KEASBEY BEATS
F0RDS OUTFIT
BY 5 to 3 Score in Fast Pre-.
liminary Game at Cop
per Works Diamond

One big inning in which they
scored five runs was enough to make
the series between the Keasbey Field
Club and the Fords A. G. ever
stephen. The score of yesterdays
contest was SD and was the fifth
straight for the Keasbeyites. The
tilt was played as a preliminary at
fair at the Copper Works and was
just as exciting as the main malice.
With two on base in the first
inning, Jensen gave the horsehide a
ride for a round trip and then after
two more men of the hill represen-
tatives secured themselves on the
sacks, Parsler doubled, accounting
for two more runs. The Fords nine
fought an uphill battle scoring the
three runs to their credit, one by
one, but could not reach five.
Gardella had the better of Ten
Eyck in the pitching, the latter al
lowing ten safe hits including a
home run and a double while Gar
della was always master of the sit
uation and gave two hits less than
his opponent, Jensen, w. Romer
and Parsler led the winners with the
stick while Smalley and Katransky
accounted for six of the teams
eight hits.
The other game of the series will
be played in the near future.

FAVOR LEONARD
To WIN FIGHT
Worlds Lightweight Cham
pion viii Defend Title To-
night Against Tender

With both fighters to be weighed
in this afternoon. the lightweight
championship OF the world will be
battled for by Lew Tender and
Benny Leonard tonight at the new
Yankee stadium, New York, before
what is expected to be a record
breaking crowd. It is estimated that
the crowd would probably go over
the 10000 mark.
Both Leonard and Tender ara
chuck full of confidence, while the
champion holds the star favoritism
with odds at 2-l and as high as 11-5.
Leonard sort of disapproves of
these odds and, although saturated
in the feeling of tonight's battle
going in his favor. still holds that
he is not worth the odds.
Tender is reported as being in
fine shape and his followers claim
that, because of his wonderful show
ing made at the last encounter be-
tween the two lightweights, and his
heavy training for tonight's engage.
ment, he will take away the title in
the early minutes of fighting.
Either winner of the battle will
have little time to rest as Charley
White, who recently knocked out
Richie Mitchell is patiently waiting
for a sock at the championship, as
ne was promised a fight last year,
and many other contenders are
hanging around awaiting the oppor-
tunity to apply.
A round by round description of
the fight will be announced from
the News window.
