LEW TENDLER IS
THROUGH As
L|GHT"
Will Never Again Fight in
135-Pound Class, He
Declares.

PHILADELPHIA March s Lew
Tender is through as a lightweight.
Never again will the southpaw enter
the prize ring in the 1S5-pound
class. Lewis lightweight days are
over, never to return.
The man who fought twenty-seven
round with Benny Leonard in two
crown battles, and failed to realize
his lifetime dream, made the an
nouncement today.
"Ill never fight again as a light
weight" said Lew. IT don't know
whether l could make the weight,
If l wanted to. But even IL
could, l wouldn't; not for any at
traction in the world"
Thus passes from the lightweight
field the greatest man in the class
next to Leonard, the peer Of them
all. The decision of Tender was un.
expected.
He will be twenty-siX years old
on his next birthday, and while he
has continually kept in the best Of
condition, the development of time
has lifted him from the pugilistic
division wherein he spent such a
glorious time fighting to the next
to the top rung only to stumble
when he met the arch-foe Leonard.
It was a sad decision for Lew
For years he lived for and dreamed
Of a career as lightweight champion
Of the world. He was always con.
fident he would triumph in the
end. But now he admits it's all
over. ...
The former lightweight ace now
is in the welterweight class. Nature
has so decreed, and when Lew next
enters the ring 1t will be as a
welterweight.
Lewis decision was seconded by
Phil r. Glassman, his manager, who
has .been an inseparable companion
and advisor of Tender since the
former newsboy first donned mitts
professionally
Both Lew and Glassman, being
always interested in championships,
they naturally will set the Welter-
weight crown as goal, and it is
more than possible Walker will
have an opportunity to defend his
title against Tender this summer,
either in Jersey City. New York, or
Philadelphia. ..... ..s.....

These two. with Heilmann, would
make a mighty tough trio for a
portsider to face in succession.
Wingo led the International League
In home runs last year and Fother.
gill boasted that honor the season
previous.
Right handed pitchers will not
find the Tigers much easier. Man.
ager Ty has only to look about him
to find seven good men who work
best with the willow from that side
of the plate facing first base.
This combination would find Cobb
in action himself, with Manush in
the right garden, Burke, Jones, and
Blue in the infield, Bassler catching
and either Whitehill or Cole on the
mound. Heilmann would be in his
regular position.
Southpaw pitchers just about

not repeat in that instance. Not
