MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, .TUNIS 28, 1910. i, 3 i t t u hk V k, J t I?. DOPSTERS ME BUSY FIGURING OUT JUST WHAT WILL HAPPEN BY aiAX BALTHASAR. MOANA SPRINGS TRAINING CAMP, Rono., Nov., Juno 2S . "Jim 1b in such Reed slmpo ho is beginning to got a littlo cranky mid that's ti suro sign. If ho didn't show a littlo grouch nt this stngo of tho gmno I'd think thoro wns something wrong with him." This is tho word, passed out in gladness, not in sorrow, by one of JoffrioB' trainers today. Although tho former champion is more tractable today than ho has been in any of his important fijrhts so near tho clang ing of tho gong, tho old feeling that all his trainers dread merely on ac count of their own comfort is beginning to nsscrt itself. True, his disposition is not such as to make it uncomfortable for his camp mates, but the old crankiness is there. His trainers are watching bis work and his actions now more closely than at any time sinco the giant confided to Farmer Burns four weeks ago that his condition had returned and that he had regained his old power and speed, muUthat his stomach, which is nine-tenths of his condition was in first-class shape. SELLING PIAONS llcquircs Hxpvricttrc, Hacked by Hus- lnoss Ability and a Desire (o l'lenso Kery Patron. With tho fccline; of optimism in spired by tho near-grouch, the dopo 8ters are showing the greatest activ ity they havo exhibited since the preparations for tho battle began. Bob Armstrong has pulled tho duration of tho bnttlo down to six rounds, with Jeffries being good enough, if Johnson will allow the whito fighter to get close, to havo n aico insido chanco to cop it off in tho first period. Farmer Burns is more conserva tive. His conservatism is not based on doubt of the ability of his idol to boat tho big black, but is the result of his inborn conservative spirit. Jeffries, ho declares, will win within 15 rounds, and if the fight goes longer thnn that he is willing to bet his clothes tho negro will bo so badly punished that ho will already have lost tho fighU "If it goes 15 rounds," said the Farmer, "it will simply resolve itself into a caso of endurance, and if there is ono thing Jim has on Johnson it is endurance." Roger Cornell argues along the lines laid down by Bums. He admits that tho carliJr' rounds may go against Jeffries a trifle, "but that with one-third of the battle over, provided neither man is badly hurt, tho tido will turn in Jeffries' favor. "Corbett and Choynski are not picking rounds, but say it will be a tough battle, with Jeffries outgaining and outlasting the negro. Jack Jef ies is confident of his brother's ability, but ho isn't telling anybody "whnt round it will end in. One feature of tho fight that is causing considerable comment is tho altitude. In spite of the fact that both fighters have shown since they began work hero that the thin air has not affected them, dopesters are wondering if it will not after all make more difference than the sport critics and trainers have admitted. One good punch in the stomach 5000 feet above tho sea level is far more harmful than one delivered at sea with the same supposed speed and n tap in the midriff that n short clinch would overcome in San Fran cisco or Now Yorkmight prove the turning point in a battlo fought in Reno. So tho question naturally arises. Will Jeffries or Jack land the first wallop to tho stomach? That this blow will have much to do with the outcome of tho battlo is pretty generally conceded. Camp followers havo noticed that Jeffries is perfecting his long left to the stomach and his jarring right at the sumo target in close quarters. For days he has been working on the stomach punch. Armstrong and Bums huvc been the ta.rgcfs for this practice, it not being Jeffries' aim to land so much as to gunge tho punch to such a nicety that he can step in with either hand nnd deliver tho blow with a minimized chance of receiving a re turn such as Johnson's deadly right uppcrcut or a ripping straight left. Tho terrible grind at Jeffries' training quarters is practically over. It has been going on sinco early in April, when ho established his quar ters at Rowardennan. Ho may box up to and including Friday and take short sprints on tho road each eve ning for the purpose of strengthen ing his heart, but beyond that he will do no more heavy work. One thing that gives joy to Jef fries' advisers is the report from the Johnson camp that tho negro is put ting in an eleventh hour spurt and that instead of showing speed in the work, he is slowing. It is argued that you can't make a thoroughbred go tho full routo for ten days before tho test and then expect tho animal (o go right on tho day of the race. If Johnson works hnrd until the day of tho battle ho will bo tired when he btcps into the ring, the camp con Since Monday mt ruing ,i n o'clock wo have sold eight pianos actually sold them can furnish any one with tho names and addresses.
