ent tie with Mississippi, for the

feated Mississippi University and lost
to Mississippi College. will take on
Mississippi A. and NJ. The annual af-
fair between Tulane and the Aggies
went to the former, s to 0. last sea-
son. and promises to be another hard
fought contest.
The struggle will be one of half a
dozen or more that promise to make
the day one Of the best before No

best record of several years.
Georgia Tech and Rutgers meet in
Atlanta in what appears destined to
be a good intersectional scrap. The
New Jersey crew is said to outweigh
the Golden Tornado" whose coaches
are depending on speed. Odds here
at least are on Tech. 1t will be the
first time these teams have met.
Vanderbilt completes the inter-
sectional program with it's first game
against Texas University. Many other

countered tomorrow afternoon at 3

[ENDLER'S TITLE HOPES
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK. October 22.-Lew
Tender of Philadelphia has waved
goodbye to any immediate chance Of
battle with Benny Leonard for the
championship. He did it
with Il much-touted left hand which he
might just as well have left in the
dressing room until the thirteenth
round of his bout last night with
Rocky Kansas at the Madison Square
Garden.
Tender did not make an impress
sive showing. Kansas showed, .as he
always has, that he is a sturdy, rough
and-ready battler with ability to give
it and take it. but he never has got
near enough to the lightweight throne
to hurl a bomb at the occupant
Usually the Buffalo boxer has to take
more than he gives, yet he outpointed
Tender last night. in addition to ac-
cepting all the Philadelphia had to
offer in the way of punches and ask
ed for more.
The Philly boy has been heralded
for his ability to hit. especially with
his left, but he might just as well
have been hitting the ground with his
hat for all the concern he caused
Kansas. In the earlier rounds his old
lefthand stance had the Buffalo Ital-
ian paving around like a near-sight-
ed man in strange spectacles, but
ROCKY soon worked into close quar-
ters. where he cut loose short right and
left hooks and jabs to Lewis head and
body with damaging effect.
Rocky then proceeded to pile up a
staggering total of points, culminat-
ing in clean knockdown in the
ninth round, when he dropped Lew
with a right hook to the jaw. The
latter evidently realized that only a
supreme effort could save him the
decision. for he cut loose with fresh
burst of speed in the last three
rounds. swapping his left across time
after time. accompanied by a shift to
put weight behind the punches. Kan
sas not only weathered the storm, but
was not even forced to take in sail.
and Tender was anything but fresh
at the finish. He was cut about the
eyes and his ribs were red from the
tattoo Kansas had played on them.
1t was an interesting battle. but
not good one. 1t lacked just the
difference which separates the Brook
lyn handicap from a selling race at
Empire City-the class of the contes-
tants. 1t seems probable that Benny
Leonard will have to look further
for an opponent in his next battle
which he says he hopes to make his
last.
