Challenger and Champion Close Training for Feather Title Match

CRIQUI TELLS FRIENDS HE’LL STOP YANKEE, BUT KILBANE IS FAVORITE Battle Will Be Fought at Polo Grounds, New York, Saturday Afternoon and Promoter Predicts Capacity Attendance, By HENRY FARRELL United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, June I.—Eugene Criqui, European featherweight champion, announced today he would knock out Johnny Kilbane in the sixth round when they meet here Saturday afternoon. , The 24-year-old Frenchman, who fought his way to the European championship after he had part of his jaw shot away at Verdun, said that he felt fine, that he weighed 124 pounds and that he was ready to take the title.

Kilbane, on the theory that socks j and not words win fights, refused to venture a prediction on what he would do. “I'm the chan.pion. and I feel as good as I ever did. You know what I mean,” he said. Johnny Under Weight The champion said he was also under weight, and that he would spend the rest of the day doing noth- j ing. He finished his training two days ago. Tom O’Rourke, who is staging the contest in the park of the New York Giants, said that the grounds would hold sixty thousand spectators, and he expected to have customers for all the seats. The card starts at 3:30 p m. (eastern daylight time) with a four-round number between Jackie McCoy and D,.vey Jones. The second event will be six rounds between A1 Zeimer, Kilbane’s chief sparring partner, and Billy Levine. Two eight-round bouts will then follow' between Jack Sharkey and

If a census were taken now you would find the name “HARRY LEVINSON” in the crowns of more straw hats than possibly all of the others put together. Obviously this condition could not exist if Levinson straws did not fit the head perfectly, if they were not good looking on the men who wear them and if they were not stylish. We can fit any head with a straw hat that 1 looks good, feels good and is good. This is not a threat, but a promise.

Dodgers Speed It might distress, but not surprise, the Pittsburgh Pirates to be grabbed by the heels and yanked down out of second place In the National League standing some day right soon by a club which recently was considered a hopeless straggler. The Brooklyn Dodgers who won three out of four games from the Champion Giants recently, won another from the Boston Braves in Boston Thursday, 5 to 2, while the Pirates were losing to the Cardinals in St. Louis. So the Dodgers, who were once “so contemptible,” are now only two and one-half games behind the Pirates.

STRONG BOYS OF BLUES WITH US' FOR FOUR GAMES Lots of Bombardment Expected at Tribe Lot — Payne Is Released, The Blues, the Blues, the slugging Biues, were in town today—with batting eyes like two home runs and a nose like a two-base hit. Holding a long lead in the early part of the A. A. race the K. C. out- : fit looks mighty powerful, but maybe they’ll learn it takes much extra power to get the long ones at Washington Park, where pop flies don’t clear the fences. However, the men of Wilbur Good have lost only six games this season and they are in the midst of a winning streak. Their victory in Milwaukee Thursday was their ninth straight ,and it’s going to take good pitching to stop them. Here for Four Games Perhaps Carmen Hill can do it. He was slated to hurl for the Tribe this afternoon in the series opener. The league leaders are here for games and the Indian fans would like* nothing better than to see the Hendricksmen bowl ’em over for two ot three. Such a feat is possible, you know, but not probable. The Tribe club officials cut another player loose today. Outfielder Leo Payne, Grand Rapids rookie, was released to the Ft. Smith Club of the Western Association managed by Fred Hunter, who played here a number of years ago. The Tribe gave the railroads some business the List few days. Outfielder Purcell was sent to the Denver teafm. Pitcher Crum to Tulsa and Outfielder Payne to Ft. Smith. Great for Seven Innings The wind-up of the Colonel-Tribe series Thursday was an Interesting contest for seven innings. Koob oi the Colonels and Petty' of the Indians staged a swell pitching battle, but in the eighth Petty’s defense cracked and left some openings and the Colonels drove through-for four runs. The fii,al score was 8 tq. 1. Campbell started the fireworks in the eighth when he elected to stage a track meet with a Colonel baserunner instead of throwing the ball. He lost the race and it was not long then until the ball game was lost.
