Jersey Law Has Benny and Lew Guessing As Fight Draws Near

50UAWK LIKELY IF THE! FIGHT EASY DR CLOUT Public Will Kick Unless Battle ' Is Slam Bang Affair, Reformers if It Is. ALL ARE IN A QUANDARY Promoter and Principals Have So Many Problems They Don't Know What to Do. By WESTBROOK PEfiI.ER. United Sen's Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK. July 24 —Prohibition which has relieved the congestion in some of the best American jails, has thereby made available separate apartments for Benny Leonard and Leftie Lewie Tendier, in case they should get into a fight during their twelve-round lightweight championship boxing exhibition next Thursday in the cool of the Jersey night. There’s lots of room for a couple of young business men who fracture the laws of New Jersey by giving each other a knock on the nose. Up Against It Benny and Lewie are in a quandary. If they get in that ring and don’t fight the people who pay nearly half a million dollars will raise a squawk whose harnessed energy would run the factories of the United States for twelve months. Yet. if they forget themselves and do fight, the tame Squire Gilson, who has been pleading with the Jersey Supreme Court to avert the whole match, is quite likely to flute a few bars on his police whistle and, pointing to the undraped figures in the ring, demand: "Officer, do your duty." On behalf of the combined Protes tant regionists of New Jersey, Squire Gilson asked Justice Swayzee of the Supreme Court for warrants against Leonard. Tendier and Promoter Tex Rickard, upon which they could have been bound to keep the peace. The Justice’s Opinion The justice refused, saying th* 1 time to arrest them was not before, but during the commission of this crime or afterward. This was a brash suppose *.ion on the part of the judge. So far the protests of the reform bodies have been/ a complete failure Cannon Chase of Brooklyn has ap peared in court and done more leg work from place to place to prevent this fight than the boxers themselves have done on the road.

BIG HOWL IN AMERICAN AFTER WHOLESALE TRADE

l.y f nited Press NEW YORK. July 24—With the pennant slipping out of their grasp, the New York Yankees reached out last night and grabbed .foe Dugan and Elmer Smith from their prominent ally, the Boston Red Sox. • The process by which Dugan and Smith stepped out of the scrub clothes into a varsity uniform cost the Yanks four plyers. Johnny' Mitchell. Chick Fewster. Elmer Miller and a pitcher to be selected later It is understood that the Yanks, handed over UIuO.OOO to boot. Bitter criticism over the deal has arisen throughout the American League over the trade, and it is Justified. No one can blame the Yankees for spending money to strengthen their faltering club, but it looks pe culiar that they had such ready ar. cess at all times to the Boston Red Sox.

OPPORTUNITY A BIT TARDY, BUT COUCH GRABS CHANCE

Ry BILLY RYASS A major league hero in his first season and at the'-age of 30! There you have the case of John Daniel Couch of the Cincinnati Reds, j who completely upsets the theory that | "youth must he served." When the major leagues were buying almost ail available material from the Pacific Coast League last winter, the Reds decided to close their eyes and dip a hand into the bag. According to statistics the best .pitcher was Aldridge, w r ho was purchased by the Chicago Cubs. Down the list Pat Moran s eyes blinked. A number of major league discards had good records. There was Johnny Couch with San Francisco. He had a .625 percentage with twenty-five victories and fifteen i defeats. Moran really was attracted : by Couch's iron-man performance, as Ihe had appeared in 345 innings. Thus j Patrick figured that Couch might do. j The new pitcher arrived in the | spring, minus the blowing of trjjmj pets. The Reds had not set a ftnan- | cial record in arranging the purenase. And this same Couch, with a sec-ond-division team, won eleven of his ■ first fourteen games. Nehf, Barnes, j | Toney, Douglas and Ryan, supported j ] by a world championship cast, nave ' | not pitched as effectively as Couch. Couch is a reproduction of Jeff j

Petty started and went along in great shape untill the seventh, when the Brewers knotted the count at two apiece. The game was won by Milwaukee in the ninth off Y'oung Seib, after two were out as th® result of Myatt’s single, Chulu'n double and Schaak's single.
