TOLEDO, Ohio, June 27-rve met
the worlds champion-Mr. Jess Will
ard-and bless you!-he's Just
folks"
He's also quite the biggest man I
ever saw. There IS something TO
that giant stuff! Mr.. Willard is one.
And don't let anybody imagine that
this world champion fighter is a great.
big, ugly, terrifying brute person!
Absolutely no! ON the contrary, he's
one of the incest men l ever met
| jolly, and kind and friendly, and sim
| pie and polite and-Wel, just gener-
ally NICEI
We-Mr. Willard and If you
| please, sat on the porch at his Toledo
house and conversed freely n ami
| ably about his VINE, his children, his
Kansas farm, and his preference for
lady spectators who did NOT ask
him. "Do you like PICKLES?"
It's rather terrifying to be ordered
to interview a worlds champion-and
write him up!
one feels hat one ought to do
something special about it-prepare
and memorize a q~uestionairre, or
think up clever remarks and leading
questions" =
And then, one may nave gathered
the impression that a boxing cham
pion is a vague sort of bold, bad man
having to do with gambling, carous-
ing and all sorts of indefinite iniqu1-
ties! 1t seems q bit adventurous and
thrilling to seek out such a romanuc
figure and actually TALK TO him!
So today it was something OF a re-
lief when the newspaper peoples taxi
drew in front of a big, comfortable
stone house in one of Toledo's finest
residence streets-and the sporting
editor said, This is Mr.. WIZARDS
house-come on in, folks-and we
filed into the Willard living room
an dshook hands with this huge quiet
giant-and began to have q good
timel
morning air!
He put down the morning paper to
greet us-and looked very freshly
shaved and dressed up-and hadn't
yet put on that-stiff collar! His little
gold collar button shone pleasantly
and made us feel right at home.
did your wife ever see 0 hght?"I
mo, she never did. She never
could leave the children n the
house long enough-and she doesn't
care so much about It anyway. shes
home now takfsg care of the garden
we've got quite a arden-an loTk- -
ing after b kids. She hasn't reaHy
got time to come away"
Does Mrs. Willard still cook and
sew for YOU, Mr.. Willard?'
'1She does, and I'll say she's the
best cook in Kansas. OF IRIS we
have help. And she used to make my
shirts for me. too. before l couio az
ford to let a tailor do it."
He touched the tent-like expense
of striped silk that covered his IA
nous $500 arms-(each of 'em in
sured for $50, 000)-and gazing on
the bulk of him n admitted that
Mrs. Willard must have been SOME
seamstress!
Mr.. willard LIKES the women to
attend his boxing bouts. He says So.
You ought to see the ladies come
to my last bout in New York-even-l
ing dress and everything-and walked

world women shouldn't enjoy - as
much as men. It's a clean game.

would not mark the first time he had
sat in a church pew.
Then he went away-and smiled
back at Mr.. Willard, the huge, simple,
kindly farmer man-champion boxer
and a gentleman.
Dempsey camp next" said sports
editor, and in a few minutes we drove
into the Overland Club on Maumee
Bay.
And Mr.. Dempsey Is also ''just
a bit shy-big, muscular, graceful,

he is about to attach the boxing title

Mr.. Willard smiles. There will be
