Leonard was asked what ho thinks of Johnny KUbane, the man who whipped Welsh so soundly Just before Benny won tho title. "He's a grand fellow," Leonard replied, "but I feel euro I'll atop him when wo moet and It won't bo to osk him for tho tlma of tho day. I'll knock Kllbano out sure.

MORRIS MAULS MORAN; IS HEAVIEST PUNCHER Oklahoma Heavyweight Hands Out Some Heavy Bolts, Most of Which Hit Atmosphere NEW YORK, June 5. If Carl Morris and Jess Willard are to bo brought together In a bout for the heavyweight championship of the world, the flstlc publio Is In an awful nx. Morris today has tho New York news papers on his side to prove that he whipped Frank Moran In a ten-round bout at the Harlem Sporting Club, but If Moran had taken as much of a beating as tho atmos phere Carl was whipping around he would have been knocked off somewhere around the second round. Morris merely proved he can hold longer and harder than Moran. The latter proved he can punch harder. With platform and ropes groaning out their chorus of protest, the heavyweights mauled through their ten-round bout at tho Harlem Sporting Club, keeping wonderfully true to tho lines of tho mental picture drawn by those who havo been following their fortunes. It was far from nn elevat ing exhibition of tho manly art. Morris has his own peculiar style, and until some ono comes along powerful enough to stand hlcn off and punch with him he Is likely to go along winning.
