Lew Tendler Is Unconcerned as Chance at Lightweight Title Draws Near

BOTH SCRAPPERS SHE IN Til FOHBIC BOUT Leonard's Remarks About Lew Are Anything but Complimentary. CHALLENGER IS SILENT Chances for a Foul Are Good Because of Low Punching. By HENRY FARRELL, United Press Sports Editor. DELANCO. N. J., July 28.—Lew Tendler used to be a newsboy, and he is showing no more excitement on the eve of his fight with Benny Leonard than he used to in waiting for the first editions. While the champion is saying nasty things about the ability of his chal lenger, Tendler has only complimentary tributes to make about Leon ! ard. If the cutting statements of Leonard are having any effect in in timidating Tendler or reducing his morale, there are no symptoms on the surface. Lew Is Confident Tendler says he is going to win from from Leonard, not because the champion is no good, but because ‘‘Leonard is one of the greatest fighters in the world, but I am a little bit better.” Leonard, nearing the end of hi* training, looked to be in superb con dition, and Tendler looks just as fit. "While the champion has been working with left hand sparring partners instructed to work on his body. Tend-. ler has been taking them on the jaw from right handers and he believes that his style of attack will take all Leonard’s steam out of him before he is able to get one over to the jaw. Weight No Trouble It is apparent that Tendler will have no trouble making the weight. It seems certain also that he will be strong at the weight and that he will enter the ring physically and mentally primed for a great fight. Only one drawback appears in Tendler’s work. His body punches go over to a point that is as near as the law will allow to a foul. If the going gets rough for Leonard the champion is skillful enough to knock down one or two of the blows and the fight may result in a claim of foul.

Champion Brings New Game to U. S. EMILIO EGUILVZ IN ACTION (LEFT) AND A CLOSE-UP (RIGHT). AT LOWER RIGHT IS SHOWN HOW WICKER IS TIED TO WRIST I NJAI ALAI GAME. .

By XFA Service NE WYORK, July 26.—Juggling a speeding, overgrown bullet is the impression left with the spectator of a Jai Alai player in action. Emilio Eguiluz. star Cuban player and world’s champion of the game, has come to the United States to arouse American interest in Jai Alai. Jai Alai is a sort of glorified handball, but the ball is thrown from a basket arrangement attached to the wrist instead of being propelled by the palm of the hand. The Jai Alai courts are 222 feet long, thirty-six inches wide, with walls

RICKEY WAXES ELOQUENT ON HARD-LUCK OF CARDS

By WESTBROOK PEGLER. By United Setcs NEW YORK, July 26—Ailing and limping from an epidemic affliction of bunged ankles, barked shins, busted knuckles and colic, the Cardinals have come to New York again for some further proceedings with the Giants, whose quest of still another pennant isn't the cinch they expected. Branch Rickey, manager, moped in the coop while the Giants surmounted one of those lately characteristic i nth-inning attacks of the Cardinals, and beat them 9 to 8. “Why gosh-darn my suspenders,” he said. “Gosh-darn my suspenders, these Giant fans are always talking about Groh being hurt and Stengel being hurt and this pitcher not going so well and such as that. "But McHenry was out of our lineup for five weeks—McHenry who hit .350 last season and .305 as much as he has played this year. And there’s Yern Clemons out there catching to day with a bone-bruise on his right hand, raising a lump of bone right in the middle of his palm that ought to

ADDITION TO STAFF IS NEEDED FOR HOT FINISH

By EDDIE ASH It has become apparent the Indians! must muster more pitching strength j if they are going to climb back into j the American Association lead. Not j that the Tribe's chances have lost j their glow, but there is evidence that j at least one new twirler is needed to | battle down the hard home stretch in j the flag race. Owner Smith realizes the situation j and is striving to hook a flinger of j abil'ty from the big leagues. Getting a good man at this time is 1 a mighty task, but it is evident an! addition must be made to the staff j shortly if the devilish Saints are to j be caught and passed. The Cards bumped into some of j their own slugging tactics in New : FORT BOXING SHOW Three Bouts and Battle Royal at Harrison Thursday Night. The complete card for the Ft. Harrison boxing show Thursday night has been announced by the fort management. The card was completed with the signing of Happy Atherton and j Johnny Sawyer, local bantams, for j the four-round preliminary. These two boys recently fought a four-round draw at the fort. The main bout is between Frankie j Jones of San Francisco and Joe Wal- j 1 ters of Columbus, Ind., at 155 pounds, i ■ Jimmy Dunn, Lafayette, and Charlie j ] Winters, Indianapolis, are in the ii eight-round semi wind-ups. A battle : royal is on the program.

"I think we'll be able to keep most I of our regulars in the game from now on most of the time and win the first pennant in fifty years of baseball in St. Louis.” It's a boast with Rickey that the whole club, including Rogers Hornsby, was assembled by pickups m.d trades here and there.

LOUIS, July 26.—1n the first game of the big series between the St. Louis and New York clubs the Browns pummeled Carl Mays and Lefty O'Doul of the Yanks for eight runs, and won by a shut-out. This was a triumph for Urban Shocker, the once reliable nemesis of the Yanks, whose power over the New York team has been less consistent of late. He lost two games in the recent series in New York. The victory put the Browns twenty-nine points in the lead.

Y'oung Eguiluz went along, a stowaway on the boat. In Spain Eguiluz still followed the game, practicing as he got a chanoe. gradually he rose to the top of the ranking players. He went to Italy, and to South American, cleaning up all opposition, and finally with the restoration of play j in Cuba returned as the world's champion of the national game of his naUve land.

