promo ter, mtnacer. trainer, or second. No licence whatever necessary.

Filnging-in brings no disqualification or penalty. Relereea are appointed by promoters, and may be dispensed with at will. Promising youths are overmatched, and men declared to be medically unfit are taking part In contests. These facts, added lo the physical and mental destruction of a number of young men, punch drunk thioush taking part In contests that should never have been permitted, cry out for the setting up of some controlling and rejrulating aumoniy. CONTROL IN UNITED STATES.

Mr. McKell referred again to the article in tne "Heraia" on September 13 by Mr Eddie Borden, manager of the American boxer Gua Lesnevich. and Quoted DarasraDha which. he said, justified the view that the article was directed at tne prevention of the establishment of a boxing commission in New South Wales. "Mr.

Borden." said Mr. McKell. "Is apparently so hostile to the personnel of cer tain of the commissions that he overlooks entirety the good that has been done by these authorities in the United States. Any person acquainted with the history ot boxing in America knows mat oeiorc commission control wa introduced, boxing was in a deplorable state. Certain of the States.

Including Dlinols. would not permit boxing matches to be held at all. Others would only permit 'no decision' contests. In the words of a prominent American authority: 'Promoters settled up with managers, only If beaten In tne loot race trial got under way immeoiaieiy after the main In a recent letter. Mr.

Nat Fleischer, editor of "The stated thai the legalisation of boxing by 39 States of the union had saved the sport In America, and that Australia, like the United States, could derive considerable benefit by putting rulings over oy a legalised commission. PERSONNEL OF COMMISSION. "It la true, as Mr. Borden states, that ibe United States of America derivea millions of dollars of revenue from boxing. This baa been made possible by the sport being placed on a decent basis by the respective Legisla tures, in this state me revenue receivea fiom such source Is negligible.

Even though the personnel of certain af the commissions in America may not be what It should be, I fail see why this fact should be put for ward as a reason wny a commission snouia not be established In New South Wales. If the nrinclDle of a commission is approved, surely the authority that Is entrusted with the appointment ol our juagea ana tne memoera of the Public service can be trusted to place on the commission men of the right type. "Mv view. cxDressed on a deputation to the former Chief Secretary. Mr.

Charley, is that the appointees should be well-known men with administrative ability, of high character and reputation. A knowledge of boxing it essential, but any person financially Interested in the sport should be Ineligible for appointment. The names of a number of well-known citizens who sre regular visitors in hnvina contAsta immediately suggest mem- selves. A commission composed of men of this type would be preferable to the commission of boxer-managers as suggested by Mr. Borden, some of whom.

In the words of the American authority referred to above, 'are no more qualified to be boxing commissioners than thev are to nalnt pictures for the THE LATE MR. W. LAWLESS. Mr rVnelev writes. In the Dasslns of Mr IJtwlrfU bOXint has lost OfM Of the greatest stalwarts for Its betterment and elevation.

Personally known to myself for half a century, he always aavocaiea my suggestion of a boxing commission, and boxers' provident association. I trust the commission now In evidence will eventuate. My last conversation with Mr. Lawless was regarding the Introduction of the "no foul rule, and he. Uke myself, did not favour it.

Mr. Uiwlcas was an aroeni wra name, and nis rreas columns his skill. Old-time boxers now with us, Jim Barrow, Mick Dunn, Cheddy Ryan, Jack Puller. Martin Denny, and Dan Creedon, wui vouch for his Integrity. Boxing has lost one ot Its greatest pillars.

BY J.

FBRnlER. Australian Open and Amateur Champion. I played recently In a four-ball with three middle-markers as partner. They had various methods ol play, yet their handicaps were only separated by one atioke. Like many aterage snllera.

they were all strlvlnt to produce their best, and consequently pressint tlielr shots. I wan thus able to notice a lault two ol them. I directed these plavers' at tention 10 11 aunns tnf round, and lis correction made a ureal difference to ihelr plav In hlttinc firmly at the ball tliey were in the habit ol "81111118 back'' on the shot. In other words, they were Iraiuferrinii their welsht on the right fool on the baik-swlna and leaving it thre for the remainder of Hie stroke By striklnc the ball while their weight was on the lieht loot, timing and smoothness were lacking In the shot. When the clilbhead made contact wllh the ball, it was on the lowing, and not travelling In a straight line to the hole.

From the tees, when the ball is leed up. this lault is not so bad as when It aflecta shots Irom the fairway, when a greater degree of accurate hitting I. needed. Some time ago tins error ciept Into my own play. Beginning in a small way.

It soon obtains a grip of the swing and unless it is dealt with forcefully and eradicated it can easily ruin a good style. In my own experience I lound that it began from trying to help the club to hit the ball into the air Instead of allowing it to be done with the lolt ol the club. Thus, by allowing the lorearms to come Into Ihi stroke, the fault soon began. In practising to eliminate the error 1 found that concentration on keeping the head stationary and thus stopping the shoulders from uny swaying movement was helplul. When striking the ball a leeling of hitting down and well through will restore the confldence need ed lor correct shot-making.

A. u. (BOboy) IjOCKe. tne soutn Airican proteasional. has this feature strongly rooted In his stvle.

Coming down to the ball, Locke strikes a sharp downward blow with all iron clubs, but stops quickly with a short follow through that is entirely his own. By endeavouring to hit the ball on similar lines, and keeping In mind the fact that the ball must be struck a downward blow lo be forced Into the aid. players would find that their shntg would be greatly improved. In discussions with many players 1 have found that there is a definite dislike to attempting to strike down on to the ball. Most players admit that they are dubious about the ultimate result ol the stroke from such a swing.

Many, In attempting 10 nit aown on the ball, make their bands cut across the line of flight, resulting In a slice or push out. wnen practising 10 aeviuw iiiuie wu-! ati'in hiiw nnHcerl a tendency to force or hit from the top of the swing. This spoils the shot, for one Is apt to rush the shot in an endeavour to crush the ball away speedily. like all other snots, it must oe taaen wiin and gradually incorporated in the play-era awing. It la mora difficult to acquire than It nrst seems.
