In future matches of youthful Hnny at
a champion. Otherwise Polio k would
haver eonaetd lo a W elah-Iaeonard mtiaa.
Johnny Dundee must be left out, of tin
calculation when figuring on a twenty-r-tund
fight with Welalt. In r allly Iiun
ho would prove tougher than either
White or Ionard over the route, an I
for that reaaon V.n nul deemed It
proper to Ignore thv Scotch-Wop. Dundee
haa fought quit.) a number of twenty,
round battle, and know how to conduct
hltneelf across the distance, Leonard, on

Peculiar a It may aeem, Welsh thinks
ho ran make a better allowing against
Leonard oer twenty round than he can
in ten, Ho could hardly do any worse
than when he firat confronted Leonard
at the Uenlen aeveral week ago. Welsh
tta given the whipping of hla career in
the ten round. Jle does not think Benny
can repeat over a Btrotch.
That prediction of the first paragraph
hold, for Welah la mire to face White

will have a hard time retaining hi title,

Decision Bouts at

Not Very Popular
Referee' decision are to be aban

agitation against them, but because the
promoter find that they cannot Induce
the gtar of the. ring fo appear there
under reasonable term. High cIm bog

of the no decision center, Rocauae of

rapidly.
That eem to be the trouble In ell the
cities where declalon ere allowed. In
New Orlean and Denver only the cheap
est clas of boxer will consent to per
form and Interest In tho port ha suf
fered in consequence. In the end these
cltle aleo will have to abandon decision
In order to obtnln a fair share of the
good bouta, That mean that the cham
pionship bout rre enough a It 1 oon
will become entirely extinct.
The future of boxing under ur.h eonfll
llon look rather har.y, for without de
cision champion will ceaae to exlt.
However, the gam may be a lot better
off without "champion" of the kind w
have at preaent. If the term "cham
pion" wa dropped, boxing follower
would be nhle lo pay homage to the best
man In each clus Instead of some burnt
