Wills FL00RED
ONCE IN LONG
RING CAREER

New York, Sept. Hilary Wills,
black panther of New Orleans, has
assumed the reclining position but
once in his long ring career. That
was at the hands Of Sam Langford
back in 1916 when the two negroes
fought historic battle in which
Wills was floored for the ten strokes
in 10 rounds. Later, however, Wills
vindicated this humiliation by
stretching Langford to the canvas in
two successive bouts in 1918, the
first bout ending in the seventh
round and the second one in the
fifth stanza.
In his long career, which started
back in 1911, Wills has lost but five
matches, two Of them to Sam Lang
ford. Sam Mcvea beat him to the
decision in 1914. In 1917 he lost to
Battling Jim johnson when he broke
his arm in the fourth round. Bill
Tate won a decision over him by
the foul route in 1922.

tonight. When they weighed in this
afternoon Firpo tipped the beam at
224la while Wills scaled PIT. Firpo's
decided margin in poundage came as
a decided surprise. 1t had been
figured that both would weigh around
220 each. Firpo's weight was great
er than for any of his previous I'M

cess of the figure he scaled tor his
title match with Dempsey.

his meteoric career. In his first
fight as an amateur he was stretched
horizontal down in his native Buenos
Aires by gentleman amateur. Anger

ring competition. That was in 1911.
In 1923 in the most hectic ring
struggle in modern history, Firpo
was stretched for the fatal ten once
again. this time the damaging right
of Jack Dempsey being the propelling
power which lowered the Areentlne's
center of gravity.
But prior to his defeat by Demp-
sey, Firpo was raging bull IN

Following his defeat in 1917, the big
Argentine started string Of victor

LAW PROTECTS
INDIAN HEAD
SIGNS IN n. ID.

The attention Of the State High
way Commission has been called to
certain vicinities where advertisers
have put their signs on the stand
ards of the official Indian Head
marker, the guard rails along the
highways and head walls on the cul-
verts. and w. G. Black, Chief Engi-
neer of the department, calls the
attention of these advertisers to the
fact that they are committing a
misdemeanor, says a recent high
way news bulletin.
"The law specifically states that
it is a misdemeanor to deface any
guide or mile post" says the bulle-
tin, land law enforcement officers
will construe the placing the these
signs on the posts that hold the Of
fetal markers as defacing the mark
ers. The markers and guard rails
are placed alongside the highways
as aids to travellers, not to adver'
tisers."
