CAAP| IS NEXT TO
MEET WILLIAMS
Pride Of the Coast Is Expected
to Hook Up With Baltimore
Boy August 2.

LOS ANGELES. Cal. July 1L-Now
that Kid Williams, of Baltimore, has
disposed of Charley Ledoux, of France.
the Baltimorean will meet Eddie Campi
August 2. 1t is expected that the bout
will be arranged shortly and will be
staged at the Vernon arena.
Ledoux, who had the decision given
against him in the sixteenth round of
yesterdays battle with Williams. claim
ing a foul. which Referee Eyton did
not allow, the referee declaring the
Frenchman quit, was said to be In
pretty bad shape today from the maui
ing he received at the hands Of his
opponent.
The fight was a slashing one all the
way. for 1t was a slugging match from
start to finish. and there was not an
idle minute in any round. Right of the
reel in the opening round the Kid
biffed the Frenchman a terrific blow in
the mouth that brought the claret
freely. Blood flowed from his mouth
and nose In every succeeding round.
The blow staggered the boy from across
the pond, but he came back desperately.
The result of the battle adds greatly
TO the reputation of Williams. who Is
now conceded to be the true bantam
champion. HIS battle with Campi will
draw a record house, In spite of the
fact that Williams defeated Campi In
their last meeting. II is figured that
both Williams and Campi have i'm.
proved since that time and the real
championship will be at stake.

The announcement OF the post-season

in an intercity series Of baseball games
has set the fans talking of the probable
teams which viii compete for the honor.
Of the leagues under the amateur as

have a chance for the nag. Not all of
the teams play the ss:.se caliber OF
baseball, and many of the leagues VIII
nominate winners for the post-season
series which will make a sorry showing
against the stronger teams.
The winner of the Capital City League
is expected to be the winner of the city
series, and the honor viii fall to either
Cornell or the Bankers. There are those
who figure a win for the Bankers, and

wood. of the Central circuit, is capable
of doing. These four teams are likely
to be the ones most likely to fight for
the city title in the various leagues, ac-
cordins to the fans dope.

None of the Cornell pitchers were

been at Lafayette for the past two
