',T BW TKNDLEIl wen the clinmienliip of Sniler Frecdmuu nt MniliMin
1 XJ Square (Inrden Inst night. The title ii elcnr-cut, but It took n Ions time
te decide it. The local southpaw took four thorough and complete slmls at
'1t; but It was net declared unanlmeu" tintll after fifteen rounds of battling.
(A pair of judge and n referee who diil net wear smoked glawycti drcldcd in
favor of our here. Needle te say. our here was much pleased. lie hud
every right te he.
' New that that's settled, everybody must admit that Tendler I the best
.lightweight in the bunine- with the ieible exception of llenny Leenard.
'AVc soy this net because we are inclined te beast, but becnule it I the real.
regular and proper dope. All you have te de is rigger it out and ligger never
lie. Perhaps Tendler and Leenard never will meet te decide which Is the
better or worse. If such is the cae. T,ndl,,r will remain the next be-t light-
weight without" risking bodily injury.
Last night' battle contained two fairly geed rounds and thirteen which
might he called superfluous. In the v.'iititl stanzd the bold and hearty -ailer
'found It difficult te keep the llenr from hitting him in the bad:, and after
four trips downward solved the intricate problem. He remained en his feet
for .some reason or ether.
Tendler put ever one of the most unanimous wallepings ever administered
In fifteen rounds. Ordinarily the cash customers and prominent clubmen
' would have left early, but the jelly tar showed no real desire for extended
lumber.
Hl
IE CLEVERLY blocked a bh::ar,l of rights and lefts with
strong bewhiskered chin, stepped
nnd corrugated abdomen and at the end teas net in anil worse shape
than u guy emerging from three automobile accident.
Lecal Celer
THL'ItK is a little story which gees with this bout, and it is used here fo fe
the purpose of local color mostly red. The fust round was very tame and
the boys fiddled around like they always fiddle in the initial chapter.
Tem O'Heurke. who knew a much about boxing ns Heinz knows about
' pickles, is the Ilexing Commissioner, and Tem decided that Freedman was
net trying.
"Tendler is tee easy te hit with a right hook." opined Tem, "nod I
must say a few word."
Between the rounds lie went te Kreedman's corner and said :
"Cut out this stalling. If you don't fight better jeu will net receive a
cent for your work."
" New if there is nnjihing that Freedman likes better than money it Is
mere money. Therefore he decided te prove te Commissioner Tem that he
committed a social error, or wores te that effect. He would show him he
could fight and he would.
Therefore he frowned terribly and rushed out like n battleship about te
take n fall out of a ennafbeat. He swished his fists threateningly, tried
te Inflict damage, but Lew was never there. Then, when the battling was at
Its height, something happened.
Tendler caressed the savage Sailor en the blei'h whiskers and the Sailor
took a nose dive. He lopped a he never Hopped before and smiled" as the
referee nnd the timekeeper counted, each out of turn. Sailors always smile
when the voyage becomes rough. He staggered te his feet at the count of
nine and tried for some fancy footwork.
Lew happened te be a trifle mere fancy, se he socked his fee again en
the same whiskers, but changed the style of attack. This time h- iieil hi
right hand and it had the snmc effects
FREEI)M.. mrt the fleer rowing up as fir win going duicn. mid
once mere the counting duet iron put en. 'through a dim hate,
which evidently reminded him of a thick fog, the Sailor count, d nine,
and he ten? riaht. I p he came again for nil .
eglects Almest a Duty
WHEN a rollicking seaman sinks for the third time en the hiinj deep. or.
,, nny place else, etic usually can cash in en the tickets nnd 'tell one's
friends what a swell guy he used te be. Hut this time it was different.
irtR. nt While the storm whs nt it height and the Sailor had all decks awash.
Tendler torpedoed the near-wreck with another rll'ht which landed amidships.
Down he went again, hut arose without waiting for the referee nnd the time
keeper te get all mixed up in the count, Until counters thanked him for hl
kind consideration.
Hut the end wn net jet. Ah. no, and far he it from tiint. l.oeie had
another new one whleh lie had net exposed. Socking Kreedman in the solar
plexus or Keme place near there. Lew quickly walloped the dazed Chicagoan
en the chin, nnd this time it looked as if the counters could rehearse several
limes without even annoying the fallen gladiator. However, he was up at
the count of nine. b'eary-eed, his knees wabbly and a sickly grin en his face.
and managed te hir through the round. This was because Tendler became
anxious te put ever the well-known haymnker. He wnnteii 10 score a clean
nnd decisive K. (.. because he ha been meeting Kreedman tee often tin
year. Enough i enough, and that means four time.
. But the Sailor used excellent headwork. Profiting by hi? nautical ex
perience, the seasick .lelly cast anchor' four times in the second stanza, and
net once did it roll off hi" knife. These brief respites aided considerably, and
If they did net they should have. Ne one knows hew he lived through tin
storm and strife, but you never can tell about a sailor.

At one exciting episode a spectator who was all

All of which gees te show that the championship of Sailor Kreedman un
wen by one of thee large margins'. In fact, the margin was ., large that
the judges could net possibly make a mistake. Thi is unique in the annals
of boxing in this City of New Yerk.

