Leo Kelly, promising young 1s-

[and middleweight. returned re_ cenrly from n campaign of the Eastern United States where he participated in ‘some 12 odd bouts with highly successful results. He gaptured the Golden Gloves title in Albany‘ and was awarded a medal in recognition of being ad- judged the outstanding fighter of the tournament. i 9+ d‘

Kelly dropped into the office ‘or a brief time last night and ap- peared in the pink of condition. Never a boy to talk about his ex- iiloits in the ring it was difficult ;o obtain much information. but lt> dollars to doughnuts; that the young Islander made good.

ri- + + +

Leo's stay on the Island will be of short duration. In a few necks time he is going to Moncion

ivhere he will train under the management of Mike Shea. now tiaiitiling Kid‘ Hart. Kelly's prog-

rrss will be watched with interest. l-lc is a son of Mr. George Kelly of this city.

And while on the subject of boxing the coming McInnis-Lantz biintam title scrap promises to be a ding dong battle. Both game- sters. the champion and challen- ger. should ‘furnish fireworks be- fore the bout is over. They may be little fellows in stature but both carry TNT in either mitt and know every move inside the squar- ed circle.

=+ + =F

And don't think that champion Liuiiz won't be out to retain that title. The last time they met he lust the decision to McInnis. Lantz at the time thought he had the night won and didn't hesitate in saying so—it wasn't in the form of an alibi-and on the night of the 14th he will be out to back up his statement not only to his oivn satisfaction but also to the satis- faction of fans that doubted his ability the last time out.

Laiitz is training hard at his Halifax quarters for the scrap but lic won't have a, thing on Mclnnis in this regard as the clever young City mitt. slingci‘ is rapidly round- lng into the best shape of his car- ecr.

With the proposed date o! the hcavyiveight championship tussle nearing. champion James Brad- dock's record may be of interest. : Braddock has 26knock-

s' 22 decisions.5 draws. 5 no-decisioiis. 2 non-contests. 1 knockout defeat and 20 decision beatings in 8i iussles prior to his wmning the title from Maxie Baer in June. i935.

Once again the grand little bat- llcr of the lightweights is entering an important fight on the short 2nd of the betting. Lou Ambers s a 3 to i favourite to whip Can- roneri tonight at Madison S are Gardens and tht-reby retain his title.

4- + + -l-'

But Canzoneri can never be counted out of the running. He has a habit of urmetting ulie dope and this is wcll borne out when it ls recalled that after takfingater- riiic lacing from Jimmy ltlctarnin ln the first. round of a fight not so long ago he came back to win the decision in a startling upset. Perhaps history will repeat itself tonight and thus add another bright page to Canzonerfs record- book.
