Fred. Fulton Is going to lick everyone
In his division, he says. If Willard
doesn't soon agree to meet him in a
battlo for the heavyweight honors.
FuUon's manager, Frank Force, recently
declared that Fred was the only
fighter in the business worthy of entering
the ring against Willard and
able to give the champ a real battle.
There have been matches between
"Willard and FUlton signed up before
but every time something happened
to stop things before the fight could
take place. At present there is nothing
in the way except the seventy or
eighty pounds of extra weight that
Willard will have to lose before he
reaches fighting condition.
Willard is not eager to fight again
but the general idea is that If he must
fight he'd rather meet Fulton than
anyone el3e. It is probable that Fulton
would put up a3 good a fight against
I the champ as -any other, especially
aince he is almost as larze as Willard
and could perhaps reach him occasionally.
This is more than can be said
for many other fighters who are too
light.to be considered a good match
against the giant champ.
Fulton and. his manager have said
that if a match with Willard is not
soon fixed up they will start through
the heavyweight division and clean
up every one in sight. Frank Moran
was mentioned as one of the first of
thoee they'd trounce. However, a
match with Moran was recently offered
and Fulton and his manager
appeared to be disinclined. The reason
for this has been inferred by
some, who. feel that the promoters
of a "Willard-Fulton go called a halt
' to the Moran match. It is thought
that one of Frank Moran's hardest

brother of Joseph F. Hogan, illustrious
in ring anna's as "Philadelphia
Jack O'Brien." Young Jack
has been fighting professionally for
five years, and before that was the

amount of luster on the name of
O'Brien. . Old Jack was one of the
wiliest and trickiest ring generals the
game has ever had. He claimed the
heavy-weight Championship when
Jeffries retired, and fought a twenty
round draw with Tommy Burns in
Los Angeles ten years ago. but in a
subsequent meeting in the same city
the Canadian defeated him. Old
Jack was afterwards knocked out by
Stanley Ketchel and Sam Langford.
Young Jack showed great promise
when he began fighting, and Philadelphia
fans believed that ho was a
coming champion.

a job with Winchester in the Blue
Grass League. He pitched for the
Kentucky team three seasons, and
landed in the big show with the Cub3
In 3-911. He was used veiy little in
. Chicago, and in the spring of 3 912
was optionally rlcased to Louisville.
The Cubs recalled him in mid-season,
but soon turned him back to tho Col,
onels. In 1914 Toney won twenty.
one games, losing fifteen, in the
American Association, and was drafted
by the Dodgers, hut was turned
over to the Beds. Fred had been
knocked about from piTar to post
without having a chance to show his
goods in the big show, but his confidence
in himself was undiminished,
and last year he made a great showing
with the Beds. With a 1.57 average
of runs scored against him, he
stood second-in fho National League
in 1915. This year hlB work was
rather disappointing to the Bedbugs,
his average being 2.28, while he won
fourteen and lost seventeen contests.
