ICY recently at fete given at her
parents estate, Georgian Court, Lake
wood, n. j., for the benefit of the Red
Cross. She wrote a play, entitled The
i .ost Child" for the occasion and coach

Gloria further electrified the guest by
reciting poems Of her own composition

Willie Richie BY disposing OF These
two. Lewis feels he will have clarified
the welterweight situation TO such an
extent that there will be none to doubt
his word that he is the worlds welter
champion He admits he is: that
should settle all disputes, according to
his way Of thinking. Lewis has beaten
Richie once, but has never met Packey
in the ring.
Now Freddie Welsh, who is the Fight
weight champion, is n countryman Of
Lewis. But that matters little to Ted
Kid He wants that lightweight title,
in addition TO the welterweight diadem.
AND he threatens to get It, too. II
Welsh only viii consent 10 get INTO the
ring with him. Welsh may grant
Ted's request for a titular match by
making a weight imposition which he
may think Will stagger Lewis But
Ted-Kid has guaranteed TO make any
poundage suitable to Welsh.
Mr.. Lewis, be IL known, does not
vearn to be the lightweight champion
for long. He merely desires to hold
the title brief period, for the weight
making for this division is distastetul
to him. He would voluntarily with
draw from the lSS-pound class after
a stipulated time. and let the conten'
ders determine the next righttul cham
pion by a process OF elimination.
VIII Tackle Anybody.
While he is holding the lightweight
and welterweight championshipF-tn

KID. az a legitimate lightweight. fought
several 155-pounders, and the ease ana
grace with which he vanquished them
convinced him that he would have less
determined opposition from middle
weights than he would from light ana
welterweights.
The foregoing. for the most part, may
appear illogical. but every word Is
fact, based on Lewis's statements. Now
here comes the anticipated question:
Just how much does Ted-Kid Lewis
weigh2"
II is not FOR the writer 20 answer,

handler. Alec Goodman. alone know this
secret of Ted-Kid Lewis's weight. i
may seem peculiar but even Jimmy
Johnston. Lewis's manager, has no ink

ston does is TO make matches for Lewis,
who merely tells James 70 sign him up
with any lightweight. welterweight or
middleweight in the business And the
startling thing IS that Lewis always Is
at weight for any match with light
