enough to draw the gate receipts,
and that's what Leonard is after.
Leonard Shows Kansas.
Leonard opened up the sample case
in his battle with Kansas last night
and showed the fans a most superior
line of goods. He spread out every
thing a champion ought to have ex-
cept a knockout The titleholder
was at the real lightweight limit and
off weight had weakened him or
slowed him. He had speed. marvel
Gus footwork and the punch. His
judgment of distance was seldom at
fault, his blocking was almost per-
feet and he had command of the sit
uation from the first gong to the
last.
Leonard's left hand was as good a
defense as a suit of armor. Every
time Rocky set himself for punch
that left snapped his head back and
killed the effectiveness of his blow
before it started.
The one thing that Leonard did not
show was any enthusiastic desire to
stow Rocky away. In the eleventh
round he dropped the Buffalo boxer
cleanly for a count of seven with
vicious left hook to the jaw. Kan
sas rose, dazed and punch drunk, but
Benny made little effort to finish him
off, and the rugged Italian soon re-
covered.

He should fit into Clevelahd's infield
