Wins, en the others la brushing aside his foremost rival, has stepped back Into the position of logical contender for the title worn by Cempsey. Off and' on he has held this distinction for the last three years, challenging the title holder Wjth patient but unavailing persistence. It Is no novelty for him.

and there Is now.no chance he can fulfill his hope of a battle with the champion for at least a year. But convincing as was Wlllss triumph over Firpo. and Its proof hat he had come back to remarkable fighting condition, his performance did not In the opinion of most critics brighten whatever proepect he haa of dethroning lerapey To those who watched the arlant negro pound and wrestle his ponderous opponent into subjection there remained a conviction that, for the present at least.

It was a straight light to the chin that sent Firpo sprawling to his back la the secoad round, but though the Arg entiae wee on the verge of a complete knockout.

Wllla could not successfully follow his advantage. That ontatanding blow was delivered under unusual circumstance. It came aa they were breaking from a clinch and with Flrpo's guard down, unsuspecting Wllla. aeeing his sudden opening, shot over his right, and It landed squarely and with full force. but Firpo wae quickly on one knee and back lato the ray.
