said Miss Kathreen Westbrook anu
Miss Suzanne Westbrook this morn
ing at their home in Melrose, 10
which they returned last evening at
ter participating in the big Pershing
Parade, in New York city.
Miss Suzanne Westbrook left for
France in February, 1918, and after
spending q week in Paris was sta

Sisters Work Together
1t was there that Miss Kathreen
Westbrook, who left this country
November, 1919, joined her sister,
in April. Prior to that time she
had been in Paris at the Avenue

months she left for Germany where
the sisters worked together for a
brief period when Miss Kathreen was
sent out in the field with the Flight

were in outpost towns and she traV-
eled from one to the other carrying
food and provisions to the boys. In
cidentally, the 2Sth Infantry of the
First Division was one of the few
regiments to be decorated by the
French Government.
Three weeks before sailing for this
country on the u. S. S. Zeppelin the
sisters were again reunited and fin
ished up their work together.
Both expressed a deep admiration
for the American doughboy abroad
but when asked to compare him
with the French and English soldiers
laughingly refused to make the COM
parison. They also preferred to say
nothing about the attitude of the
Germans toward the Americans as
they were bound to receive courteous
treatment from the people with
whom they were billeted.
The Misses Westbrook stated that
one of the most popular diversions
with the boys" was dancing. They
were ready to dance at any time and
stag affairs were exceedingly fire.

of young women. Stunt nights also
afforded considerable amusement
and many original entertainments

and movies both came in for their
share of popularity with other novel
and impromptu features.
The women's baseball team made
up of the girl workers of the First
Division, on which both Miss Kath-
reen and Miss Suzanne played, made
a big hit (both literally and figur-
atively) wherever they went. In
contests with the men, the girls
played real game of ball as many
of their opponents are willing to
admit.

Toledo, o., June 30.-One of the
greatest natural fighters of all
times meets the best manufactured
ring man in history, on July 4th.
Which man has the advantage?
"Dempsey-the natural fighter
by million miles" is the consen-
sus of opinion around these parts.
Instinct guides a man destined
by nature to be a warrior. He
knows in every crisis just what to
do. But with a fighter who never
cared for battling in youth, and
took it up for financial gain it is
radically different. He. does what
he was taught to do by tutors, but
when something happens that is out
of the ordinary, he is all at sea-
That's about right" spoke UP
"Pooch"' Donovan, trainer of Har-
Yards great athletes, "Willard is a
manufactured fighter, pure and
simple He didn't care for mixing
with his fists early in youth-and
he really doesn't like fighting an
awful lot now. Certainly he
doesn't battle for the love of fray
as did Sullivan, Fitzsimmons, Cor
bett, Jeffries and all the others did
who began their ring careers in
early youth.
Vast Difference.

sey and Willard to note the vast
difference in their methods. Will

competitor, Sandy Griswold. A few
minutes later l ran into Charlie
Mathieson, who used to be my boss
on the New York Boxing Record.
"reminiscences were in order, but
before Jess Willard blew in, Charlie
relieved himself of the opinion that
Willard was a cinch.
Bat Masterson figures the same
way, and for some time he has had
$500 posted with Tex Rickard to
bet on Jess. Otto Floto of Denver
took exception to Bats opinion and
covered the money. The betting on
the bout is at evens when there is
any, but I am informed there is
little going on.
See Both Train.
The champion and challenger
have a unique system of shaming
the pre-battle profits. Willard starts
his training at 2:30 and Dempsey be-
gins shortly after $50. The bugs

to Dempsey's camp, mile away
and see Jack perform.
The champion boxed three rounds
with Jack Hemple, two with Walter
Monahar, shadow boxed a round
and then stepped another with Mon
ahan. For the most part he stood
flat-footed and blocked nearly every
thing sent at him, but he sprung a

ions that his legs were in bad shape.

HEAVY TRAINING
FOR 4TH BOUT
Dempsey Undergoes 'PiCkling'
Process to Tougher Skin;
Willard Abandons Road
Work.

