Sydney Hull Resigns Manager's Post

TO RESUME PROMOTING ON HIS OWN

(By "LEIGHTON")

London, July 3 Mr. Sydney Halls, boring man-} ager for Wembley Stadium, yester-j day resigned his appointment. The news will surprise everybody connected with the fight game, for Mr. Halls's association with Wem- bley, which began two years ago. has been one of unbroken success. Big fights arranged by him drew huge crowds and in many cases record takings.

The Petersen-Neusel open-air battle, for example produced re- ceipts of 118,000, though the gate was spoiled through heavy rain.

The last Harvey-Petersen: con- test in Wembley's indoor arena drew $16,000.

One Of The Youngest

These and other successes estab- lished Mr. Hulls as one of the shrewdest and cleverest fight pro- moters in the game, though one of the youngest.

Pardon the Stretch! "Lomandre" soured lightly over the first five hurdles at Aqueduct, L. I, but balked at the sizik. That's Jockey Morris going over the top.

A FRIENDLY GESTURE-

(By HOWARD MARSHALL) London, June 24. The M.C.C., through their secre tary, Mr. W. Findlay, yesterday announced that they had accepted the eight-ball over in all matches for the forthcoming tour in Ans- tralia. The decision is interesting and significant.

It strikes us as a quid pro quo,

a gesture of friendliness-the Ans- tralians will have their eight-ball jover, we shall have our experiment- al lbw. law, and everyone, ist us hope, will be happy

Clearly the MCC authorities regand this return to the eight- ball over as an experiment worth trying, but no more than that, for they will only accept it without prejudice to its application in fù-- ture tours.
