WEINERT IS A COMING PUG
Nineteen. Year-0ld Youngster is
About Best Bet in Heavyweights
Outside of Willard.
HAS LICKED MoToRMAN CoFFEY

NEW YORK. Sept. 1i.-Heavyweight
contenders come and 30 with bewiider-
ing rapidlty Every few months sees n
complete change In the situation, as the
man who has enjoyed n brief spell OF
popularity is forced 20 give way for some
other. This season Charley Weinert's
star seems to be In the ascendant.
Apparently weinert Is due 10 last a lit
tie longer than the average seeker after
wlllard's title. Already he has met and
defeated Jim Coffey. Gunboat Smith.
Porky Flynn, Battling Levensky and Jim
Savage. Only Frank Moran is missing
to make the list complete. and Judging
by past performances Moran will go the
way of the others when he faces the Jer-
sey speed merchant. Some record for
i9-yeAr-old youngsteri
The one thing missing that would
make welnert the sensation Of the age
is n knockout punch So far his record
IL barren OF decisive wins. all his VIC
tories having been gained on the point
basis. But for that weakness weinert
would now be In line for championship
match. since he has eliminated all the
contenders that are worth considering
But although weinert has established
us HhHEthldNy ONGT lne Itn-TOunu ais
tance he seems TO have reached the end
OF his rope. for the time being at least.
Tho sporting world will not accept n
heavyweight who lacks a punch. Jim
Corbett did get by. but no was an excep-
ton. And even Corbett won the title
with knockout. although his defeat OF
Sullivan was nothing much to boast OF
owing to the latters poor condition.
Hns Plenty of Time.
But Weinert has plenty of time &c
acquire a real wallop. He is big enough
for all requirements. being we'll over six
feet In height. He IL taking on weight
rapidly and II win not be long before he
reaches the 9O0-pound mark. At that fis-
ure even wiilard's huge bulk should
have no terrors for him, provided he re-
tains his speed as he gains in flesh.
There seems to be no good reason
why Weinert cannot learn to hit effec-
lively. He Is a splendidly muscled fell
low. and II Is evident that the power Is
there II he can only learn to make use
OF It.
Whether weinert win retain his good
form as he grows older is a question
As a rule a boxer who begins too young
becomes burnt out by the time he
reaches hls full development. weInert
began boxing three years ago. and II will
be at least three years more before he
has fully mAtured. BY that time he may
be worn out by the strain of continually
training and fighting. The fact that he
10 unable 10 cut short q fair average OF
his bouts 10 a round or 30 means that
he must do considerable more work than
the man who can make quick WORK OF
an opponent.

WILLARD WILLING TO FIGHT
Champion Finds Only Remaining
Way to Collect Spoils is to
Enter Ring Again.
THREE CANDIDATES TO BATTLE

NEW YORK, Sept ii.--Jess Willard
has finally reached the stage. where he
Is ready to talk fight again. The big
champions contract with the Wild West
show he IL now with. expires on Novem-
Der, !. and after that date II will be neces-
sGry for him TO enter the ring II he ex-
poets to make capital Of his honers.
AS IL takes a month OF two TO boom
a championship match, II Is high time
for him to select an opponent and name
a date for the bout 10 take place. AL
though Willard declares that he will not
demand an impossible guarantee and will
leave the matter OF selecting an oppon-
ent In the hands OF the promoter. ap-
parently It is going TO he a difficult
matter TO arrange match that Will
meot with the full approval Of the fight
going public.
Just at present there are only three
men worthy TO be named In the same
breath with the man who humbled Jack
Johnson. They are: coffey. Weinert and
Moran. As Coffey and Moran are
scheduled TO meet in the near future. the
winner and weinert will then be left
20 fight IL out
Because no il the llghtest one OF the
three. Welnert has received the least con-
alteration so far. II Ia felt that II would
be unfair TO ask him to pit his $50 pounds
against WIZARDS go still. II past per-
formAnces are to be taken into account,
It must be admitted that the Jersey man
is entitled TO as high a rating as either
of his two rivals
Apparently neither Moran nor Coffey
is In the least anxious TO assume the
task OF demonstrating that Weinert does
not belong in tho hunt. Although without
a championship wallop. welnert has a
corner on what little speed and skill there
is in the heavyweight divisions at pres-
ent, and his heavier but more clumsy
rivals are well satisfied TO leave him
alone. They are wise enough to real ne
that they are not likely to advance their
prestige by an attempt to keep pace with
a man OF his speed.
Since weinert has beaten Coffey and
also Gunboat Smith. who took the meas
ure OF Moran. Il is only log cal to as
sumo that he could outpoint either OF his
rivals and yet Weinert undoubtedly
would have the least chance Of defeat
ing Willard In the only way that de-
feat would affect the ttle-by q knock
out.
II the boxing solons decide TO permit
referees decisions weinert will have 70
be taken more seriously In the future.
In that event his victories will count,
/ even though not gained by the Knockout
route. Whether this can be taken as an
argument foB or against decisions Is
somewhat doubtful, however. 30 far a.

Still the time Is fast approaching when
ten rounds will be the standard distance
for all bouts. n that time has not ao-

eventually Il will become necessary to
make the rules OF the ring conform TO the
