LEONARD DEFEATS DUNDEE.

NEW YORK, September 1s.-Ben-
ny Leonard outpointed Johnny Dun
dee in their eight-round bout at the
Armory A. A.. in Newark, last night
before a crowd of 5000 persons. The
lightweight champion had the better
of five of the eight rounds, Dundee
earning the second and third. with
the fourth even.
Dundee fought his usually aggres-
sive battle. jumping about the ring
and swinging wildly, but it was of no
avail against his cleverer and cooler
opponent Leonard boxed a waiting
bout. He was content to let Dundee do
the leading, make him miss and then
coulter with a stiff left jab or a sharp
right hook. Had it been possible to
keep accurate count of the blows
scored by each man it would have
been found that Benny landed at least
two for every one OF Dundee's.

fully strong in all departments Of the

4ormidable problem with Cicotte or

Reds pitchers can stop the Sox from

According to McGraw the Reds are

cause they have played fine ball over
