			okay, I'll ask John for the info. I'd be glad to input any info I find. In fact, tomorrow, I'm going to the Brooklyn Public Library to look up some info in the Brooklyn Eagle microfilm on my grandfather and Great Uncle who were boxers. If I find any other useful info I'll post it on the forum.

	Ric, I did always notice since I joined that when I call up a boxers record that there are little notes sometimes about a fight, who the ref was, time of the round and maybe a blurb from a newspaper. I think many of my notes could be inserted there but I guess unless you're an editor they have to be put under the blue book icon. If I become a volunteer would I be able to access that and make notations that way?

	Ric, I'm not up too much on the current boxing scene, my interest lies in the 1920'-1930's. My background is more in line with information from newspapers and programs. I'd do it, but what does it entail? Gregg - P.S. I just sent John an article showing a bout that took place in 1922 between Babe Hernam, alias Hreman J. Sousa, and Jack Hausner that was ruled a DQ by the ref because the boxers didn't try enough. I think it should be included in their records and I beleive John agrees...that's the stuff I like to find.
