Willie Richie. erstwhile fighter ana
now student of Columbia UmyeI,S 10y;

Willie was properly humbled by the
,in,e less willard made his entrance.
The battered Jack Hemple TINS time
was wearing civilian attire. WIZARD

over various parts of his face WIN

Search was made for Whitley Allen,

Tho exercises and was jolted over 'he
staee for two rounds. Then Noluh-
teer. one Jack Broad. stepped up lor
round. Before the three minutes WeIe

Sv that time Wizards perspirs'iOn
seemed satisfactory. for he trotted up

Rodel has now learned how 10 BelSs-
lo;re a punch. for at the end OF the
80 round Willard let the former

Moran declared yesterday holiday.

In, in the afternoon he headed down

box six rounds or more az the Chateau

Moran work will wind up Thursday
also. His problem is not the taking OIL

Moran expects 20 enter the ring az
bout 2O2 pounds. This will make the
Inference between himself and Willard
an even fifty pounds.
There was one disconcerting feature
IN Willard's workout yesterday. lie
held Boer Rodel great deal during the
three rounds, gripping his arms, a

chances arc that with his great strength
