DON'T SEEK JUSTICE
Ball Players Always Give Umpires tn.
Worst of 1t, F'riel Says.

Milwaukee, Wis, July 25.-Baseball
players always give umpires the
worst of it, on close plays in the
opinion of William F'riel, manager of
The Milwaukee club of the American
association. Friel was a player for
years, then a manager and umpire.
Since his experience as an umpire,
Friel said he became aware of a few
things he didn't know existed in the
old days.
IT'S against the rules for a base
ball player to be fair with an umpire, -
Friel explained. "a player doesn't
want to know that an umpire was
right; he doesn't want the public to
know it either.
after I became manager of the
Milwaukee club, a friend wrote me
asking if was going to jump on the
umpire. I told him it would be as
Tough for me to go thru a ball game
without yelping at the umpire as it
would be for George Conan to go thru
a play without waving the American
flag.
Il am going to take all can get
on the ball field. 1t puts life into the
game to roar a bit even tho the UNI
lire is absolutely right"

Leonard and Kilbane Fight
Six Rounds i'm Phila.
Both Boys Said To Be Trained
to a Razor Edge.
BY JACK VEIOCK.

New York, July 25.-Benny Leonard
and Johnny Kilbane are ready for
their six-round tilt at Philadelph a to-
night. SIS
Both boys have trained hard for
this meeting, not because of the dis
lance they will have to travel, but
because there is something at stake,
and to be out of condition would be
taking unwarranted chances.
Kilbane, king of the featherweights.
will enter the ring with his title
secure, for should he lose to Leonard
via the knockout route, he will still be
featherweight champion, owing to the
weights. But Kilbane is ambitious,
He has outfought every boy in his
division, and is forced through circum-
stances to take on the lightweights.
If he can annex the crown which now
adorns Leonard's dome, it will be
worth at least 100000 to him, and he
is going to try it in six rounds.
Leonard in Shape.
Leonard has trained for to-night's
joust because he doesn't intend to be
caught mapping, and because he will
with the dazzling pace E<ilbane will
set. Leonard isn't entertaining
thoughts of losing his title, but he is
determined to take care of it.
If he can knock Kilbane cold he will
not hesitate to do so, because it will
add great weight to his popularity
and he is proud to be styled as "a
champion with Knockout punch"
For boxing six rounds these two
little knuckle-dusters will receive
$4,000 each, with a privilege of col
1ecting 80 per cent of the gross re-
ceipts. The purse is the largest that
has ever been given for a six-round
bout, and on the face of things the
match doesn't appear to be worth
more than half the amount guaran-
teed. But it is to be a tilt between

teen years, and the boxing public is

Possibility of X. o.
Figuring that both boys tote a
knockout punch, there is always the
possibility that one or the other may
go down for the count before the bell
calls a halt. But both boxers are I'M
usually clever, great ring generals and
great artists when it comes to cover
ing the vital spots. So from this dis
lance it appears that the best the box
ing fans can expect for their money Is
a fast six-round boxing contest from
which both boys will emerge with nice
slick hair and probably warmed up to
the point where they could make a
good fifteen or twenty-round fight of
