The evil eye is trained upon the Senate. Washington, D.C., May 25. Ben 'Evil Eye' Finkle, ringside character, who, this said by those in the know, possesses a rather extraordinary power of putting 'the jinx' on fighters. Tales are told of terrified fight managers paying certain sums of money to have him take off his evil powers in order that the fight may be evenly matched. Now comes a bill before the Senate Interstate Commerce Subcommittee which will lift the present ban upon interstate shipment of fight films, and the evil eye is being trained upon Senators Charles W.
