Benny Leonard Training at Coney
'TENDLER MIGHT GO
TO SLEEP IN FIRST
SA YS BENNYLEONARD
Titleholder Believes Southpaw Contender Is Made to
Order for Him and Is Confident Match Won't
Go More Than Four Rounds
r
fN THIS qnlot, ("rcludcil illnjip, built
murmuring, fonm.v waves of thn ocean, Hcnny I.cnnnrd is training for the
ipott important battle nf his career, which takes nlncn in Philadelphia erarth
one neck from tonight The lightweight rhnmplnn is hnnl nt work in thin
rural section of Nets York, where lie is absolutel olone cave for about 100,000
Tlsitors rneh day, nnd nothing disturbs tlie serene tranquillity of the Hceno
except thousand' of ambitious electric pianos, hard-working mcrrj Bo-rounds,
ithootlng galleries and raucous monologues by lcnther-lunged gentlemen extolling
the virtues of numerous side shows scattered nlong the main and side streets
of this aforesaid quiet, secluded village.
It is an Ideal spot for a training camp. A steam riveter training for a
championship contest would bo passed without notice, nnd ipii n euj prac
ticing on a cornet could get bj without n calldown. Therefore, Leonard Is
having a nice, peaceful time down hero while training for his coming contest
with Lew Tendier.
Denny has been here a week and apparently doesn't mind it. He works
out every day In his exclusive trnining cninp, where nobody except thirty or
forty other boxers ore training. The gates are barred to nil spectators except
those who purchase tickets at the front gate. Xot more thnn a thousand ever
re present when the champion goes through his dallj stunts.
The camp, which also Is l.uovvn as the l'alace of Joj for some reason
or other, hides on the main street and Is hard to find except for the huge
lgn in front nnd the two high towers, pnlntpd brcntnitiElt in broad red and
white stripes As the Mead.t stream of tlsitors flows bv two gentlemen who
had curl.v training on Ice wagons tell the world about the added attraction
nd the price of admission. Outside of that the 1'nlact' of Joy is an cxtrcmeh
difficult place to find.
JKD Denny is enjoying himatlf every minute. He says fo himself.
May Win in First, Says Leonard
117E VISITED the Palace of Joy yesterday afternoon, and after refusing an
Invitation to ride on the roller coaster, turning a deaf car to tho sincere
pleadings of the manager of the shooting gallery and declining, gently but
firmly, to go into the s-trlmmlng pool, managed to .run the gauntlet and locate
Leonard In his dressing room. This Is the first time It has been done under
two hours, nnd your correspondent was warmly congratulated.
Tho champion was all ready to step Into the nrenn and do his best to
ruin what might have been n perfect nfternoon for three sparring pnrtners.
He was clad in royal purple, n-mnke-up which adds local color to n monarch
of all he surveys. Seated on the edge of n nibbing table nnd swinging his
legs bccomlngb, Ttemij uncorked some conversation regarding nnd pertaining
to the big fuss which will be nil over one week from tonight.
"I have been reading about Tendier," he said, "and noted with Interest
that he expects to knock me loose from the championship. I can't see how
he can do this, because I will beat him to it. I am going to do all of the
knocking out on the nljht of August 3'J, nnd I never make rn-h statements
Tendier is made to order for me, and I wouldn't be surprised if he went to
sleep in the first round. If not, he will not be able to stick until the end
of the fourth.
"This Is one fight that is not annoying me. I never wns so confident
and I know 1 shall win bv a knockout."
Manny Seaman, his trainer; .Take Weinsteln, the well-known I'lillndel
phian, and AVil'ie Leonard, brother of the champion, nodded theli heads
seriously, which meant that Benn.t scored a clean-cut ictorj in the ocal solo
They agreed with him. biciu-e it always is the bet pollcv to agree with a
champion In his dressing room.
I XRVRR tern m
alien
eady am neatly dotcn to
pound to take off m the next iceek,
I shall be strong and ready to go
night." .
Champ Docs Nothing but Box
TnCX the champion jumped off the table and headed the parade to the
arena where the three sparring partners awaited his arrival with fear and
trembling. Hennv did no shndow boxing. He did not skip the rope. He
didn't punch the bag. but stepped right Into the ling nnd stnited to box
His first opponent was Sammv Berne, a port -sided lightweight from
New York. Sammv stands with his right foot nnd right nrm extended, labs
with the right and tries to land with his left. He boxed fast In the firt
round, keeping Leonard on the inoo, but slowed down when Benny staggered
him with n left hook to the jaw and a right to the body.
Sammy also was on the verge nf n ojage in the second when a right
caught him flush on the thin Onlv the heavy boxing gloves saved him. How
ever, the kid boxed fnt and kept shooting his right, but Bennv had no
trouble in getting out of the tvnv
The next southpaw was entitled Mike Carrier, of Chicago Mike Is a
heavy welterweight, half a foot taller than the champion nnd packs a heftv
wallop. He tore into Bennv in the first round and gave a great exhibition of
boxing. He had Leonard on the defensive for a couple of minutes, but near
the end of the staiua Hennj socked him on the nose nnd made him be good.
LROX.XRI) med a body attack m the ireond round and had fike
cnrceninq about the ring uirn time trm railed. Thn trm a very
fait icotUaut and llenny showed up xciy teell.
Leonard Proves He Is in Shape
rTUIK finale was stnged b Samnij Sihlff, the elongated lightweight from
Harrlsburg Schift, let it be remembered, was first intioduced to a Phila
delphia audience by none other than Sammy Ilnhn, one of the greatest fight
managers ever boosted bv Snmm.v Hahn Sammv hail him until it came time
to collect the remuneration, nnd then Schlff said he never had n tnanngcr anil
saved some expense
Schiff boxed n fast round with I.eonaid, using what he believed to be
Tcndler's style. N'obndt would recognise it. even Tendier himself. However.
lie stepped In nnd out. jabbing with the right nnd shooting the left at the
body, making Benny cover up and step out of danger The champion studied
very move closely, evidently prepnring a defense ngnmst the stnr southpaw.
Then he started a bodv attack and Sammv was all washed up
In the second round Leonard started to land with his light He hit
straight and few blows missed His judgment of distance wns marvelous and
Schlff was groggy at the end Those six rounds ended the dav's work
Benny perspired freclv nt the end, but was not breathing hard He
proved beyond question of a doubt that he is in good condition, because he
boxed three fresh men nnd nt the end was traveling faster than at the start.
TUR ehampion uould like to bar three or four founds telth hh
sparring partners, but finds that they air all m at the end of the
second. In fait, thr parlnns trould like it jutt as iccll if only on
round teas boxed. Benny rannot rut loair on them berausr they
cannot stand a hard uallop Hoicrier, the boys are fast and givo
llenny a lot of difcnsne uork tenen he cares to take it.
Working Earnestly, but Not Much
BKNXY Is training in earnest now, but doesn't seem to bo doing much
work. Yesterdny morning he was out on the rond for an limn He stnrted
at 8 A. M. nnd came hick to the hotel nt 0 After n shower and n rub-down
he ate a hearty breakfast and loafed around until it enme time to box In the
afternoon.
Last night after a big dinner he walked on the Boardwalk for an hour and
retired at 10 I M
"It don't need much work to get into condition." he said "I will take
off weight graduallv and save inv strength for the night of the fight. I do
not Intend to burn myself out in the trnining camp "