Toledo, O., June 30.-For fear of
an injury to his hands on the eve
of his heavyweight championship
contest with Jess Willard, Jack
Dempsey today was instructed to
eliminate all heavy hitting from his
training bouts. The instructions
were issued at the request of Tex
Richard, promoter of the Fourth of
July match, who also intends to
make the request of Willard.
Sunday saw the last hard work
out for Dempsey and from now on
the challenger will ease off rapidly
in his training. This is a necessity
rather than a choice so far as the
Salt Lake heavyweight is concerned
for he is so fine physically that
of his going stale.
This aftarnoon Dempsey plans to
box four rounds in which nothing
but light work will be attempted.
Willard, on the other hand, plans
to continue his recent burst Of
training speed for at least two days
more, unless a spell of hot weather
causes him to change his mind. The
cool breeze of the weekend put
feeling of snap into the champion
and led him to decide to work
steadily until Wednesday at least
The titleholder long since dropped
all forms of road work with the ex-
planation that he did not think that
it benefited man of his tremendous
bulk.
Physical culture sharps are
aligned in widely separated camps.
Those who think that he should
have done more work admit that he
is in better shape than when he
met Frank Moran in New York, but
claim that he is woefully short of
the condition reached when he de-
feated Jack Johnson in Havana.
Some of his most enthusiastic ad
mirers claim that his condition
clearly indicates that he has been
doing secret training in addition to
his public workouts, but Willard
denies this old thick of pugilism,
The champion is not using brine or
any other preparation to tougher
his skin, but Dempsey is following
this old system and is picking" his
face for the contest as did Fitzsim-
mons, Jeffries and other earlier day
champions.

Not Too Heavy.
This wasn't the only surprise for
the sparring partners either. He
would go along rather easy for a
while and then tear loose a punch
that would lift Jack or Walter off
the floor a foot. He'd laugh like
a schoolboy when he did it, but for
the most part was very business
like, He looks good and appears
to be carrying no more extra flesh
than man of his size needs to
have to box II rounds.
At the Dempsey camp, Bill Tate
opened with the challenger, going
one round. Jamaica Kid stepped a
round and Jock Malone went one.
Then Tate came back and Jamaica
and Malone in order, making six
rounds in all, two with each. Jack
works fast and looks like a million
dollars. Malone makes him box
fast, but Dempsey seems to enjoy
it. Bill Tate is using his head and
feet both now, for he won't let the
challenger near him without falling
into clinch.
Ready to Polish Of.
Picking the winner of this scrap
in advance is going to be anything
but snap. The big boys will pol
ish off from now on, just so they
will be on edge by the Fourth.

founders around trying to adjust
himself to the sndden shift. Demp-
sey never falters, no matter what
happens. He always seems to be
able to do the right thing at the
right time-all the time"
Started Early in Life.
Dempsey began battling soon
after childhood's happy hours had
skidded. Just about as soon as he
was able to lift a pair of fists he
began swinging them. Fighting be-
came a passion with him. When
ever he was in battle he threw his
whole heart and soul into the task.
And why not? For in fighting
Dempsey finds ultimate happiness.
And so because Jack Dempsey
was created a fighter he knows just
what should be done during every
minute of the fray. Dempsey has
the uncanny knack that belongs
only to natural ring men, of know
ing just where a blow should be
struck to terminate the fight in the
quickest possible time. He drives
to the vital point with the same utl-
erring accuracy of a great surgeon
performing a most delicate opera
ton.
Willard Hasn't Instict
Willard hasn't instinct to guide
him. He knows where to hit be-
cause he has been taught by teach
ers. He knows how to guard be-
cause he has been taught that. And
he knows hundred and one other
stunts necessary ln.r ring warfare.
Each aids him nightly until the un-
expected happens.
When Willard knows not what to
do because his teachers, smart as
they might have been, could not an
tioipate the thousand and one pos
sibilities of ring battle, and so they
couldn't school Jess in that way.
If that fight on July 4 brings
along the unusual, when the unex-
pected happens it's the safest gam
bic in the world that Jack Dempsey
will know what to do-and will do it
and Jess Willard will founder
helpless until the crisis is pastor
he is beaten during his mental help
lessness.
