The tall Kansan, who now tips the scales at 240 pounds, arrived In town last night and had a lengthy conference with Tex Rickard, the promoter. He said that he had been in light training for several weeks. Is Confident. In his typical quiet drawl Willard declared his defeat at the hands of Dempsey was an accident. "I am satisfied I can beat him. I was un, fortunate at Toledo. But you know setbacks come in the life of every man. For instance you can't name a ball player who plays year in and year out. without missing a fly ball now and then. I missed a high fly at Toledo. Willard indulged in a guffaw that shook his sides when he was asked if he wanted to fight Dempsey in order to replenish his financial store. "I wish I did have less," he said. "Maybe I would not be bothered so much with income taxes. I don't care about the purse; all I want is a chance to show the public that I am a better fighter than Dempsey."
