Benny Leonard in Fine Shape
To Defend Title Against Mitchell
Lightweight Oh a III pion
Has Strenuous W Workout
for Bout Tomorrow
By Jack Lawrence

According to advcos from Milwaukee
Benny Leonard, lightweight champion
of the world, is IN great shape to de
fend his title tomorrow against
"Pinkcy" Mitchell, who is the chal
longer on this occasion.
in tho West this fight. which takes
place tomorrow afternoon, has created
a great deal of discussion and enthusi-
asm and the idea has been expressed
rather widely that Mitchell has the
stuff to remove this greatest of all
fstc powers.
The battle between Mitchell and
Leonard VIII mark the formers first
encounter in the campaign which he
is staging with The idea Of becoming
the welterweight champion Of the
world. title he hopes to take from
Jack Britton before another New Years
has rung it's bells.
If the tidings from Milwaukee can
be believed Benny is in superb condi-
ton. He has put in a strenuous SEES
sion Of training in that city and will
60 into tee ring tomorrow weighing
not moro than 133 lounds He has
boxed with no less light than Johnny
Buff, fyweight champion Of America
and bantamweight champion of the
world, and the latter, according to Mil
waukee dispatches. has declared that
Benny is fit and ready to give Mitchell
q fine trimming and later to continue
his pageant of triumph through the
West.
Penetrates Bluffs Defense
Leonard boxed two rounds with Buff
and two with Bob Miller and Eddie
Metric, both members of Milwaukee's
scrapping fraternity. Benny kept his
right under cover in his bout with
Buff, but let his magic left range far
and near. His dizziness with this AaDd
was most impressive. 1t penetrated the
best defense that Buff had to offer.
Benny appeared to be we'll trained
down and the universal comment 10
the effect that he could never agaiA
make 135 pounds seemed to be re-
futed. He must weigh in Tomorrow
at that figure, and there is every indi-
cation that he will make it.
Babe Herman. former sparring part
ner of Jack Dempsey, and generally
known as the Frisco Flash" will make
his second bow to New York fight fans
on Friday night at Madison Square
Garden. His opponent will be Andy
CLANCY, that formidable kid from
Baltimore, who is now a resident Of
our own West Side.
Herman is a popular scrapper here
and his return to local rings will un
doubtedly be welcomed. He has been
on the Coast, his native shore, and
has undergone a series Of operations
which cut short a ring career that

Over Yale and Columbia
ia Only 2 Games Played

possible championship quintet Of the
East is the Connecticut Agricultural
College five Of Storrs, Conn. The Ag-
gies have scored over Harvard, Army
and Brown, but the glory of these vic
tories is somewhat dimmed. Harvard
was not out in full force and has been
handicapped all year by injuries, while
the Army triumph was only = two-point
victory.
From present indications the annual
intcrcolleg league basketball race
will be another top-heavy affair. The
three teams which have appeared on To-
cal courts, namely, Princeton, Yale and
Columbia, are not apparently of sufii-
cient strength to give worthy battle to
Penn, Dartmouth and Cornell, which
again appear the class Of the league.
The season will be opened on January
8, when Columbia goes to Hanover to
meet Dartmouth.
Dartmouth is again sure to give the
University of Pennsylvania hard fight
for the league champ ionship. The Green
has veteran combination, while Penn
lost Danny McNichol, its leading point
scorer, through graduation. Dartmouth
has Captain Millar and Jimmie Cullen,
two OF the best college players of the
year. Frank Heep, another veteran.
and Malcolm, last ears freshman cap
tain, are also expected to dc some good
work this year.
