Of course there are no laws in Utah prohibiting dog fighting or cook fighting, but the practice has been prohibited In sporadic cases under the "Cruelty to Ani mals" statutes. And rightly so. " No one with, a spark of compassion com-passion in his soul could condone a contest where vicious dogs are pitted against each other ,in a bloody, bone-crunching combat. Under the rules of pit fighting, the battle of claw and fang continues con-tinues until one of the combatants combat-ants 4s unable to continue, due to injury or death.-That's the -purpose of the fight and wagers are placed accordingly. i ' Much as we abhor such revolting revolt-ing spectacles, we condone, embrace em-brace and support other types of "sports" that are fully as inhuman. inhu-man.

Not only are professional boxers box-ers beaten into temporary Insensibility Insen-sibility but their minds are often deranged for life. In fax too many cases they are killed, outright. It Is the hope of this column that the Weber dog fighters will be punished so severely, that the so called "sport" will be stamped stamp-ed out for all time in the state of Utah. T6 do less than this would be a shameful miscarriage' of Justice. Likewise we maintain that the time is ripe for a long and serious ser-ious look at professional boxing, . as conducted as of today. If boxing, as its proponents maintain, is an exhibition of physical phys-ical speed, strength and agility, then the issue should be decided along those lines. . Some state legislatures currently current-ly in session, are considering abolishing abol-ishing the sport within their borders bor-ders until methods are found and rules changed to protect the box-era. box-era. Why not equip the fighters with safety helmets and decide the contest upon clean Slows .struck Instead of cuts opened, blood drawn or knockouts scored?
