KAUFMAN DEFEATS TENDLER
IN WIND-UP AT OLYMPIA A. A.;
O'KEEFE WINS FROM REDDY
Lew's Nintli Inning
R'ally Fails to Over
, come Benny's Early
. Advantage
By ItOBEUT W. MAXWELL
BENNY Knufmnn mado eooiI jls threat
at tho Olympla last night when ho de
feated Low Tendler In six Blashlns stan
zas In tho wind-up.
Benny accomplished
sC-. T-v his foul purnoso In
gPggjfc '-A tho presenco of somo
BUUU onioOKers unu
chortled with un
canny glee when tho
deed was finished.
Mr. Kaufman 'won
by ft city block pos
Blbty a couple of city
blocks thereby dem
onstrating once moro
that a husky fighter
has a chanco against
a lean, narrow, tall
boxer. Too bad Frank
Moran did not see
tho performance before-
ho played sec
H & u
n. w. maxwbli.
ond to Wlllard a week ago.
It was a fast, sensational duet, and tho
cash and other customers keenly felt tho
cxtrcmo oxcltcmont. They became so In
terested that few left tho arona until tho
final bell ended hostilities. And It's n
safo bet that thoy would have remained
through six moro rounds.
Rally Comes Too Late
Tendler put on a nlnth-lnnlng hatting
rally, but couldn't scoro enough runs to
win. Kyen Benny Knuff, to say nothing
of Ty. Cobb, would have had a hard tlmo
getting away with It. Kaufman took tho
lead at tho start, held It until tho closing
nesslon nnd then breezed undor tho wlro
with lots to spare. Ho paid no attention
to Low's long right Jab, got In close and
battled his way to victory via tho I3at
tllng Nelson-route Ills whirlwind attack
bothered Low considerably, nnd he did
not solvo It until It wnn too lato.
Denny virtually won tho bout In tho
first round, when ho rushed Tendler nil
over tho ring, landed many hard rights
nnd lefts to tho body and had Low hang
ing on beforo tho conflict wna one mlnuto
old. Tendler did not like that body pun
ishment nnd began to drop his guard to
protect himself. Ho did this twice and
It nlmost proved his undoing. Tho second
tlmo ho lowered his hantli Benny rushed
him to tho ropes and landed a hard right
smash to tho Jaw. Tho blow landed flush
nnd shook Tondlor considerably. Lew foil
into n clinch and weathered tho storm, but
It was a nnrrow CFcnpe.
It was this blow that defeated Tendler.
From then on until tho sixth round Lew
was on tho defensive nnd nllowcd Benny
to pllo up a big lead. The tall battler
opened up a trlflo In tho second, but his
rally was stopped by another right hook
to tho jaw and again ho drew Into his
shell. Kaufman then forced tho fighting
nnd Lew protected himself with his long
right Jab which sometimes landed.
Benny Follows Instructions
Benny kept close to his man, evidently
following his Instructions to tho letter.
Adam Hyan was his chief advisor, and It
was Adnm who planned tho winning bat
tle. Tho noted trainer did the thinking
and nil Kaufman had to do was fight.
Tendler did well In tho sixth round and
easily held Benny at a reasonable dis
tance. IIo found that his right jab had
somo vnluo and worked It beautifully.
Had Low started his rally In tho fourth
act Instend of the last there would, have
been a different story to tell. As It was,
ho showed what ho could do and probably
will do better If ho meets Kaufman again.
Kddlo O'Kccfo mado his first appear
ance In tho club slnco he boxed for noth
ing n couple of months ago and madd
good in tho semlwlnd-up. Kddlo clashed
with Battling Ileddy, who substituted for
Pete Hermnn, and took all of tho honors.
O'Keefo was anxious to meet Hermnn,
as ho wanted to show his superiority
ovur tho Southerner, but Beddy gavo him
a tough light nnd kept Kddle on the move
for IS minutes. O'Kccfo was In great
Bhnpo nnd won nearly every round.
