LONGER FIGHT SUGGESTED
Champion Emphatically Denies
Existence of Reason for Wishing
to "Save" Opponent.
BAN FRANCISCO. Cal., April 21.
.Benny Leonard, lightweight champion
of the world, quietly and emphactlcal
ly denies that he ever Intentionally
permitted Johny Dundee to "stick the
limit" with him in any of their fights.
"I know," says Benny, "that the
newspaper men of New York ofen ac
cuse me of letting Dundee stick. But
when they say or write that they are
treating me unfairly.
"The. reason I don't stop Dundee is
because I can't hit in the short fights.
"Dundee is the hardest man to hit
I ever boxed or ever saw. If you ever
(aw Dundee box you know that what
I'm saying is so.
"He boxes away down, like he's
picking corn off the floor, and when
ou try to hit him he either stoops
iown lower or he Jumps half way
across the ring.
"I am like any other fighter. 1 hit
hardest when I hit straight out.
"I can't put all my force In an
eppercut and no other fighter can;
when I'm boxing Dundee 1 can't hit
straight out because there's nobody
straight out in front of me to hit at.
"The only thing 1 can do is upper
cut, to try and straighten him up,
and even to uppercut I have to stoop.
Champion Liable to Criticism.
"That's where the trouble often
comes in. I am the-champion. When
I'm in the ring I have to show some
class; I must work like a champion.
If I miss or make a misstep there is
criticism.
"So when I'm boxing Dundee I can't
ail in and let go uppercuta in the
tnere hppe of hitting him.
"If 1 did I'd probably miss a dozen
or a hundred times and if I hit hint
at all it would be only luck.
"Then, when I missed, the news
papermen would come out and say
that I was going back; or they'd say
that Dundee made me miss and look
like a boob.
"There's no more reason for me
aving' Dundee than there Is for 'sav
ing' any other fighter.
"There will always be plenty of
men for me to fight. If there are no
good lightweights I can go up and
tight the welterweights.
"Big fellows are no harder to fight
than are some of the smaller boys.
"I would rather fight many good
welterweights I know than to fight
Dundee.
"Gets me sore to fight the guy and
not be able to stop him and then to
have the newspaper men come out
and say I let him stick.
"One trAuble is that the newspaper
men are inclined to overrate me. No
matter who I'm fighting the newspa
per men think I ought to be able to
atop him any time 1 wish.
"Dundee can't hurt me much. Oh, of
course, he can hurt me; but he
doesn't.
"Any fighter can hurt you If 'you
let him hit you. These light tappers
you hear about wouldn'.t be light
tappers at all if you stuck, out your
chin at them.
"But what I mean Is that Dundee Is
always so busy jumping up and down
and around when he's boxing that
be can't put anything behind his
punches.
"You can't hit when you're up In
the air. And you can't hit when you're
crouched down to the floor like Dun
flee crouches.
'What I'd like to do is get Dundee
In a long fight like you used to have
in California.
"Then I'd Just wait Until he tired
klmself out Jumping and nail him on
the chin.
"He'd never go 20 rounds, like he
Can go six and eight in the east now.
"I don't like that Jumpy kind of
fighting. I wouldn't Jump around
like Dundee If I could.
Flgater Mast Have Punch.
"If a man is a fighter he's got to
be able to punch. The punch is the
most Important thing In fighting.
But to punch hard you've got to
et your feet into the canvas. When
sou land you have to be braced.
"You have to stand up straight toe.
When Dundee's stooping over he
can't land a hard punch to save his
deck.
"But he knows that when he's
Stooping over and ready to Jump
away i can t nit him hard either.
"That's all I can say about why I
eon i KnocK mm out. What sense
Would there be in me 'saving' Dundee
and stopping all the others?
If I wanted to do that kind of
business I could have saved a whole
bunch of them.
"I have nothing against the news
papermen who don't think I am tell
ing the truth.
"They are paid to write what they
Itfcink. And, nearly always, what they
think Is rlgbt.
"But in this Instance they are
wrong. If it were possible to get a
finish match with Dundee I'd fight
as fast as I could get Into the ring.
"Every place I go I get that Dun
dee business thrown at me. They
ay he has my goat.
"He hasn't. And he knows he
hasn't. He knows that he'll never be
able to whip me and that some day
he'll Jump once too often and I'll
cop him.
"But until I do I'll "have to stand
for a little kidding and Dundee will
add to his pocketbook from the fact
that the world's champion can't stop
him.
"I don't begrudge Dundee anything
lie makes. He's all right and I like
him.
"But I wish he'd fight me once and
agree not to crouch or Jump the way
he does."

