When this arrangement was made, the next sten to be taken was to get in touch with ''Ma" Leonard. The latter realized that the terms were fair and consented to have Bennie come out to Detroit. Another interesting incident regard- ing the Jewish boxer, Bennie Leonard, is brought up by the challenge to Lew Tendler, of Philadelphia, also a Jewish lightweight. Leonard gave Tendler time until October 1 to ac- cept or reject his challenge, pledging also that in case of acceptance he would donate $2,500 to the Hebrew building fund now conducted by the Federated Jewish Institutions of New York. Tendler, as a Jew, is thereby placed in a peculiar position in that Ile cannot sidestep now without do- is ing a lot of explaining.

After discovering the be- ginning of an agitation among his men which would very likely have led to serious results, the commander took immediate steps to let it be known that no disturbances of such a nature would lie countenanced. : ,NPlilitIVIEVI'MPIDEIMEINENIERMINMI.IHEEHICEIRMEEMEM ENERMER el 'M 1WAYNE COUNTY and HOME 1 SAVINGS BANK le . + General Motors Trucks I %• * ki Yj Ton, 1 1, 12 , 2, 31/2 and 5 Tons' Capacity.
