The best information mvailable indicates that he is in train- Ing. but he declined today to see news- aper men, to' divulge his plans or is hopes, or to say anything about whether he wanted to fight Dempsey agaln, or had anything in prospect wlong pugilistic lines, Willard has been here two weeks or more, but no- body knew it until newspaper men. working on information received from the east, traced him to a leased home in a quiet residence section, where the telephone was listed under an- other name, and where Jess himself was admitted to be living, but could not_be seen. The Willard famfly has been here several months. Mrs. Willard placed the five children in school when she first came, and took a lease on the house the family occuples. Jess has told neighbora that he plans to stay here permanently and will either buy bulld. About two weeks ago Jess was seen about the premises, and gince that time he has been at home evenings, but absent in day times. Today it was said at the Willard home Jess was spending his time in the mountains. Pressed for the loca- tlon, the statement was changed to say that he was spending his time in Hollywoed. His fajlure to appear there at any of the motion picture studios where he fermerly worked, led visi- tors to inquire whether he has train- ing quarters in Hellyweod and is pre paring for a ring come-back. The question was evaded. Neigh- bers who have seen the big fellow say he is overwelght but otherwise looking remarkably fit. They advanced the guess that he was training quiet- 1y, in the hope he could get into such ehape that any challenge he might is- sue or approve would have the back- ing ef physical trim. : REINARTZ STARRED IN PRELIMINARY HEATS Tancaster, Pa, May 12—C.

While there may be only a dozen contenders, for the .$50,000 purse, the coughing epidem!lc having caused a number of important withdrawals, there has been no decrease in interest, and a record throng is ex- pected to jam the old Hilitop track when the horses go to the post. Before Miss Joy was shipped from Kentucky the filly worked the Preakness istance, » mile and one-eighth, in 1.51 2-5 seconds, with 125 mounds on her back. It is thought auite likely by dope- sters that the filly will g0 to the post to- morrow a favorite. Hephaistos' splend: performance on Wednesday, however, when he broke the track record at @ mile and a sixteenth, has made him a host of friends.

Not cnly does he outguess the hitter but he plays the bases with unerring judgment.

The Knights will have to show all that is in them to come away with the big end of the score.
