 Man For Leonard

Low Tenders 15 round victory over courageous little Johnny Dundee in Madison square Garden last night placed the Philadelphian again in the nmelight as the contender for Benny Leonard's lightweight title.
 Tender battered the swarthy body of the Italian throughout the contest. Less than five times did Lew land on Johnnies jaw and these few blows were only slight.
 Tenler's long left played a tattoo on Dundee's short ribs and Johnny winced at times with pain. But the punishment drew the best fighting that was in him and time and again he reached Lew'S jaws with long swings and hooks.
 Dundee weighed 126 pounds against Tenders 133 1-4.
