B1TAMS CDULOTJ Ai BURNS PUT THEIR SPURS 01 TONIGHT
Little Fellows in Championship Fight at Kenosha Are Prepared for D esperate Battle.
Johnny Coulon, boss of the bantams, and Frankle Burns, for years his dangerous rival, engage In their fourth fight tonight. In the three previous encounters there has been a winner returned but once, then In the last whirl, a twenty-round affair at New Orleans. But the referee's ruling was not favorably received when It went to Coulon. The fourth meeting of the pair tonight will take place in the little skating rink at Kenosha. Wis., where Coulon has fought a trio of battles, but where Burns Is a stranger from a strange land. The mill is billed to go
ten rounds and there will be no decision at the end, except the newspaper verdict, if both men are on their feet after the half hour of milling. That is the only drawback to the contest the lack of a decision, but It will not prevent the men from fighting like mad. Burns has got to fight. The bout means all In all to him. Recently shaded by Eddie Campi. a popular win scored over him by the champion will serve to push him farther down In the ranks of the bantams. Frankie therefore may be depended upon to battle the best he knows how, and Jersey City will tell you that Burns Is some fighter.
Cross and Ledoux in a Lively Exhibition Setto
Los Angeles, Cal., June 23. A few hundred of our best people stood a sixty-minute sun broil for the privilege of seeing Charley Ledoux of Paris, France, and Leach Cross of New York, box two rounds in the Vernon ring and it was worth It, too. Ledoux, blue tighted to his neck, began operations wth the punchng bag. By actual count he landed on the leather Just eleven times in nine min-

utes. Then a cruel thing happened. Cross, attired in a cherry-colored makeup, stepped on the platform and made the bag beg for mercy. He waltsed while he punched, played Tankeen Doodle on the bag until he had the bleacher birds whistling an accompaniment, punched it with his fists, elbows and head. Technically' speaking, Ledoux was being "shown up." Ledoux first took on Johnny Arrosay. In two rounds he painted a bunch of geraniums on the Arrozay mug and sent the battered boy away talking to himself. After Cross and Ledoux had finished their "friendly" affair Leach took on Norman Stone for the middleweight. We hope none of "Bud" Anderson's friends saw this little setto. Cross played with the big fellow for a few seconds and followed by plopping him on the Jaw with a right. Another plop with a left, and Stone was so close to a knockout that Leach had to shove on the muffler.. In a few minutes of action Cross proved something that has been suspected for a long time that he is a master of the boxing game.' This goes, In a measure, for Ledoux. The Frenchman may not be a Freddie "Welsh for froth, but when it comes to vicious hand-to-hand slugging, ability to take a hard wallop and give a harder one, we string with the unshaved stranger.

pea rurther proceedings. It was quite a rainfall and comnlete

tne game could not have been con

announcing It plainly to the natrons.

OX ID BROWNS HAND OUT BLANKS
Defeat Each Other, 2 to 0; Scott Fans Thirteen, But Loses Opener.
Before a crowd of close to 26,000 souls some people to see a pair of second division teams perform the White Sox broke even yesterday in a double bill with the 8t. Louis Browns. The scores were 2 to 0 In each half and both scraps were the tightest kind of pitchers' battles. The Callahans played a lot of bad baseball and were fortunate to sret an
even break for they were outplayed by the men from the other end of the sanitary canaL The first game was so evenly contested that It required a couple of lucky breaks to turn the scale, and tt was the better of the two. In the second game the White Sox had the smiles of fortune and came through victorious in spite of their own numerous misdeeds. Jim Scott was pitted against Walter Leverenz in the curtain raiser, and the younger hurler was victor, in spite of the fact that the Wyoming hunter pitched a magnificent game. Two scratch singles, neither of which went out of the Infield, were all the White Sox could get oft Leverens. These and a pair of passes were the only breaks In a perfect slate for the son of Gl-beah..
