OPEN FOR BATTLE
 WITH JESS

New Yorlz-Is Jess Willard entitled to a match with the winner of the I Dempsey-Carpentier bout?
 Jess has been out of the ring close on to two years. He is no longer a youngster. He was well past the 30 Nyear milestone when he whipped Jack Johnson.s What of him now? It's, a riddle the boxing public would like see solved.
 If Willard is really in earnest about [. winning back the title he should have E at least one good fight under his belt tFbetween now and next Labor day. the E date set for his match with the victor ! of the Dempsey -Carpentier fight. -l Fred Fulton would make an ideal q &,opponept for Willard. So would Harry ssWills, who licked Fulton, though Ethere is no great public demand for Wills against white heavyweights. :. Fulton and Willard compare very f 4favorably. Willard lost to Dempsey & in three rounds; Fulton in one round. E But today Fulton is a better Scrapper <. than he was when he met Dempsey at < Newark.
