Benny Leonard Real Champ;
Eight Have Held the Title

The fistic world is paying homage to
Benny Leonard today.
The little Harlem boxer is the new
king of the light-weights. and he prom
ises to become one OF the most popular
boxers who ever has worn the crown.
Leonard will be Honized because he
has what every champion should have
a Knockout punch. Fred Welsh. who
was knocked out in nine round by
Leonard Monday night, was an unpc oular
champion for the reason that he "a not
Knockout his opponents; because he was
always content to 10 ten rounds and col
lect his end OF the receipts
With Leonard II will be different He
has climbed TO the heights OF the light
weight division mainly because he
brushed aside all opposition in a clean.
decisive manner. His few victories in
cluding his victory over Welsh. have
been won with knock-outs. He is king
OF a champion who commands respect
and popularity. He is rot a stale
Leonard's ascendancy to the light
weight throne is one of the best things
that could have happened to boxing. He
is the sort OF champion who recalls the
days Of real championship days OF
Cans, Nelson and wolgast.
That Leonard will play his champion
ship role correctly was made plain to-
Gay, when ne SAID:
II hope I Will prove worthy Of the
lightweight title, a worthy successor TO
the great light-weights OF other days. I
want to go on record as a champion will
ing to meet all worthy opponents, and !
will gladly do so. The only thing that
will stop me now will be my country s
call I will enlist II they want me. I
will not wait to be drafted
Leonard won a clean-cut victory over
Fred Welsh. There was no fluke about
It, and Welsh's claim that he should have
been counted out by Referee Mcfarland
borders on the ridiculous Welsh was
dazed and tottering, a victim Of a better
boy who forced him out Of his shell and
battered him down He tried to stall and
failed because Leonard would not permit

When Mcfarland was finally forced
TO step in front Of Leonard Welsh was
drunk with punishment, a swayinC weak
limbed derelict OF better days and there
wasn't a fan around the ringside whU

II was a great victory for a great
game boxer, and II marked the passing
Of the craftiest. though most unpopular
boxer who ever won the lightweight
crown.

CUBS PLAYING GOOD
BALL FOR MITCHELL
Manager Given Credit for Fine Show.
4 - , ,' ing of His Club. -.5~.

New York. May 29.-The smart brand
OF baseball and the fighting spirit of the
1871 Cubs are tributes TO the managerial
ability OF Fred Mitchell.
The iron Jaw and forceful chara9er
Of the new Chicago pilot are rejected
in the playing of his team-refected SO
strongly that for the first time In years
the Cubs are feared and respected by
every club In the National League.
That Mitchell will be able to steer the
Cubs into a championship his first year
out Is doubtful In the face Of some very
strong opposition but a pennant race II
much the same as game OF ball-theTe
Is always a chance for an upset until
the schedule is played out, Just as there
is always a chance for a ninth-hnihs
rally.
When Mitchell took charge Of the Cubs
he knew It was up to him to reouilc
them. The day he was named manager
he said:
'T know most Of the Cub players and
I BELLE | know what they can do.
think I have the nucleus for winning
club. though It may take time to. con-
struct A winner. But II the players VIII
give me their best am confident that
viii be able to get results"
Mitchell Is getting results. He Is
teaching the Cubs new tricks and they
are giving him their best in every game.
The snap and ginger of their playing
are good to see, and they are never
beaten until the last man is out in the
ninth. Such a ball club is bound to be a
factor in any pennant race.
Always a hard plugger, Mitchell be-
lieves that the ball player or the ball
club that keeps hammering away will
eventually beat down all obstacles In its
path As a-player he had a hard row to
hoo he wa haCk To fhe minor
leagues no less than four times before
he finally landed a regular berth. YET
he never quit trying, and his plugging
has landed him at the top of the ladder.
Playing under such managers as Jim
my Collins. Hugh Duffy. John CAMEL
Joe Kelley and George Stallings. Mitch
ell has studied the inside of baseball from
the field. the bench and the coaching
lines for years. He got his start in
New Brunswick league, as a pitcher, and
Larry Mclean was his catcher in those
days Hugh Duffy. who was scoutins
for Boston in 1901, landed both players,
and both eventually made good, though
they were separated soon after coming
to the majors.
Mitchell stuck to pitching until his arm
gave out. but he was too smart player
to be discarded on this account, and
was played In the outfeld. Finally he
trled catchlnk' ana once aBail ne HiteN
the bill. He wound up his major league
career as a catcher.
Having played almost every position
on a ball club. Mitchell knows much
about all of them. On the field he Is
forceful. and a strict disciplinarian. He
knows what each Of his players is ca
pable OF doing, and he expects the best
in every game. That he gets results is
not surprising.
1t is good to see Mitchell at the helm
in Chicago. It is good to see the Cubs
come back to life. It means much to
the National League.
