 To tie now he had to make it on one under an average of fours, which he accom- plished without giving his many admirers even a chance for a thrill, un- less it was on the last hole where he put beautiful iron shot even with the hole and then trimmed the cup with his eight-fOot putt.

WILLARD WORKS FAST
Champion Makes Impressive Showing Against Sparring Partners-Wrest-
 Ter Stanton Gets Rough With Jess.

Toledo, Ohio, June 12.-SiX spirit
 ed rounds of boxing and five miles
 of road work constituted the training
 program for Jess Willard yesterday in preparation for the heavyweight
 cham pionship contest with Jack
 Dempsey here on July 4.
 The champion stepped three rounds each with Jack Hempel and Walter Monahan, and boxing experts re-
 garded his glove work as the most
 impressive since he started training here ten days ago. He used a rangy
 left, jab with telling effect on Mon
 ahan and set such a furious pace for
 Hempel that the latter was in a dizzy
 condition after the final round.
 Willard wound up the days exer-
 else by wrestling with Soldier Stan i, ton, and the champion left the ring
 with a bleeding back as a result of Z Stanton's rough work in pulling and "a tugging him around the ring. The champ pion's flesh is somewhat soft, and when his attention was called to the condition of his back he prompt ly chased Stanton out of the ring. The sunburned Dempsey, still chaf- ing under the restraint placed on him, went through a lively workout, but ! was not permitted to put on the gloves. He covered about seven miles on the road, tugged at the A weights, punched the bag and shadow boxed. Although the wound over his eye is healing rapidly, Manager Jack Kearns decided not to take any risks of having the cut reopened. So 1t is probable that the challenger will not do any boxing until Friday or pos sib1y Saturday.

 Hagen alone was able to take ad- vantage of it although he faltered once or twice on the outward journey. Standing at the tenth tee Hagen real ized that he had to go home in 37 for
