The Jewish labor boxing club, The Star, today notified the Polish Boxing Association that the Polish Jewish amateur boxing champion Rotholz, as a member of the club, would not compete against German teams at Posen this coming Sunday in the boxing matches between fighters of the two countries to be held there.
Early in April the Polish Boxing Association chose Rotholz to represent Poland at the matches in Posen and to represent the country in matches in Czechoslovakia and the Olympic games in 1936.
