MONEY INTEREST
LACKING ON TURF
Crowds Lose Interest In Great

BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YORK. June 29.-By L. p
Form reversals, those interesting
little incidents OF the race track
which leave you sadder and wiser
and lighter about the form fitting
wallet, have become too prevalent at
the metropolitan tracks this season
that the Jolly old public is just a
bit wearied. not TO say nom ulsed.
There have been entirely too many
upsets since the opening of the sea-
son TO suit the taste OF most Of the
turf patrons.
Money Racking.
Rumors. plentiful though vague,
have Il that an official investiga-
ton OF some peculiar looking races
IS about 20 be launched and that A
few suspensions are TO be passed
around among the boys. However,
nothing of this kind is in evidence
yet.
These reversals have had the ef-
feet of making betting in this vic
unity more precarious than ever and
il is significant that the crowds az
Belmont park and Aqueduct have
not been W TO the standard Of re-
cent years. They are staying away In
droves. not because they look with
suspicion upon racing, a turf fan
being incurable. but because the
average citizen hasn't the financial
resources 10 Withstand a continued
run OF form reversals.

LEONARD SLIPPING
BACKWARD, BELIEF
OF FIGHT EXPERT
Champion Blames BrittOn Vic
tory on Training in In
side Quarters.
HENRY /. FARRELL.

NEW YORK. June 29.-(By u.
P.)-Because one of the smartest old
heads in the boxing game and one
of the rings greatest boxers-Jack
Britton-made him look bad, the
folks are figuring that Benny Leon
ard has one foot off the lightweight
throne.
Implements OF doping are being
used TO figure that the lightweight
champion has taken on two good
chances of losing his crown in his
fight with Rocky Kansas at Michi-
gan City on the fourth" and later
in the month against Lew Tender
in Jersey City.
Slipping Backward.
Figuring that Leonard was at his
best against Britton, with no weight
10 make and nothing critical at
stake, it might be figured that Benny
has gone back and that he is all
set for a fall.
There is no doubt that Leonard
is not as good as he was two years
ago because he is not one Of those
unusual athletes who improve with
age.
Leonard blames his poor showing
against Britton on indoor training.
He prepared for that fight in New
York gymnasium 10 help his train
er get started n business.
Indoor training especially in New
York, long ago has been proved to
be bad stuff. Jack Dempsey tried II
flor Bill Brennan and Tom Gibbons
tried it for Harry Greb and the re-
suits were unmistakable.
Tender Different
ANY day in the week Rocky Kan
sas is a tough proposition for any
lightweight but Leonard should
have no more trouble with him than
he has had in the past.
Against Tender IL will be a differ
ent proposition. BY long odds the
Philadelr hia southpaw is the most
dangerous contender in the division
and he will have heavy backing 20
beat the champion even II they are
20 go through one OF those node
eision things.
With two hard fights in his sys-
tenn, Leonard ought 70 approach his
old time form against Tender and
u his fOotwork is anything near
what II used 20 be. Tenders deadly
left will have hard time getting
over.
Rumblings are coming from Jersey
that they don't want the Leonard
Tender thing over there and Rick
ard may be forced 70 switch tho
fight 10 the New York Velodrome.
