Denny Was Darling Of Cloak-And-Suiiers; Now Leonard Is One Of Them Himself Br NED MILLS NEW YORK, Feb. 18 (NEA) Benjamin Lelner lurvived two discouraging knockouts suffered before he was 17 to become the idol of New York's cloak-and-miters. Now Lciner the name became Leonard through the mistake of an announcer is one himself. Benny Leonard, now crowding SI and on the portly side, is also seen in the nation's rings as a referee. - Joining the maritime service at the outbreak of World War II as a lieutenant, Leonard headed its recreation and morale service bureau, was discharged after four years as a commander. He was an army boxing instructor in World War I. Leonard married Jacqueline Stern of California in 1934. and the couple is as much a part of New York as Times Square. Leonard is an accomplished after dinner speaker. Leonard was on of the mighty few lightweights com. pared with the Immortal Joe Cans. Old-timers will tell you that few fighters shifted two iiited fire from head to body and back again quit lik him. Coming out of New York's teeming lower east side in no decision days, Leonard had tp knock out clever Freddie Welsh to acquire the lightweight lead ership, May 28, 1917. Leonard knocked out every contender and name fighter in or near the division except Lew Tendler Mandot, Hammer Richie and Pinky Mitchell, Kilbane, Ritchie, White, Welling and Kansas, among them. Leonard was so good he could carry a iirst-class opponent with out the latter suspecting it. Among smaller men, the ring has never had an attraction to compare with Leonard. His iirst match with Lew Tendler at Jer sey City'3 Boyle's Thirty Acres drew $367,862. the return at the Polo Grounds $452,648, a record for lightweights that sUll stands. Leonard talked southpaw Tevdler out of the first fight, gave him a pasting in the second. Leonard retired unbeaten at a lightweight in 1925 aitur tTn yars as champion. After being on the sidelines seven years, Leonard was driven back into the thick, of things by realty setbacks in Jersey City. He was 36, fat and with thinning hair, yet boxed his way to a match with Jimmy McLarnin at Madison Square Garden, nearly dropping the younger Irishman in the opening round, protesting when Referee Arthur Donovan intervened in the sixth without his once having been off hit Pins Benny Leonard modeled him-- self after Joe Gans, has been the model since.

IB W'l There's not enough snow at Ash ton, so the community's Ameri can dog derby sled races next Saturday will be run on a new site, 22 miles north ot here. Almost every year since 1917 the race has been run, and only once In 1920 was it cancelled because of lack of snow. How ever, in 1934 wheels were at tached to the sleds because the ground was bare. This year A. R. (Bud) Cluusc, president of the Ashlou Dog Racing association, said a new site was decided upon. Snow on the ground there Is three and a half feet deep, and the weuther is cold enough to Indicate there will be little melting before time for the event. A two-mile zig-zag course for dog sled races and a quarter mile straight track for cutter and bob sled races will be built. The derby will be ten miles long, with the teams making five laps on the two-mile course. Everett Heseman, 1946 win ner and victor four times, will seek the derby trophy once more. Last year's runner-up, Austin Neelcy of Teton, also will run again.

Armory Card Rounded Out Rounding out the curd for what appears to be the best wrestling docket for the Klam ath Falls armory In many, many moons, two prelim bouts to the Grey Mask-Billy Wcidner fracas will be of four rounds each. In the opener, Buck Lipscomb, the Indiana ruffian, is to tangle with another gent from his part of the country. Buck Weaver, out of Louisville, Ky., and the University of Indiana. Frank Ic Hart, the Canadian hunting lodge owner, goes to the mat with Tough Tony Ross of Salem, for the middle bout of the card. The Grey Mask-Weldner affair will be superintended over by two referees this time, one In the ring and one out, because of much unfavorable comment drawn by Referee Wally Moss for his officiating of the last two Weidncr-Hood affairs. On both occasion the Mask slipped by Moss to smear Weldner with additional head butts while he was being given the count. Now It will be the duty of one referee to keep an eye on one battler and the other official to keep a watch ovr the other in crucial moments of the fray. Lytell Pounding For Recognition BALTIMORE.
