New York. Feb. 29.-Jess Willard looks
land acts-like a real champion in his
workouts here for his ten-round quarrel
with Frank Moran on March >.
THE champion stole some of Jack
Johnson's stuff; that's what he did, ven
tured a bystander at Wizards initial
workout in Gotham. And that's the opin-
ion among the experts" who have seen
him in action.
The Willard of today exhibits clever
ness far beyond that which he possessed
when he snatched the heavyweight
crown from the black man in Havana
nearly even months ago. He is much
faster than he was in Cuba, despite the
fact that he is a bit bulky amidships and
slightly soft in the arms and shoulders.
He has become shifty, too. and uses
blocking, ducking, and feinting methods
that johnson seemed to have copy
righted.
did you train in secret and learn
few of Johnson's tricks" Willard was
asked.
The heavyweight king grinned and
said:
well I'll answer that by saying that
never have quit training since the day
beat johnson. But it hasn't been
strenuous training-just enough to keep
me in shape. l don't suppose the public
knew that was doing some work every
day and that's why so many wild stories
got around about my weighing anywhere
from 300 pounds to half ton.
Fighting is my procession. I aimed to
become the best in my line, and so, natu-
rally, I have tried to develop speed and
cleverness How well I have succeeded
is something for the spectators to de-
eide"
Probably the most striking change in
Willard is that he has acquired confidence
in him self. Before he became champion
he always was mantled with an air of
man not sure Of himself, who fears that
the worst is going to happen, and looks
for 1t to happen.
But Willard now is a confident youth,
though not conceited. He feels within
himself that he is the best man in the

HUB LOWREY TRIMS
THE MASKED MARVEL

Getting the jump at the starters whistle
and taking a lead of ten PAGES, which he
maintained without varying throughout
his mile race with the Masked Marvel
Hub LOwrey won in minutes and 10
seconds. The Grand Central Coliseum was
thronged with followers of the local boy,
who Cheered at his victory.
The Masked Marvel refused to give any
abb for his initial defeat other than
mentioning that the smallness of the
track worried him. The skaters were the
same distance apart at every turn, and
had Lowrey not gotten a slight start in
all probability the event would have been
a tie. Lowrey raced a fast race and was
willing to give the Marvel a chance to
even matters. They will go two miles to-
night.

Willard has acquired a left stab since

his career he used his left almost wholly
for jabbing purposes. reserving the right
for the cleanup" wallop. That's what
he did in the johnson fracas. But now

realize that Moran has a powerful
riGht-handcr. but I am developing a de
f"nsc which l feel will turn back those
attacks"
Wizards training schedule calls for a
three to six mile jaunt in the morning
through and around parts of Central
Park. This exhibition is free to all those
who happen to be in the neighborhood
where the heavyweight is running or

ing staff that was pointed at as being one
of the weakest in the circuit: the hurlcrs
should be stronger in 1916 and this will
improve our chances. Burns IL also likely

and this means u lot.
IF the Tigers hold their own until
August. l am sure they will be the win
ners. For after that we have a pretty
easy schedule-better. I should say, a
very favorable schedule-and this helps
in the pinch days of the race"
Bozeman Bulger, of the New York Even
ing World, prints an interesting inter
view with Cap" Arson, the famous old
time player.
According to Arson. the present day
players do not excel the old timers to
any great extent.
BELIEVE me-" Arson added with en-
phasis, 1T was just as hard to hit
curve ball in 1885 as it is now. We
had few great hitters then, just like
you have now. Yes, and we had just
as many weak ones.
The only new thing in baseball
that l know of is the spitball. In the
old days they used to pitch some
thing like it, but not so perfectly and
not with such a sharp break. The
spitball is really built on a new prin-
Ciple. That is practically the only
new thing. In the old days we hunted
and stole bases just as you do now,
and runners were blocked away from
the plate in exactly the same man
ner."
DO you think you could hit the
spitball if it was pitched to you now"
NO, ! don't" he admitted. "A few
years ago when Jack Chesbrough
was in his prime with the splitter
Clark Griffith bet me a hat that Jack
could strike me out. The argument
arose over my disbelief in the spit
ball. l really did think it simply a
lot of newspaper talk then. Well, we
went out and tried 1t and Jack did
strike me out"
Notwithstanding the troubles that
have befallen him, Capt. Arson looks
as hale and strong as a man ten years
younger than himself. He has just
returned from Philadelphia, where he
went a few days ago on the sorrowful
mission of burying his wife.
