NEIW YORK, March 9.—One week's work'in the gymnasium of the Pioneer A. C. hasn't made such an impression upon Jess Willard, who meets Frank Moran in. the garden two weeks from Saturday night.

He's still away-off the form that he was in when he won the championship and to several people who saw him work yesterday it will take him many a day to reach* the conditio^ that Moran dislay (fright now.
