Hlinois take the Badger enviable position this year 1 Certain eastern states have had greater success even than Hlinois the promoters have come to me on various occasions but every time they'- have been told that tke show must be pulled off within the provisions of the law It is just possible that there has been a violation of the law but certainly there had not been any serious objections tothe sport until last Mon- day night xhe trouble was that the Chicago promoters played the game too strong The overcrowding of the hall and the pickpockets at work was the real' objection to the show on last Monday night I simply want the people of the city to understand that the county officials no more than the city officials have given permits for the fights If they-have continued with any sanction it has been with the silent sanction of both Of course there will be no mofe fight shows during my administration and were I to serve for another term right now I would give the people an

stop the little boxing show given by the members of the National Athletic Club at Columbia Hall on Friday evening Four bouts were staged The windup was an eight round go between Joe Hiller and Youn'g
