Leonard Has Hard Eight With Tendler Tonight 5 I nlcc-il l*rri»a soils C<»rrr«|M»ith'nt ! New York, July 23. iSpecinl to Daily Di-nioiral)—Alter six yeurn ol rather trilling cases. Beimy Leonard the good looking lightweight i hiini pion, will have Io go to work in the Yankee stadium tonight when he meets Lew Tendler. the less handsome challenger from Philadelphia. For the first time since he won the |campionahi|>. the experts reckon that Leonard will not only have to work Ind will he forced to serious manual labor if he is to leave the stadium with lhe crown on his dome. During lhe six years of his reign, the Ichampion was mostly engaged in preventing an opponent from mussing I the patent leather sheen off his locks. Twice Io has been driven to the point of anger where he was forced to knock out impudent opponents who took liberties with him. Jimmy Johnston promoter of the I light, expei ts a crowd of 80,000 in the stadium and he figures on counting $600,000 from the gate. Advance sales have gone beyond |35t),000 and many scats still are available for the last minute rush. _ Largey because there has bi on so ■ < littli Tendler money on the market, the mills favor Leonard at 2 to 1, with very little betting. Most of tin- mon- • y being offered is cm knockouts t-.nci the round. | —X o — • Dr. Starkweather Dies New has been received here of the death of Dr. R. L. Starkweather at Goshen, Indiana.
