Leonard has never been extended. There is more truth than poetry in th jtalement He has been in some pretty tight places, but, nevertheless, he has never been forced to show every- thing he knows.

(Right) Lew Tendler is par- ticularly fond of gardening and watching — things that grow, and this accounts for his partiality for hard farm labor as part of his training course. He is here shown shoving a wheel cultivator. . /SBOY, WHOM PRESENT LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION COACHED INTO BATTLER, WILL TRY NEXT WEEK TO WREST TITLE FROM LEONARD, the best of st pe for the contest.
