Farrell V YORK, July 28,—When Jess Willard was counted out in his | corner on one knee, with Luis Firpo | standing behind him cockee to send over another right hand, ma of the 100,000 who saw tho fight felt that the former heavyweight champion had quit cold. E a doubt that his courage was | not sufficient to get him up off the or was no nice thing for a former | champion to carry out with him in his last fight. | No one but Willard ever will know whether he was really out and un bie to continue or whether he fig. lure J that the end was inevitable and Ithat he would ape punishment and | possible permanent injuries by get- j Ung out when he had a good chance. It is certain that Willard made no | violent effort to get up on his feet, but it may be that his leg muscles had become partially paralyzed, even lif his head and his mental faculties pass not impaired. Ray Archer, Willard’s business manager, Was frank enough to admit that the big Kansan could have got ten up, but that he would only have gone down again as he was thru. Criticism of Willard’s actions de pends on the point of view and it brings up the old question of ethics. In Burope an athlete who is hope. lessly beaten and who endangers himself by continuing, can “retire” in good grace and nothing is thought of it. Mile, Lenglen did that in the United States, and they are still talk ing about it because American ethics of sport require that an athlete should go thru or die. Willard left himself open to sus- |plcion, however, because he was charged with doing the same thing at Toles: when he refused to come NLY a Si the few ttle people can of distinction of shaking hands with President Hard- ing yesterday Among this select and proud group is Solly Seaman, New York | lightweight boxer, who grasped the president's hand as well as received jn friendly word. | It all happenea Preus club last evening, Solly saw the president coming out of the club, following the big banquet, and in front of the from his corner in the Dempsey fight | after he had taken a terrific beating. Tt is rather strange that in both instances, Willard decided not to con- tinue after he had takon the worst of the beating and when it seemed that his opponent was spent. Ali of American sportsmen do not agree, however, that a fighter should run the risk of permanent injuries just for the sake of being crowned for gameness. “Why should he have gotten up? He knew perhaps that he couldn't win, and the wise thing for him to |do was to take the count and escape the danger of being badly hurt. No one can say that he took a dive and no one can deny that he took a bad beating all the way thru the figh Jack Britton, former world’s welter- weight champion, said after the fight. ILLARD has retired now from a game that was very good to him, Altho he never had a shot at the purses that are being given to Jack Dempsey now, he, nevertheless, earned a little fortune in the ring. He never liked boxing, never had the fighting instinct of Jempsey, who really iikes to put on the glove Willard was always mis- understood and rather disliked by the public. It must have been an unusual and pleasant experience for the former champion to hear 90,000 fans in cho- rus shouting: “Come on, Jess," when he had Firpo in a bad way in the fifth round of the fight. Willard might have responded four years ago, but he couldn't that night He was too old and too “thru” to de- liver. eee IGHT after the fight, Willurd’s handlers said that he was suf. ‘SOL SEAMAN SHAKES HANDS | | WITH PRESIDENT HARDING decided tempt.

Criqui is going to France on August 2 and plans to return for more fights. fering with neuritis in his left arm and that doctors had been treating it for several days before the fight: Since then several experts have printed stories that it was known on the “inside” that Willard had broken up in training and that he was not in condition to fight. Tho same experts, even up to the day before the fight, were writing that Willard was in the best of con- dition, that he was almost as good as when he took the title from Jack Johnson and that he was in condition to put up a great fight. \ Only one story was printed before the fight that Willard was not in condition. That story was written by Jack McAuliffe, the. retired, undefeated lightweight champion, and it was carried by the United Press, MoAuliffe admits that he did not know exactly what was the matter with Willard, but he knew that he was not right, and that he was not in shape. beat Firpo. Jack Johnson say there are three heavyweights who can beat the champion: Luis Firpo, Harry Wills and Jack Johnson. Willard has fought both Dempsey and Firpo.