YANKS HOLD FIRST
PLACE BY A POINT
Loso to Tigers, but Washington
Drops Indians Twice Cobb
and Ruth Duel
DUGAN IN OUR MIDST
For the second time since last Mnv
the New York Yankees arc in first
place and the Cletelnnd Indians In the
position below. The Oothamltcs hold
the lend by the slenderest bt slender
margins, one point.
It all happened yesterday and was
not due In nny part to the playing of
the Huggmon, but to Ihe wonderful
bnseball displayed by MeBride's Wash
Ingtonlnns. All they did yesterdny was
to take two games from the Indians,
Walter Johnson nnd firlckson doing the
mound dut so effectively that the
Spokesmen were vanquished in each
contest by tho same score.
It has been said that the Yanks took
tho lead without much effort on their
nnrt. Mntter of fact, they were wal
lope.d with considerable force by Trus
Raymond Cobb and his mates.
Tenth for Senators
Getting back to Washington U might
be mentioned that the double triumph
Testerday made it ten In a row for the
fast-flying Senntors. This is n .tear nf

other teams having engaged In tho

Walter Johnson. In the first game,
proved that he still has lots of good
baseball left In his system by holding
tho Indians to seven hits whilo his
teammates were banging out nn even
dozen off Stannic Coveleskic, the star
ironman twlrlcr of the world's cham
pions. For the third successive time the
Cardinals downed the men of McGraw.
This timo young Pcrtlca, twirling his
best game of the senson, whitewashed

making a single tally off Art Nchf, the
mitch-talued twirler.

Dngnn nnd the Fans
From the local angle the most im
pottant news this morning Is the telling
of Dugan's triumphnut lctum jestor
day nfternoon after his vacation of n
week. Joe was lerelved b the fans
like a prodigal nnd wns cheered to the
echo when he appealed on the field
for fielding pradiie. When he came
to the plate on his first time up he wns
wildl nrclaimed by the crowd and
when he singled sharply lo right was
accorded all the honors due to a hero.
"I am glad In be lnik with the Ath
letics again." said Joe after the game.
"I expect to stay a while this time," he
said, smiling "Mntk and I had quitP
a long tnlk shortly after I arrived here
and we arc nil squate.
"I nm glad that the fans received me
so well this afternoon, nnd you can
count on me doing some great playing
from now on. Did you notice thnt mv
hitting was better today? The rest
must hate done me some good," and
Joe winked.
Mnck was wreathed in smiles when
asked about his disappearing third
sat ker. "I think Joe is here to stn.t
this time, and I know thnt tte will not
hate 10 contend nnv more with his
leaving the team. There seems to be
some surprise that Dtisan was in the
line-up becauso his inse was rcporlcd
to Commissioner Lnndis and to Presi
dent Johnson.
"I had nn inkling that Dugan would
letuin todut. nnd to be rend for every
evcntunlltv I ttnctl headquarters t Ill's
morning and they told me thnt inns,
much as Dugan had not plaed witli
any othei club, that it was up to me
to use mv judgment as to whether I
should reinstate him. And so I told
him to go out and play. I havo pins
tried a line on him thnt might make him
think twice the next time before lie
lenps.
"The two Walker bo.ts are feeling
good again, so is Frank Welch, while
the remainder of the team is in better
shape than for some time. With Dugan
in nt third base we should start win
ning Rome games "
