MADDEN WILL GIVE WILLS
CHANCE TO P
(By NOR.\IA.\’ E. BROW'N
For three years friends and fol-
lowers: of Harry \Vills. negro heavy
have charged that Jack Dempsey
has been shielding his heavyivcight
’crown by ignoring all attempts of
the "Black I‘antllcr' to get him into
the ring in a. title bout.
For about that some length of
time Dompsey’s admirers and many
sport critics have pointed out that
\Vills’ statement have not been
backed up by any performances that
could be used as arguments in favor
0! such a. meeting. In their behalf it
might here be state; that \Vills’ rec-
'ord does not show a decisive \ictory
over one first rate hoary.
But now \V'ills‘ big: chance lo‘oms.
He is booked for a fight May 13. at
Queens. N. Y., which should give
him the opportunity of proving his
worth and the validity of his claims.
He will meet Barlley Madden.
Madden may not be the cream
' but he is a tough man to boat. He
is husky. has endurance and cour-
age aplenty. He should ‘1‘: a mark
for Wills, however. if the colored
flash. is as good as his friends would
have him. Madden cannot hit hard
and in a much poorer boxer, often-
sively and defensively than \V‘ills.
Knowing that he faces little danger
of being knocked out “'ills should
wage an aggressive battle against
Madden and try his host to dump
him in short order.
If Wills rings the button with one
of. his snaky lofts and drops Madden

went down to the darkest corner and
lay down, covering themseIVes with
the hay. They stayed as quiet as
mice. for fear the farmer would
come home and he began putting
up his horses. ,
."Oh, Billy. if he should decide to\§
give them some hay and come up
here tor it. and discover us! He
would tell the soldiers where we
are.”
“Listen!"‘saJd Billy, “I hear the
patter of horses' hoffs coming on:
a gallop down the road from the.
direction of the camp. They are
hunting us on horseback!” ‘
“Oh, Billy. I am so afraid! I
I am all iii a. tremble!"
"Don't be afraid, little wife! We
are safe. No one saw us under
here. And if anyone comes up here
to capture us, I'll butt them off the
ladder onto the barn floor and they
will break their necks one after.
