But that's not the worst of it, There are in effect three referees --a referee and two judges. The decision is reached by majority vete. Nobody knows who voted one way or the other. That is never announced, No- body is directly and solely responsible. "There ought not to be any judges in a prize-fight. The whole responsi- bility ought to be on the shoulders of the referee. Then everybody would knew that he was responsible for what was done and public opinion would hold him accountable for it. When there are three and nobody knows ham they voted, anything, good or bad, just goes without being questioned vary much „ "The men who control boxing do meet on international account by at - everything they can to cultivate the slugger and to stop the clever men,' tracting foreign balances to London "A ring should aro twenty on an increased scale, i.e., by borrow - four feat square," Corbett believes: ing sham a great part of what we "That gives a chance to the man who have been lending Ions.

That's due to the system which is encour- aged." "The decision goes to the aggres- sor," Jim Corbett comments. That is a very bad thing. The decision should be given on points, on style, on gen- eralship. If a man is being rushed hut can't he hit, he deserves credit for, not being hit.

There was a time when i.he word "science" had a larger and more humane meaning than It has today.

"SPECIAL OFFERS" This was done by means of "special offers" from a Mr. George Westcott, who, writing from 48 Dover street, W., styled himself managing director of the company, from a firm called P. H. Stiles & Co., who gave an address at 17 George street, N. W. 1, from the Gotham Finance Co., 03 Wall street, New York, and from the Westminster Bond and Trust Co., London wall, E. C. 2, So far efforts have failed to trace either Mr. Westcott, J. 1•I, Stiles and Co., or the Westminster Bond and Trust Co., but a letter from Mr. West- cott to the shareholders indicates the nature of the Gotham. Finance Co. He wrote: The Gotham Finance Co.... has disclosed . itself as utterly .unreliable there is absolutely no doubt they had no intention of paying for the shares bought from shareholders. . They now brazenly repudiate their contract with mo as well as the West- minster Bond and Trust Co., and have also refused to pay over to the Com- pany any of the monies received from the British shareholders. A SECOND BAIT. Another letter from Mr, Westcott throws some light on his own char- acter. Writing from c/o the Empire Service Bureau, 37 Albemarle street, 'W. 1, to the North London woman who reported to hint that a Mr. Law- son had called upon her with the ob- ject of persuading her to buy more shares—at 4s. each in the company which was Sure to pay a dividend in six months' time, he suggests what criminals call a "double crossing" of his own sharepusher. Be wrote: 1 understand Mr. Lawson intended calling on you again and if you prefer to deal with me and obtain a reduc- tion in the price of any shares you desire to take up I would suggest it might be best to decline his offer as possibly otherwise he would claim a commission on any shares you might purchase. I shall leave this to your own dis- cretion. In any event I would suggest you do not disclose to him that I have suggested a lower price to you, Needless to say a company, the, managing director of which conducts its affairs in such a curious manner es this%as never paid a dividend, and now Mr. Stanley Hymens is asking the shareholders for 3din respect f every share they hold to pay his ex- penses to Alberta, so that he may in "restigate the history of the concern. Mr, Hymens is a director of the Mer- rick Trust, which has its office in Marley street. Mr. Ilymans has denied all connec- tion with the New brakeman Com- pany, and protested that he had only met Mr. Westcott once. "I have beers asked by a few friends of mine who are shareholders to go put and that is how I have been brought into the natter," he said. WORTHLESS LEASES. Mr. Hymens also admitted that he was "afraid the leases held by the New Nakaman Company .have lapsed from what I can learn. 0f course I have my own opinion with regard to Mr. Wescott and his doings, but I do 'not popase to express it.

Where a star can go from tee to green in two strokes, there are hull. drods of players who cannot do it in less than five or six, or even more.
