These stories, which indicate worry- on the part of Willard over his condition almost on the eve of the battle, have thinned still further the ranks of his enthusiasts. Zt is felt that a worried and brooding- fighter is half beaten be. lore the first gong ring's.

July 4th can be dispelled. believe that way they do not change.
There's no more chance of a radical Dempsey always has contended that

And so it Is -with a fighter. Dempsey is naturally aggressive, a cyclonic performer, who hurls himse-lf with all the power within him at an opponent with the f.rst crash of the 'bell: a man v ho never stops until the last gong has been so;ndfd. or "taps" has been chanted over a prostrate form. Willard. through all of the years of hi3 fistic career, has been a defensive warrior, a man who realizing that his forte is in permitting the other fellow to bring the fight to him. has always done that very thing. Dempsey has triumphed by rushing and he feels that is the only way. Willard has achieved success by standing
Jess Willard. "Why should I take the aggressive?" countered Willard when someone aked him if he plajiueti to make a shift and go out after Dempsey instead of waiting for Dempsey to come on. "I whipped Johnson by waiting, didn't 1? And 1 whipped all the others by letting them come a.t me. I'll do the same thing with this far-famed slugger.
I want him to rush me. The more he ruhes mo the better I'll like it. I say he can t hurt me. and the fight will prove it. But when I get him coming in at me. something is going to happen to him." The question was put to Dempsey. "I'll fight the only way I know how." was his answer. "And that way la to fight my man. I'm, not going into the ring to do any Marathoning or to stand off and look at dear old Jess. I mean to drop him in tfis quickest time possible. The only way I can accomplish that ix to get In close and paste him with all I've got, and keep on parting him until he goes to sleep. He may think he's going to hold me off. So did Fulton and so did Morris. Fulton thought he Could do it with his long jabber but he dldn"r. And Morris figured he could clinch and rough It wlfh me. He didn't. "You can bet on It that WJHa.rd won't ht-ad me off. They say he's got a great runch. If he has, lfs something rather new. I've looked through his record and I don't see any evidence of gret punching. He couldn't flatten Morris. Moran. Pelkey. Smith. McMahon and a whole lot of others. It took him half an afternoon to knock out the "all in Jack Johnson. In view of that I wonder how the great 'champeen' gets the idta he. can polish me off. "Tou bet all you've got." concluded Dempsey. "that about one second after the first gong rings. I'll begin operating on Willard and I won't stop until I hae removed his rusty title."

TAD'S DOPE ON BIG FIGHT
By TAB f STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N SltVICI) TOLEDO. O.. July 1. "I haven't objected to the referee. I haven't objected to the interpretation of ' th rules," said Jack Kearns today. "But one thing I will insist upon and that is the referee is the sole boss in that ring while the fight is going on. He must do tha ordering, he must do the breaking and he must give a decision in case of a foul. "Can you imagine two judges at different tides of the ring trying to watch
for a foul blow? Cn"t be done! "The referee will decide fouls or Jack Dempsey won't fight. you know I'm not so worried oer a bum decision as I am over Willard. I won't believe that
he intends to fight until he Is in the
ring. He threatened to run out on tho Johnson fight at Havana, and he threatened to run out here unless Rickar'i refereed but Tex made him stick. "Say. he threatens to buy a ticket to Lawrence, Kans.. every day. I wouldn't be surprised to hear him say any day now that be doesn't like the town and take a train for home. He isn't so fond of fighting Demrsey. "When he tells you writers that this Is the safest thing he ever had he's Just whistling to keep up courage. That's the old Bunker Hill that softest ever He's scared stiff right now." It was learned today that the big fellows are to fight straight Marquis of Queensbury rules. Of course no one knows exactly what "straight Marquis of Queensbury rules" are at that. A rule is a rule, straight or crooked. They all add or subtract from to them. The men are to protect themselves at all times but are not to hit In the. break. That is neither man will be allowed to hit while the other is stepping back out of a clinch. The kidney punch 's barred as is the rabbit punch. This
rabbit punch is a slam usually delivered while the men are at close Quarters. It is a soak on the back of the neck or the back of the head. It is called the rabbit punch because a blow on the back of the neck with a stick is the usual procedure in sending a rabbit Into kingdom come. Freddie Welch declares that it Is one of the most dreaded of all punches. Fackey McFartand hit him with the rabbit punches in one of their battles and Freddie says he had to lay off boxing for nine months as his neck would not set straight. Milburn Baylor made a great rep in Australia some years ago by knocking out his opponents with the rabbit punch. They hadn't heard about it out there un
til Saylor came, but soon barred the blow, declaring it to be a foul punch. Thera has been less talk of fake connected with this quarrel than at any other big event that has taken place within the last ten years. Battling Levinsky. who once quarreled with Dempsey and found himself kissing the canvass, is found out to be the greatest Dempsey booster in Toledo. Tou know, of course, that Levinsky was loaded to the guard rails with dough to bet on Willard don't you? He wouldn't bet five cents against a million dollars on him now. He has bet every nickel
he has and all that he can get on i Dempsey. He says he can't une Willard j at all after the fourth round. j "The hold-up guys fire still going! strong. They have been very good, j They knocked over bankers, Uwyr?.:

The hot sun has him pretty well tanned, but his eyes seem glassy, and he opened his 1.0200 like a gold-fish coming to th top of the bowl for air. He may be in wonderful shape. No one knows but hltnself. but he doesn't look anything '.ike the bronzed Dempsey.

BOXING BILL IS KILLED
SPRINGFIELD. 111.. July 1 Gov. Lowden yesterday vetoed the Illinois boxing bill. He said he did so because
he believed the bill to be clearly uncon
stitutional. The feature that he ob
jected to he said, was that relating to
the powers of the athletic commission that would have been appo1rtd by the governor if the bill had been permitted to go upon the statute books.
