Likely That JP illard Is Financing Boul
npHK story that .less Willatd is financing the chainpionsbip bout betpen
himself and .lack Penipspy seems logical when one dopes out the happen
ings of the last two months. 1'irst came thp upws that Willard had ionenteti
to box for SIOO.IIIKI and Tex Itickard had the signed aiticles. Then tempey
spilled ink nu Hip pa pels and everything was a I ranged except the place,
length of bout and the naming of a referee
After that theie lias been a ianit of news. Jlickaid has been tiael
ing in the West, paying lots of nttention to bis oil property, but saying nothing
about the big fuss. He is supposed to tell the world wheie it will be held
on May 4 and insists that nothing will be given out until tlyit time.
In the meantime, Willaid is training at his home in I.awtencp, Kan., nml
Is nnnoying no one. Dempspy is on a theatrical tour making lots of money,
ml neither lighter appaientlv is woiryitig over the details of the niati h. All
of which means they have an idea of wheie it is to be staged, the number of
rounds and know how ninth tiaining it will take to get into londitiou. The
chanees arc the battle will be staged in the West, unless long tlitniice bouts
are allow ed in New York.
r'or a long tiuip wip lyrxons have hinted that Willatd was thp main
BU.v behind the mateb, because of hi connection with bis circus and his
Inow ledge of the show biisiiipss. Thpy pointed out that the champion i too
Kooil u business man to pass up an oppoituuity to make a load of money
und appointed IJiekaitl his agent at a certain pei rentage.' We don't know
whether this is true or not, but. as was said before, it sounds logical.
Down in .Jacksonville a couple of weeks ago we met otie of the men who
Xxorketl for Willaid befoie the films was sold. He told us be was on Ins way
in join .less and woik for him until after the big Jight. He said many of

No. 3 Chicago's Entries
Exhibit A The Cubs
AVKTKUAN baseball observer offered Jlils sage observation a few days ago:
"Any ball club that has three pitchers who can turn in fifty-live victories
has a big jump toward the pennant. Ninety victories In a 140-game schedule
will almost surely xin. If three pitchers can turn In fifty-five vicloilps. it
is no great trouble in getting three or four others who can turn in the remain-
i ing thirty-five needed to get there.
! With Alexander, Vaughn and Tyler the Cubs cprtuinly have three pitchers
who can turn in the required rifty-the victories--'lus n few more. With
Uendryx, Douglas and others they have a staff capable ot seeming tha residue.
Alexander has been good for thirty victories or better for his last three
years. Last spbsoii .lint Vaughn turned in twenty-two conquests, xvhlls
I.efty Tyler compiled nineteen.
On past pprfot malices this trio would be good for seventy-one winning
games. Chop away eleven of these against accidents and such, and they will
I Iip good for sixty. This Ipaves Douglas, Hendry x and others only thirty games
' to put the Cook .county machine safely through.
For pennant-winning vu'I'oses the Cub staff looks to be the most effective
in the league,, not even barring Brooklyn whli (Irimes, Marquard, Sbcrrod
Smith, Cadorp, Cheney and I'feffer.
f(Ht tno aim 'iiili nt Alcjiimler nnil Vaughn linkerl together aie
nlyinightg mine to any hanehatt machine. And when yon recall
the lull' iletnih that nhoic the Cnhs able to win nrinus Alexander in
1918 yon tan arc trillion! the aid of n l.ick telescope where ihcu
Mould be with the Big Cannoneer on ijiiaii.
An Average Machine
Ol'TSIDK of the pitching staff, the Cubs have only a good average machine.
But they have one that is fairly sound. An infield bolstered by tbe vet
eran Merkle anil the brilliant young Holloclier is no flabby array of talent. 4
' The outfield is nothing miiaciilous, but capable of poking along nt a
moderate clip. Hut no great outfipld is needed with such pitching and a stronf
defensive Infield lioldingtli' line. ,
I Wie Cubs have a steiling factor nlso in Killefer back of the bat, a work
man always good for more than 100 games.
Vnless .John .1." Mc(!ruw can rouud up a tir.t-class pitching staff tbs
Cubs are almost certain to win again.
If Fevdy Sehiipp returns to form, aided aud further abetted by Hub
Benton. Barnes. Winters and possibly Fred Tone.v, the Cubs will have a
teriih'p. battlp'ahead before they cross the wilderness into the promised land.
For the (limits bae a much stionger attack and in Burns, Kauff and Younj

The slight Cub aditintagii tests in the fact that Chicago' pitchina
staff is a trdl-iitovcd quantity, while lhe (Hant slnlf is still a guess.
Exhibit BThe While Sox
THE main battle which the White Sox face at this young April juncture
is to finish in the first division.
We haven't run across a ball player on a ma! club who figures they

"The boy looks liko a xvoudcr," said
Kilbaue. With that awkward style and
his known hlttlnrpowers I look for him
trf cause much trouble among the reg

against the same handicap I xvas for
a number of seasons forced to con
cede plenty of weight. I.ew is a light
