FRANK MORAN IS
STRONG FOR JESS
IN TITLE BOUT
Declares That Those Who
Figure. Dempsey Will Have
Cinch July 4 Are
Wrong.
By FRANK G. MENKE.


Toledo, O., June 2o.-Frank
Moran breezed out to Jess Will
lard's camp this afternoon. sauinted
at the giant champion from every
angle, and then exclaimed: Say,
he looks great"
Some one in the group reminded
the man who fought Willard TO-
round no-decision duel in 1916 of
the fact that trainers, newspaper
critics and one-time training camp
platmates Of the pugilisic king, have
asserted that he looks just the op-
posite-oh, very much the opposite.
They're wrong-all wrong" in
sisted the Pittsburgh blonde. "Jess
looks better right now than when
he fought me in New York, and I
guess he looked pretty good then,
didn't he? He's just as fast in
training as he was that night, and
you know fellow doesn't go as fast
against his sparring partners as
when he is really in a fight.
Willard is a better fighter now,
whether he's 81, 80 or 40, than he
was four. FIVE and six years ago.
And there's reason. He never took
a boxing lesson. He didn't break
into the game like most fellows, we'll
schooled in trickeries. He came in
cold as one might say, and every
thing he knows about boxing he has
learned since then by experience.
He got started late in life as boxer,
took it up perhaps later than any
other man in history who ultimately
achieved greatness. But year after
year Willard has improved"
What do you think of Demp-
seyI"
"He surely can hit and he looks like
a tough one to send kicking. He's
in wonderful shape and that will
help him lot. And he's made a
splendid record. But when he
tackles Willard he'll find a man
different than any other that he has
ever faced; truly super-hghting
machine, and it won't be long be-
fore Dempsey will know he's up
against the toughest job he ever
tackled"
do you think Willard will VIM"
"I'm not doing any thinking
about that yet" was the reply. "But
I'll say this, those who have figured
Jess as all in and reckon that
Dempsey will have a cinch on July
4, we'll, they're all going to have
strange awakening"

Be Held.

legations. Officials of the big banks
of the state were for the PROPOSE
ton from the start, each accepting
that a food of new and needed
money would be rolling into Toledo
banks.
Ohio lawyers were retained to
dig into the boxing code of the state
and to give a ruling. 1t was found
by the attorneys that prize-fighting
is illegal, but no Interpretation could
be unearthed which would prevent
meeting between two boxers who
were paid a stated amount for their
exhibition. The law was extremely
plain and satisfactory to Richard.
With the fund of information at
his finger tips Richard sought ut
the Toledo and Ohio authorities and
attempted to learn what their stand
would be. In Toledo he was met
with open arms by Mayor Cornell
Schneider. who enlisted his services
in the scheme and promised Rick
ard every aida promise that has
been kept. Most of the state Off
ciais sided with Richard, but Gov
ernor Cox, of Ohio, refused to be
drawn into a discussion of the mer-
its of boxing or the cause Of Rick
ard. However. clase friends of Gov
ernor Cox let Richard know that the
state executive believed he had no
authority to interfere and would not
block the proceedings or have any
interest ir the fight.
Thus assured, Richard took the
rubber off his bankroll, bought few
million feet of lumber and began
work on the massive arena.
Since Richard announced his plans
there has developed some opposition
to the fight from ministerial associ-
atoms, but the objections are getting
weaker every day. Richard spent
$4,000 on the arena in San Fran
cisco which was never used. He is
rot spending three times that
amount now to have the mone~
wasted again. The bout will take
place as scheduled. That much is
certain and undoubted.

New York. June 2s.-Intimate
knowledge of the art of promoting
a super-boxing attraction has just
been revealed. 1t has to do with
the extreme caution and careful
preliminary steps taken by Tex
Richard before he selected Toledo
as his battle-ground. Not until
every opposing force has been in
vestigated and each artery plugged
did Richard finally decide to begin
the building of his costly arena or
finally announce that Toledo had
been chosen from the numerous
sites offered during the months that
followed the signing of Jess Willard
and Jack Dempsey in New York.
Emissaries of Richard were dis
patched to Ohio several weeks be-
fore the public announcement was
made. The first investigation had
to do with news channels. News
papers and periodicals with wide
circulation in Ohio were felt out
and the editorial policy as to box
ing found out. In this respect
Richard learned that the newspapers
were unanimously in favor of hav-
ing the heavyweight joust at Toledo.
Encouraged by the success with
the publishers, Richards emissaries
next approached the ministers of
Ohio. In this department Richard
found little of satisfactory nature,
since the ministers refused to dis
cuss the issue; but one incident
seemed to convince Richard that the
ministers would not be unduly
alarmed. One of the leading
churchmen of Ohio was asked as to
his stand. He declared he was of
Irish parentage and liked a fight,
but could not discuss the question.
This answer was accepted as affirm
alive.
Manufacturers of the Buckeye
state were approached and were so
enthusiastic Richard almost an
nounced his plans right then and
there, but he refused to be over
optimistic and continued his inves-
