CURLEY DISCUSSES

Jess Willard Had Only One

NEW YORK. April Colts funny
thing, but there were more folks say
ing, II told you so" and Il knew he'd
do it," Immediately after Jess Willard
beat Jack Johnson for the heavy
weight championship of the world
than at any other time in the history
of pugilism," says Jack Curley, who
promoted the Johnson.Willard fight
And in my opinion it wasn't plain
Grass Dragging, but 1t was an actual
fact that more persons expected Will
lard to win than expected him to lose
OF course. you're going to ask why"
right off the reel. and I'm going to tell
you. It's from psychological angle
that I'm going to take up the fight
In the first place, we imbued Willard
with the idea that he was going to
win right from the very start, and we
didn't allow any doubt ever to assail
him. Also, we were firmly convinced
that Willard would win. and We i'm
pressed this idea upon everybody we
met.

BY I'VE I mean Harry Frazee, Mr.
Weber, Tom Jones and myself. 1t was
sort of mouth-to-mouth message con-
yeyed by few at the start. but grad
ually growing into an endless chain
until thousands of persons were OF the
same opinion that we were.
Here's just how the thing happened
Not long after the Johnson-Moran
fight in Paris, Mr.. Harry Frazee and
l were chatting and the subject of a
real white hope-one who would really
stand a chance OF beating johnson for
the title-came up. FraZee and
racked out our brains trying to figure
out a man who might regain the
championship for the white race.
Moran had just been eliminated, so
we didn't have to figure him at all.
Gunboat Smith. we decided, wasn't the
man. Jim Coffey was too slow. too in
experienced-in fact, Jim wouldn't do.
The others lacked either size. strength
or something else that was very es-
sential.
Finally we had Willard the only pos
bible contender left.
Hes big enough" said.
And he's strong enough" retorted
Frazee. :.
He has the wallop," I ventured,
and:
He showed that he can take it and
is game" supplemented Frazee.
He's the man." we decided
And one other thing. There may
have been half dozen men in the
world who might have been able to
beat Willard in limited round bout
Just five minutes before Jess won the
world championship from Johnson, but

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: For months / have been bearing with
The Tribune in its attitude in regard 10
woman suffrage, and have endeavored to be
charitable, as The Tribune and have been
hereditary friends. but as time has pro-
crossed and morning after morning | have
been compelled to see your advocacy of this
cause spread further and further across your
columns, TO the observation of the truth 70
the contrary and the Haunting Of those who
are not lined up with you, have come TO the
conclusion that old friends must part
1t may seem, and doubtless does appear to
you, very small thing that one subscriber in
little Pennsylvania city should cease to be
reader. But, sir, am one of great fra
ternity that you may contemptuously term
"the circulation" which, nevertheless. con
stitutes the strength Of your paper. | pride
myself upon knowing quite well the spirit of
that fraternity; | have learned il through
many conversations IN many states; have
learned il through a ten years residence in
New York City. That spirit, if | may pre-
sumo to instruct you is eminently conserva-
tive, rendered such by the fact that it is the
expression of the mind of the responsible
class IN every community VI Nle Nilt
banker, the judge, the careful lawyer, the
property owner and the more discerning Of
the clergy-the men who have everything TO
lose by the upheaval OF society brought about
by radicalism, which is the essence Of
woman's suffrage.
Your attitude does not represent the ira
ditonal spirit Of The Tribune-the spirit, for
instance, which animated it three generations
Jfatk Ia, ID
the fact that mis- name stood fourth in the list
of subscribers, the spirit which through all
the subsequent years made it family in
stitution.
However, those days are gone, and with it
the old spirit of The Tribune. II may be re-
vived under another management, but in the
mean time |, for one, will read another news
paper. So ends three generations Of The
Tribune in the Merrman family.
