NO LOGICAL FIGHTER
In SIGHT FOR JESS

New York. May 5.-Once more Jess Will
lard stands out alone in the heavyweight
ranks. Hopes that Carl Morris would de-
velop into serious contender for the
championship vanished when he let glass
jawed Jim Coffey stand him OF in their
New York bout and show him UP in the
lnal rounds. When Carl trimmed Fred
Fulton many OF them boosted him as a
logical challenger for Willard. but his
sad showing against Coftey has induced
forgetfulness OF his other performance.
The Fulton showing was not above Sus-
picion that Fred's heart was not as stout
az had been supposed and no great Gre
dit attaches to Morris as result.
The Oklahoman's big bulk enables him
to crowd and smother his smaller oppo-
nents. He wouldn't he able to do this
with Willard. for he wouldn't have any
thing on the champion in sire. Unless
Morris can go out and demonstrate he
is able to clean up all the others in a
decisive manner. Willard probably will
be idle for some time to come,

Or. woodward suggested in his reply
that lit would appear that under nor

forming such work as was described
in Supt. Whittaker's letter of inquiry
and that lin times such as these when
an effort is being made to reduce the

irreducible minimum, it would appear
that the amount consumed per day un-
der conditions such as exist in your
institution might be materially below

However, Supt. Whitaker does not

to cut down the sugar ration below an

meal requiring sweetening. he thinks.
