BUFF BATTLES SHARKEY
FOR THE BANTAM TITLE

NEW YORK. November 1o.-Johnny
Buff. world champion bantam
weight. will defend his title tonight
against Jack Sharkey in a fifteen
round bout. Sharkey has announced
that he Yill make determined effort
to snattA- the laurefS from the brow
Of Bun, who has held the title only
five weeks after wreating 1t from
Pete Herman. Sharkey was tho only
man In the country good enough and
fast enough to whip Jimmy Wilde.
when the great little Welshman came
over here, and Bun is prepared to de-
fend his new title with the best he
has.
The interest Of the fans was today
centered on Sharkey's condition. If
the sturdy little Italian is able to
keep his hands and gloves going at
top speed for the fifteen rounds and
escape punishment from Buff. he has
a good chance to earn the decision on
points and incidentally win the title.
II he wavers or loses hts aggressive
ness, Run will retain his title, they
say. Sharkey has never been formid-
able as regards to knockouts, and his
victories have been gained by his
ability to keep fighting fast and
furious for many successive rounds.

If 1t can preserve throughout the con-
test the margin with which it be-

can go through without major sub

All this Is written without regard
for the fact that Princeton may slump

1t was Glen Warmers view that
Princeton would lose to Yale. even
IL Yale were weaker, in any year
