Rush, the spring is the time to teach

In view OF the fact that man can

Six Inches More.
Six Inches More

New York. Feb. 14.-While Frank
Moran, from physical standpoint, is
much more formidable opponent
than Jack Dillon would be for Jess
Willard, the fact remains that the
big western champion will possess
great advantages in height, weight
and reach over the Pittsburgh pugi-
list when the pair meet in their ten.
round bout here March II. They are
nearly Of equal, age, Moran having
been born on March is, 1887, and
Willard on December 20 Of the same
year. In height Willard will tower
fully five inches over his opponent,
who measures feet l inch, and as
to weight Moran will have to concede
at least 40 pounds. He generally en-.
tiers the ring weighing a couple OF
pounds over the 200 mark, while Will
lard in all likelihood, will not be very
much under $50 pounds, after train
for five weeks or less. y.
Willard's enormous reach Of SO IL
inches as compared with Moran's IS,
is a handicap which the Pittsburgher
will have to overcome in order to
have chance Of outpointing his big
adversary. That Moran is the pos
SCISSOR Of courage, stamina and a
punch sufficiently effective FOR a
knockout has been demonstrated in
several of his ring battles. He has
been anxious to meet Willard ever
since the latter won the champion
ship from Jack Johnson, nearly a
year ago, and, basing his chances on
the showing he made against john
son at Paris lin 1914, Moran believes
he has the ability and force to wear
down Willard even in a limited bout
of ten rounds.
If confidence is a potent factor in
a battle of this kind, Moran will not
be found lacking in this essential.
That he can absorb punishment OF
the heaviest kind, no one will deny,
but Moran may be over-contident of

Il
Wizards absence from the ring for
nearly a year, except in exhibition
bouts, may have untitled him for a
supreme effort, but as the coming
bout only calls for ten rounds, the
champion undoubtedly will acquit
himself with all the skill of a title
holder. His evenly balanced offens-
i've and defensive tactics in addition
to his endurance and cool-headed-
ness, combined with a wonderful
physique, make Willard seem almost
invulnerable in the coming battle.
