FARRELL EW YORK 26.—The jaw of France and the ball of America will meet at the Polo groun night to decide fe rweig: lionship of the world. Hugene Criqui, with the serious ec and the oked jaw, will defe title that he won some time ith a great victory over the Johnny Kilbane, against Jobnny Dundé of the greatest little | fighters that ever swung a glove. Dundee, one of those Italians who it the poets into reveries about the hting blood of C r, will be at least the sentimental favorite. He has a tremendous following in New | York and partisans are not con- | fined to the Italian colony. Criqui proved in the Kilbane fight that he is a worthy champion and a | great fighter. He had proved it be- fore, in Europe, but Americans are skeptical about the class of fighters lon the other side who helped'to give lant French war hero of Ver- dun an impressive list of kndckouts. Dundee is, beyond doubt, one of the |greatest little fighters that ever lived. He hag been nearer to various | championships than any other fight r, with the possible ption of | Charley White, He has battled them all, and in most of his fights he was for se pounds and pounds of weight to his opponents Various opinions have been fressed on the outcome of the f one that should carry ase he has met them both and he knows both Johnny Kilbane, mpion, victor, c Criqui will have on his hands. “Criqul is says, “He ke July r it on ced to away former feather- leans toward Dun. and he predicts that the fight of his life great fighter,” Kilbane ps coming in all the time and he is always hitting. He hides behind an upraised should much after the style of Dempsey, and he is hard to reach on the jaw. He is not an extremely clever fighter he has a heart that keeps him g back all the time.

That French boy can counter. “Against Dundee, Criqui will have Dundee He is about the ‘fightenest’ boxer in the | business, and when he leads he will miss like I did. When Criqui | cocks his right hand he will not find | Dundee standing in the way of it, like jhe caught me.

However, against a man his own weight, the little Italian may get more results from his punches. Criquit hit. That is a sure thing. Against Dundee, the punches of the Frenchman will not be so effective, however, and the Italian will be mov- jing when they get over and punches are always lost on a-moving target. Dundee knows more than the Frenchman, because he has been fighting much longer and against op- ponents of class that Criqui hag never had the opportunity to wise himself up on. Nine fights with Benny Leonard, in all of which he at least held his own, are testimonials of the real class of Dundee, and when he was able |to keep away from the sharp shoot- ing right hand of Leonard, he surely ought to be able to stay away from Criqui, who cocks his right-handers back much like Georges Carpentier. Dundee has been fighting fora long time, and {t may be that he has passed his best day, but there is no reason to feel sure of that. He has always been a clean liver and he has ne ing-out necessity of making weight. He will have to trim off a few pounds for Criqui, but it ought not hurt him. see Roe of the winner, it will be a popular victory, While Dundee has thousands of partisan admirers, they are all of the who respect and admire Criqui for his war record. ‘The Frenchman was almost over- whelmed by the ovation that fell upon him when he won the title from Kilbane. Of course, Kilbane was not everly popular in New York, but there were tear-dimmed eyes among the shouter's, and it was plain to seo that the boy who had survived a shell at Verdun and lost half of his jaw went to the hearts of a fight crowd that is always a little chicken. hearted, even under its rough-coated MI oun oi DIAMONDS American Jewelry Co. 821 SECOND AVE, Established 1889 iron % er been bothered with the burn-—~
