FIRST RING PURSE
And Low Probably Will Get
$50,000 When He Meets
Leonard August 12
IS BIG MONEY-GETTER
By LOUIS II. .IAFFE
A puro of $17.50 nnd thnt of ?.r0.
000 is quite n difference .$40,082,50 to
be specific. Thnt will be the compari
son of lucre earned by Lew Tendler,
former newsboy nnd now contender for
the lightweight chnmplonslp, by the use
of nnture's weapons.
Seldom does n boxer get., us much as
S17.50 for his mnlden appearance in the
ring. Usually it Is nothing nnd some
times a $5 note is considered n lot of
mono. But Tendler was forced into
the fistic game in n way and ho
wanted to be well paid for it. Hence
his large purse for his initial appear-
; mice in the ring.
Tendler is not being guaranteed as
much as n thin dime for his coming
match with .Benny Leonnrd, lightweight
champion, to be the laost Important
battle of Lew's suciTSHful listic career.
1 When he enters the ring against the
title-holder here August 12, Tendler will
box entirely on a percentage buslM. And
It Is probable that Promoters Taylor
and (iiinnls will hand over $50,000, at
least, for the contender's end.
Eight j ears ngo Tendler. one of the
few boxer.s using his real name for
pugilistic proclivities, was a Mircc'.sful
newsboy. He wns "boss" of one of
the busiest conmxs in the city nt
Fifteenth and Market streets nnd his
partner, Phil (ilassman. Lew's present
uinunger, reigned supreme with hli
dallies ncros" (he street.
In those dajs Tendler was a rabid
fight fan, and so was Mickey Brown, a
friend of his. Often they wrangled nnd
debated over the merits of different
ucnntcu over tlie merits of Ullicrcnt
glovcmen. nnd finally Mickey informed
Lew that he was going to take up

retaliated Glavsman. "and we can prove
It by selling tickets." Tendler got his

Furthermore. Lew did as he had
threatened. Alhtough u living "string

ninety pounds, Tendler went along and
won in six rounds from Brown. That
was the beginning of the southpaw's
career In the ring.
