ChicagOan Gets First Cham
pionship Match Under the
Walker Law Provisions.
ny CHARLES f. MATHIsoN.

Opportunity will knock tonight at the
door of Joe We ling of Chicago, who is
to meet Benny Leonard, lightweight
champion of the word, in a fifteen
round contest at Madison Square Gar
den. There is only one drawback from
the yelling viewpoint. Leonard may
knock harder than opportunity, The
champion has a disagreeable habit OF
snuffing the hopes of ambitious light
weights and, while yelling may prove
an exception, to the rule. yet Leonard is
always to be reckoned with UP 10 the
time the last blow Is struck However.
It is the first time Wei ing has had
chance to meet the present title holder
IN the ring, and the Chicagoan naturally
is bubb.ing over with enthusiasm and
high hopes.
There are several ways in which
yelling can be returned the winner in
to-nght's bout. If the Chicagoan is
able TO DUPONT Leonard he will get the
decision OF the judg $. Yet. owing to
Leonard's skill as boxer, the odds on
the champion getting the verdict in the
event of the bout lasting the limit of
fifteen rounds would be one to ten.
yelling might land a knockout punch.
for he Is a hard hitter. Yet Leonard's
ability as hitter so far surpasses that
of the other lightweights that again the
odds would be prohibItive. Those will
ing to. wager on a knockout by the
champion offer even money.
yelling might win on foul, but that
Is remote, because Leonard is as clean
a boxer as ever put up his hands.
There may be some other situations in
which yelling might be returned a win
ner. but they are hardly worth consid-
ering.
1t is barely possible that yelling may
get over a bow that will bring the con-
test TO a close in his favor, but II he
succeeds. ii will be as great an upset
of public form as when Young Corbett
stopped Terry McGovrrn or when Jim

TWO GOLFERS TIE
FOR MEDAL AT 81
G. w. Dunphy and f. w.
Knight Lead Qualifying
Round at Lakewood.
by KERR N. PETRIE.

When Greek meets Greek in a crowd
ed field ii is nine-tenths Of a moral GER
tainty that some dashing member of
the great unsung will be the first to
drive his spikes across the line OF vic
tory. The truth of this was borne home
with full force yesterday at Lakewood
Country Club in the resumption of the
layed on the course recently recon-
structed by Walter j. Travis when c, j..
Dunphy, who halls from the Woodland
Club Of Boston, and Fred w. Knight of
Whitemarsh Valley came through to tie
for the qualifying medal in front of
those two great metropolitan rivals.
Gardiner w. White of Nassau, metro
politan runner up. and William NJ.
Reekie of Upper Montclair. titleholder
Of the New Jersey State Association.
Dunphy and knight scored 81 each.
against the pair of S2's registered by
the New York couple.
In several tournaments around their
own district this year White and Reekie
have had it hot and heavy, with honors
about even for the contests which they
have waged in public at least. White
downed the Upper Montclair man in the
metropolitan championship and Reekie
found his opportunity to even the score
in the final of the invitation meeting
held over the Lido links. 1t was quite
n tid-bit to find the pair ondeavoring
to settle their differences in the qualify
ing round of the Lakewood tourney.
On the other hand 1t may nave been
a trifle unkind of Dunphy AMI Knight
to deprive the pair of a chance to again
cross clubs. but as the luck OF the draw
has kept them to opposites of the
bracket that little matter may yet be
remedied If they attend strictly to bust
ness from now ona
However. common deccncy demands
that Drnphy and Knight be given full
credit for their work in playing the
metropolitan pair out and themselves
into the tie. The Woodlander wins
another mark for going out in 80 and
thereby registering the only half way
total better than 40 either way In a
field of siXty-nine players. Instead of
now facing u tie, Dunphy should hove
the qualifying medal on the end Of his
watch fob. And If ever player has
reason to think well of the tickle little
imps who bow the rubber core around
on the green either into or past the
cup this player is Knight For. to make
a long story short, Dunphy took no less
