Boxing Controversy
POSITION OF DOUBLE TITLE HOLDER
POINT SETTLED
New York.
The New York Boxing Com mission has settled the con- troversy which has raged since Barney Roas won the welter- weight title from Jimmy Me- Larmin, as to whether in future title fights the new champion | would have to place both light- weight and welterweight, crowns in jeopardy.
The Commission ruled that he need not rink both titles, which is good news indeed for the popular little Chiengoan. If Ross engages another lightweight and hoth men make the lightweight. Imalt for the match, Barney's welter- weight title will not change hands In the event that he loses the deci
■ion.
This doctaion is along the lines of the opinion expressed by the Into William Muidnon, the Grund Old Man of boxing, when he was Commissioner at the me of the Benny Leonard-Jack Brition hout.

GRADIDGE'S
STAN
THE LEADING SPECIALISTS IN SQUASH.
There are three essentials for the perfect squash racket;--
(1) Great strength of shaft to take hard knocks on the
wall, etc.
#21 The racket shaft must be light to give the correct
.balance.
13 The area of gut being so small there is only very little "give." therefore, it is necessary to get "LIFE" in the shaft to get the feel and correct timing.
GRADIDGE'S
WHIPPET
is the only Racket that embodies all these points. It has became the most popular Squash Racket and has amply justified Gradidge's confidence in stating that it is the world's best.
