National Boxing Governing Body Planned in New York
National delegates from sixteen states will meet in New York at the International Sporting club to form a national boxing authority. The three day conference aims to standardize rules, bar delinquent fighters in all states, regulate purses, and push a single international code for the sport. Tex O Rourke will serve as secretary and a nationally known figure may be chosen president. The body will absorb existing army, navy, and civilian boxing control and coordinate with other nations' boxing bodies.
