She left them at their home in Lawrence; Kfinsas, came to Toledo un- announced j‘st night and, with Wil- lard’s attorngy, occupied a seat in the $50 section yesterday afternoon while her husband was being battered to de- feat. No one in the huge crowd ex- cept the champion himself, knew she was there. When the bruised and battered giant of the ring was brought to the home he had occupied in Toledo’s exclusive residential district, Mrs. Willard was there, eager to wcare for his wounds. She put him on a davenport and sat at his side, applying soothing iced cloths to his closed eye. Mrs. Willard left the arena after the towel was cast into the ring at the start of the fourth round. The beaten champion was taken to the Casino, his itraining camp for a month, where he was bathed and lirst-aid given his injuries. “1 am sorry that Jess was beaten, but I truthfully can say I am happy he’s no longer champion,” Mrs. Wil- lard said. “I mean now that we shall be able to live in peace. Jess will be- come a private citizen again. It was the second boxing contest T ever wit- nessed and I do not want to witness any more. I shall be happy when I can take Jess back home to our chil- dren. Although the fight was over before 4.30 o'clock Willard did not motor to his home until an hour and a ‘half later. He said he did not recover from the effects of the left hook that Dempsey landed early in the first round until perhaps an hour after he left the ring. ‘“That was the blow that me on defeat,” Willard said. physically able to continue, head wasn’t clear and my eye was closed and I realized it would have been useless for me to attempt to box while half blinded. “Dempsey is a remarkable hitter.

I sincerely wish Dempsey all the luck posible and hope that he garners the riches that g0 with the championship. T have had my fling at the title. I was «champion for four years and I want to assure you that they'll never have to give a bene- fit for me. T have invested the money I have made. ‘When the beaten champion motored to his home with Ray O. Archer, his business manager, and his sparring partners the porches adjoining the Willard house were alive with women dabbing their eyves with handkerchiefs. ‘It seems as if there has been death in the neighborhood,” one them said. “Well, T tried it once too often,” was the greeting Willard gave them. The champion had a Turkish towel draped over his head to obscur> his bruised face. He does not expect to leave Toledo for three or four days. sun-baked started Sl felf but my a of ., Toledo, Ohio, July 5.—Jack Demp- | sey, the new champion, will remain in Toledo until Sunday night his mana- ger, Jack Kearns, announced last night. *“We have a dozen theatrical offers,” Kearns said, “and Jack will probably open in vaudeville next pweek.” Dempsey's first request after win- ning the title was that a message be sent to his mother, Mrs. Cecilia Demp- Yy, in Salt Lake City. “Your boy made good. Knocked the big fellow out in three rounds,” the telegram read. “Willard is a game fellow,’ Demp- sey declared. “I never handed out more punishment to anyone and have him come back for more as Willard Klid today,” he said after the battle. Dempsey made a hurried change to his civilian clothes after his vic- tory and was taken in an automo- bile to his headquarters in a down- town hotel. Hundreds of admirers greeted him as he alighted from his car at the hotel and the lobby rang with Dempsey cheers for more than 15 minutes. *"The crowd was so great at Demp- sey's hotel the new champion was forced to make an exit through a back door in order to reach the Union Sta- tion, where he went to greet a number of friends who had traveled from Phil- adelphia on a special train. Dempsey received another ovation at the rail- w## station and had to again make an jcape in order to keep the crowd from tving up traffic. Dempsey's Mother Glad. Salt Lake City, Utah, July 5.—-Mrs. Cecilia Dempsey, mother of the new champion, shouted with joy when the flash reached her that her son had won, the championship. “I am overjoved,” she said.
