the world, announced today that he
had gone into training for another
fight with Dempsey who triumph
ed over him on the above occasion
and who successfully defended the
heavyweight crown against a foreign
challenger less than two months ago.
It might be better said that Willard
will attempt to secure revenge for the
walloping Dempsey gave him but Jess
just won't have it that way. He says
he really and truly and honestly be-
lieves the second fight is going to come
off and he refuses to entertain any
doubts as to what the outconN will be.
He says the fur is going to fly and
claims he knows which way most of it
is going to fall.

says it isn't any trouble to reduce at
least a pound in weight a day, and he
claims he can lose half that much
during the hot weather with scarcely
any effort at all.
Communicates With Richard.
Willard has been in communication
with Tex Richard, the promoter, and
his former business manager, Ray o.
Archer, for some time in regard to
another scrap with Dempsey but
Richard has been quoted in press dis
patches recently as saying he must
be assured of Wizards condition be-
fore he will start negotiations for the
bout
That isn't the reason Richard is
waiting" declared Jess, today Rick

their first run in the fourth but the
home lads put over two more in their
half with three solid bingles. In the
fifth inning Saffel grew wild and gave
way to Seitz who saved the day after
the visitors had scored three runs.
Altho the railroaders kept up a con-
tinual bomba rdment of the offerings

 On the main front of this vast prov ing grounds, where heavy guns of all types and calibres are arrayed as il for battle, ten rounds were fired to show that flashless powder actually has been developed. The firing was done from a ' nm. gun. which is the standard for the field artillery.

 The advantages of f1ashless powder are easily recognized. Its value is in comes with the ordinary powder charge reveals the position of the gun, thereby making it the object of spe- cific attack by the enemy. When smokeless powder is used the location of the battery is not betrayed.
 The demonstration was a part of the third annual show of the Army Ordnance Association, co-operating with the American Society of Mechan- lcal Engineers and the Society of Au- tomotive Engineers. The purpose was to continue interest in ordnance devel- opment as an aid to the national de- fense.
