JESS WILLARD
MAKES SHOWING
IN EXHIBITION
Former Champion Will Have to WORK
Up a Bit If He Expects to
Beat Jack Dempsey
rni,ea Press Leased Wire

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. l6.-BOards OF
the HOLLYWOOD stadium ring last night
rumbled ominously, recording on inc
seismographs of North America the
challenge of big jess Willard 10 Jack
Dempsey. heavyweight champion.
Two distinct shocks were felt, last
mo a couple Of rounds apiece, when
less took on Tom Kennedy and Joe
Bonds in the first ring bouts he has
staged since he started training mere
last summer.
The shocks were followed by a fldal
wave of applause. The fans OF thie
section were comparing the exhibition
to one staged at Vernon by Jack pemp-
sev about two years ago when the pres
ent champion gave his opponent good
lacine
Good d-natured jess Willard carried
his weight-still largely encircled by
his belt-ponderouSly stepping about
the ring with little attempt at any
footwork except for the purpose ef
keeping his balance.
He smiled when Kennedy drove
few iolts to his jaw, and towering
above his opponent, who is not rated
pigmr, pushed him about the ring.
Willard, however, was in far better
physical shape that he was when he
came here from the fields of Kansas,
flabbv with flesh.
But fans who watched his contentel
exhibition last night believe ii will be
suicide for him to enter the ring with
Dempsey in that manner
The exhibition was staged for char

NEW YORK, Nov. 16-Pennsylvanla
recently turned what seemed 10 De
sure defeat by the Navy eleven INTO
brilliant victory by a spectacular show
ing in the second half.
The change between team that had
5been completely and decisively beaten
mi the first half and team that came
ont in the second half and ran away
from one of the best teams i'll the east
was startling.
The wand that brought about mag
ic transformation was said to be cut
ting remark and an inference by thef
coach. johnny Heisman, that they
were yellow.
After the first half, Heisman, accord
ing to the story, went into the Penn
club house and had the following in
effect to say to the squad:
u don I mind your losing, if you
lose like men with your heads up. l We
cot long contract and | IN going tc
tear it M tonight and feave you flat,
if YOU don I fight in the next half. y
They went out and fought so much
that they won and provided the biggest
upset of the season.
Many stories are told of such scath-
ing remarks made by coaches that
worked heart and fight into team, and
many of them are not true.
One told recently in New York CON
eerned Tad Coy, one of the greatest OF
all Yale backs.
Princeton several years back wa

Yale eleven WASH I showing too much
fight. They came out in the second
half and rolled up twelve points for a
victory.
Nasty cutting words from the coach
es and charges that they lacked the
courage of boys was regarded as the
strategy that the Yale coaches worked
between halves to get the team on its
feet.
Several years later Coy was asked
what was said to them in the dressing
room and he replied;
Nothing that l know of. I was
asleep"
In one Of the big eastern games this
year, one of the teams had been badly
outplayed in the first half, came back
in the second half and by almost super
human efforts tied the score.
You must have told them plenty
between halves?' the coach of tine
eleven was asked after the game.
d" Didn t tell them "A thing he re-
piled Wasn't even in the club
house.
Sometimes it is a most effective way
of getting results from athletes to
question their courage. If you are big
enough to get away with it it is good
strategy.
Two years ago Yale had "A crew that
was almost the joke of the east. Ev-
eryone took turn in leaving the Blue
boat lengths behind and it looked like
Harvard could leave three men out of

charges publicly that the crew was vel

from weaklings.

Employers Will Have Final
Chance to Prove Cut
In Costs.

The minimum wage conference,
considering a reduction in the min
imum wage for women. will hold
its fnal open session this evening
at 1880 o'clock. Employers will
make a last effort to show that a
reduction in the cost of living has
taken place, tustifying a reducr
ton. -. y
Besides considering the minimum
wage for trained workers. the con-
ference will give some considera-
tion to the rate that learners now
receive. The learning period at
present is seven months, for the
first three of which the worker
gets $3.50 a week. and for the
last four $3.50 a week
The employers are asking that
the learning period be extended to
twelve months. with the wage for
the first four months at s12, the
second four at s13. and the last
four months at s14 week.
A bitter fight is to be waged by
the employees against any reduction,
