WILL CONTEST MONDAY J mm Jack Dempsey Will Take on Bru ising Bill Brennan and Fred Ful ton Will Try to Handle Frank Moran in Effort to Get at Champion's Rich Title. c HICAGO, Feb. United States, By Luther A. Huston 22. (I. N. S.) At opposite ends of the Monday night, contenders for Jess Willard's coveted title will launch drives that probably will narrow the , logical aspirants for the world's heavyweight championship down to two. One bout will see Fred Fulton, who has ranked as the leading contender for several months, in action against Frank Moran, whom Willard once defeated at New Orleans. The other will see Jack Dempsey, the flash from Utah, opposed to Bill Brennan, the Chicago knockerout, at Milwaukee. Dempsey Just now is coming along faster than any other heavyweight in 4ha works and as a result his performance against Brennan will be watched with keenest interest. The bout with Brennan will give him. his biggest test. Bowled Tares Fasteners Over Bobbing up out of the West a few weeks ago with not much of a rec ord back of him, UempHey has bowled over three heavyweights of some abiMty. "lie stopped Homer Smith by a knockout in leas than a round, got a decision by a wide , margin over Carl ' Morris and put the ancient Jim Flynn a notch 'nearer oblivion by a two minute knockout. Brennan is a tough, rugged battler With one of the deadliest wallops of . any of the heavyweights. If Demp sey can defeat him he will be a big jump nearer the title. Fulton Expetted to Win Fred Fulton, who shows erratic tendencies at ttmt-H. is expected to win from Moran at New Orleans. 1 Fulton, at his best, is figured a bet ter man than the blonde Plttstfurg Irishman who is thought to have rone back since he was beaten by Willard. Moran, however, baa been keeping in shape by instructing sol dier boxers at a southern canton ment and is confident he will beat Groundkeeper Is On the Job Let The Battle Begin Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 22.

Two days ago he applied at the hospital for medical aid, saying he was penniless, and death came to him m the charity ward as a result of pneumonia and complications. ,. His wife waa notified pf his serious condition. She reached his bedside just before he took the last count. The passing of McGovern marks finis to the career of one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of all featherweight champions In the heyday of his career McGovern was a tiger in the rooed arena.

As featherweight champion of the world, McGovern earned thousands of dollars. He was one of the most popular fighters who ever wore a . pugilistic crown and he had often been ranked as the greatest of the great quartet of former feather weight champions of which he was a member. That quartet, with Mc Govern. consisted of George Dixon, ' the great negro ; Frank Erne and : Young Corbett. Threw His Wealth Away That he should die in the charity ward of a hospital, broken and pen niless, seems a sad twist of fate, t but like many other great fighters. McGovern threw his wealth away. McGovern was born In Johns town, Pa., in 1872. Had he lived until March 9, he would have been 89 years old. He was of Irish American parentage and his given name was Joseph Torrance. At the age of 17 he started his boxing career around his home city of Johnstown and rose rapidly as a f. 8 AVE - a m t m VN1TSO STATS M covaawMST m Overcoats -AT- $18 and $20 There's a time for everything and how's the time to get your overcoat You can! do no better than see the coats that we are showmglnow at these two prices.- There's every style you could think of here, light weights, medium weights, heavy weights and rain coats, and they're exceptional values.

He did not confine himself to his own class, for he stepped out to meet men who had an advantage over him in weight and his terrific punches Btopped every man who faced him in 1900, his one bright year as champion, in less than 10 rounds. In 1901 McGovern lost his coveted title . to Young Corbett of Denver, who knocked him out in two rounds at Hartford, Conn. McGovern at that time was growing out of the featherweight class. Corbett - had already outgrown it. Later both stepped out of the featherweight cirele to enter the lightweight di vision. Though Corbett fought with success as a lightweight for a time, McGovern was unable to fight his way to the top.
