COMMISSION
CALLS JESS
ON CARPET

NEW YORK, April g. Reports
~ that Jess Willard IL getting
ready for the Floyd johnson fight
In the way he prepared for Jack
Dempsey. caused the New York
boxing commission today TO summon
the former champion to New York
TO finish his training.
Willard, It will be remembered.
took Dempsey so lightly when he
was preparing to defend his title in
Toledo. that he refused to work
when the sun was too hot, and 1t
was hot most of the time. He fail
ed to get himself in shape for the
perfectly conditioned Dempsey, and
he lost the title.
Thru some of the underground
channels in which most OF the fight
gossip is transmitted, II was report
ed here yesterday that Willard had
cut the pay Of his sparring partners
in his Excelsior Springs camp and
that they were preparing to call a
general strike. 1t was spread about
also that the former champion had
severely chastlsed several OF his
training campers who had been too
rough with him in practice.
The boxing commission apparent-
~ heard the stories and William
Muldoon ordered the huge Kansan
to come to New York and let some
OF the big experts see him do his
stuff.

Tough on
Managers
This Year
BY LEO III. LASSEN


L'RESNo. Cal. April S.--The race
l. starting today is going 20 be a
hectic one from q managerial view
point.
Harry wolverton knows no must
win at Seattle or Red Killefer is
ready TO step in.
Marty Krug Is succeeding Killofer
at Los Angeles and the radiant one
has never finished lower than third
since coming TO tho Coast six or
seven years ago.
Charley Pick took second place
club last spring and finished last. He
must win this year or get the air.
Jimmy Middleton is due for the
axe next fall no matter where no
finishes as Bin Kenworthy's suspen-
sion will be UP and he's cinch TO
take over the reins at the Rose City
next spring.
Duffy Lewis has a much weakened
ball club and will DO lucky IL he
doesn't wind up in the cellar with his
Salt Lake outfit.
iNdh ho"aIu ~ on trlal NJ YAK

empty stands he must have the club
In the race.
Bill Essick and Jack Miller. with
the one-two clubs or last year, are
the only pilots sitting pretty today
as the 1923 race starts
Yes, brethren, It's going to be a

NEW YORK. April 3.--Rumors are
IN travelling around Gotham with

won't fight any mere. and certainly
couldn't make the flyweighi limit NJ
for leaving dear old England, where
the worlds champion lives that,
say the rumors, is out OF the ducs-
ton.
Just how Jimmy will reply to all
these goshps remains n matter OF
speculation. Jack Sharkcy. Amnri-
can bantam, gave impetus TO the
rumors whom he returned from Eng
land and was quoted ms saying that
wilde told his cat, md the cat told
the dog next door, and the dog told
canary bird, and the canary bird
told Sharkcy that Jlmmy's fnmly
doesn't want him TO fight any more.

Tough Job
Ahead for
HdughtOn

NEW YORK. April 3-There never
' may he an accurate and final
way OF deciding whether coach
makes the players and the team or
the team and the players make the
coach. There are many examples
and number OF opinions TO support
each side Of the argument.
What results Percy Haughton &c.
oomplishes in producing n football
team at Columbia ought to 80 a long
way in shedding some light on IL.
Haughton is. by reputation nj least,
the foremost football coach and
authority in the country, and he Is
taking over football nj an institution
where. as far as material and spirit
are concerned. football hardly exists
Out OF an enrolment OF 800. Co
lumbIa has little more than 1900 "a
pick from. when the ineliRbles in the
postgraduate courses. the students In
the women's departments and the
athletes who have served their
three years az other institutions are
eliminated.
Being in such large city, Column.
bla has no chance TO develop the col
lege spirit that exists in an Isolated
university like Princeton. Cornell or
Dartmouth. where nothing exists but
the universities and their Deepen,
denotes.
Haughton has nothing 10 start
with, and the prospects Of very little
to finish with. II he puts Columbia
on the football map, like he elevated
Harvard several years ago. II will be
substantial proof that the coach has
a major role to play in the develop,
ment OF football teams. II no isn't
the whole show.
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1923-04-03

no introduction to Seattle fan
dom.
II is unlikely that wolv.r,on viii
carry more than five regular in.
fielders. which means that somebody
will hsye 10 be cut off soon. aitho
no plans 20 carry Ramage. Welsh
and Baldwin until he can place
them and he may carry them as
rockies all season.
A new outfelder will prance in the
garden. Ray Rohwer. the likabIe
University OF California graduate.
Rohwer doesn't fuss around much
on the ball field, but he can lacerats
that leather.
Everett Yaryan vii be new face
behind the plate. The big fellow will
win a home in Seattle as soon as
he whangs few OF his long hits.
Elmer Jacobs. vean Gregg and
Harry Gardner are back on deck
again TO do the hurting.
Among the new pitchers are John
Tesar. the lanky Western Lacquer:
Carl Williams. who pitched a few
games last fall and Is still consid-
cred new; Bill Plummer. with Port
land two years ago: Dutch Brandt.
the speedy Spokane southpaw. and
Fred Blake, the Virginia sheriff.
Harry Gardner. Elmer Jacobs. Ed
Barney. Ernie Schorr, Frank Tobin.
George Burger. vean Gregg. Pete
Richie. Brick Eldred and Bill Lane
need no introducuona.
And besides all OF the new men
men mentioned, don't forget Bobby
Johnston. the trainer. and wolver-
ton himself.
You'll certainly have to buy the
seorecard TO learn the new players"
folks, when the Redskins show their
stuff two weeks hence.
