For twelve 1 rounds Leonard waited his chance and i seemed content to pile up a margin of points that assrued him the decision ! if his opponent last the limit. Early iin the thirteenth round his chance came when he rocked Welling with a I right hook to the jaw. Then the champion turned into a tiger. He opened i with a fusillade of rights and lefts ; that sent the Chicago boy to the floor three 'Times. Leonard charged into him in the 14th round and floored him again. Welling was helpless. Ho ! couldn’t see, he hardly could stand and his hands were hanging limply at his (side. Leonard measured his jaw an 1 ; started an uppercut but stopped and . looked at Referee Haukop. The official stepped between them and raised I the champion’s hand. Welling stagI gered to his corner and dropped on his I stool.