Tuber Plays Nurse
Joe Tuber played nurso to Leo Flynn
Jn tho second bout, when ho put him to
sleep In tho third round. The battle wns
fast and furious while It lasted nnd the
knockout cams when least expected.
Flynn, who has been coming to the front
rapidly of late, put up a good battlo and
was handing out some healthy wallops.
Ho landed a hard right on Joo's head nnd
Tuber clinched. Flynn backed away and
rushed ngatn, swinging both arms, when
Joe's right shot out and connected with
his jaw. Then all was dark.
Young Cohen defeated Sailor Smiley In
tho curtain-raiser, but lost tho decision
when ho attempted to Indulge In perslflngo
with his opponent after the bout. Cohen
was In his corner receiving congratula
tions and Ice water, which were showered
upon him simultaneously by his Joyful
seconds, when he looked upon the floor
and saw a tooth lying all alono and do
sorted. "Ha, ha !" said Cohen. "I'm gonna play
a Joke on Smiley. Qlmmo th" 'toot' an' I'll
Blip It to th' Sailor. I must a gave him a'
awful wallop to knock out th' toot. "
Cohen Slakes Mistake
A second placed the molar In Cohen's
glove nnd the victor nmblcd across tho
ring to Smlley's corner.
"Haw, haw, haw," ho said. "Sorry you
won't be able to cat tomorrow. Had to
hand yuh a hard ono and busted one of
your teet'. Better have It fixed. Haw,"
Smlley's glove went up to his Jaw and
then he bared his teeth, smiling through
hit battered lips.
"Whatcha glvln' me?" he demanded.
"I ain't lost no toot". It's a bum toot'
anyway. Betcha lost It yourself."
Cohen turned pale. He took a hasty
Inventory of his dental furniture and

K
HALT ATHLETICS'
TRAINING TODAY
Inclement Weather Upsets
Plans of Manager Mack
on Trip North
By CHANDLER D. RlCHTElt
CHABLTCSTON, S. C, April 4. -Another
day of Idleness may bo forced upon tho
Athletics, as It rained during tho greater
part of the night nnd the forecast Is for
another storm today. If another day of
practice Bhould bo lost, tho well-laid plans
of Manager Mack will be upset com
pletely. Although many of tho regulars
who arrived at tho training camp 10 days
nftcr tho battery mon had reported, com
plain that thoy should have started work
earlier, Manager Mack has contended that
ho would havo tho team In great condi
tion for tho opening gnmo of tho Ameri
can Lcnguo Beason.
Judging by tho great Improvement
shown In tho last week at Jacksonville
one Is Inclined to bollevo that Mnck was
right, but It Is certain thnt tho team
cannot possibly start tho season physically
fit unless It Is favored by good weather.
Yesterday would not havo been a good
training day even If tho rain had not
caused tho postponement of tho first game
with tho local South Atlantic League club,
as It was chilly and a strong wind was
blowing from tho northeast.
Wind Is a greater handicap to ballplay
ers In the spring than cold wenthor,
as It Is almost Impossible for them to
persplro freely nnd get the muscles lim
bered up, tho wind cooling them oft too
quickly. Yesterday was just such a day,
and tho workout held In tho rnln after tho
gnmo had been postponed did tho pitchers
more harm than good.
If today Is lost also the regulars will not
only bo prevented from ndvnnelng, but tho
pitchers also will fall back. Malinger
Mack ovldcntly feared the barnstorming
tour, as ho told tho writer 11 few dny
beforo leaving Jacksonville that ho wished
ho had not arranged nny games, but had
decided to stay In tho Florida metropolis.
Ho said he would bo satisfied If he could
remain hero In Charleston until next Sun
day, but that ho had given his word that
tho team would nppear at Balelgh, Itlch
mond nnd Portsmouth, and would not
brenk It.
