Willard is bound to tire early in the fight and to be- come more tired as the fight goes on. Unless he picks off Dempsey at the start, I can’t see that he has a chance.” PRE CEP sO ARMY AND NAVY CLUB MEMBERSHIP GROWING An increase in membership of 19 within two days time is announced by Harry Fisher, seeretary of the Army and Navy club, and member- ship of 506 will be the goal of a cam- paign waged this summer.
