LOOK OUT FOR THAT RIGHT
UPPERCUT, MR.. DEMPSEY

Jess Willard doesn't boast OF his
knockout punches. lie Just believes he
Is so big and powerful that no ordl-
nary man can stand up before him for
any great length OF time.
Ito confidently expects TO dispose OF
Jack Dempsey. challenger. and then go
right on with his business until an
other challenger is developed.
He has met Jack Dempsey and he
likes the looks OF the youngster who Is
to met him for the championship
July 4.
Hes likable looking boy" said
Jess.
But outside OF taking one good look
at Dempsey when the two met recent
ly in Chicago Jess hasn't worried over
his rival for heavyweight honors. lie
turned a deaf ear on an invitation to
stop or at Kansas City, en- route TO
California, and sit at the ringside while
Dempsey boxed an exhibition.
The only time he has seen him box
was IN Chicago gymnasium where Jack
was llmbering up for the ediflcation
OF the Chicago sport fans and writ
ers.
Jess started boxing late N life and
he's not worn out He hasn't fought
many battles and sim figures himself
In his prime.
lie has no idea OF giving up the title
and that means he has no idea OF be-
ing whipped by Dempsey.
"What'll you use on Dempsey" he
was asked.
Everything I've got" he said. and
that means a right upper cut. a left
jab, go pounds OF super physique and
indomltable spirit.

SHORT General GAME
BILL TO Be OFFERED
Stan Correspondent.


DOVER, Del, Feb. i4.-Because OF the
many objections as advanced by men,
bers Of the Legislature, particularly
those from Kent and Sussex Counties.
II has been decided as It was learned
here today 10 have a substitute game
and fish bin drawn, which will be in
iroduced in the Legislature shortly.
The bill. which as drawn by several OF
the assembly members, provides for
81 a year license, which will permit
both hunting and fishing throughout
the State, but which will permit every
resident to hunt or FISH In his own
election district or upon his own lands
or upon lands Immediately adjacent
thereto, and (which will also permit
hunting and ilshing anywhere In the
State on Christmas and Thanksgiving
days without a license.
The original bin required a Statewide
license TO hunt costing -. u has been
said by several OF the legislators that
there are many Kent County people liy-
ing very near the Sussex County line,
the same being true about Sussex Coun-
ty, and they opposed seriously the
paying Of 81 90 hunt outside the county
OF their residence. There were also many
Objectors that declared that one license
should give the privilege TO both hunt
and fish. To meet these objections,
therefore. It was decided to introduce
in the House the substitute measure.
