The difference between training and

kind of instruction does not make for
progress; it can never convert trade
into profession. The spinning jenny

wireless telegraph by a telegraph
operator, nor the science of agronomy
by practical farmers.

of preparation exceeding the limits Of

has made several flights at army
camps and is seriously considering

he is member. He is still deter

BY KID GRAVES
Former Welterweight Champion
Srort;pc Editor of The Rec

Toledo, Ohio, July 1.-(Special
Telegram )-Workouts at the two
camps were brief today. Willard
boxing three rounds each with
Hemple and Monaghan. In the sec
ond round with Monaghan, he
raped his sparring partner behind
the ear with his right and Walter
spread-eagled all over the floor. He
arose with blood in his eye, but try
as he might, he couldn't land an
effective blow on the champion.
The challenger did no boxing at
all, but shadow boxed three rounds,
punched the bag until he broke the
string and slammed the sand bag
for three rounds. Both champion
and challenger are in excellent
shape and a great battle will I'M
doubtedly be fought on the Fourth
of July. Dempsey's speed will Oft
set Wizards superior hitting abll-
ity to great extent, but in the end,
it is my belief, that Wizards great
weight advantage, together with ms
longer reach and greater he1ght,
will give him the edge.
Will Make History.
The battle will surely be a his
torv-making encounter, and the win
ner will be hailed as the greatest
of all champions. 1t is my opinion
that Willard will remain champion
after the bout and that he will meet
Georges Carpenter here in the fall
in the same arena in which he meets
Dempsey Friday afternoon.
Each declares he will win. Will
lard was the first one l interviewed
and he declared that he expected
the challenger to give him a rous-
ing old battle, but sometime before
time for the 10th round, Dempsey
wouldn't be there. He thinks that
his left will hold Jack off until he
finds the right opportunity for his
crashing right and when that right
lands, the fight will be over.
Challenger Dempsey is Just as
confident that he will be the winner
and that the scrap won't last over
six rounds. Jack is certain that ne
will get inside the champions Ions
left and batter away at the body
until he forces Willard to bend owe,
within reach of his uppercut.
Dempsey is placing great reliance
on that uppercut and realizes thai
for it to be effective, he must brine
the big fellow down lower within
reach of it. This he declares he
will do with terrific body punish
ment. Jack says he will prove te
the fans that Willard can be hur'
in, the body and that the stunt O.
letting his sparring partners batter
away at the stomach was not to be
thought proof that his abdomen
