He says 80 himself and so does Dapper Jack Kearns, former pilot of Jack Demp- sey, present manager of Mickey ‘Walker and now Leonard’s comeback mentor on a five-year contract. Kearns launched the _ballyhoo ‘Thursday for Leonard with the state- ment that Benny would do everything from “defending” the lightweight crown he relinquished in 1925, to middleweight honors among the Present crop of gladiators. Before he was introduced last night at the Slattery-Rosenbloom fight, Leonard admitted he weighed 149, two pounds over the welterweight limit and 14 pounds more than the lightweight limit which Benny was having difficulty making as far back | as 1923. On this basis, the prospect that Leonard again will mix in light- weight company, is so remote as to be invisible. Shorn of most, if not all the for- tune he accumulated as one of the smartest and most popular ringmen Contest Enters Match-Play Sec- | . of his day, Leonard's desire to recoup | financially was believed a prime fac- tor in his decision to return to the ring.

Pervi, dusky twirler for the visitors, struck out 13 batters. Klein and Leitz, who worked for the locals, each retired one man by the strike out route. Never in danger, the Wolverines hit safely in every inning. Bismarck's fielding left much to be desired with 10 errors chalked against them as against three for the visitors. Leitz was on the mound for the lo- cals during most of the game with Klein pitching a part of one inning.
