HOW WON THE TITLE-No. 6
BY JESS WILLARD.

1t happened that when l landed in
Chicago / didn't cut much of a swath
because it appeared that the sporting
editors had been surfeited with white
hopes" now happily extinct. The
market had been glutted with a lot of
big fellows. good, bad and Indifferent,
but most OF them of the latter classi-
ficatiOn and as a result what l had to
say didn't get much attention.
Still the bold ambition was there
and l kept whacking away at it
gamely enough, determined to force
my way along. l had three fights in
1912 near Chicago l whipped Bull
Young IN six rounds in Fort Wayne.
Ind, then trimmed Frank Bowers in
St Charles, Ill. in three rounds and
then, down at South Chicago l again
defeated John Young, this time in
five rounds
Then it was that Charley Cutler.
who was handling my affairs. decided
20 try the metropolitan game. So we
went east.
The first fight l got there was with
Arthur Pelky, the man who was in the
ring with Luther McCarty the day
the latter died in an Alberta ring.
That was on July %, 1912 / bested
Pelky without much trouble. but the
bout didn't seem TO make much of
hit They continued TO laugh at me
but I knew I could beat all of them
and kept whacking away at il. Three

That seemed 10 create a little more
respect for me but il didn't get me
much in a money sense. Finding my
self deserted in New York and with
out much money. l went TO Tom
O'ROurke. but that veteran manager
wanted 50 per cent OF my money. so
l dropped him. Billy Gibson advised
me 10 hook up with Billy Heckler, his
brother-in-law. which I did.

they laughed at me / said I would

i didn't need a second invitation
ana went TO Buffalo. 1t was worse
there as they offered me a $50 pre-
hminary and nothing else. But l
found a little club owner who was
willing TO put me on in a main event
and l knocked Sailor White out for
him in one round. Then they all
wanted me. Finally they offered me
20 per cent TO meet one Round Davis.
but Davis went TO New York where
Soldier kearns knocked him out.
Then l asked for % per cent, saying
Davis was not as good a card As be-

BOWLING SEASON
IS ABOUT ENDED
All of Local Leagues Will Have
Completed Schedules BY the
End of Next Week-TWo
Tournaments Coming.

our bowling season is fast drawing
10 close as all of the local league
schedules will have been finished with
in a fortnight. The Clothiers' league
concluded its schedule during the past
week, the Adlers winning the panic
hands down. They started out in
front and were never headed, not even
threatened. The VernOns and Spires
finished a tie for the next position
while the Lvingstons were a bad last.
The latter deserve a great deal Of
credit for showing as well as they did
in the finals as they were positively
Outclassed at the beginning of the sea-
son.
Eight of the remaining eleven
this week, namely the Antlers. Elks.
Federals. Postofice. divers. Singers
and United. In the first five and the
latter named leagues the eventual re-
suit has practically been determined
although there is always an outside
chance for good looking things TO go
wrong. But the oliver and Singer
leagues have a thrilling finish ahead
of them. In the former organization
the Pattern and Sales are on even
terms. the formers win over the Sales
in last weeks games being response
ole for existing conditions.
Singers Remarkable Finish.
In the Singer league things are even
more complicated as three teams are
even waiting for the bell. 1t is
unfortunate that neither of these
teams are scheduled against each 9TH
er in the finals. But this gives oppor-
tunity for all OF the beligerents to be
tied at the close of the schedule hos
tilitieS. The United league had a good
race last week but the disposal of the
Silver Edges by the Senators, who
had previously been tie for the lead.
practically gives the Senators the
glory.
While the leagues are and will be
out Of commission the attention OF the
craft Will still be arrested in tOurna-
ment play. The Indiana Bowling As
ISOLATION tournament will continue I'M
til April 26th at Mishawaka At Bar
