Boxing mav be leealized in Ne
braska before many months roll
around. . The sport is legalized in
Wisconsin, New York. Minnesota
and other states. The chances of
the American Legion bill regulating
tne sport under control ot an ath
letic commission becominar a law in
Cornhusker land are bright.
Last Monday the house commit
tee on miscellaneous subjects voted
five against the bill to four in favor
of the mtasure. Two members of
the legislature who are said to be
in favor of the passage of the bill
did not vote. Had they voted the
bill would have passed.
ednesday the lower legislative
house revived thp measure hv a vote
df 78 to 15 in favor of passage.
1 he chances ot the bill becoming
law in Nebraska are bright, as
stated. But, there is one. promoter
in Omaha who is trying every way
possible to smother the fire. Ac
cording to reports, this promoter is
in Lincoln working like a Trojan to
kill the bill' designed by former
soldiers.
Be it said, that while this pro
moter, who is in business in Omaha,
remained at home durinjy the war,
these men who are trying to pass a
bill whereby clean wrestling and
boxing contests can be staged in
Nebraska, were protecting his in
terests in this country.
Just because the bill does not Rive
the promoter the right to stag
wrestling and boxing bouts, this
particular person is working to get
the American Legion bill sidetracked
for the remainder of the session.
The American Legion boxing bill,
if it becomes a law in this state, will
not permit bouts, either wrestling or
boxing, to be held where any hdi
vidaal or person reaps a profit. The
bill is designed to allow Clubs that
have been in operation one year or
more to hold athletic entertainments.
Section 3 , oi. the. Legion bill,
follows:
No Urease or permit shall be leaned
to a private individual or person, nor
shell any wrestling-, boxing or sparring
match or exhibition be held for the profit
or financial gain of any private Indi
vidual or person and no part of the re
ceipts of any match or exhibition shall
be paid to any person or persons except
the actual contenders, and to such of
ficials and assistants as the rules . and
regulations of the department provide.
"Kvery licensee conducting or holding
any wrestling or boxing match shall with
in 72 hours after n tbe conclu
sion furnish to the department a, writ
ten report showing the articles of agree
ment between the contestants; the num
ber of tickets sold for each contest, the
smvount of the gross proceeds thereof, and
such other matters as the department
shall prescribe; and shall also within
said time, pay to the said department s
tax of 19 per eeat of the total gross re-
Jackson May Have to
Pay Income Tax on His
"Gift" From Gamblers
Greenville, S. C, Feb. 14. Joe
Jackson, former Chicago White Sox
outfielder, may have to pay upwards
of $1,200 income taxand penalty on
the $5,000 he is said to have received'
during the world series of 1919, ac
cording to a statement today by At
torney James H. Price, who has
been retained as counsel by 7ack-'
son, Efforts were started by Treas
ury department officials to tolled iu
come tax on the $5,000 shortly after
Jackson was alleged to have made
his confession, Mr. Price, said.
Jackson claims the money was re
ceived as a gift. .
It is expected a decision will be
given soon by treasury officials.

confessions of crooked base ball
playing were filed in the criminal
court here today on behalf of Claude
, Wiiliam and Joe Jackson, Chicago
American league players who were
indicted on charges of conspiracy
to throw the 1919 world's series. -
The petition filed today on be
half of Williams, Jackson and
George (Buck) Weaver, a team
mate, declares that none of the
three ever made admissions charged
against the first two and deny that
they ever threw ball games or con
spired to do so. Weaver did not
appear, before the grand jury and
has from the first denied taking
part in the alleged conspiracy.
The document asked that the state
furnish thcjndicted men wifh a bill
of particulars and it brought out that
the men are formally charged in the
indictment with having unlawfully
obtained $250 from Charles K. Nims.
The petition recites that Nims is un
known to the players. 1
Nims, it is said, is a ' sportsman
who lost $250 by betting on the Chi
cago team against the Cincinnati Na
tionals in the 1919 world's series.

