Willard Reached Top Through Sheer Preponderance of

"That's Good"
Ml thiouah the night I sat and said
'"'hat's ijnod" ;
I muttered, as I shook my head,
"That's good";
Quite oft I tried 1o help a pair.
Or play a flush, in dull despair,
To ansiccr back with vacant stare
That's good";
All through the night I anstccrcd back
That's good";
Yea, ever icilh the self-same crack
"That's good";
Xo matter how I male my swing
To play 'cm close or take a fling
never can draw anything
That's goad.
If Dcmpsey Won
IT WOULD be a nolnble thing for the heavyweight outlook if Jack Dcmpsey
could drive .less Willard back into the bosky dell nnd thereby bring the
game back to n reasonable basis again.
There is plenty of chance for action nhcjid with a S0 or 100 pound
chnnipiou.
Jltit when a prehistoric specimen around six feet six inches tall, weighing
beyond -00 pounds, witli n scventy-six-incli reach, arrives, the works are
badly clogged.
Willard reached the top through the sheer preponderance of bulk nnd
reach, plus just enough boxing ability to keep going.
When a fighter outweighs all rivals by fifty or sixty pounds, towers nbove
them by six or seven inches nnd has an advantage in reach ot half a foot, be
doesn't need much else to nail the decision.
If one could employ the ancient system and heave n brick, the odds in
weight wouldn't matter.
Hut to mix it with n bloke who can hold you off with one paw and stroke
you with another through mere physical bulk is something else.
A DVMPSO' victmy nould main quite it wamble. Hut bealini
Willard i' also another affair, unless his last bulk has begun
in dnay.
II nOLSIII'VISM ever anives in baseball the pla.vcr will no longpr merely
