bow-r developed in this city. His rec-
'nrd as an amateur was so excellent
and his private conduct so exemplary.

patrons of boxing.
It goes without saying that W'alk-

matter of boxing skill the boys are
well matched. but Walker has a de-
ridt‘d advantage in the matter of ef-
fective hitting. I Walker is 3.3.
Kmss'n'e‘ and carries the fight to his
.opponent he should win.» but if he
inlays a defensive game he will be at
a disadvantage.
Walker began boxing when he was
716 years of age. at which time he won
lhf‘ llywcight amateur championship.
Scycral months before. he got a. job in
‘Wall Street as a. "runner." Then he
was known as Irving Walkow. his
right name. ‘When he entered the

aiouncer said: In this corner. Archie
.Walker." and the name stuck to him.
At 61 he. captured the bantam ama-
teur title and in the next two years

weight titlcholder.
As lightweight

will go in large numbers to see him
perform tonight.
Walker has had three professional
bouts thus far. winning two by knock—
out and the other by decision of ref-
eree and judges. He is exceptionally
rleier, has a pleasing style and pos-
sesses a. snappy right hand punch.

Champions Willing
To Box in Madison
Square Garden
Ni—IW’ YORK. Jan. 6.-—The action
of lluttling Levinsky and Jack Britlon
in consenting to defend their titles in
Madison Square Garden has removed
much of the unpleasant feeling en-
gendered by the refusal of Bufif. Kil-
liane. Leonard and Wilson to risk
championship bouts under the Walker
law. Levinsky will take on a good
man in Gene Tunney, who is in form
at the present time. They will meet
on January 13 and will weigh 175
pounds at 2 p. m. By conforming to
the weight of the class Levinsky will
remove the impression that he could
'no longer make the poundage of the
K‘lass.
0n the same program Fred Fulton
"will get a chance to show. whether his
claim of improved form is well based.
Fulton will box Bartley Madden. who
is a fighter if not a boxer.
