WHITE IS GETTING CHESTY
Very Confidently Sayi He Expect!
to Pat One Freddie Welsh,
Tango Artist, to Sleep.
HAS FLANS ALL MAPPED OUT
Or hioiitr.
NKW TORK. June 1 ftuirley White,
the eminent piincholoitUt of Chicago, ha
confided to the perpetrator of the p
pvnded word Just how he will become
llphtwelaht champion of the world when
t; treete Freddie Welsh, the Incumbent
tltJeholdef, In achedtiled twentf-round
bout at Denver on.Joly 4, or on Labor
dr.
White ha already mapped out hla cam
paign of battle, and declares ha la cer
to in of winning. The onlr .thhuc Charley
It not aura ot la tha data. However, ha
la ra Inlnc axulduouely ao a a to ba pre
pared ahould tha bout be definitely de
clared for Independence day.
" "I 111 knock Wei ah out with a lef(
. hook to the Jaw." aaid White In outllnlng
the fight. "And you may expect the
finish around the fifteenth round.' I do
not think there la a. man . llln- who
rould put eluilve Freddie, away within
the ten-round limit. i
'Although I have won'myilaat four
battle m quick order by. mean of that
eld left hook-1 believe my .endurance
and etamlna are better than er before;
and for that reaeon I. aspect 'te carry
Freddie alone at a torrid pace until I
am ready to drop him for tha long count.
Remember, about the -fifteenth round."
The writer here Interpoaed the reminder
that White haa not been o 'aucceaaful
la bouta over twelve round duration.
Tli a only route bout In which White made
any kind of a'ahowlna; In hhi fifteen
'round affair with Bobby. Wauth at Fort
Wayne. Tex., In lSlL Thla ended In a
draw. White Buffered a, technical knock
out by Jack Brit ton Id eighteen round
'In ttll and loet a twenty-round, deolaton
to Danny Webater on the'ooeat back In
iio. ... .
A 'nealer ffew.
'"Oh," ' rejoiced white, Vthoall - hap
pened a Ion time ago,; when l'we only
an aspirant for tlie.chnmpIonsMp. In
stead of a contender a T era tod.yrYou
may expect better th Intra of 'me. In the
future. . .
I have Welsh' number by thla time.
Tha flrat time. I fought h1ra I waa eome
what handicapped- by atage fright' Thla
I frankly adtnIC' However, In our, next
meeting I showed my utter disregard, for
bis beat Hunches 'and clearly ..outfought
him. Those who aaw that fight will eub
atantlata thla statement" And eapoclally
the way Freddie ,1a .going at present, 1
ahould have little .trouble In ending the
'bout when I feel ao disposed after the
fifteenth round. It will take ma all of
ten rounda to wear Weif h down.
."I do not fear Freddle'a feather-duater
punch; I can match hlnv In' elevernesa,
and hi ring generalship . wlH prove of
little avail to him when he oollldee Into
thla old left hock." And 'be. Illustrated
the blow. Fortunately, we were out of
fang. ' .'.. . ;
Meat ltlk PI a a.
That la what White says. We (WW
Mlh theee optntona, and upptement that
U can do all thaaa thlnga If only ha will
ot become discouraged while Welsh U
subjecting him to a fire of atlnglng Jabs
In the early ten round. Welsh reallzea
that ha will-have te fight fast to avoid
going under In a few round; and by
keeping on top of White he .hope lo
make White believe that he haa Bet out
on a fool' errand hy trying to- knock
him out, and maybe rharley will return
to ane method and stand off and spar
for the rent of the distance.
Bo It behoove White to adhere to hi
plan of battle, and not deviate from hi
anticipated running fight If he I kindling
hopes to becoming the new lightweight
champion. " -
Retain I-ondna . Belt. .
Should Welsh lose hla laurel to. White
en innepentietice day he would aim re.
lain the Iord Lonsdale belt, . emblematic
of the English champlonehlp. But Fred
die will have to fight on the other aide
shortly in defense, of the belt, .or forfeit
thla token of European aupremacy, ac
cording to the condltlona under, which
tha a wand waa conferred. ,
Welah and hla manager, Harry Pollok,
have been Informed, that .unless Freddie
returns to England In the fall and de
fend a hla title aganat Jerry Delaney, the
latest challenger, he will have to return
the bauble to the donors. . It a more than
likely that Welah will go. back and try
to hold on to, the belt, aa It. can till be
capitalized there In the event, of hla lo
Ing the world's championship.
f'ealm ta , Walt.
Although he la mentioned aa fhe flrat
opponent for Jeaa Wlllard, Jim Coffey,
the Roaoommnn: giant and heavyweight
champion of the Bronx. Is being strongly
advlaed to abandon the, taak until he
become more efficient under fire.
Coffey la a alam-bang fighter, and
would take on Wlllard at a week's notice.
But that would be courting trouble, aa he
would be an eaay victim to Wlllard'
punishing blowa Coffey lacka experience,
and needa a more effective defenae be
fore he can hope to cope with a man of
Wlllard'a atamp.
Coffey haa proved hla gameneM, and
hla ability to deal out punishment, but he
haa yet to convince a few hundred thou
sand fight fana that he can avoid a
punch to the Jaw and any kind of a
punch to the Jaw makea Coffey's' mind
hiy for a few momenta. Coffey cannot
withstand the ahock of a hard wallop to
tha Jaw, and being unable to do so It ta
kind to advlae htm to keep out of the
way of punches to that point.
Coveleskie One of
Few Eeal Comebaoks
..DETROIT,. Mich.. June l.-One of the
moat remarkable come-back In baae ball
la , Harry Coveleskie,' the ' left-handad
pitcher of the Detroit club. Coveleakle
was considered out of, major league baae
ball when five or ax' years ago he was
sent to the Southern, league. For a time
his work there wee only mediocre, and
those who ware responsible for hla going
there felt satisfied that no mistake had
been made.
But Coveleakle continued to Improve
and finally became a atar in that com
pany and Detroit drafted him. He now
la one of the best pitchers in the league
and la very likely to make a better rec
ord thlg year than he did last season.

If we deride to do any versing we will
do it after while.
We will now tell a stt.ry. Thla la a
good one. We know It la a good one, be
cause we atole It,
This la It. A couple; of local golfera of
the' duffer variety were chaalng around
the llnka of a local club. For conven
ience aake they 'had the caddy keep the
eoo re.
Finally the almoet g"olfere reached the
eighteenth hole and asked the caddy, who
won, preparatory to the rUah to the well
known nineteenth hols, where the golf-
era ceaaed to be duffers and became
cracka.
"Who won!" Impatiently queried one of
the golfera
"Walt a minute," anawered the caddy.
Business of waiting.
"Well, well," acolded the golfer, "tell
ga the score. -
"Aw. give me time, give me time,"
anarled the cady, "I've got to add theae
figures a column at a t'me, I'm ro ad
