|GOLF WAR MAY BE ___ | RESULT OF ASKING | | OUIMET TO COMPETE For First Time as Regular Ty Is Below .300 | Apparently Freddie failed to give Leonard his due. In the first encounter between | two, Freddfe went into the} ring out of shape and took a nice Jacing. In the second melee he} was in condition and trimmed Renny in an equally effictent man- ner. This victory no doubt was the undoing of Welsh. He evident- ly figured that having once given Leonard the beating he did ft was not much of a job to do it again. eee WELSH recognized the fact that he was slipping. After his sorry showing with Johnny Kilbane, it is clatmed Freddie retired to his dressing oom and shed numerable tears be- cause of the poor fight he put up against the featherweight wizard. After all is said and done, the Britisher should not be so severely censured. It is true that he played| the fox and gathered tn a lot of} coin, but he also gave Charley) White and Richie Mitchell a chance at his crown, besides his three fights with Leonard. Weish well knew at the time he took on Leonard that he was meet- @ most dangerous man in the * eight division. eee A BIT OF REAL sportsmanship that many present at the first night's bouts of the Far Western championships, may have over | looked, was staged by De Witt Van Court, veteran instructor of the Los pet up a winning fight, altho it _ Was a close one.
