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.'"

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. It is
not improbable that Darcy will be
!havo served in the war with Spain
who have been hoping to be granted
ipen8'0"8 Dv th's congress proba' ly
win be disappointed. Those hoping
governmental relief and recogni-
tion must wait another year.
