LEONARD'S FRIENDS
WORRY OVER SHAPE
Think Harlem Lightweight May
Be in Poor Condition to
Tackle Champion.

NEW YORK. July 1S-Now that
Benny Leonard has been matched with
Champion Freddie Welsh. the followers
OF the little Harlem lightweight are
getting anxious about Bennys condi-
ton. Only twelve days remain before
the men climb mo the rinG at WASH
inston Park. and unless Leonard has
been boxing on the sly. the bell may
ind the Pride of Harlem somewhat
short on speed and accuracy.
Fight followers regard the swapping
IN of Leonard as a clever move on the
part Of the champion. With the date
only twelve days away. Benny will
have to work his head of to get into
the shape he displayed when he cut the
champion to ribbons on their last en-
counter. -
Johnny Dundee. who is always In
shape and who always puts up a whirl-
wind battle. might have been given a
chance at the champion. but Pollok
and Welsh evidently figured that this Is
, a good time to eliminate Leonard.
Welsh has apparently decided to try
and show he Is no cheese char pion. "
for this Saturday he Is scheduled to
meet Charley White. Chicago's heavy
hitting lightweight contender. There IL
hardly a chance that Charley can sliu
over his powerful right within the ten.
round limit. and the fight will only
serve to keep Welsh on edge for his
| bout with Leonard.
