He went from 200 to 238. to meet DempBey when h,e lost his crown in July 191!*, at Toledo, he said. What Willard is concerned over, however is the obstacle that / pre- vented Bob Fitzsimmons from re turning to the ring after he, like Willard, had yearned for the smoke of battle. That is Willard’s age. or his alleged age. He says that he is 36 though some of the record books for years have had a blrthdate down that makes him 39. The state law prevents men over 38 boxing in New York. Willard will attend the battle at Madison Square Garden Friday night which gives some foundation to the story that he will meet John son.

Fate Plays Big Part In Career ' Of Many Stars NEW YORK—Injuries are often the turning point In the career of many pitchers. That is, certain pitchers reach stardom after in juries seem to have threatened to end their career*- Take Joe Bush for instance. H» came back after trouble with his arm which kept him tout of the game for a year. Losing much of his speed as a result, he invented the fork ball, which was largely (responsible for success Ma^t year. Injuries to the pitching arm, i a rule, force the twirler to wo: more with his brain* and depenjd less ton his natural resources s7 M An accident early in his . pit tng career caused Carl Mays silffor much pain every time lje threw a ball overhanrted or sidQ- arm. He went to the underhand ball as a last resort and developed one of the most deceptive deliv eries In the game. * Urban Faber of the White sdx and Shocker of St. Louis are two other stars who are jnuch better pitchers sine# suffering injuries that for time slowed them up. Instead of depending entirely on their great speed or sharp curve, they now work ton the batter, mix them up, hence are doubly effec tive. ^ Camp Is Strong For Michigan U. ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Eleven of Michigan's football stars have been honored with places on Wal ter Camp's All-American team. Only four teams. Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Pennsylvania, have received more nominations than Michigan. For years' those teams were known Us the "Big Four" and practically dominated foot ball. Camp haa selected AD-Amorlca teams for JJ years and has Includ ed 33 western stars in his myth! cal lineups, five on southern teams and two on far western. The oth er 323 selections represented east ern teams. Michigan, with 11 se lections, has one-third of the west's selections to its credit. 1 WilUe Heston was the first Michigan player selected. That was In 1*03. Barry Klpkc of this year’s eleven was the honored se lection for 1922. in charge.

The next morn ing the Macon Telegraph carried the following tribute; “Katherine Tift-Jones is so completely an ar tist that even those who heard her Friday night and had never, been especially interested in dramatic art, were moved to the very depths by her wonderful voice -work and the exquisite finish of her per formance.” On last Friday she appeared be- fore the Congressional Club in Washington.

I am sure of one thing, if there are any crooked spirits where Dr. John Brown dwells, they will not seek io associate with him. I remember that Bunyan tells of how calm Mr, Honest was when he came to cross the river. He said that back in life he had asked one Good Conscience to meet him at the river and see him over. I am quite certain Good Conscience met John Brown when he came to the river. I ! hope, when I enter the wider i life, I may go Wh*e Dr. Brown is: itcH- will be glad to see him. - * DAVID C.
