JESS WILLARD WILL
MEET FRANK MORAN
Heavyweieht Pugilists VIII Get To-
gether In New York For
$4,000 Purse.

New York, Jan. 12--Jess Willard
and Frank Moran are to meet in New
York city for the biggest purse ever
given for a boxing match here, and
with the possibility that the bout WILL
carry with It the heavyweight cham
pionship OF the world. Tex Richard is
authority for the statement that the
men named will battle in March for
s45, 900. of which 10000 will go to
the champion. and the balance to the
man who Is am bitious to capture the
title.
The one diffculty that corfronts
Rickard Is to obtain control of a build
ing In which the big fight can be pull
ed off. In talking OF the match today
he suggested Madison Square Garden,
or the big car barns at One Hundred
and Forty-sixth Street and Lenox Ave-
nue. Az possible places in Which the
bout could be held. Jimmy Johnston
who is IN charge of the boxing in the
Garden, ridicuIed the idea of the men
meeting there under the management
of Richard
If the men meet In the Garden
said Johnston, 1T will be under the
present management. and I will
handle the bout I know that Richard
has not got the men signed up. for
am negotiating with both Of them, and
expect to match them myse.s"
Tex Rickard says that he Is not
financially interested in the proposed
bout. but that the man behind the guns
is Sam McCracken. 4 circus man. and
close friend of the Ringing Brothers
Richard said that willard had accept
ed his terms by wire. but admitted
that he had not signed contract. Ac-
cording to Richard. Moran has verbal
~ agreed to the terms. so that all thai
remains for the Western promoter e
do Is to organize a club here, obtain q
license from the State Commission
and hire a building large enough tc
accommodate a big enough crowd &c
make the venture a winning one.
