EVERHARDT-LEEDS FIGHT
Lightweights Will Battle on Long

Everhardt is the Favorfte on Ac-
count of the Weight and His
Experience.

The lightweight championship is in doubt.
Jack McAuliffe, who held the title for a
number OF years, still claims ii. but all
VINO saw his recent 60 with George LavIgne

faci that McAuliffe has had his day.
Horace NJ. Leeds of Atlantic CITY. and
Jack Everhardt of New Orleans, are
aSpirants for lightweight honors. and to-
night Will meet in the arena of the Empire
CIuD, at MaSpeth, l.. l.. 10 decide which
Is the better man. The winner Will be
matched with Lavigne
Leeds wanted the match made at 1913
pounds, but Everhardt insisted on 1856
pounds. and Leeds was forced to make this
concession ana also Others, IN order 10
get the contest
Had the men fought at Dan Suart's
Mexican carnival il would have been at
80 pounds. but EverharClt insisted on the
extra pound. making ii 1876. and right as
long as one arm is free" Leeds insisted
OH the winner taking all.
The contest will - twenty-five rounds if
necessary. which practically means 10 a
finish, for two such fast fighters as Leeds
and Everhardt are likely TO reach a decision
before twenty-five rounds. Leeds viii have
the advantage in height and reach, aud his
friends look for him TO win before half of
twenty-five rounds have been contested
EYerhardt Is an extremely hard man to
get at when fighting wholly on the de
iensive, and has a very dangerous right
hand III mix up, and the people who pin
their faith 10 his chances look for a long
fight. 1t is sure 10 be a good fight no
matter who wins.
The really good men who can fight at 33
pounds are not very numerous. owen
Ziegler claims TO still be able To come 10
that weight, but he has not done il Of
late Charley McKecver won't attempt
anything below ] SO pounds. Jimmy
Handler can't get that low.
1t is probably because Jack Everhardt
knows that lie would not he strong at auy
weight below | SO, that he Insisted on thar
weight with Leeds. The latter can come
To 33 easily. In fact, that is his best
weight.
LaNigne may come 10 l 33. but he would
be better at 35. Knowing all this Leeds
says if he wins from EvCrhardt ne Will draw
