A large crowd Of upstate fans saw
Britton SO through his last PAGES. The
veteran boxed ten rounds, FIVE apiece
with Joe yelling, who stood off Benny
FOR fourteen rounds. and Charley Pitts.
This IS the third meeting in several
years between Britton and Leonard.
They clashed for ten rounds at the
Commonwealth Club. and most Of the
experts agreed Benny was entitled 20
the victory. They collided again in
eight rounds IN Philly and this time
Britton was acclaimed the winner.
Britton outpointed Ted Kid Lewis

1916. and gathered in the title. lie will

Leonard has not been seen IN n ring