"Uncle Charley," Moran who spends his summers umpiring In the National League, says he Is going to j build his 1922 eleven around "Red” Roberts, All-American end and cap-tain-elect of the team. ! "We are getting plenty of good freshman material since little Centre j | started to step out and there Is no j ; reason why we should go back to ob- j livlon, because we lose a few stars.

TRIBE INVADES MILLERS’ CAMP FORBIGSERIES Both Teams, Former Leaders, Promise Thriller Round of Battles. By Time* Special MINNEAPOLIS, July 26.—Indians and Millers were to hook up here today in the opening battle of a four-day session. Both teams have been slumping more or less, but each is determined to "come out of it” and the series promises to be a warm one from a rivalry standpoint. Always popular here, the Hendricksraen are expected to draw more than the usual week-day attendance at Nicolett Park. Both teams here led the league at different times this season and each feels capable of getting back up there. Both Cantillon and Hendricks have been having trouble with their pitching staffs and a series of slugging is promised. The Indians reached here this morning from Milwaukee, where they broke even in a series with the Brewers. After a round with the Millers the Tribesmen will visit St. Paul next and : they are keenly desirous of making up a little lost ground at the expense of the Millers before going over the river to invade the camp of the Kelleyites. WILDNESS PROVES COSTLY Indians Out-Hit Brewers, but Weaver's Control Proves Handicap. By Time* Special MILWAUKEE, July 26. —Wildness ! on the part of Harry Weaver proved | costly to the Indians in the wind-up fray here Tuesday and the Brewers were able to get an even break in the series by grabbing the final contest, ! 8 to 4. i The peculiarities of baseball entered ! into the struggle. For Instance, the Indians got thirteen hits to eight for the Brewers, yet the locals got twice ; as many runs as the Hendrieksmen. Bases on balls issued by Weaver hail much to do with the outcome. He was shaky with his control and got himself In the hole in the tight places. Result: A Brewer batsman would sock one in the pinch. Homer Wins Game Oscar Mellilo put the locals In the game and the Indians practically out i of it bv clouting a home run with the j bases filled In the third. Two Brewers ; walked in this stanza In the sixth the locals got a second cluster of four, two bases on balls again figuring In the run-ntaking. Weaver dropped out for a pinch bitter in the seventh and Lee Bartlett finished on the mound for the Indians in effective manner. The Tribesmen opened the contest In glowing fashion, scoring two markers in the first round. They counted one more in the third and hud the game 3 to 0 before "Mallow" hoisted his fence ball. The Tribe made an effort to stage a last-inning rally and one run was scored, but Pitcher Bob Clark had too

HUGGINS DOPES CLUB WITH 92 WINS FOR 22’ PENNANT

By BILLY EVXSH Miller Huggins says ninety-two games will win tha pennant in the American League this year. Last season Huggins, who knows his baseball, said that ninety-six games would be enough to win. Huggins’ dope was correct. The Yankees won ninety-eight, and lost fifty-five for a percentage of .641 in 1921. The Yankees won the pennant. This year Huggins says that ninety•two games will be enough to win Nice Chance for Dark Horse The opinion of Huggins bears out! the'statement I made in a recent article, that this was a season made to order for a. dark horse to slip in and win the pennant, unless the New York Club soon hits its stride. The American League race has developed into a free-for-all. In which j at least six Clubs must get considerj ation. The Athletics and Bostons ap- ! pear to be the only clubs that haven’t Ia good chance. It certainly looks as if the New York club should win ninety-two games The great pitching staff of the hefty a lead and he checked further : Tribe efforts. Walter Rehg was on the bench with an injured leg received Sunday. MONARCHS NEXT ON BILL j A. B. C.s Defeated Baeharaeli Grants in Final Game Here. The A. B. C.s will meet the Kansas j !

| Yankees seems to have hit its stride. , It the sluggers start whaling the ball, the Yanks will prove most troublesome. The National League has been in existence since 1876. During that time only one club a pennant with ninety-two games on the right hand side of the ledger. Phillies DM It in 1915 This was in 1915, when the Phillies came through with a percentage of .592. The American League has been doing business since 1900, and in those twenty-one years, three clubs have won a pennant with a slightly smaller percentage than Huggins figures to j win in 1922. The clubs are evenly balanced in the American League this year. Every game is a battle. There are no soft spots. That is why ninety-two games won may cop the pennant. That is why a majority of the clubs have a lookin. The terse statement of Manager j Huggins best explains the situation in ! the American League.

A bad spill on the final Irp of the one-mile amateur roller skating race ! marred what promised to be a senj sational finish at the Riverside Park roller skating rink last night. Farley Meyers, won first: Basil Berry, second; and Ted Schuller, third. The spill in the last lap interfered with the skaters and the time was not as fast as has been made on the rink. Meyers, Berry and Schuller qualified to compete in the amateur State >ils championship event held last nig,.t, by having won a series of elimination races held at. the Riverside Park rink on other nights. The race attracted a large crowd last night. Schuller drew the pole, but Mey- ! ers got the letd on the first lap. He held the lead until the half mile mark when Berry passed him. Berry’ held the lead less than a lap and Meyers was out in front again setting pace. xi As the men started on the seventeenth and last lap they were bunched with Meyers fighting hard to retain his lead. Berry came even with him on the first turn. Schuller was less than three feet behind him and Berry ; slipped and fell.
