Leonard Picks S
Pastor Winner

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-Benny
Leonard, former world light
weight champion, picked himself
a limb today and crawled out on
it in behalf of Bob Pastor, New
York heavyweight, who meets Joe
Louis at Madison Square Garden
on January 30.
Having watched Pastor in many
of his % professional fights and
in his current training, Leonard
said:
81 expect Pastor to win the
decision. All he has to do, in
my opinion, is to box Louis, who
is strictly a cOunter-fighter, and
Pastor must make the Negro
come to him and box all the
way.
, Pastor is a better boxer than
LOuiS-hOw do you like that?
And he can win this one with
his head. But l wouldn't advise
him to try for a knockout. That
might prove disastrous"
