WILLIAMS HAS
MUCH TOGAIN
Victory Will Give Balti-
more S Battler Right to
Meet Herman.

Baltimore. Aug. Close stu
dents of the boxing game believe
Kid Williams will be right to
mingle with Pete Herman, his sue
cessOr to the bantam-weightt throne,
should the Baltimore Wolf Boy be
Ertle when they clash in their
Oriole Park tomorrow evening.
Ertle, in his previous two battles
with Williams, gave the former
king of the bantams more trouble
than any other opponent, not bar
ring Herman, who was awarded
Williams championship by one of
the most ridiculous decisions ever
handed out in the prize ring. In
fact, Ertle is accredited with hav-
ing won over Williams twice. Al
though the thrilling mill at the
Lyric two years ago was declared
a draw b. the referee. the newspa-
pers gave the honors to the Middle
Westerner, and while no decision
was meted out by the arbiter in
their first clash in st. Paul, it was
admitted that the st. Paul kewpie
was the winner on d lOul, the COn-
test having been stopped in the
fifth round, in which Williams de-
livered low punch.
Some of Williams closest friends
were surprised when they had
learned that his manager, Phil
Glassman, of Philadelphia, had
agreed to let the former champ box
such a wicked puncher as Ertle so
soon after his return to the ring.
Ertle possesses a wicked right hand
punch and if the visitor lands to-
morrow it will surely be curtains
for Williams. 1t was with this
same blow that Ertle sent Williams
to the rosin for the count of nine
in their fracas at the Lyric, which
Ertle claims he would have won by
a Knockout had not the count of
the referee been slow and had not
sponge of water been hurled on
Williams as he was stretched out
on the canvas, apparently dead to
the world.
