Leonard Discovers Tendler Is No “Dub” : Duluth Greets Champion Sculler CHAMPION IS THE WINNER : BY VERY NARROW MARGIN Challenger Gets Early Lead, But Weakens in Latter Stages of Twelve-Round Engagement, -and Writers Award Verdict to Benny. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, July 28—Benny Leonard still holds the world light- weight boxing thampionship, but he realizes that Lew Tendler, Philadelphia left-hander, is neither a “second rater” nor a “dub. Champion since 1917, when he bowled over English Freddie Welsh, Leonard walked out of the great pine bowl on, Boyle's Thirty Acres last night with the crown perched far back on his head. TFendler put it there. Had the challenger the stamina to hold the lead he gained in the early tounds ne would have knocked it off. Leonard ‘won by the palest of avades. The bout went the full twelve rounds, and under the law of New Jersey there was no official decision. The verdict is that of a majority of the newspaper writers at the ringside.

'EW YORK, July 28 —\¥ell, it turned out that Justice Swayze of the New Jersey supfeme court was right when he denied the motion of the committee of Jersey parsons to disallow the Leonard- Tendler bout on the ground that it was to be a prize fight. The justice knew more than the parsons did—or else he was a better guesser. Any- way, the guy who would get the meeting between Benny Leonard and Lew Tendler on Boyle's Thirty Acres last night confused with an old- €ime prize fight would be likely to confuse the annual summer maneuvers of the Atlantic fleet off Guantanamo with tie well known battle of Jutland. ng match, all right.

He had all his old ac- curacy of aim in the latter rounds, all his lightning footwork but, as they say on Allen, his wallops had no “snap.” He came through the bout with more than enough points to win the referee’s decision, which, in spite of the Jersey law on the subject, was elivered by Harry Ertle in a New ork morning newspaper. At the end both men were a bit tired, but otherwise in perfect shape to enjoy the remainder of the even- ing with whatever had been planned in the way of diversion after the fight. Benny had a cut eye, which came from Tendler's head, he says, but which most of us figure came from Lew's fist in the first round, and a missing false tooth, which Tendler thoughtlessly knocked out of thé champion’s face in the second round, probably never thinking that Benny had paid good money for his dentist to come up to Budd lake and put the record crowd for the season at Union Park.
