THE SEATTLE STAR ane May an Rare ig “mm Worth a Million Dollars,” Says Jess NEW YORK, Feb. 5.—A million dollars! It’s a lot of coin, bat that’s te Jess Willard, former heavyweight champion, says he is worth today. Oil, sale of his circus’ jpaletle k, and other deals have piled up the coin for the big fellow. Willard says it’s not the dough, but the chance to win back the heavyweight crown, that toppled from his dome when Jack Demp- sey knocked him almost loose in Toledo in 1919, that makes Willard so anxious to fight again. That’s what he says, at least. The former champion has returned to Kansas after attending to business in New York. He says that the shift of the date for his bout with Dempsey to Labor Day suits him.
