Lynch Is New York's Pride and Jersey Roots for Buff Honors for Which Little Men Meet Have Changed Hands Four Times in Two Years. By Vincent Treanor. T will bo New York vs. New Jersey' 1 to-night, with the whole world A listening In and tho bantamweight championship danglin: Invisibly from somcwhero between tho arc lights and tho ring flooi up at the 22Gth Streot and Broadway Velo drome. Johnny Hurt, by whom the skceter State swears, puglllstlcally speaking, will stake tho more Import ant of hlo two titles (he Is also the .American flyweight champion) In a flftecn-roui.J bout with Joe 1 ynch, perhaps the most popular of New York's llstlc stars from tho stand point of the rank and fliers. And f.omethlns sensational Is going to happen. Joo has no moneyed Interests In his following, no Wall Street celebrities. .Thcro nie no "gentlemen, scholars 'or dudes" In tho turnouts for him when he fights, but thcro are thou sands of "the man In the street" who whoop It for him when he lands 'n left Jab c shootj his right for the chin. That, perhaps. Is why the pro moters to-night wisely made tin prices for the bout from $1 to $7, with 10,000 good seats on sale at 2 to let let 'Joo l.ynch's friends In. Joe's pals and ev ry kid on tho cai side claims to do one of them can't af ford hlfalutin $10 and $20 tickets that Be..ny Leonard's foi.owers will ingly purchase when he fights, but they'll go without something to h? jthero when Joe's on the card and .seats don't cost a month's rent where they live. With Buff and his followers It's much tho same. He Is tho Jersey Idol, and everybody In Mayor Hague's -Cabinet down to the r iwsboys In the street art) '"dth Johnny in person and In spirit whenever he pulls on the tnltlR tn do battle. They'd no to wal with the Emplro State over him if it came to cases. If thero Is anything - the local pride Btuff wo read about and often regard as bunk, It was never more honestly applicable than In connection with Lynch and Buff. Both aro tiu' Terry McGoverna of these days, and Terry's name in his day was a ho--?.. hold word. There sure Is a human Interest tinge to their meeting. BOUT HAKES SOME NEW HISTORY. And talking about prices for seats, as we started to up above, It might Just as well bo recorded right hero that this Is iho first time In ring history within our memory at least, that championship battle has ever en staged for the admission price of $1 vlth th very best seats in tho 26,000 arena at 7. Doesn't sound like Tex Rlckard at all. One would think that Charley Doesserick waa putting on the Bhow at his East 24th Street Pio neer Club. It Is so odd considering modern day commercialism in boxing that it is worthy of note. However, the fight itself is tlin thing and there's no use attempting to high tono It by referring to to night's affair as a boxing match. It's going to be tho genuine t -'-lo, ac cording tp all signs. Neither Buff or Lynch has reached tho "business men's" stage, where they hold their opponents up. Both are little fighting men, gamo to the core, to whom the glory of tho thing means something aside from what they may ret In dol HOW CHAMPION BUFF AND LYNCH COMPARE Johnny Buff. 34 Age . 5 ft. 3 in Height 112 Weight Joe Lynch. 23 ,...E ft. 6 In. 118 14 1-2 in Neck IT, In. .34 In Chest Normal .35 1-4 In. 3.1 3-4 In. .Chest Expanded. .3S 1-4 In. 13 1-2 In Biceps 11 1-2 In. 18 1-2 In Thigh 18 In. 13 1-4 In Calf 12 1-2 In. 28 In Waist 30 in. 6 3-4 In Wrist 7 In. 11 In Forearm 11 In. 05 in Reach 07 In. after his old honors, but he Isn't do- ng what Ketchcl did when he mot Billy Papko a second time. Papke had knocked Stanley out, and Ketch" made history by landing the K. O. on Papko In their return battle Tho situation Is different to-night. Lynch and Buff havo never met and is that fact that carries a certain appeal when one weighs tho possi bilities of to-night's meeting of these oy torrlcrs. Lynch is tho favorlto among the betting following of the scrappers probably on the assumption that he will bo tho heavier. They aro to weigh In at 118 pounds at 2 o'clock mil Buff Is not expected to scale much ilggcr than he would be If ho were Kittling for his flyweight champion ship. iiareiy nas a cnaiienger been a favorite over the tltleholdcr. Leonard was the choice at the no-declslon bout wherein ho took tho lightweight title from Freddy Welsh, and Dempsey was about an even choice with Wll lard, with no takers, when tho heavy weight championship changed hands it Toledo. Theso are notablo ln- ifances aside from to-night's condi '.Ions. Lynch' recent defeat of Midget Smith, when he outsmarted tho game and willing Midget, Is taken by the wiseacres to mean that Joe is again at the top of his form. Ho has liecn training in the open at Saratoga for weeks, whereas Buff Is returning to tho ring after an enforced layoff of months, during which ho underwent some surgical cutting for an affec tlon which threatened the loss of an arm. Johnny, however. Is fit and ready and besides, being a natu.al littlo fighter, merits consideration from even tho moat rabid of Lynch supporters. No matter how the bout goes It will carry tho earmarks of the real thing. w j mu.. .tsar Champion Hasn't Heard Any thing From Pittsburgh Pro moter Regarding Greb.

It's funny about that Wills match. I have submitted a set ot articles to Paddy Mulllns. Wllls'a manager.
