"The 13th CHAIR"
"Harbin Wonder Boy" to Meet Kid Vincente Manila, Feb. 22.
Andre Shelaeff, 18-year-old Russian welterweight champion of the Orient, will defend his title against Kid Vicente, powerful Filipino slugger, on March 5, it was announced to-day.
The freckle-faced Russian signed papers to-day for the second defence of his newly won crown after accepting a challenge hurled at him by the "Cebu Caveman," as Vicente is popularly known.
Although Shelaeff was originally scheduled to oppose Young Alde, the match was shelved because of the fact that the Russian had already beaten the aged Filipino in easy manner and had fought against him on several occasions in Shanghai. To these reasons was added the factor of Alde having acted as trainer to the young Russian.
