CRIQUI- I-DUNDEE GO
 THURSDAY LOSES OUT IN RECEIPTS

NEW YORK, July 2S.-superior power of ballyhoo attending the Leonard- Tender lightweight cham = pionship fight has almost completely obscured the other world champion shin scrap of this week, between Eu- gene Criqui and Johnny Dundee. They meet Thursday at the Polo Grounds but after their date had been ar ranged the Cromwell A. c. decided to drop in the lightweights earlier in which apparently will detract thou sands of dollars from gate receipts at the featherweight bout.
 Dundee appears to be slight Ia vorite over Criqui in the early bet ting, which is light. The French holder of the championship landed only one real punch in his fight with Johnny Kilbane, the one right swing that dropped Kilbane and trans ferred the championship. Dundee, all though old to the ring, has been stopped only once in his life.
 Criqui has been training at Man hasset l.. l., in the same tree-shaded premises he occupied when prepar- ing to fight Kilbane. His boxing Is at an end now and he will do only little running each morning to keep his lungs in condition.
 Dundee will do some boxing Tues day to wind up his training. Both fighters are down to 126 pounds, the required weight.
 The top price for tickets will be the lowest charged at a champion ship fight in several years-$l0.

A woman's fascination, they say, consists in keeping the op- position in a muddled state of con tinual speculation. If that rule holds good in baseball, then there is undoubted fascination about the wabbly Baronial machine as it lurches from one side of the road to the other down the path of the Southern league flag chase.
 And today we find the Barons said to be the woFst road team ever sent out of Birmingham actually ahead of the game, after having played five games on the road.
 The Barons got an even break by dividing four games with the Vols. Monday they copped the opener at Chattanooga, and have taken the lead for the road series.
 There are "sure things and Sure kills" in the baseball world, but even the most risky of the speculators are very cautious about predicting anything for that team of Stuffy Stewards.
 And now the fan flock gazes full upon just another one of those delightful little phenOme- m that go to mai<e baseball the national sport it is. The Bnrons are waIIoping the Look outs, who trounced the Crackers, who slaughtered the Barons. There's some satisfaction in that, even if Stuffy Stewards men can't beat Atlantn, they con humble the cOnquerOrs of the Crackers.

this advantage like a cat but it was question of whether Tender slipped. When Tender stood up he had time to rub off his gloves on his pants.
