Vi'hcn the supporters had
finished
Dr. George \V. Brown of the Bridge-

committee. that he headed a delega-

'posed to the passage of the bill and

lthe committee
.Bem'd began by saying that the

Against 15‘Round Bouts
Something had been said to the
cc mmittee about New York. Dr. Beard
pointed out. that. New York enacted a.
bill in 1911 and then repealed it in
11917. Later the doctor read to the

the ministers believed in encouraging
hwlthy sparring. They agleed with
the government as t_o its value But.

outs. The government allo33ed only
eight ounte gloves and still higher
“eight. “I h "I- the committee will

“It would be a disgrace to the Butte.

Four Were Killed
Others Who spoke against the bill
from Bridgeport were Rev. Andrew J.
Martin and: Rev. A. P. Bush-om. H.
H. Spooner closed 1the opposition He
said he came to ptptect his children.
He drew up the existing laws 15 years
ago Four persons had been killed in
the state. in knockouts and it was easy
to get the .measure'xghmugh. .
“I have .no ablectiqu to deal spar-
,nlng contests. Before I hurt my
shoulder] used to take turns with the
gloves was", and even now I would
put on theglpy es filth any of you here
but for this shouldeii." he saith ”Un-
der the existing law anybody could
stage a sparring matdch The1e was
not a. line in the la_'33 to prevent them
But this law wanted to legalize prize
fighting I inquired in the Hartford
stores the other day. Not one of them
had five ounce gloves. They said that
was prize fighting when I asked for
them. They all have eight. ounce
gloves and' heavier. The very fact
that live ounce gloves were desired
was enough to show the character of
«the bill. "
