Past performances by both teams show them to be evenly mached, and a fast battle is the fore- cast. Both teams have a large fol- lowing, the Pawneesrepresenting the south end of the city and the Anmnex the east side. Loyal rooters for both clubs will be on hand in an abund- ance tomorrow to cheer for their pets. ‘While the Annex seems-to have the edge on their opponents, there are many who are looking for an upset in the “dope” when the ump calls “Play ball” tomorrow. At the outset of the season the Pawnees did not Jook very formidable, but .during the fight for the honors in the H. C. league they have put up a clean, ag- gressive fight for the pennant.

There is no vast amount of differ- ence to be distributed among Charley White, Benny Leonard and Johnny Dundee. One is about as capable as the other two in a test battle with Welsh. So it stands that if Freddie can trim White decisively the twety-round drive, there can be little question as to his continued upremacy. White 1s not only a hard hitter, hut an experienced boxer. For ten rounds he is pretty sure to Tun cecond. But his best chance comes in the last eight rounds, where Welsh is likely to slow up more than a bit, unless he carries more ruggedness In his system than we think he happens to have. On the dope the melee looks about as even a proposition as we have seen in some time. Books Golf Pla “The Pit.”’—T “The Water s Should Read. Hole.”—Stanley. A three-ring circus is one thing.
