HE'S IN TRIM
Better Fitted Now than When
He Hopped Into Ring
With Jack Dempsey.
NEW YORK. Feb. 22. Iiy his own
personal anil exclusive mission weigh
ing 250 pounds in his elastic sleeve
garters, Jess Willard has proclaimed
his belief that he iis in better condi
tion at this non-essential moment
than he was when the bell rang for
the first round at Toledo. O.
He Looks Better
We will not take issue with Jess on
that point. Indeed, we will go fur
tiler and declarp that indubitably lie
is in better condition than when the
bell rang for the fourth roun 1 on that
memorable occasion. However, we
dtsgress to no purpose.
“I weighed 259 pounds when I
stepped on the scales at Madison
Square Garden two days ago," de
clared the ex-champion. “If I had
to Jump into the ring with Jack
Dempsey tomorrow I would be better
fitted morally and physically, to fight
him for the heavyweight title than 1
■was in the Toledo affair. Make no
mistake, if I get another fight with
him. you will see a different Willard
in action."
Eye Is Clear
For all of the derision lovoloH at
lilm by gentlemen of the press, Wil
lard's appearance does not belie his
■words. His eye is clear, the muscles
of his face are firm and compara
tively lean, his skin has a health*
tinge and his abdomen, never sylph
like, is noit an ex‘brewer's. One ob
