Champion Says It Will Eliminate
Retreating and Will Speed Up
Battle Just to His Liking.
' By JESS WILLARD, |
Heavyweight Champion, of the World.i
TOLEDO, OHIO, June 14 ~—Tex|
Rickards has asked me to consent o
she cutting of the ring down to a
20-foot square, the Marquis of
Queenshury regulation ring, which as
everybody ought to know isn't a ring
at all, but a square measuring 24 feet
on each side
I consented immediately, 1 under
stand Dempsey has also agreed to
the decrease, the effect of the change
will be to take 176 square feet of side
stepping and retreating space away
from somebody.
I'll, say that somebody won't be
Jesgs Willard
On the face of things the change
‘ought to favor me. Anyhow wnat
ever Tex Rickard does, I'm for,
ADDED SEAT SPACE.
Tex will be able to put another row
of seats in the four-foot space that
will be taken from the ring. I be
lieve that the real reason for reduc
tion was to speed up the fight. You
see a 12-round affair gives only a
limited time within which to decide
a championship. If these 12 rounds
are fought in a 24-foot ring a sprin
ter could keep away from a slower,
stronger man long enough perhaps
to stay the limit.
You remember how Charlie Mitchell
side-stepped and sprinted away from
John L. Sullivan in their fight in
France, which is entered on the books
as a draw. Now [ don't want this
little affair of ourt on July 4 to be
& no-decision bout. [ want to mix
ft from bel Mo bell and I'd rather
fight on a handkerchlef than on” a
larger carpet,
A lot of people will say “That's all.
bunk. Jess is only talking that way to
make folks believe he is confident.” I
really mean it, the closer we can
[come together without elinching the
gsooner and more emphatic will be
the decigion. The Dempsey people
have made Their boasts abput how
their man is going to break me In
two by pounding away at my mid
section. If he will only stick to that
program, there is going to be a bat
tle worth traveling across the oen
tinent to see. Clinches, however, may
interfere with the plan of campalign.
let us hope they won't
TAKES CAR AWAY.
Tex nlso dropped a hint that com
ing from such a wise old bird is view
ed by me as a request. After one
experience as a passenger in my new
car with myself as driver he suggest
ed that it might be just as well If |
got me a chauffeur. I'll admit I'm
pretty bad in traffic. Tex is mighty
careful, as the fight approaches to
ward the principals. You will recall
that he compelled Jack Johnson to
glve up his racing chariot after he
had signed up to fight Jeffries. It was
my awkwardness in traffic that was
the only danger. He was afraid that
some Toledo street car might give
me a little bump and would upset his
well-laid ptans for July 4

former heavyweight chamgion of

By JAMES J. CORBETT.
If Jess Willard should knock out
Jack Dempsey on July 4 it probably
means that Willard will become the
only retired heavyweight champlion in
the modern history of the ring. For
then there’d be no one left for Jess to
fight
The many bouts that have taken
place In the heavyweight ranks during
the past few years have seen the de
throning of many cld idols, the shat
tering of many “hopes,” and the
downfall of more than a score of men
who once were reckoned as possible
conquerors of the pugilistic king.
Frank Moran has practically quit
the ring. Jim Flynn passed out of the
“major” division long ago. The
knockout defeat which Dempsey
handed to Carl Morris wrote “finis”
on the ambitions that Morris hafl}
nursed since he became the first whne‘
hope far back in 198. Fulton never
again can be taken seriously. Wei
rert, Brennan, Coffey, Cowler, bc-‘
vinsky, Dillon—all have passed ont
herond the horizon that embraced
only top-notech "heavies.” ‘
Georges Carpentier, of France, Is
the only heavyweight in the world.‘
other than Jack Dempsey, who is
reckoned by some to have a chance
with Willard. And it is unlikely that
Carpentier, at his very best, ever
would have given Willard more than
a mild workout. The French young
ster has been touted highly—but so
were hundreds of others. Carpentier
fought some good fights, but while at
his best he was whipped by such men
as Blily Papke, Frank Klaus and Joe
Jeanette, who can not ever be clagsed
with Willard.
Carpentier Is not quite 6 feet tall
and beams around 180. That's 2
inches shorter than Dempsey and 15
'poundu lighter. Surely if Dempsey is
- supposed to be{@t a great disadvan
tage because of Willard’'s bulkk, Car
pentier would be more so. Amd Car.
pentier has been away from the ring
for nearly four years, during which
time he became “rusty”--and the rust
of Inactivity rarely wears off a fistic
periormer,

Toledo Already, Paying All
Expenses—Final $1,000,000
By FRANK G. MENKE.
Staff zmupondon! of the I. N. 8.
TOLEDO, June 14—Tex Rickard is
“on velvet” after the biggest gamble
in ‘pugilistic history. ‘
It was announced today that thel
advance ticket sale for the Willard-
Dempsey fight on July 4, have gone
beyond $400,000,
The total expenses incurred by the
promoter, including $127,500 oto the
fighters and about SIOSOOO for the
arena approximate_ $325,000.
Present indications now are that
the gate may total around $1,000,000,
which means a “clean-up” of about
$600,000 for Rickard and those asso
ciated with him im the promotion of
the clash.
It was admitted here today that the
list of referees being considered by
the National Boxing Board has been‘
r:ceived, but “for certain reasons” it
was decided not to make the names
publie.
It is the belief here that Ollie Pe
cord, of Toledo, will be the man to
land the refereeing job, but that two
judges also will officiate. The ma
jorltz vote of the trio probably will |
decide the contest in case it goes thel
full route.
Jack Welsh, of San Francisco, who
presided at the Willard-Johnson fight,
may be one'of the judges, the other
pessibility is Jack 8. Kelly, of Yon-‘
kers, N. Y. |
RAIN OR SHINE. “
“THe Willard-Dempsey fight goes
on at 3 p. m. July 4, rain .or shihe,”
announce the promoters. “The fight
¢ 8 have agreed to this. However, it
hasn't rained in Toledo on July 4 for
the past tfirteen years and we are
hopelful that the dry spell won't be
broks "
A few scattornz bets laid around
town lave made Willard favorite at
odds of 10 to 7, with plenty of takers.
Derrpsey partisans apparently haad
been holding back. hoping for 2 to 1.
But the chances are they'll never
get it
Among the “freak” propositions so
far coffered are these:
SIOO to $2,500 that Dempsey will
knock out Willard in the first
round.
SIOO to $2,000 (hat Willard does
not auswer the call of time for the
third round.
SSOO to $5,000 that Willard will be
knocked out before the end of the
sixth round.
SSOO to $250 that the fight ends in
a knockout,
The giant Kansan drove Hempel all
around the ring, slamming him with
almost every blow he carried in stock,
but, fortunately for Hempel he was
careful not to put all his steam be
hind the drives,
; Mcnahan went ont to slug with
‘Willa.rd and a merry set-to resulted.
Jess banged his partner somewhat
more viciously than he had Hempel
and Monahan came right back and
clubbed the big fellow with a fusillade
of ove hard rights. Jess hasn't per
fected any adequate defense so far to
save himself from such leads.

ring men have exhibited sufficient
courage ‘o essay the role of ‘“trial
hqises,” for hoth Wilarl and Demp
sey, but just about one day has cone
vinced eacn tha* life is toc sweet to
risk it for a few Lvndred dollars pet
woek.
JESS WEIGHS 250,
And so Demursey has been forced to
be content with Bill Tatea and the
Jamaica Kid, while Hempel and Mon
ahan perform the task of mixing it
with the champion. As for the latter
pair it ean be said that both are get.
ting rather dizzy.
