  * § 26. Physician to be in attendance; powers of such physician. 1. It
shall be the duty of every person or corporation licensed to conduct a
boxing or sparring match or exhibition, to have in attendance at every
boxing or sparring match or exhibition, at least one physician
designated by the commission as the rules shall provide. The commission
may establish a schedule of fees to be paid by the licensee to cover the
cost of such attendance. Such fees shall be paid to the commission,
which shall then pay such fees to the physicians entitled thereto, in
accordance with the rules of the commission.

2. The physician shall terminate any boxing or sparring match or
exhibition if in the opinion of such physician any contestant has
received severe punishment or is in danger of serious physical injury.
In the event of any serious physical injury, such physician shall
immediately render any emergency treatment necessary, recommend further
treatment or hospitalization if required, and fully report the entire
matter to the commission within twenty-four hours and if necessary,
subsequently thereafter. Such physician may also require that the
injured boxer and his manager remain in the ring or on the premises or
report to a hospital after the contest for such period of time as such
physician deems advisable.

3. Such physician may enter the ring at any time during a boxing or
sparring match or exhibition and may terminate the match if in his
opinion the same is necessary to prevent severe punishment or serious
physical injury to a contestant.
