FARRELL EW YORK, Feb. 6.—Another lit tle Jewish boy, Sid Terris, a y | curly-haired youngster from the East Side tenements, where Benny Leon ard got his start, will make his su preme bid for Leonard’s vacated crown tonight in Madison Square | Garden. Sammy Mandell, good looking young Albanian, who is called a sheik for good reasons, a high school graduate and a highbrow of the ring, opposes Terris, for- ner newspaper butcher, in what | is expeeted to be the fastest and | most active contest in years, The bout ts billed simply ag a 12 | round contest between two leading aspirants for the cated by Leonard, but those who do | not bow RoW ba COME M ndell and ‘Terrie are as the appointed by the commission to en- |guge in an elimination tournament} ed decide the new champion, is form goes astray the win- bias of tonight's contest will merely th to go thru the routine of the | tournament to become crowned offi |clally ax the new world'g champion. Terris is the favorite in the betting to win, but there is more | sentiment than logic in the quar- ters and dollars that the East | Side is pooling to back their idol. Terris is the fastest thing that has ever been seen in the ring and it will be his foot speed that will win for him if he comes out the victor. |) Mandell is faster with his hands and he ean punch harder, He can't |dance and run around the ring with |the fleetness of Terris, but his speed lis more effective bécause he starts more and gets more drive in his ‘punches. Compared to anyone but tion Mandell, in our opinion, should win on points, altho he admits that 12 rounds dre not as much te his liking as 15 rounds, | Terris, he is a real whirlwind in ac. hampionship va-| | in deference to the New| | York boxing commission regard it as | | a bout for the championship. | accepted | t unanimously in boxing circles | st of the list of 16 boxers | LORSHEIM SALE REMOVAL SALE at our Pike Street Store and the CLEARANCE SALE Second Avenue Store will soon be over.