Tendler Cannet Understand
Referee's Warnings About Hit

LEW'S RIGHT HAND HURT
By LOT'IR H. .IAKKK
New Yerk. Dec. 17. Lew Tendler.
who decisively eliminated Sailor Freed
man from the path of Chnmplnn Benny
Leenard nt the Square last night nfter
forty-one round of punching proclivi
ties, all of which included four matches
between them., i wondering here to
day what the new game in metropolis
boxing I all about. "I don't get It
all," smiled Loele tedav between puffed
lip.
"It certainly i n new one en me."
continued the jubilant southpaw, "and
I can't think of a geed nnme for it te
save my life, unless you want te call it
'hitting te the hotly ain't fnlr.' Here'
whnt I'm driving at : Beginning with
the tenth round, llefep e Kid McPurt
latid continually warned me about driv
ing iincicfltn the Sailor's midsection.
"Several times during the tenth and
eleventh round, when he cparntcd us
from clinches, the Kid whispered In m
ear te step walloping l'reedinan in the
body. I shifted my attack te his head,
hut ns I was aware of the fact that mj
blows te the stomach were hurting the
Sailor, I went back te body smashes.
Threatened Disqualification
"Then during the minute's intermis
sion between the twelfth nnd thirteenth
rounds. McPnrtlnnd cntne ever te my
corner, mere emphatic thnn before, nnd
said: 'If you don't step using body
blows I'll disqualify you.' He started
away, then returned nnd continued.
'Yeu don't hnvc te hit him there, any
wny you're n winner by a mile, se
punch at his head.'
"Isn't thnt the best Hue of chatter
you have ever heard?"
Tcndlcr's handlers in last night's
contest corroborated the boxer's state
ment, and they, tee. de net understand
why McPnrtlnnd was e anxious te
have the southpaw eliminate his body
attack.
Speaking of his victory. Tendler
said: "That settles It. se far ns Freed
man i concerned. I socked him geed
and proper, nnd new they can bring en
the champion. Hew I am longing for
thnt crack al Leenard nt l!l." peinds nt
1' o'clock! I honestly believe I can de
the same te Leenard a I did te Kreed
man. and then I nm positive the light
weight title would come te Philadel
phia." "Isn't the Sailor a game guy?"
asked Lew. "Nobed wa mere sur
prised than myself wi en Kreedman was
among these standing nt the finish of
the bout after Hoeting him four times
in that second round. 1 never remem
ber a boxer going down se often in one
leiind for the count and finishing n
bout. He Isn't a ailnr he's. 11 battle
ship. "Kreedman i the g.ltnct man 1 ever .
met and my hat i off te him."
Knockdown Blews
In explaining hi knockdown punches.
Tendler said that a left cress Hush en
the chin toppled Kreedman tirl and
that the ether three times the Chi
cagoan went down were the results of
right hook.
"After thai second leund," further
said Tendler. "I couldn't get a real
geed shot at hi jaw. Kreedman kept
covering up s(l much net only hi
head, bet his body a well that the
only target I had met of the way were
his elbows and head. This pieve it
leek." he finished, and Lew displayed
his right hand, all of the knuckle of
which were badl welle.i and bruised.
Kreedman said thut he did net feel
any the uoise after the match. Tndnj
the Sailor I explaining te his listen
er that: "The better man did net win.
I can whip Tendler, and whip him be be
jend question. He wen la''t night, all
right, but luck wa with him. If it
hadn't bten for the second round I
wnu'd have come pretty near knocking
Tendler out.
"After these knockdown in the sec
ond round, although I knew what wa
going en, and wa net hurt much. 1
couldn't get under way lu mv best
feiin for lx or seven round-. Tendler
!n't the hftter boxer, and I can prove
it in another match."
Little Belting
Philadelphia was well icpiccuicd ft
the contest, while n number of visitor
were there from Atlantic Cit.v. About
."till fans from the (Junker City came
ever te ee Tendler win. and tlj-y
brought with th.'in a young fortune e
bnclc him up. but there was little
Kreedman money around. In the nfter nfter nfter
noen Tendler betters wanted te lav
odds of ; te .1. then giadualjy the ante
was hoe-ted 7 te .". N te ." nnd !l te
.- : finally nt ringside 'J te 1 was offered.
But little money cvhanged hands.
Leui Mulls wen several small bets at
' te 1, and in did Uafe W'clelT. who
headed the bhere contingent te the
I'.arden.
The met excited spectator there dur
ing the second round, when Kreedman
was doing his iliiwii-and-up. dewn-iind-up
net, was Herman Preman. the
tire man. He had waged different bets
,n 1 te 4. I te .'IVi. nnd 1 te :i that
Tendler would score a knockout. When
Lew failed te step the Sailor after the
fourth round, Passman was willing te
, sell all of his bets for 11 quarter.
Tendler wits joined by His wile, wlie
came ever from Philadelphia thi morn
ing, and they are going te remnin In
New Yerk ler several days.
