Roseburg Review, j. L. Harper, who
lives at the end of Sixth street, in
North Roseburg, is the owner of calf
having but three legs. The calf was
born a few days ago and is apparently
as healthy as its more fortunate
brothers and sisters. The animal has
but one front leg, which is somewhat
larger than the leg of normal calf.
The hind legs of the calf are perfect.
The calf displays no ill-efferts as a re-
suit of its deformity, and Mr.. Harper
believes it will survive with proper at.
tentiOn. The calf is attracting consid-
cradle attention and is highly priced
by its owner.

FULTON should Be
EASY FOR Willard
Minnesota Giant, Physically
Only, is a Match for
Worlds Champion
ASPIRANT LACKS
RING EXPERIENCE

An opponent has been selected for
Tess Willard in the first battle in
which he will engage since he toppled
over the black champion I'm Havana
and captured the heavyweight crown.
The man chosen by the champion as
a tryout victim is Fred Fulton, a
giant from Rochester, Mimi, who Is
physically a match for the big cow
boy, but whose ringcraft and exper-
ience are decidedly on the short end
OF the proposition. Without a doubt
Willard decided that he needed a few
bouts under his belt before tackling
hard game like Moran, Levinsky.
Smith OF Dillon, and Fulton will be
The first of a few chaps who are not
regarded as dangerous, and who will
meet the champion in what really are
training bouts.
The amazing thing about the Full
ton-WilIard match is that the New
Orleans promoters are said 20 have
guaranteed Willard S32,500 for his
share. If the people of Louisiana and
adjacent States are willing TO pay
taat amount TO sec Willard I'm a bout
with practically a novice, that Is for
them to explain. No doubt the pro
moters are willing TO take the chance
because the Mardi Gras will be staged
at the same time in the Crescent City
and possibly they viii get their money
back. But as for a contest between
Willard and Fulton. It looks on paper
decidedly one sided.
However, if one listens to the argu
ments of Fultons doting manager
Willard will not be the champion
very shortly after he has entered the
ring with the Minnesotan. According
10 the fond manager. Fulton and VIII
lard met In a three.roundA exhibition
bout at Rochester. Mimi. May IA
1915. and that Fulton not only won OF
points. but also scored a knockdowr
in the second round. As matter O
fact. Fultons manager is bit aston
ished that willard after the rougl
manner in which he was handled by
Fulton. should consent to another
match with the mammoth Mime
eotan.
In setting forth his belief that Full
ton is sure to beat Willard, Fultoni
manager gives sixteen reasons foi
thinking his man will vanquish thu
champion, as follows:
1. He is as fast on his feet as ;
lightweight.
.. He can Outlook any heavyweight
in the business.
3. He has a straight left that n
heavyweight of the present time ca
block.
4. II necessary he can dance aroun
any heavyweight in the business 70
hours.
5. He has knockout punch j
either hand.
6. He has twenty nine clean knock
outs TO his credit.
z. He never had a black eye @
bloody nose.
s. He is Of Scotch-Irish parentag'
.. His height is feet IL inche
10. His reach is 81 IL inches.
H.. His weight is 220 pounds.
Il. He is % years old.
Is. He is an all-around athlete.
IA. He never chewed smoked 6
drank.
Is. He is positively sure no man
the world can beat him.
16. On the 14th OF May, 1915,
beat with ease Jess Willard. presel
champion OF the world. and knocke
him down in the second round; SOM
thing Jack Johnson couldn't do
twenty-six rounds.
1t is not unlikely that Fulton
manager viii have sixteen excuse
after the battle. and will naive
overlook the fact that his man WI
outclassed.