THERE are a lot of surprises in
"Bxcuse My Dust," the automo
bile and race drama which will
continue to show at the Liberty the
ater until tomorrow midnight.
Wallace Reid, its star, is not one
of them, nor Is his co-partner in
thrills and honors, Theodore Roberts,
another. They are the same as al
ways. The one is handsome, likable
and adaptable and the other Is Just
Theodore Roberts, whimsical, mili
tant and tender always a bit unex
pected and always a delight.
Surprises, to put it mildly, simply
infest the plot of "Excuse My Dust."
In the first place the romance, whichl
is secondary in interest to the fight
between the Darco and Fargo, makers
of racing motors, concerns only a
an and nis wife with not even the
merest reference to such persons as
might complete the generally pres
ent eternal triangle. Secondly, in the
all-Important race, the hero does not
come first with the villain a close
second nor does the villain come
first and then have to forfeit the
race .because of his villainy. Tet
there is at no time confusion as to
which competitor is the hero and who
has ever yet seen a hero defeated?
Another surprise for a successful
racing picture is that no one dies, is
killed or commits suicide by con
veniently rolling down a precipice.
"'Excuse My Dust" is a sequel to
"The Roaring Road," in that the char
acters are the same. It has much of
the good fun, real dramatic worth
and general pleasing qualities of "The
Roaring Road" and in many ways
excels.

Ed Rosenbaum, special representa
tive of Anita Stewart, who is assist
ing with the presentation of "In Old

SECOND CHOICE OPPOSED
Indorsement of Alternate Said to
Indicate Lack of Good Faith -Toward
Senator's Candidacy.
SEATTLE, Wash.. April 21. (Spe
cial.) In a formal statement issued
today and given ' wide circulation,
Harry Denton Moore, president of the
Johnson-for-Presldent club of Se
attle, addressing himself to the dele
gates to the republican state conven
tion, goes on record as opposing the
indorsement of any second-choice
candidate for president at Belling
ham. He declared that the club de
sires "harmony in party affairs which
will bring success to state and na
tional candidates of the republican
party in the coming electon," and
further says that the Johnson club is
taking no part in the contest for na
tional committeeman, "because It is a
metter not within the stated objects
of our club."
Continuing, he says:
"We believe that Senator Poindax
ter should receive the indorsement of
the convention and the delegation
should be instructed in his favor, be-
Lcause of his courageous fight against
the intamous league covenant, for
which we should show our approval;
because he is from our state; because
he is from the west and knows its
needs and understands the present
Asiatic peril.
t "We are opposed to the naming of
any second choice candidate because
it would show lack of good faith to
ward Senator Poindexter'a candidacy
and greatly weaken him before the
convention, and create dissention in
our party ranks, which would imperil
republican success in this state. Such
action would be deemed by many to
be the result of machine politics and
resented as such.
We are not fighting any of the
aspirants for the honor of the presl
oentlal nomination, believing them
all personally worthy and well qua!
Hied, but we believe that if the name
of Senator Poindexter should be with
drawn at any time, then we should
throw our support to Senator John
son tor the same principal reason
that Justify us In supporting Sen
tor foinaexter, because he is the
standard-bearer 1 nthe fight against
the league and understands the situ
ation on the coast, has shown his ex
ecutive ability to deal with the prin
cipal questions before us here, while
acting as governor of California, has
had more experience in public life
than any of the other candidates and
has always made good, and finally
he has the confidence of all classes
of the people and can poll more votes
than any other candidate, as shown
by the primaries of Michigan. Illinois
and Nebraska."
