CHAPMAN Mins HERMAN "alumna A bout which is to play an im- Dortant part in determining the next world's featherweight champion. a title vacated recently by Louis (Kid) Kaplan. will be held tonight at the Queensboro Stadium in Long Island City when Red Chapman of Boston squares of! with Babe Herman of Freeport. L. I. The bout is scheduled to go twelve rounds to a decision and to the vic- tor unquestionably will go the dis- tinction of being right among the first flight of title contenders. The men are lighting at the IZG-pound limit and both will weigh in this at- ternoon at the State Athletic Com- mission emcee. Chapman, several months ago. was officially recognized by the commis- sion as the outstanding challenger for the title then held by Kaplan. and the board instructed the (ham- pion to close terms with him. The match was signed by the Queensboro Stadium officials. but Kaplsn sub- sequently withdrew from the bout and a; the same time turned back the title to the commission on the plea That he could not make well)“- In many quarters this act was looked upon as sufficient reason for recognizing Chapman as the cham- pion at once but the commission has not taken a definite stand on the matter. However. the board an- vroved the selection of Herman as an opponent for Chapman. and In- timatcd that if the Boston boxer won and then triumphed over sev- eral other outstanding contenders for the title the champiOnshlp would be awarded to him. (‘Iiupman will enter the ring to- night a slight favorite over Herman. this sentiment in his behalf being prompted chiefly by virtue of his triumphs during the past year or so Over such boxers ns Honeyboy Edouard hlascart. Phil McGraw. Lew Paluso, Terry Martin and rev.- ernl others of more or less prom- inence. Herman, however. is generally ex- pected to give the Boston battler a great fight. His recent stirring clash with Ted Morgan, the Junior light- weight champion. has given lier- man's stock a big boost and indicat- ed that he again is fighting as well as at any time in his career. The fight. because of its import- ance to the featherweight champion- ship, has created keen interest in boxing circles and Queensboro of- ficials yesterday were preparing to accommodate a crowd that is certain to tax the capacity of the Long Island City arena.
