Copyright, 1916, by The Pree Publishing Oo. (The New York bvening World.) LL this fuss over Jess Willard’s indisposition in Chicago has, very muoh the look, at a dis- tance of a thousand miles, of an at- tempt to get more time for training, | No matter what care Willard has been taking of his physical well-being, he! {certainly hasn't done any training) work that could compare with what) «he did before the fight with Jack| 4 Johnson. For that battle Willard spent sev. eral months in studying out a good defense and perfecting It in every de- tall. He finished his preparation with about three months of gruelling work with a large staff of sparring | partners, under the supervision of Tex O'Rourke, who is one of the pest «training directors in the country, » 1 saw the last few weeks of Wille ard’s training, in the tropic heat of Havana, He worked daily with yards of heavy flannel wrapped about his body under his tights.

MET Jim Savage, who was one of Willard’s chief trainers, “What do you think of Will- _ ard’s chance in the Moran fight?” I asked. “He should knock Moran out,” said Savage promptly. “Moran ts as game “ag they make ‘em, but at the best _ he’s only a 200-pounder, He's a featherweight compared to Jeas. “You know what a tough, gume, clever fellow Walter Monahan is. He weighe twenty pounds more than Moran and is an inch or so taller. , You aw how Jess handled him in Havana, Like the rest of us, he was , & obild in Willard’s hands. “Willard doesn't know his own strength. I never felt such strength «in any other man. If he had the gelf- confidence of Jack Dillon and was ewilling to go right in and use his strength and his terrific hitting power I don't believe there's a man in the world who could last thirty seconds with him. I am positively eure that if Jess hadn't planned a long, careful fight, taking no chances and intend- ing to wear Johnson down to a help- less state before knocking him out, he could have knocked Johnson cold ja the first round. Willard doesn't know his own power. ‘He is careful instead of self-confi- dent. It's almost impossible to hit him hard enough to make him feel the effect of the blow. In training he ofter held out his chin to me, or left his body wide open and invited me to hit him without being coun- tered. Sometimes I hit him with everything I could put into the | punches, and I only hurt my own hands. I didn't even make him mad, I don't think Willard can be whipped until he gets old and loses his won- derful vitality. W letic officials have practically agreed to play the picturesque Army-Navy football game in New York every year. ‘The Army people always insisted that the spacious Polo Grounds was the logical place to hold “the contest, which, with its military pomp and presence of State lumi- “naries, is the most spectacular sport- event of the season, e Navy folis liked New York, but objected to the jong trip from ‘Annapolis. As a compromise both academies arranged to play one year in Philadelphia and one year in New York for a five-year period, Franklin Field in Philly seats only 81,000, while the Polo Grounds can take care of 60,000, The 19,000 extra tickets finally convinced the sailors that New York should be the scene of all future gridiron battles. + It is reported that a syndicate of Philadelphia business men through public subscription will raise a fund to erect a stadium for 75,000, but it 1 | now evident that the Quakers tarried | ‘a Mttle too long in their plans to keep the Army-Navy battle in Philly, B's: BROWN was talking about ST POINT and Annapolis ath- Jim Coffey, “There's nothing the matter with the big Irishman except that he fen't in the best condition,” said Bill, who is one of the best experta on con- Aitioning in the country, “Coffey hasn't a ‘glass jaw.’ That’ all nonsense, He took many a hard clout on the jaw that didn't hurt hin He's weak below the waist, That’ his trouble.

But, of course, I'm not in that line of business, I wouldn't have time for anything of the eort, Coffey needs rough outdoor life and hard work in the open for a long time, He's been training at Croton? Sure, but I know how he's been training there. In a stuffy room. He might as well have been in town, If he was @ made to live, work, sleep entirely in the open air for a’ fow months, and walk and run and work like a fron- real big leaguer, after a veteran, to take a chance, But, as I sald, that is the only possibility of will be F Thinks So Well of Alexan- der and Walters That He Won’t Try to Secure Any Veteran Backstop to Steady Young Pitchers. By Bozeman Bulger. CCORDING to Wild Bill Dono- van, the one thing standing between him and a real fighting ball club of pennant winning calibre —and a remote thinfy at that—ts tho Possibility of neithef Alexander nor Waiters making good as a catcher, “Those two fellows are young,” sald Wild Bill, “and if anything should happen to give them a check I would be without a reliable catcher. Ihave no veteran backstop to keep the boys in balance. I do not anticipate any trouble in that direction, however, for, in my opinion, Alexander is one of the best young catchers I ever saw and toward the latter part of last sea- son he was getting better every day. Walters didn’t have much chance to show what he could do, but In the few games that he did participate in he displayed all the earmarks of a I think so well of those boys that I am not going out We are quite willing slip-up. “With the signing of Frank Baker our infield is strong, and we've got some boys there who can hit. not figure on shelving Peckinpaugh, as many appear to believe. good a flelde the others will only hit, the team can well afford along just for his flelding, At that there were but two or three short- stops in the business who outhit him last season.” I do He is too to put on the bench, If to carry Peckinpaugh “What about your pitchers?” “My main dependence of course her, Caldwell and Shawkey, Russell, Mo- but we've got Cullop, geidge, Markle and a lot of atars from the minors hanging around, By the way, do you know that Shawkey pitehed some remarkable ball for us toward the end of lust season? He was in many a tough luck game, but always pitched great ball, notwith- standing the fact that he was beaten by small scores, He ought to be a big help this coming season, “With anything like good hitting bebind them, Misher, Caldwell and Shawkey ought to win fifty games easily. That would leave about forty for all the others to win in the event that we won a pennant. Ninety games, you know, will come pretty near copping the flag, Still, Lam not claiming any pennants, But I want to say that I feel mighty grateful to the Captain and the Colonel for the material they have given me, We are going to be in the fight whether we win any pennant or not.” “Do you think Fritz Matael can make good as an outfielder?” I asked him. “Yes, I do.” he said. “That boy oan do anything he wants to in the baseball line, and he's orazy to play in the outfleld, He has played out there before, and can cover @ lot of ground,” In the mean time the American Leaguers are gathering at the Wal- cott to adopt a edhedule and talk over plans for a couple of days.

Lindley Murray and Watson M, Washburn won places in the semi- finai round of the national indoor championship tournament yesterday on the courts of the Seventh Regt- ment Armory. Murray fairly flogged the ball in his match against Dr, A. W.

Walker jr, @ @pirited youngster of the type across the net, Somehow or other, Walker made recoveries of Wash- burn’s streaking drives to the base Une, He led at 4—2 on games in the first set, That was sufficient to stir the former Harvard star to his high- eet fliighta of volleying and driving. He performed s0 ably as to score the next ten games in a row for the match, at 6—4, 6—0, The position of the two ‘famous players in the singles will \bring Murray and Washburn together in the mateh for the final round bracket Saturday afternoon, The progress of the doubles also produced one thrilling session in which W.
