There ha been eonald' uahle talk about hitting In tha clinch and in tha breakaway. A study of tha contract that the prlnctpela aigned with promoter Rlckard enow clearly, however, that the bout ia to be conducted, under the rulea and regulation of . the New York State Atlilatlo commlaalon. t sdea Are Dlfferemt. This cod differ widely from the Mar quia of Uueenaberry rulea, which are the atandard of both boxing and prise fight ing the world around. The Queenanerry rulea do not restrain a boxer from punch ing an opponent at any time during a clinch, and it la understood that the principal muat protect themselves at all times, both in the clinches and in the breakaway. The rulee of the New York State Ath letic commlaxlon on the other hand, dis tinctly provide that there ahall be no hitting In the breaka. The regulations covering these points are a follow: "The kidney punch or blow ahall be forbidden in all conteata, Tha backhand punch or blow la alao forbidden, Ttfe conteatant ahall break clean and ahall not atrlka a blow while breaking from cllnchea. Conteatant must not hold and hit. Butting with the head or ahouldera, reading or clinching or Illegal iiae of elbova ahall not be allowed. There ahall be n unsportsmanlike conduct on the part of the conteatant. Thla shall In elude the uae of abualve or inaulting language- Halea Mast Be Observed. Tha cojnmlaalon ha announced that tikes rules must be strictly observed and that the referee, Charley White, will be Instructed to see that tney are obeyed White haa not aa yet conferred with either of the principals and ia not likely to see thorn until he entera the ring to officiate. There ia considerable differ ence of opinion aa to which of the tw heavyweight lll be the more handi capped by the obeervan a of these rules. Each ran hit hard and quickly If given an opening, either In a clinch or on the breakaway. Another edict that haa caused a flurry lu the camp of the promoter, la the one promulgated by the commlaalon that there tnuat be at lea at three four-round, on alx-round and on ten-round preliminary bouts put on before the big fellow en ter the ring. It was stated here tonight that if thla order waa complied with U la likely that tha first of the prellmln ariea lil be put on a early a ; p. m. Thla will clear the way for tha eemr final between Battling Ivinaky and Jim (Savage at l:3, and Wlllard and Mora will enter the ring on hour later.
