Battle Between Ben-
ny and Mickey Walk-
- er
NEW YORK. July 9.—Unless the
handwriting on the wall is written in
shorthand with a. lot of double-
crosses thrown in. the much discuss-
ed match between Benny Leonard
and Mickey Walker for the Welter-
weight championship of tho world
will be closed at Madison Square
Garden soon and Tex Rickard will be
the promoter. The scene of the con-
flict is to be Boyle's Thirty Acres
and the time the first or second week
in August.
Mickey “'alker. who holds the Wel-
terweight tiiile. rather tenaciously
will call on Mr. Rickard this “after-
noon and will set in at a. four-cor-
nered parley. as the politicians say.

attend are Frank Flourney. match-
maker for Rickard. and Billy Gibson.
manager of Benny Leonard. ‘
\Vhile nothing official has come
noucemcnt that Mickey “‘alker was
coming 0\er from Jersey to discuss
a DOSsiIIIQ match with Leonard. it
was burned from highly reliable
news channels that the conference
this afternoon will be in the nature
of a show-down and that Rickard
will either sign the match or wash
his hands of it for all time.
Rickard is bidding against the
Cromwell A. C. tor this bout and it
is said that he has arrived at the
final star edition of his terms. These
