M;V YORK. KpI. Henny VslR.r, th Frnoli fcntlirw eight, -w ho has been ramping oi the trull of Johnny KUbn f'ir many monthn. will dt Ms chanc t th Cleveinnder's title In Newark tonight. KiUian nd VJer wilt feature th boxing curd to h ftnge.l by thn Newark Sportmen s Club. Their bout has been lahnle-1 8 a cbamptortohlp affslr. liut bfrauso of the Abbreviated distance an.l the. Now Jereey law which prov-ent tha rferaa from rendering a. l4.ialon. Valger will either have to knock Klihana out or beat him to a pulp to unrrown him. The meeting- between these two fast featherweights, however, has aroused unuaua.l interest. Valger has challenged Kilbane repeatedly for more than a year, an.1 up to the time promoter Iave Mackay lanie'l th match the champion contente-3 himself by ttllin Valuer to (o out atnl clean
! up the, featherweight fle-H bfnre ! knocking at his front rloor. This Val
ger has don. He has been one of the busiest boxers In the country, and he baa trimmed all the good ones who have been shadowing Kilbane. Kvidence that the champion has a wholesome respect for Valger was ehown when he demanded that the Frenchman make 124 pounds at 3 o'clock today, and post a forfeit of $1."(T) as proof that be meant to do It
In addition Kllban reserved thn right to enter tbf ring at catch weights, Joe Jacobs, Valger's manager hastily posted the, forfeit demanded by Kilbane. He also posted an additional ll.dno with promoter Dave, Mackay to Insure Valger's appearance All of which indicate! how eager Valger is to got into th" ring with the Cleveland veteran. Kllbane's showing in his List few bouts !n this section has led many followers of boxing to believe that he is through a a fighter. Many point out that the champion's great experience is all that gets him by. Rut regardless of the inir:ts of these arguments the fact remains that the featherweight champion has contented himself with winning from various second jate boys by thf, narrowest of margins. The. oniy bout in which Kilbane displayed h:p old-time punching power within many months wa. bis meeting with Frankie Hum?, who was knocked out by the champion. In f.iot. Kilbane i:aa not ben the same fightr since Pen-iy t,on3!d knocked him out in thre rounds f i Philadelphia. Tonight the champion will have to
and whether or not be lanhcKq l'S'in
extend himself to hold ViIc't o'f and whether or not he can , fand off the Frenchman is a much mooted question. Va.laer h.ts youth ami stamim on hss side. He b.is everyt h ing to win and little, to lose. That be will T into Kilbane from th" tap of the fiist Rong is a forgone (neiusion. Valger's f!trn? to uncrown the -trn. however, may prove ijis nnioing. The cl; ninp on is rust master at side-"teppinp jni hooking punches to itil spots, nnd this- is juKt hi
Valger nr epnc if he starts rush- j ing. Certain ; is that the Kilbane cs - j perience will hfwnd him in food stead j agiinst the Frenchman, but with it a!!j the tout should be a hiimm'r.

Pitching Ban Will Change Game
Br JACK VEXOCX. STAFF CORRtSPONDCNT I N. SESVICE N'luAV YiRK. l'Vh. It. The ,an on
freak pitciilni; is b.mnd to decrease the fffect.iven.-ss of pitch. TS who have been depending on ny of the various trick deliveries, declared "Wild ItiU" Donovan, manager of the Jersey City club, former pilot of the Ya.nks and once a star pitcher with IVMroit, fodsy. In discussing recent legislation neainst "freaks' adop'oij by the major league. ' The ban on freak pitching in a good thing for the game," paid roncvan. "In my opinion it will result in increased hitting and whi the. spitball finally goes, in better fielding on the part of the inilelder. The use of the spitball, you know, is often responsible for wild thrbwft by the infieblers. "Don't believe anybody who tflls you that the emery ball or fh shine i,-)!l are mostly myths. There's no doubt that they are rn.llties. ;,nd tliat they Lave ber-n use-d successfully. And it i.i a certainty that the ban against th'-ni will greatly decreflse the effectiveness of such pitchers as H"d Flier and Fddie Ci'-otte. Take Cicotte for instance. was never a fpwl ball nil.hei before he started to use the shiner. He pitches much differently than he did in the djys when he vn trailing along with mediocre twirlejo "The rafsjng of the spitter jffr 1!iis year will giva batting another boost in 1921 for it is a certainty that good spitball pitchers could r.ever prove as effective vising ordinary method of pitching. What o you suppose K.J 'Walsh or Jack fhesbro would have amounted to without the sn.;tter? It is probable, that neither of them would Lave ranked among the re.il!- grat pitchers."
