CAN ATTELL MAKE
WEIGHT AND WHIP
FRANKIE BURNS?
Classiest Match Since Driscoll-
Attell Affair and Will Be
Held Friday Night.

The New York boxing fans are In for
a great flstic treat Friady night when
Abe Attell, champion featherweight OF
the world. meets Frankie Burns. cham
pion OF New Jersey. In a t%en-round con-
test at the National Sporting Club. From
a boxing standpoint this is the classiest
match arranged In New York since the
famous Driscoll-Attell affair. and many
experts believe that will even eclipse
that contest.
Attell has cleaned up In nearly every
division of the boxing game excepting
the middley light and heavyweight class.
and there are some who think the little
scrapper could even rcore against some
Of the bulky white hopes" Of the pres
ent day. lie as downed nearly all Of
the lightweights and wen invaded the
weller division. Now he Is getting down
to the bantams.
Attell has agreed to make lis pounds
ringside for Burns. 1his means that the
contest will be far from one-sided as
Burns has demonstrated that he can
hold his own against any boy Of his
weight. At catchweights Attell UNI
doubtedly would best Burns. but there
Is a question II he can hold his W at
the stipulated weight. Attell has been
/ working hard and will be lighter by four
pounds than at any time during the last
three years.
