 New York, October 22-Benny Leonard Is preparing for the last act. He will defend his titIe against the winner of Friday nights bout-at Madison Square Garden-providing a satisfactory financial arrangement can be made. Then, win or lose, this lion n-hearted fighter whose character and gentlemanly demeanor have made him one of the bright orna- ments of the ring, and a credit to his profession, will retire from the pub lie eye. At least. that Is his present intention.
 A pretty story liesN back of this decision--a regular moving picture mother story. Bennys mother has lost sight of how good her son Is and what he Is liable to do to each and every opponent. Benny is her boy and every time he fights she spends anxious hours, not thinking of his victory but whether her boy will come home safe and sound.
 Anxious Mother
 
 state of mind has increased until now the champion never enters ring with part of his mind centering upon the mother waiting at home. And the first thing he does after a battle is to telephone her that all is we'll She wants him to get out of the pro- fession and enter upon some less strenuous calling. And for that mat ter Leonard is rather anxious to do this himself. He has keen mind and excellent business instinct Be- sides he has under consideration a number of business offers which are very attractive to him.
 Further, Benny Is getting along. and he knows the inevitable story of the years--the descent from the peak of great ability to the valley of me- diocrity. A pitcher can go to the well

Meighan Has Tough Opponent in the
 AtIGnfan
By HOWELL ALLEN

Stanley Meighan. the human dy- namo, who has appeared twice tn main attractions at the B A. C.. will put in another appearance tomorrow night, when he tackles about the toughest proposition he has yet un- dertaken In meeting Rabbit Palmer of Atlanta in & 1o-round bout.
 Meighan has been tried and has proven his worth before local fans, He has made hundreds of friends since his arrival in the Ham" and will doubtlessly gain many more with to- morrow's battle.
 Meighan Is just what he is termed, a human dynamo" one who keeps fighting all the time and gives action throughout. He would rather fight than eat and fights for the love of the game.
 ka meeting Palmer. he Is meeting one of his own kind, a fighter. a bat tier. one that can give and take and still keep coming in for more. This will be the first time these two boys have met. but both have met tho same opponents and both have practically beaten about the same boys.
 Although there is not much def iilht uOIC Oh lhAS htAAoAJ Nho W 0t N of Tommy Tompkins that he is an exceptionally good boy and worthy of giving Meighan real hard fight should be enough to satisfy the most pessimlstic of fans. Tommy believes that to win Stanley will have to put forth every effort he has. Not that Meighan has had any set-ups before, as the other two fights he has had were with Freddie Boorde and Abe Kabakoff, one of the cleverest boxers ever to appear In a local ring and the other one of the toughest. Tommy says he is trying to make them Just & little harder this time.
 The preliminaries have not been lined up as yet, although it can be said that the usual good prelims will prevail Jack Brady. Danny Stevens, Johnny Marlow and Sailor Slppson will take part In the prelims. There will also be two other good bouts as openers. Tommy is trying to get some out-of-tewn boxer to get here by Monday morning to be used on the Monday night bill.
