Tender Fights Gainely

render FlghtS Gainely
 More than 65,oOO fans who contrib uted record lightweight gate" ol S500,000 according to estimates ol promoters, saw Leonard whip Tendle| time by a far more decisive margil than last July at Boyle's 30 Acrea where Tender, at the height of hid form, battled the champion on closl to even terms. But last nights battle| despite it's onesidedness was a torric struggle and the challenger went dowl to defeat only after making a gameI though futile stand against defeat.
 Leonard Is Clever
 Leonard's brainy ring generalshipl his resourcefulness and skillful nanl euvering at the hottest moments ol the conflict were the chief factors irl his spectacular victory. His puncheI accurately timed and unerringly aim| ed landed three times as often as hi| opponents blows but smashing as the.I wereSthey failed to bring the chalI lenger down.
 Benny Loses Punch
 Leonard, who is now in his seventh year as lightweight king, has lost ;| trifie of the boyer behind his blows most critics believe but as tacticiai| he holds a place among the greatest the ring has ever known. . It was this cool confidence that had Tender baffled almost from the startI Leonard had carefully mapped out hi | plan of battle against Tenders pecuI liar southpaw style. Anticipating Lewis attack. Leonard turned it baclI and when the challenger tried rush ing, he, found g. shifty, brilliant de | fense that blocked his most furiouI efforts.
 Tender Not So Good
 Tender, in the opinion of many ex perts measured far below the form he displayed against Leonard las year, but this view probably was du to a large extent to the fact tha Leonard, solving his opponents plar of campaign, outguessed, and as @ re suit, outfought him every step c. th way.
 Seldom was Tendler able to brin. into action his famous Ieft hook. Now and then he landed it to Leonard body or head, but it failed to rufflj the title holder Meanwhile Leonard never losing his remarkable poise kept up steady fire that gradually wore down the challenger.
 18th a Thriller
 Leading by decisive margin or/ points in the first 12 rounds Leonard spurted sensationally in the last threI rounds and volleyed Tender with everything he had in an effort to SCOT, a Knockout. Once Tendler slipped from a succession of head and bodJ blows in the 18th round, the mos thrilling of the bout but he jumped up and managed to weather the storm Again in the 14th and 18th he wa forced back under a whirlwind drive
