Jess Lacks Good Wind and Needs Work to Make It Better-Runs Five Miles and Boxes Six Rounds.

~~1@NA ~S<ANo k~AzA 4GS NAlANAhOs 1 Toledo, O., June 6.---It was a day or contrasts at the training camps of Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey on
 Maumee Bay yesterday.
 | While the heavyweight champion | put in the heaviest work of his train ing period to date, with his quarters | the scene of busting activity, his chal- lenger was practically idle, indulgfng g merely in a short swim in the morn | ing and a motor car ride in the after noon. A capacity crowd including 200 women, jammed WiIIardrs quarters and watched him go through his train- l ing stunts; Dempsey's place resem- Died deserted village.
 Willard boxed six rounds yesterday covered five miles on the road tugged at the weights, shadow boxed and wrestled. It was an excellent work out, and the champion showed the stress of it. He appeared to be wind ed easily. but experts at the ringside said this was to be looked for at this early phase of his training. Walter Monahan, chief sparring partner for the champion, whom the latter knocked out in less than two minutes "Wednesday, boxed the first two rounds with the title holder yes terday. Walter appeared with a lumpy jaw, the result of Willard's blow Wednesday, and did not seem oVer-anxious to mix it. Willard also eased up a bit in his punches The second tilt, with Jack Hempel was q little sprightlier, however, and then came Jack Lavin and Joe Sullivan for one round each.
 sullivan is a former high school football star who has had a few pro- hCr
 at the champion for dear life from start to finish.
 Willard, evidently fearing q repetf- ton of yesterdays "accident" when he Iioored Monohan, lowered his gloves and permitted Sullivan to whang away at his head and jaw at will To- ward the end of the round the title holder began Skipping" Sullivan,s punches by moving his head and he had the sparring partner missing in IudicrouS manner
 Willard did his roadvorlz i, tho morning in the vicinity of the yVfllvs Overland Automobile Conopanv,s plant, which was the scene of rioting two days ago, and this drew a pro- test and warning from Tex Rick ara, promoter of the contest, who eau toned the champion to keep away from the scene of trouble, as he fear ed some of the idle strikers might hurl brick at Jess. Tex didn't say Whether he feared the champion or the brick might be damaged.
 Ray O. Archer manager of the champion, business representative of Willard, Director of Publicity for Jess Willard, major-domo to the title holder. &c., left for New York tonight in search of more sparring partners for his charge.
 According to MT. Archer, the box CTS now in Wiilard's camp are con- sidered all right for mere exercise purposes" but they cannot hit hard enough to sting the champion and the latter cannot cut loose at them without fear of hurting them. There fore MT. Archer is going to the big town in an attempt to locate "at least two formidable sparring partners, big enough and physically capable of swapping punch for punch with the champion
 Pugflistic wiseacres here aver that if Mir. Archer succeeds in his quest he'll have two potential champions of the world. It has also been suggested by a man who has not yet succeeded in moeching a ticket for the big fra cas on July that Archer get Fire mar, Jim F1ynn-or possibly Frank Moran-to swap punches with Jess.
 Dempsey is beginning to chafe un- der his enforced idlesness. but Jimmy De Forest, his trainer, has decreed that the challenger shall not resume training until Saturday.
 Jack kearns, manager of Dempsey, is confident that Jack will win the championship. Kearns isn't worried ,ver the favorable reports about Will ards condition. and declares that no nattes haw eaA6 tAs hi< fAHAW saiRht
