LEONARD MEETS HARD OPPONENT IN TENDLER in- Philadelphia Southpaw _Gets .bnng Waited Chance at Lightweight Crown on Friday Night. On next Friday night at Shibe Park, Philadelphia, Champion Benny Leonard will be called upon to, defend his title dgainst Lew Tendler of Philly, the foremost challenger for the light- weight crown. The battle will be of 12 rounds. There are few around these parts who are willing to view the bout in any other way than a victory for Benny. It must be admitted, however, that Lew will prove to be a hard nut for the champion to crack. 1 Over in Waterbury there can be found plenty of enthusiasm over the coming Kaplin-Lewis affair which will Be held at Meriden on Friday night. The Sil- ver City boy's recent victory over Sammy Waltz has boosted his stock considerably. Lewis is a clever two handed boxer, and is credited with hav- ing a fine old sock in either mitt. Champion Pcte Herman and ' Young Montreal have been matched for a bout in New Orleans, on Labor Day. It will be . ahother of those no decision at- fairs, which Herman, while champion before, made himself a participant in many of these safe kind of bouts for title holders. Montreal has two Boston decisions over Herman. Champion Johnny Kilpane has been lured from his den of retirement and has signed articles to box Danny Frusn at Cleveland on September 17. Johnny will receive practically all the money, and Frush must kayo the champion to gain the featherweight title, a feat few believe him capable of accomplish- ing.

James Corderry to be coach of the Yale crews next year, and the nomination will be acted upon favorably at a meeting of the graduate crew committee and athletic board of control of the university, to be held soon. Gibson sailed for Europe the day after Yale beat Harvard on the and while it was known that the man who filled the place of Guy Nickalls, the disposed English coach, had made a big hit with all Yale men because he gave Yale a winning eight with only two weeks to do it, his nomination has Just been received. The naming of a coach is entirely up to the captain of any of the four major sport teams at Yale, and as a matter of form the se- lection is formally ratified by a board of control. MAY BUY PHILS ‘Wealthy Pittsburgh Oil Men Are Said to he Negotiating for National League Franchise. Philadelphia, Aug. 8.—Reports that a group of Pittsburgh oil magnates were negbtiating for the purchase of the Philadelphia National League Baseball Club are not confirmed here.

Chicago, Aug. 8.—All Chicago is wondering at the pepper of the Cubs under Bill Killefer, their new manager. Chicago is wondering why Killefer him- self and the rest of the local outfit did not see fit to show similar enthusiasm, alertness and dash under Evers. It is wondering whether the fault lay with Evers, or whether his charge that some of his players ‘“‘laid down' on the job is true. At any rate, the situation is an in. teresting one, and Evers is the sorest man in forty-eight states. Evers is sore not only because he was discharg- ed but because of the way in which it was done. It was given out that: he had suffered a nervous breakdown. ‘When seen yesterday he looked quite normal. “I was not treated fairly, but there is no sense in complaining at this stage,’’ he raid. ‘I hope Killefer does better. However, players who quit un- der a manager to get him out are no better than players who throw games. 1 am by no means through with base- ball. I am going to New Hampshire to join my family for a while.'” * ARENA IS LEASED Yale Secures Place Where Hockey Team May Hold Practice Hereafter —Boxing To Continue There. New Haven, Aug. 8.—Yale’s hockey team will enjoy the unique experience of having ice to practice on during the coming winter, for the university has completed negotiations for the lease of the Arena for a long term of years. The Arena was formerly one of the largest ice skating palaces in the east, but was never a financial success as such. Five years ago the ice making pipes were ripped up and the place was converted into a dance hall and roller skating rink. Prize fights were also held there and it was an ideal place for them, as over 4,000 seats surrounded the big floor space. 2 It is understood that Yale will again make an ice skating rink of the place and will control the entire property, one of the largest sporting arenas between New York and Boston. For five years, because of the freakish winters New Haven has experienced, there has been little ice for hockey practice here, the Yale seven being compelled to go to Philadelphia to get in shape for the big games with Harvard and Princeton. This was a costly and unsatisfactory move, but it had to be done. SETS NEW RECORD Des Moines Infielders Have a Very Busy Sunday !
