BT DICK SHARP. The year 1920 should be the great est year in clean professional boxing that Oregon fans have ever witnessed. Before many more weeks bouts will be a regular occurrence in nearly 20 cities throughout the state. Each week finds new commissions spring ing Into existence and the game given impetus. The latest city to make its debut with a municipal boxing commission is Astoria. The initial card of this thriving city's commission was staged Friday night with Oscar Koch meet ing Joe Bonds in the main event of ten rounds. Koch won the decision and the credit of being one of the best appearing heavyweight prospects that has been developed'in the northwest in many years. Koch Is Fighter. Koch is a protege of Chet Mclntyre, who. is confident that Oscar within the next two years will be ranked with the leading heavyweights of the world, and many others who have seen the big Astorian under fire share that opinion with Mclntyre. The for mer Seattle Athletic club instructor should be able to pick a heavyweight if anyone can, and one can rest as sured that if a boxer does not show the goods Mclntyre will not waste any time with him. Koch, whose folks own a ranch out of Astoria, ' enlisted in the army at the outbreak of the war and was sent to Camp Lewis. He engaged in his first boxing there and toppled every thing that was sent in against him. When he received his honorable dis charge Koch returned to Astoria and joined the police force and engaged in a few more battles, but not in the ring, all ending via the knockout route. Mclntyre having been "crossed" by Ole Anderson, who slipped away in the night to go to San Francisco and take a beating from Harry Willis, sent to Astoria for Koch ami brought him to Tacoma. Koch knocked out a "man mountain" in a couple of rounds and in his second appearance under Mclntyre's guidance was matched with Willie Keeler in Tacoma. Keeler had been knocking them all dead, but Koch knocked him down three or four times and nearly put him out. Koch's Future Bright. Koch's third battle under his in structor and manager was last Friday night against Bonds, one of the most experienced men in the game. Joe hag been boxing for years, and has. fought every heavyweight of promise that has crossed the fistic horizon, includ ing three bouts against Jack Demp sey. Mclntyre is training Koch for all of his fights as well as looking after his business. Koch is really a likely appearing contender. He stands 6 feet 2, weighs about 220 pounds at the present time and is 22 years old and married. He has a fighting heart, which is essen tial for success, and has confidence. He is as shifty on his feet as a light weight and hits with both hands. Koch will meet Young Hector in the main event of Clay Hite's card in Seattle next Friday night, and when he disposes of Hector would like to battle in Portland or Milwaukie. The rest of last Friday night's card in Astoria was a "bear." Al Byers, former amateur featherweight cham pion of the northwest, battled six rounds to a draw against Billy Nelson in the semi-windup. Byers fought like a real boxer and on the strength of his showing with Nelson is entitled to consideration for matches here against some opponents of high class. Byers fought like a new man and many Portland fans were treated to an agreeable surprise oy his great work. Nelson outweighed Al 12 to 15 pounds, but was not in the best of shape, so that about evens the score. Macke-Stengel Honors Even. 1 Battling Macke and Bud Stengel traveled six fast rounds to a draw, mixing hammer and tongs the entire distance. Macke started off like a whirlwind, forcing Stengel all over the ring to the fifth canto, when Bud began to come to the fore with some hard smashes. Stengel finished strong in the sixth, with Macke staggering. Mike De Pinto and Harry Davis fought a four-round draw in the cur tain raiser. De Pinto hit Davis plenty, but the newsboy champion took them all and earned a draw. Ed Shockley and Nace Grant refereed the bouts. Great credit must be given the As toria commission for the caliber of its first card and the businesslike' han dling of the programme. There were no hitches or waits between matches and everything was up to snuff. The commission appointed by Mayor Brem ner consists of 'Chief of Police Carl son, Sherman Lovell, Barney Sovey, Charles Halderman and Dr. Arthur Van Dusen, all well-known Astoria business or professional men. who have the interest of clean sport at heart. Dick Grant, one of Oregon's best known athfetes, who scintillated as a track athlete at Stanford university and in his high school days and later with Multnomah club, worked with the commission and Owen Merrick in putting over the first card. The fact that a man of Grant's caliber and standing in athletics could see fit to help put the game over in the right way speaks well for the future of boxing in Astoria. The commission ers have asked him to arrange the cards for the future, and if he can find time aside from his business will help put over some real boxing for the Astoria fans. He will be assisted in the work by Owen Merrick and the commission. certain funds alleged to be the prop erty of the league. The complaint asserts that for many years the privilege of disseminating baseball scores and news has been let through the Western Union Telegraph company to various news agencies and that the contract with the West ern Union was made by Johnson in his capacity as president of the American league. It is charged that all the proceed! from this contract should have gone into a sinking fund of the league. but whether or not they have the complainants are unable to say.
