ARCHER STILL
FRIEND OF BIG
JESS WILLARD
Once the Manager of the Kansas
Giant, He Yet Acts as His
Advisor.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.

81 HEN M l.. FAhINbALs
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
New York, July 20.-Ray Archer
is running one of those windy
palaces, full of trick doors, dark
places and slides, over at Palisades
park.
He used to have a champion Of
the world until Jess Willard de-
cided he could manage himself.
Since then he has slipped away
from the boxing game until he is
just a reader of the sport pages and
an occasional adviser of his big
protege.
Archer didn't allow Wizards
breakaway to interfere with their
friendship and he still is on close
terms with the Kansas giant.
Willard has been writing him for
a year telling him he wants to come
back The big fellow never has
lost the opinion that he could win
the title back if he got the chance.
His chance rests with Tex Rick
ard and the king of the promoters
says he will not sign him up until
he has the assurance that the
Goliath can get into condition.
Archer says the big fellow can
get in shape if he wants to, but he
isn't sure that he wants to now.
Willard is sore now" he says.
HE had his heart set on getting
Dempsey last winter and the dis
appointment was such when the
match fell through that he got into
a sort of despair
HE worked hard for a whole
year. Very few knew about it.
When he was making inspection
trips over his oil wells he would
ride out alone in the blackboard
and when he got to the side roads
he would jump out and run for
miles behind the horses. He knew
it was the failure to get enough
road work at Toledo, that was his
greatest mistake.
He was in better shape than he
had ever been before last winter.
He wanted to meet Dempsey on ST.
Patrick's day in Madison Square
garden and he had all the conf
dence in the world in himself. Then
the match fell through for various
reasons and he gave up.
He's still keeping in shape,
however. He says he does it for
a double purpose. He still believes
he will get another chance at the
title and he also does it to keep
ut for his arduous business

five assists and one putout. His
two errors were the result of effort.
He made a sensational catch OF
Bratchi's line drive in the fourth
Johnson came in on a dead run
to catch Callahan's drive in the
third.
That chance IN the tenth was
tough one to lose out on After
Murphy had singled and been sac
rificed to second, he enticed Hark-
ms into pegging to second and III
stead of going back to the base
raced for third and won standing
up. Murphy was across the plate
easily on Benson's foul bunt. The
went glimmering when
Elmer popped out on his next try
Still Murphy took a chance by com
ing in with ZeiserS windup, with
fatal result.
Ross was the heavy batsman for
the Islanders. getting three out of
five. Two of his blows were re-
sponsible for scores. A close deci-
sion at first in the ninth robbed him
of fourth hit.
Newell had busy day in center
field. He had six chances and hau-
died all of them with comparative
ease.
Ducky Holmes seemed bit of on
balls and strikes but otherwise UNI
pired in acceptable manner.

ISLANDERS TO
PLAY MOLINE
EIGHT GAMES.
First Series Begins Tomorrow at
Browning Field Should Be
Lively Tits.

Tomorrow the Islanders depart,
from the home lot for the vast open
spaces of Browning field, Moline,
there to meet the Plowboys in four
scheduled contests extending
through Sunday. Monday they will
return to Douglas park, bringing
the Plows with them TO be their
playmates here for another four
day period. That makes eight
games in a row between these two
rivals of ancient and modern
standing
The Islanders should be in some
what better condition with the Rddi-'
ton of new blood. Bill johnson
looks o. X for the right garden and
if Speitzer comes on the third base
problem will likely be disposed Of
The return of Frank Smith is ex-
pected this week and this should
relieve the burden ION the pitchers
Bill Coles shoulder is still bother
ing him but should be well enough
for him to get in against Moline. s.,
Moline is not in first class shape
by any means An injury to Badly
Altermatt's foot and McCue's rather
uncertain playing at short has
caused Manager Mack to scour the
country for new faces. 1t is re-
ported he has two infielders COM
ing on. One is Fred Smith of the
Atlanta club in the Southern asso-
citation, who Moline was after sew
eral weeks ago. Smith refused to
report at that time because of a
dispute over remuneration The
ante has been increased and it is
said he is on his way Smith is a
third baseman. Barrett, one Of
Connie Mack's proteges, is to re-
place McCue at short.
Moline has been an up and down
club all season, winning by streas
and losing in the same manner.
True, it is right at the heels Of
Terre Haute for first place but Pc
oria has demonstrated the Plows can
be trimmed handsomely on Their
own lot.
Games to date between the Is
landers and Plows stand at to
in favor of the latter. Moline made
clean sweep of the first series
while Rock Island took two of three
in the second series, which was
played in Rock Island. The twin
games on July were divided.
