Hart- FOOTBALL FIELD PREPARED 1 FOR Willie Heston, Formerly of Grants Pass, Oregon, Former Quarterback At Michigan, Is Now a Police Court Judge At Detroit, Michigan Football, He Says, Builds Up Strength of Character and Body. Deroit, Mich., Jan. 30. (United Press) "The things I learned on the football field are the ones that fitted me for life. The fact that I went to college for two reasons to soak tip knowledge and to learn football was the greatest point in my preparatory life." ; That's the way Willie Heston, for- merly of Grants Pass, Oregon, former quarterback at Michigan university, and twice selected on the mythical all-: American eleven, has the thing sized J up. Willie is a police court justice j now in Detroit, and he isn't known as Willie any more. He's Police Justice William M. Heston and he puts it ; over. i One of the ambitions of Judge Hea- ton's life was to rid himself of the name "Willie." In school and after wards he did his best to shake it but to no avail. Finally he got himself elected judge and they had to quit ; calline him "Willie." I Heston declared that if every youth were given the chance he had to learn football to get the spirit of fair com petition in sports drilled into his sys tem there would be little need for police courts. "I know what it has taught me," I he said. "I believe it would do as ; much for any other man. When I see ' poor, weak, spineless unfortunates come before me for one crime or an- other the wish that he could have seen service under Yost or Keene Fitzpat rick hits me right between the eyes. If he could have had that training he wouldn't be living the wrong kind of life. "Probation and parole are two things that have resulted from my gridiron training. I know that when ever we were beaten we always were cheered by the thought that next year we would have another chance. I don t believe there's a man alive, who, if given the opportunity to put every thing behind him, would not glory in the thought of another chance. That's what the parole is for, and I'm a firm believer in it. "Studying football in colleges may be the subject of a good many jokes, but it builds strength of character and strength of body. With these as sets a man can be a good student. When he gets out into the world (he traits football has put there will make a useful, honorable citizen of him.'"

Hart man Co., successors to Hartman & Thompson. York has resulted in an overwhelm-1 I ing opinion among iew lorn newspa- pers in favor of Miske. Each time, : however, there have been enough dis i senting voices to make it quite appar ! ent that enough of a shade was not earned to warrant a decision. 'In the ! first 'bout, two papers awarded a de cision to Dilllon, while two others called the bout a draw. Such slamming and banging as has been indulged in by these boys cer tainly calls for a better opportunity than has been afforded in New York with a referee who refused to rec ognize that QueenBberry rules call for a man to fight with one arm free. They deserve a bout somewhere where the proceeds will be enough to com pensate them for the splendid exhibi tions they give. Also, they deserve the decision that would be given. New York promoters undoubtedly will be after a return match between the boys. The fans like that kind of milling and they'd be the greatest at traction possible, with the exception of Les Darcy, in their division.
