BOXING LAWJSSEYERE TAX Extra Charge to State ii Liable to Cat Down Namber of Clabi. HARD TO MAKE THEM PAY NEW TORK, May H. "It will not be long altar tha new boxing bill becomea law that the number of club In New Tork taU will dwindle to a handful," aid Jimmy Johnaton, match-maker of the Garden Athletlo club and tha manager or tha St. Nlcholaa Athletlo club In an Interview today. "That clause In the Malona bill which call for a Us of 7tt per pent. Instead of the t per cent that now prevail, will sound the death knell of many club that ara at present doing bualnesa," be added. "The trouble with moat boxing1 pro moter la that they don't conduct boxing how in a bualneaaltk way," aald John ston. "Tha manner In which some match maker stare bout ' would neceaattat there being; UtA per cent to divide lntad Of 100 per eent "In tha making of a match, a pro moter should not give tha boxer more than GO per cent of tha receipt, except on rare oocaalona, and then only when he feel aura they'd attraot a record house. VVhat'a the ua of conducting show Juat for the aake of handing money over to tha fighter. Any person who want to run boxing show cucoeaafully ahouid employ noth ing; but bualnea method He ahouli be sura before he clinches a match that ha will make a profit. Outalda of the main bout there are numerous bill to pay. First, there Is the Stat tax, then the rent, lighting, referee, prellmlnartea, advertising- and olub employe. These expense will take anywhere from 25 to 40 per oent, so It will be een that if the boxer get SO per cent, there isn't much of a -ehano of big profit, unlea tb card la an unusual one. Tas Oat e ii "The reason I think that the 7H per eent tax wilt kill many of the club now running 1 because all the match-maker, or moat of them, will be obliged to pay out Juet a much for tha other expense now. It la tha hardest thing- in the world to convince tha. boxera, especially those from out of town, that the tax haa to coma out of the g roe receipt. Many of them have an Idea that the promoter take thla money for hlmeelf. "Under tha new order of thing a pro moter will bav to do all kind of econ omising in order to make any money for himself. But he can dq so It he sticks absolutely to business methoda. Hundreds of club failed with the ft per cent tax-and with a TH per cent tax Wow I "Thar isn't any reason why a pro moter oaa't make money on every ahow. Kiret. he must make matches between men of the aame weight. You can't match a K.3U0 boxor againat a t$0 boxer and expect to draw a f ood house. Tou must match men of the nun ability. That thia will prove profitable was dem onstrated by me In conducting ahow at Madlsou Square Garden thla season. There hasn't been a knockout In a main Mantm ic the beginning to turn their bout, which bespeak the cloaeneaa of all Well, they'll meet the aame fat If they try any auch tactic at any club I'm running." , But, In view of tha last statement, Jimmy seem to forget tha fact that he used to break hla way Into fight club hlmaolf. When he wa a kid be admit that he often sneaked through the eky llght of Madlaon Square Garden the club ha 1 now running; In order to a the big fights. Jimmy ray that in hta time he ha managed over 800 flrhtera.