Chicago, Feb. 14. The first move
in the defense of the White Sox
players indicted for alleged conspir
acy'in the world's scries against the
Kcds in jyly, was made Sunday,
Thomas t. Nash, attorney for four
of the indicted diamond stars, served
notice on State's Attorney Crowe
that he (Xash) would appear before
Judge William Devcr Monday or
1 ucsday, and petition the state to fur
nish the .defense a bill of particulars.
Another indication of defense plan
ned for the players came in the form
of affadavitsvbv Joe Jackson and
Claude Williams, two of the three
players alleged to have confessed
before the erand mrv. These al'
fadavits accompanied the notice of
petition by ASorney Nash, and were
taken to mean that the two players
will repudiate their previous tcsti
mony. It is said that Cicotte will
act in a similar manner.
Attorney- Benedict Short, who has
been retained to defend Williams and
Jackson, said that his position in the
case would depend entirely upon the
bill of particulars furnished by the
state. Short admitted therewas a
possibility of his clients not taking
the witness stand.

NE feature of Gink Fowler's
career was that he was always
thinking. He was always
busy digging mental tunnels like a
mole. Often he would take off 10
seconds during a tough scuffle and
spend the time on the Persian rug
figuring ways and means. It was
during the fight with the man with
the poisoned gloves that Gink set
the world's record for using the old
thought vat.
Old Poison was donating Gink a
fat thumping. The air was full of
twin fives. Gink left th. ring dur
ing the fifth and sixth rounds, bor
rowed a nickel and gave Poison an
awful bawlhlg out over the tele
phone. He got back in 'time to start the
sixth and Poison took. up the thread
of the Queensbury narative at the
point where he had been interrupted
by the phone call. But the audience
could see that there was something
on Poison's mind besides larceny.
He was worried. Gink fought his
usual modest fight, keeping his face
hidden as much in a background of
gloves as possible.
IS Straight Right.
Gink was unusually shy and re
tiring. Whenever he had a cham
pionship fight on he would seek to
prevent publicity by riding up to ths
arena on a camel. He trained in
out-of-the-way places like Fifth
avenue at high noon. And he al
ways wore a red and green sweater
so that he would blend with the
scenery.
In the eighteenth round Poison
slapped Gink with eighteen straight
rights. It was one punch for each
round like candles on a birthday
cake. Gink figured that there
would be a spell of unsettled weather
for him about the seven tv-srventh
round and took ten seconds off with
out pay to think it over. He never
wasted his time on the canvas ind
instructed his seconds to always have
the floor lined with good books.
His favorite books were "Alice in
Wonderland." "Who's Who?" and
"Swat's Swat." But this time he had
the book entitled, ' What to Do Until
the Doctor Arrives." He found that
his opponent has his gloves pois
oned with alcohol. During each
round, Poison would dip his gaunt
lets into a bucket and then proceed
to set tip the drinks for Gink. ,
On the eleventh page of his new
book, Gink discovered the antidote
for alcohot poisoning. After that
swat on the nose. Gink would stop
the fight and naire a bromo seltzer.
Poison then switched his methods
and installed a malaria germ in each
glove. Ginkgot the chills and fever
in the fortieth round, looked into
the book, and called for quinine.
.Battle of Wits.
Poison then started usinc salt
water on his mittens 'and had Gink
seasick in the fiftieth. Gink cured
this malady in .the usual way and
came back stronger than the land
lord's second demand for the rent.
As an extra inducement Poison
dipped his hands in vanilla extract.
not knowing that Gink's favorite
sott drink was glucose. It was a
t ,i, nnMvaMh rnnH t,
via ,..;,t, i, p;crt.i ,i.
featcd i,jmself. He dipped one
glove m morphine and the other in
a pot of black coffee. He didn't,
knows that these were counter
irritants. The morphine would out
Gink to sleep, but the black coffee
would wake him up. That decided
the battle. They slugged away for
three hundred rounds until the Man
with the Poisoned Gloves dropped
from exhaustion.
That battle will, clatter down in
history so long as there is a poet
left to sing the Saga of the Mighty
and an audience left in Matteawan
to listen.
