LEONARD CONFIDENT OF
 VICTORY OVER TENDL F

Budd's Lake, N. J., July 24-Benny Leonard believes he is at the highest form he ever will attain as a boxer; he rates Lew Tender as a lesser man than Rocky Kansas, who was easy for the champion few weeks ago; he is training as assiduously as heI has done for his important matches of the past. that, he said today, is why he thinks he will knack out the Philadelphian before the seventh round of their lightweight champion ship tilt in Jersey City Thursday eve ming.
 Leonard today began tapering off for the bout with Tender. When he finished the grind, the champion said he would have a thorough workout tomorrow, go through light exercises on Wednesday and do little road work before climbing into his auto mobile Thursday morning to motor to Jersey City, weigh in and count the | hours until the moon goes up over the stadium at Boyles Thirty Acres.
 This year. said the champion af- ter his workout today, T feel that I am at the height of my power,-that 1 never will be a better man than l am now. This is the. best year of my life. That is why I have had so many bouts this summer and why l am going to have several more after disposing of Tender. won't | have an allbi if I lose-not even that 1 was worried or off form.
 Yes, 1 am in better shape than | when I won the title from Welsh. am stronger now than then. am ma | tured. have had all kinds of ring ex- 1 perience. A specialist who examined me yesterday, said that I was in per feet condition-my heart, lungs and temperature.
 Now Tender is a good boy and good boxer. He is young and ambitious and he can hit-but not hard enough. I am made for southpaws. You know l violated all the canons of boxing when l began fighting with a right | lead-a right hand that works like a left jab. But that is why I always have had it easy with southpaws.
 The champion went through his whole repertoire and bundle of tricks today; first four mile run then a | light breakfast, a few hours play with his sister, "Sid", eight three minute | rounds with sparring partners, ore | round of shadow boXng, calistheaics and a long rub-down and muscle ] kneading from Matty Seamon, his i trainer.
 Afterwards the champion took dip in the lake, came home for a lamb
 stew dinner back down to the lake to | paddle Sid" about in a canoe, and i then trudged home to talk with his mother and three brothers and wait with the aid of a pinochle deck

mental player, and in the end may prove liability rather than an asset. Smith Is a splendid character, but an ordinary fielder and a fair hitter. Players secured by Boston may help the club to a moderate degree.
 Deals of this sort in mid-season are regrettable and must be discou- ragged and legislated against"
 President Johnson revealed that Clark. Griffith, of the Washington club, had attempted to have legisla- ton passed in the American league prohibiting sales of players after July 1, except by the waiver route, but that the owners of the New York clubs prevailed upon him to withdraw the resolution. The two major leagues by agreements then fixed August first as the date limit trades and sales.
 As a result of the Boston and New York deal, new legislation probably will be enacted, according to Presi dent Johnson. fixing July 1 as tn, latest by which trades can be made except by waiver.
