New York, May 14.—Benny Leon- ard, world's lightweight champion, will defend his title in a bout against | Rocky Kansas, Buffalo lightweight, June 6. The match was definitely closed last night at a conference be- tween Billy Gibson, Leonard's man- ager, and Dave Griswold, Jersey City promoter. The boxers will clash in a twelve-round contest which will be iconducted at the Harrison, N. J. base- {ball park, once the home of the old Federal league club. Whether Leonard will make recognized lightweight limit, pounds, is problematical. only detail in connection with the match, not definitely agreed upon. In- dications are that the titleholder will lelect to enter the ring at catch- weights. Manager Gibson intimated this much last night when announc- ing the completion of plans for the bout. Regardless of Leonard's weight, however, the match will be a cham- pionship affair, in which the title can change hands in the event that Kansas cnters the ring at his normal weight, which is under 135 pounds. Under those circumstances the Bison City Italian would acquire the title it he knocked out Leonard or if the champion were to be disqualified for fouling. the 135 STARS FOR BROWN, and Aids in De- 2 Scores Two Hol feating Wesleyan, 6 to 2.
