Leonard Camp Look
For Hard Fight in
Bout With Hammer

MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, Aug. 2. -
Billy Gibson, manager of Champion
Benny Leonard, who meets Ever Ham
mer in ten-round contest Saturday
arrived here today expressing conf
dence that Leonard will fight his us
ual battle against the Chicago con.
tender. He expressed concern over
the champions eye wound received in
his match with Lew Tender, saying
no chances would be taken that might
result in reopening the cut
Leonard will take only slight
workout tomorrow the first he has
done since coming to Michigan City,
Gibson said. "He can't take a chance
of having sparring partner reopen
the cut. Hammer gave the champion
one of the hardest battles Of his car
eer six years ago and Benny will have
picture of that encounter in mind
when he enters the ring. We look
for a hard fight. Leonard will be
forced to protect his eye and lip, be-
sides trying to upset the rushing Ham
mer.
Leonard, he said, planned to stay
at Michigan City until after the La
Dor Day match between Jack Demp-
sey and Bill Brennan. The champion
did eight miles of road work today
and spent much of the afternoon on
the beach but was very little in the
water
Hammer went six fast rounds with
his sparring partners and asserted he
had reached "the crabby pink" of con
dition.
