Eastern champions.
This will be particularly true IN the

Annapolis is affording the angler
wonderful sport. rock fish and trout
being plentiful. In conversation
over the phone, Capt. Tom Trout,
OF Annapolis, an authority on where
the big ones" feed, had few en-
couraging words to say. Bring
plenty Of blood worms, and you can
make a killing. The big rock have
arrived and. believe me, they are
hungry. and trout are as numerous
as they were month ago."
Fishing from the piers at Chesa-
peake Beach and Plum Point has
been wonderful. The angler who
can put in nights fishing at
either resort will be fully repaid.
Parties visiting Rock Point have
reported big catches of rock, trout
and hardheads. Mr.. Stonestreet, of
Rock Point, when asked over the
phone, "How's fishing?" answered
back: Trout, rock and hardheads
are more plentiful this year than
any year since I've been located at
the Point"

tomac and the Shenandoah are ideal

me lower POTOMAC has yielded
some record catches of plymouth
bass this fall and the angler con-

no mistake In selecting one of the
creeks of the lower river as his
objective.
Robert w. Harris, of Fredericks
burg, Va, made a record catch at
Potomac and Aqua creeks last
week. He caught forty bass which
weighed in the aggregate of ninety
pounds. Some of the fish going
over three pounds.

PUBLIC KNOWS
WILLARD ISN'T
JACKS MATCH
During Two Years Since He Lost
Title kansan Has Lived Easily
and Is Fat, Flabby and Slow.
by JAMES J. CORBETT.
IF Jack Dempsey really is match
ed with Jess Willard who is 60

Ing TO get excited about itI
For about 80 per cent of fistic fan
dom will decide that it won't be a
real fight; that it'll be little more
than workout for the mauling
champion.
Memory OF Wizards record prior TO
his meeting Dempsey and vivid recol'
lection OF what happened In Toledo
make many believe that Willard hasn't
a chance against Dempsey; that the
giant Kansan is just one OF those Eel.
lows made TO order for the man from
Salt Lake City.
Dempsey fights his best against big.
slow moving men. His superior speed
makes him target that the big fellow
hardly can hit with any degree OF
effectiveness. That same speed en-
sbles Dempsey to close In and punch
with all his force before the big man
can dodge away from the attack.
And Dempsey has proven again and
again that he can hit hard enough to
drop any man In the world.
Not An Impressive Record.
Wizards record, before he won the
title wasn't impressive: He did win
from Johnson-but II wasn't the real
Jack johnson. He won from a negro
Ter greatness. Any good fighter could
have whipped that same Jack John
son In Havana in 1915.
The big fellow then fought once be-
fore he met Dempsey. That was
against Frank Moran. He didn't i'm
press very greatly In that fight. He
just showed up az big. powerful
fellow with a rugged constitution. He
certainly did not add any luster to
the title which he held.
He was only punching bag for
Dempsey-and that was two years ago
when he was only thirty-six. He
never had a chance from the bang OF
the first gong. He was the most beat
en- champion OF them all. 1t never
was a question as to who would win.
would be before Dempsey would drop
the ponderous Western fighter for Ihe
full count.
Only the bell saved Willard from
first-round defeat.
Now, two years later, Willard wants
another chance. It's doubtful II he
has had pair Of gloves on more than
a half dozen times. He has lived cas-
lily, comfortably. His muscles, as q
result, have become filled with fat
His interior undoubtedly has become
flabby. He always was slow-and
certainly is slower now.
Age Is a Barrier.
And he is within a few months Of
being thirty-nine years old.
No man ever won the heavyweight
championship of the world at thirty
nine-and / don't think that any one
ever will-certainly not from Jack
Dempsey. The present title holder
has some flaws in his work, but they
are not OF sufficient import, when one
discusses Willard as his opponent. to
create the idea that he will be beaten
Pugilistic fandom can and does get
excited about a match that brings two
men of even matching together. IT
will turn out in huge volume for any
battle in which there is an elem snt
of uncertainty as to result. But |
doubt IL IL ever would get enthu,ed
about a match between the present
champion and an ex-champion who
never was a great one at his best
and who certainly is miles removed
now from whatever ability he once
did know.
1t looks like a very bad match.

was proposed, Germany immedi-

what France fears for France is

can still call hard names and
whine because the yoke which
