He attributed his defeat to lack of training opportunities both here and abroad. He had little prac- tice before he left and none after- wards.

He expects to leave tomorrow for Saranap Lake. New York, to skate in the United States nation- al meet which beglns on Thursday. He will go later to the internation- al meet at Lake Placid, N. Y.

Marks llnd a five-pound advant- age at 116% over Villa. who weighed 111. Villa chased Marks around the ring for 15 rounds with- out being able to drop his oppon- cnt for the count. The consensus of opinion. was that Marks was out- classed and there was no growling about the decision. _

Only in the 14th round did Marks show that he had anything. He managed to poke the little Filipino a terrific wallop square on the chin.

There was not a knockdown in the 15 rounds.

He admitted that be was surprlsedrwhen the vote showed 2 to 1 for George E. Brower, a Brooklyn lawyer; James F. Farley la the third member.

Brower began his reign by an- nouncing that the color line, if there is one, will be erased and that Harry Wills. the negro chal- lenger of Jack Dempsey. will be permitted to fight white men. He also will attempt the job that Mul- doon failed in compelling such champions as Joe Lynch, Mickey Walker and Pancho Villa to defend their titles against men of their own weight in decision bouts.
