For years a regular ball, player.
The Dodgers have gone 221 innings now
without a run. Rariden's single in the
fifth gave the Reds one tally.
Barnes hung up the first shutout a
Giant twirler has scored this year, the
Cubs being victims. It was the fourth
straight defeat for the Cubs.
The once hitless White Sox - had no
trouble in finding Caldwell's offerings
and consequently the Red Sox, 7 to 4.
Dutch, Leonard may soon wear a

star who was traded to the Yankees but
refused to report has been turned over
to Jennings and the latter ;is now try

The Pirates had no trouble in beating
the Phils, piling up 13 hits ;and 8 runs.
After walking three times, Shotten

Willard Planning for Bout
Los Angeles. May 17. (U. P.) Jess
Willard is moving with more energy In
the direction of his- July 4 battle with
Jack Dempsey.
There has been a speeding up of work
and plans all around in the Willard
camp.
Willard announced today that he
would leave Los Angeles about May 29
and that he would go to Toledo direct
to do his heavy training without mak
ing the previously projected side trips
or stops.
Also he let the public get a good,
square view of bis training activities.
That was to Willard's benefit, for It
showed that if reports are true that
Willard is wrecked by dissipation and
he denies he has dissipated then he is
a demon for that brand of punishment.
All who saw him agreed Willard looked
like anything but the wreck he had been
pictured.
Willard said he intended to step into
the ring at 245 pounds, adding he
weighed 2394 when he met Johnson
and 249 when he fought foran. He ad
mitted he couldn't get down to the
Johnson weight, although he and his
trainers said he had been getting off
the tonnage at the rate of half a pound
a day this week.
Willard's training schedule now in
cludes 20 minutes' fast work a day. He
boxes one or more rounds, shadow boxes
a bit. wrestles a little and does a stren
uous turn with the weights and pulleys.
After that program his wind seems
pretty good. Then he parboils a while
in sweat towels and gets on the scales.
Yesterday the scales showed 281.
