edition
Johnny Is the heavy favorite JURt now,
but the odds aro likely to'nlilft before tho
bout begins. Hlnco winning the champion
ship from Abe Attell In 1912 he has been
knocking them off light 'and left, meeting
all comers In his clnsi. Ills only hard battto
(as a champion was with Johnny Dundee,
In Ias Angeles, op April 29, 1311, which
resulted In it draw. It has been claimed
that KIbario picked the softest Marks as
his opponents, but whoro was thero a good
featherweight outside of Chaney uvlin could
'Klv'e him a good battle?
Charley Mnkcs Good
About two ycais ago Chaney suddenly
Jumncd Into prominence when ho knocked
out scvral aspiring featherweights, nnd
a match with Kllbano was suggested by
many o( the eastern boxing critics. Aftei
the usual exchange of challenges and many
columns of dopo In the newspapers, n bom
was arranged for llaltlmoio on March 11
of, this year. This fell through because ot
the alleged standing of tho club In which
the match was to be held, and Chaney
then claimed tho title. His claims wcro
rot considered seriously, however, so an
other bid was made for tho bout when
Jimmy Dougherty, of I.elpervllle. offered
$10,000 (or a mix on Decoration Day. Kll
bano consented, but Chancy refused to sign,
and nothing was dono until Mat Hlnkcl
exposed his bankioll and finally signed the
, pair.
Needless, to say, all of this preliminary
stuff created lots of comment among tho
fans, and now that the match really has
been inado anil the battto Is to take place

W. MAXWELL
In a couplo of days, kllbane and Chaney
nre the principal topics ot conversation.
Boxers Make Weight
According to reports which have reached
here from I'levelnnd, both the champion
nnd the challenger nre down to the re
quired weight 122 pounds and from now
on wilt try to build tip Instead of taking
off, a few more pounds, They are training
In Cleveland, but will lenve for Cedar Point
on Hunday, where they will take things easy
until tho fight
Chancy has been putting In some hard
licks and is in wonderful shape. He Is
bnxlhg dally, with Wllllo Jackson nnd Dtnny
ttlilge, two cry closer boys, nnd has made
quite an Impression on tho ('Icelanders
A week ago he was not conceded a chance,
hut now there' are iiulto a few who seo
the possibility of the Ualtlmorc hoy win
hlng on a knockout.
, George can deliver a terrible wallop with
his left, and that makes him dangerous at
all times. If lie can send a few. hard blows
to Kllbane's body the champion will ho
slowed up and his chances for lctory
lessened considerably. Chaney made Mickey
Donley ipilt at the' National Inst winter
after lie landed some body blows, and he
hopes to do the same thing to the champion.
At that, this Is Chaney'H only chance to
win.
Cleverest in World
Kllbane. on the other hand. Is one of the
cleverest boxers In the world, and In addition
to that, poiscsses a knockout punch which
has been felt by innny of our ery beat
featherweight contenders Irish Patsy Cllno
took It on the chin at the National last
Kcbruary. Harry Donahue, a lightweight,
was floored In Now York, and Willie Jack
son received uch a terrible lacing nt tho
Olympla last spring that Itcforce O'Brien
stopped tho bout In tho fourth lound. This
PHOVKS that JOhnny can't hit, so It will bo
a swell mlx-up between two sluggers, but
with one nosesslng unusual cleverness.
From whero wo are sitting, it looks ns,
If the featherweight title will remain in
Cleveland, O, after the light, Kllbane
should win by a wide margin, If not by a
knockout. Ills left Jab should keep Chaney
off for six or sever, rourlds, nnd then It will
only bo a question of time before the sleep
producer lands on George's chin.
Abe Attell. who lost the tltlo to Kllbane,
now picks his conqueror to win next Mon
day. Abo sajs that Johnny will lnnd 10
blows to Chanoy's one and should win by
a knockout. Attell also Is willing to bet a
largo wad of real iponoy on his conviction.
V 'llbano enn overcome this handicap ho
will le doing more than any other boxer In
the world
P. S Abo Attell never" picked n. winner
In his life.
A largo delegation of fans left tills morn
ing on a special car over tho Ttondlng. and
will arrivo at the scene of battle some time
tomorrow.

Another Interracial match arranged Is

Athletic Club between Joa Jeaneite and Gun

being on the sidelines for more than a year.
He scored a knockout.
An effort was made to rematch Johnny Molo
ney with Knockout Joe O'Donnell, but Teddy,
the former's brother and manager, has decided
to let John lake things easy for about a month,
Ted expects to match Johnny at the smaller
clubs so that he can, get more experience and
learn to carry out the advice of his seconds
instead of getting excited over the urging ot
spectators. Johnny lost little prestige as a
result of his first professional match and proved
that he Is not only, a clever two-handed boxer,
barring ring generalship, but also a gams little
youngster. -j.-c

GOLFERS PEAR WEST COURSE
AT MERION MORE THAN EAST.
IN REHEARSING FOR NATIONAL
By SANDY
TUIJ galaxy of stars now scurrying- about
on tho enormous golf arenn of the Mer
Ion Golf Club In rehearsal for the national
next week Is decidedly more worried over
the west course than It Is over the cast.
Only 32 golfers from the huge field of the
country's best tulent will quality on Monday
for the match play, and It will thus take
two" very fast rounds to squeeze Inside the
ropes.
The "ticklish" trtiols on tho west course
are the malt! cause of vvorrlment to the vis
itors '
"I'd rnthcr play tho west course for my
practice rounds than the cast." said Sher
rlll Sherman, semlflnallsl last year. "A
fellow has got to know tho shots over there,
and I think there will be nil awful lot of
8s nnd Ps. I'm going tn put In most of my
time before Monday on tho west course."
And the gr.iy-bearded tJtlcn. star looked
thtuugh his glasses somewhat ruefully at
the last score ho had made there.
More Too
J. K. Hole, champion of Ohio, was of the
same opinion.
'There nre ittt avvfti lot of blind shots
over there, nnd watch them drop strokes on
tho creek shots," said Bole. ,
"The mnln ronton, though, that 1 think
better scores will ho mado on tho eastern
course Is that good golf on the east course
means n good score, but good golf on the
west course does not always mean that, In
my opinion "
Another star thought the going would bo
about 80-50 on tho two courses. For this
reason ho said that he thought tho players
would lighten up moro on tho west course
and take more caro for the slmplo reason
tlut they cannot see every shot and aro
nfrald of lolng deceived by tho distances.
"On the east course, though," ho said,
"a fellow can mostly see whnt's doing and
ban plenty of space to shoot. He will let
himself go and take more chances."
Detroit Course Harder
Most of tho players approached on the
subject thought that the Detroit courue,
where the chnmplopshlp was held last year,
was harder thanlhe Merlon course, one rea
son being that the player had to blng them
all the tlmo to make tho green. Tho rough
at Detroit was acclaimed to be so thick as
to cost shots many times, wlillo at Merlon
the rough did not seem to bother tho play
ers In the least. Sometimes they walked
right up to a ball nnd laced It with a
wooden club just ns far as off tho fair,
way
