Benny Would Come
Out of Retirement to
Battle Walker for
$200,000
NEW YORK. Feb. 2L—Benny
Leonard has not fought his last
fight. regardless of his signed state-
.ment to that effect. a. statement in
which. pathos and mother love ran
along on a. high octave.
This declaration was made today
by close friends who split no infin-
itives in predicting that the dimident.
retiring young man would be seen
in a local ring next summer for one
last shot at the big. important
money. The occasion. they said.
would bring Leonard and Mickey
Walker together in their long de-
ferred battle for the welterweight
title and that Benjamin would be
recompenaed thereby to the matter
of $200,000.
Parential objection to the sordid
engagement. it is said. will be over-
come by the size of the reward. al-
though it is generally believed that
the Leonard fortunes are not in im-
mediate need of repair. Still. ac-
cording to Benny's friends. he is not
the rich man that popular fancy
would have him, It is intimated
that the “fall Street sharpshooter-s
have scored several bull's eyes and
that Benjamin's roll has afforded an
excellent target. ~
“Bonnv wasentlrely sincere when
he retired from the lightweight
title." ode of his local intimates de-
clared. "He knows he cannot make
the weight and be strong. He knows
Jects to his continuing in the fight-
ing game indefinitely. But she can
be won over. Benny hits had to do
it for other fights and he can do it
again. There is entirely too much
money for him in a. \Valker match
to be left lying around idle."
“'hich is not without a. modicum
of truth. If Leonard can get $200.-
000 for his end. and there is plenty
of loose money which says that he
can. it would smack of fistic heresy
for him to refuse. For less than an-
hour's activity in the ring. he can
thus make more money than in a
year and a half on tho vaudeville
stage. providing theatrical audiences
continued to evince sufficient inter-
est in his act.
If Leonard remains out of the
ring long enough. he will become
merely ii. bright young man trying
to get along. of which vaudeville has

thing will not go forever. unless Ben-
lv is as good an actor as he is a

to reasonable doubt.
TO CENTRALIZE f
SPORTS IN THE
HIGH SCHOOLS
Make Plans at Confer-
ence in New Haven
Last Saturday
.\'l-3\\‘ HAVEX. Feb. :4.—A new
plan for centralized control ot‘ state.
high school athletics came into.
being Saturday when the board of~
control of the Connecticut inter-V
scholastic Conference met in this
city and voted to take the necessary
steps for the conference to assume
entire charge of the eligibility of
high school athletes and control of
secondary school athletics generally.
according to an announcement made
here today. The conference has un-
der way plans for two state high
school basketball tournaments and
will arrange state tournaments til-
30 in other sports such as tennis and
swimming and the major sports of
baseball and football.
Heretoforc the question of eligib-
ility rules for high school athletes
-was handled by three separate bod-
ies. the state head masters' club.
state teachers' association and the
state athletic conference. resulting in
duplication of effort. The headmast-
crs' club and state teachers' asso-
ciation recently voted to transfer
athletic activities to the athletic
conference. which through its board
of control on Saturday made the
necessary arrangements and chang-
es of Constitution and bylaws to as-
sume the new 0 ligation.
"These changes will mark an im-
portant step in the history of Con-
necticut high school athletics.” says
the announcement made today. “The
Connecticut inlet-scholastic confer-
ence .was to organize five years ago.
Its membership consists of high
schools only which are represent.
by their principals. so that the dir-
ection of the athletic policy is still
in the proper hands. In its organisa-
tion there ia'a board of control

Goodrich in Victory
Over Eddie ~ Wagner
In Other Bout "
NEW YORK; Feb. 24.—Tommy
O'Brien of Milwaukee. sprang a
startling upset in lightweight circles
last night when he knocked out
George ("K. 0.") Chaney. of Balti-
more. in the sixth round of a tan
round match at Madison Square
Garden. The light was the head-
liner of two matches in the light-
weight elimination tournament stag-
ed under the auspice! 0‘ the hew

Wagner. of Philadelphia. This light
was declared a draw at the termina-
tion of the tenth round and was or-
dared to go two more rounds by
virtue of the commission's with: on
even decisions in ten round encount-
ers. Goodrich was given the deci-
sion at the end of the 12th round.
The crowd voiced its disapproval at
the verdict in a boisterous demon-
stration which lasted for 15 minutes
after the match had ended.
The eliminatoln of Chaney was an
upset as the Baltimore lad had been
figured the outstanding favorite to
win the title vacated by Benny Leo-
nard.
After the light it was announced
that O‘Brien had broken a bone in
his right hand early in the fight
when be upset the Baltimorian with
a wicked right. -
Prior to the end. ‘ Chaney had
been winning all the “av. O'Brien
having been floored once in the first
round for a. count of nl’ne and hurt
by the relentless body attack which
the hard hitting Chaney had direct-
ed at him.
Knockout Sudden.
The knockout came with dramatic
snddenneas. O'Brien had been run-
ning away from Chaney when out
of the air O'Brien swung a wicked
right. almost in self defense. It
caught Chaney off balance and be
stretched on the rosincd floor for a
count of six. lie was up and at
O'Brien again but the Milwaukeo‘i
boy did not follow up his advantage. -
Chaney landed two or three more
body blows which caused O’Brien
to writhe in pain bu he continued
to punch away at Chaney while
backing up. Then again that right
aallied forth toppling Chaney to the.
floor. He rolled up in a heap and
it looked as if the fight was over
but at the count of eight he bound—
ed to his feet and started to cover
up. O‘Brien encouraged by his site-
cess. followed through and florred
Chaney again. this time lur the full
count. The end came after one
minute and two seconds of fighting
in the sixth round.
Goodrich Gets Draw.
The Goodrich-“'agner affair was
a less spectacular contest than the
finale. Wagner fought an aggres-
sive fight. outboaing his opponent
but Goodrich rallied iii the latter
rounds and was given a draw deci-
sion. He continued his work in the
two extra rounds and was given an
unpopular decision.
O'Brien came in for the main go
at the top weight of ’35 pounds
while Chaney weighed 134 3'4.
Goodrich weighed 134 1-2 and “’as‘
