But In the short length of time consumed by the first round he has the faculty of drawing his opponent out-- of malting mental ot defense and his preference of right or left hand punches. By the time Benny returns to his corner he usually has his camPAiEn maoped out. and with the Ijcll for the second round he is ready to carry A rccent bout In which Leonard appeared in New York offered a vivid Illustration of the split-second work ng of his grain and his ability to pick the flaws in an opponent.

TWO NEW MANAGERS FOR AMERICAN LEAGUE CLUBS IN 191S (Continued from Page One) Iniskers, and they made good by giving its a battle made it one of the most interesting games I ever saw. Our hardest gamo of the season was the one we had today. Michigan now will proceed to clean up Cornell and Pennsylvania and finish its season undefeated." Conoli Stewart of Nebraska offered no excuse for tho Cornhuskers' defeat.

"It was discouraging luck to be on the way to a touchdown and to fumble the ball into the armd of a Michigan jilnyor. only to have him run the full length of the field, but it is not up to me to file explanations alibis. Michigan played wonderful football and its offense could not be stopped. Our'- backs misrht and probably would have done bettor on a dry field, as we depended largely on speed and end runs, but the AVolvbrincs showed so much power on defense that I can compliment Michigan, while proud of our ability to hold tho opposition to one earned touchdown."

"Black Jack" Barry, piloted the Boston Red Sox this year, is now a member of the enrolling office of the naval reserves at Boston, and unless thb war is over ho will n.ot be with the club next season.

such be the case, Dick Koblitzel Is likely to be named the new mp ager of the former world's champions. Hobby has been a member of the Red Sox for several years and is well liked by his fellow players. He is a smart ball player and was one of Barry's lieutenants this season. However, bcfr.vo he decides on Hoblltzel Harry Frazee, the owner of the Boston club, will make another effort to bring Bill Carrigan out of retirement. The Rid Sox will be hard hit by the war next season, as Ernie Shore, one their star pitchers, and "Chick" Shorten, the outfielder, arc also with Barry at- the reserve' station in Boston.

Duffy Lewis, the outflldcr. is likely to be called at any mlnute'to report to thi Mare Island camp at California. Miller Hugglns, the little leader- of the St. Nationals, may succeed Bill Donovan as manager of the Yankees. Ban Johnson, president of the American league, according to reports, has Already made an offer to Hugglns on 'behalf of the Yankees.

However, Colonel Ruppcrt has not decided, to re- lea'ge Donovan as yet, and when he docp he will pick tho new man. Hugglns is on of the brainiest men in baseball.aml this' year his Cardinals finished third in tho National league. For a time Hoggins and his men threatened to take the lend from the Grants, but fell bnck on account of poor pitching.
