The big blasted “hope” who! figured in the hippodrome per- formance with ck Johnson last June still has an idea that he has the goods, although few share it. Moran was matched ast month to meet Bombardier Wells London the lat- ter part of March, and he r at least become heavyweight champion | of Great Britain. | Moran was born March 18, 1877, ! and his birthplace has been various- ly wished on Cleveland, Pittsburg and, County Mayo, Ireland. The latter has perhaps whatever credit and hon- or belongs to the native baillwick of the man who participated in the worst championship fight ever staged. Pitts- burg has been Moran’s home since hls youth. He decided to take up the profession of dentistry and entered the University of Pittsburg to fit him- self for the job. At college Moran was prominent in athletics and espe- iy as a football player. Standing feet and an inch and weighing / 200 pounds, he was ideal ma- terial for a gridiron hero.

Johnson turned him down, but Moran persisted, and one night when Jack’s regular sparring partner was off his feed the big dinge per- mitted the blonde giant to put on the gloves with him. When ‘they went out on the stage Moran rushed at the champion, and the golden smile faded for a moment when Johnson realized that his new partner was going to do his worst. It was some littie rookus while it lasted and had more action in the three rounds than the Faris fight had in twenty.

After several bouts in Pittsburg and other cities in that part of the country he made a trip to Texas, and early in 1911 went to London, where he defeated Al Palzer and several British fighters. Up to this time Moran had been defeateld only once, by Jim Savage. Upon returning to America he lost to Tony at Cleveland and to Jack and Gunboat Smith in San Francisco. 1In 1913 he was defeated by Luther Me- Carty in New York, but knocked out Al Palzer in the same city.

A Not “Pi”, Mr. Printer, but P-J-E. It's the real old toothsome pie for you, too, when you get hold of LIBERTY tobacco. You're never mussed up when you've got LIBERTY.

And LIBERTY is always the same—al- ways satisfying. We don’t let LIBERTY go out of the factory until it has been aged from three to five years, so that all the rich, mellow, nat- ural sweetness of its Kentucky leaf is at its best. When you're tobacco hungry, you want clean, honest juicy tobacco with some back- bone to it. switch to some other nothing can compare downright tobacco satisfaction.
