' i !j ft .ti" MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 1910. f ' i I M i i'R II 4i Ml M li FANS PUZZLE OVER OUTCOME OF BATTLE: WILL IT GO ONE, FIVE. TEN OR OVER THIRTY ROUNDS? BY MAX UALT11ASAH. MOANA SPRINGS TRAINING CAMP, Bono, Nov., Juno 20.- "I think Jeffries will rush in nml clean up in two or three rounds." "No, ho won't; ho'll feci out the hlnck fellow for seven or eight rounds, tnkinj? a pood bentinj? in the meantime, and as soon as he finds the nepcro is becoming discouraged because his punches nro doing no damage, then he'll sail in and finish things up." -Why should he sail in and finish things up!"- "Why should ho wait? Why should he hold back and let the negro cut him to pieces? All Jeffries has to do is to stick out his chin, Jet Johuson drive his hardest and when tho champion sees that the wickedest blow he lins in itoek cannot down his opponent, Johnson will be pie." "Nothing like that. Johnson is too clovor. ITo can stnll around for nn almost Unlimited number of rounds and it will simply resolve itself into a question of endurance. If Jeffries is thore as good as ho looks when he works there will be nothing to it. I figure that under theso conditions Johuson will last about 30 rounds." And so on ad infinitum. .- Gather, a bunch of fans of the Jeffries persuasiou and that's the Fort of talk you will hear. Jeffries -will win in one round, six rounds, fif teen rounds, twenty rounds or thirty rounds. Never has opinion as to tho duration of a big fight been so vary ing with the ultimate result so cer tainly fixed in the minds of tho judges. Even in Jeffries' camp the picking of rounds is as widely at variance as tho selection of the win ning number ou the roulette tables that one mny discover with a littlo effort and the aid of the cappers. Work Is Puzzling. To those with a merely superficial Imowledgo of what a boxer should .vdo, tho work of tho big fellows is quite a puzzle. Jeffries is loafing too much, they think, unmindful of the vast amount of labor he has gone through. On the other baud, they think Johnson is digging in too hard, forgetting that he has not applied himself until within the past few ""weeks. ti?.- Cutting into the low-down, the many unusual training phases of this contest aro enough to put the stern- est conditioning mathematicians to the bad. Jeffries passes the word that he is going to work his hend off. Instead ho lays around and chats hi the morning and winds up the day "with a little joust with the trout. Johnson, with a program of foafing, tears into his work like a colored brother trying to depopulate the en tiro chicken world. It's n funny Kainc from any angle, and many dopesters will be surprised when the battle ends Monday. Strange Contrasts Shown. In other ways the fighters show strnugo contrasts from day to day. One daj Johnson shows speed and confidence. Tho next he appears to bo halfhearted in temperament as "well as in his work. Jeffries never loses confidence. In fact, he seems k to gain it, his off days developing u greater spirit of determination and 1 doggedncss than when ho- is feeling Reed. But it is the manner in which Jef fries puts aside his work that causes tho greatest comment. For instance, on Monday after Jim had pulled off bis early morning boxing stunt it was Riven out officially by Manager Ber ber that his work for the balance of r tho training spell would consist of boxing in the morning and thort "heart" sprints in the ovening. Not only did he entirely reverse the uro gram, but after switching the "heart" sprints to tho morning, ho cut out tho expected boxing in tho afternoon and and a mbdown after dinner. It is utterly useless to accept a program or even guess what the big fellow will do from now until Fri day, when he is expected to cut out nil work and hurl himself into tho nerve-racking drying-out process, but he may box and ho mny sprint, and he may loaf. They are making books hero on what ho inteuds' to do. and you can write your own ticket. Tomorrow the renl betting will be gin. Last night 10 to G was the pre vailing price. Some guess it will go to 10 to 7, and others look for 2 to 1. Whichever way the coin is laid here is expected to make the price throughout the United Stntcs, al though England may continue to make Jeffries the short-ender. Will Jeff Go Kiglit In? There is n tip out thnt Jeffries will put forth his best endeavor, as a matter of pride, to end the battle within 17 rounds. Johnson some time ago predicted that he would fin ish the white man within 18 rounds, and just to go him one better, Jim wants things to be wound up in his own favor within 17 rounds. The quicker the finer is still his slogan, and if he can wind the negro up in a round he'll do it. Jeffries is sporting a mural deco ration of the left eye, a momento of Monday's boxing session. Tho guilty person is not known, each of the four spnrring partners claiming the honor, with Berger baring a good lead in the lists. Disquieting rumors regarding a number of minor physical ailments suffered by Jeffries have been circu lated about Reno. Ilis trainers ad mit that he has had a slight attack of stomach trouble, and this accounts for his failure to do much work yes terday. Corbett, one of Jeffries' principal trainers, has experienced the same trouble. The water here is blamed for their slight attacks of in digestion. Another report says Jeffries' right elbow is inflamed and a minor opera tion may be nec6ssnry nt once. Dr. W. S. Porter of Oakland attended Jeffries when he hurt his knee while training for the Munroe fight at Har bin Springs. Dr. Porter also recent ly performed an operation on Mrs. Jeffries. Dr. Porter had a consul tation with Jeffries today. It is re ported that he mil tap the big fel low's arm today. Betting took n spurt late last night and the odds opened half a point, going to 10 to GV that Jeffries wins. The point betting mt the rounds was Too Late to Classify t'OK HUNT 5-room house, $12; with bam, $15. 1111 Novth Hlver sldo. SS FOH UKNT Sovon-rootn modern house, furnished, close li. 32U So.

Sho has been prevailed upon to sing a few selections nt tho Savoy the ater tonight by Ed Andrews and other friends. Mr." Andrews says: sho is one of the greatest singers he- over heard for her age. Miss Da vis was born in Roseburg 18 years ago and is a typical western grrl, tall, graceful and slender, can ride a broncho like a cowboy and an expert with a shotgun. At her Summer Lake ranch last season she killed -IS ducks in two hours and forty-five minutes. Miss Davis will resume her journey tomorrow, moving via Klamath Falls and Lakcview. Lovers of music should not fail to hear Miss Davis sing tonight at the Savoy, as she is'eonsideivd to luive one ot the most wondcn.nl voice.- of the age, and has made a great hit wherever she has appeared.

RICK'S TRAINING CAMP, Reno, Nov., Juno 2p( Every effort is be ing mado to keep Champion Jack Johnson in a pleasant framo of mind, to prevent him from worrying over his little affair with Jeffries on July 4, nnd to keep him from developing a case of norves. All is morriment at Johnson's camp. Today's hnseball gamo, nt which tho big black will act as umpire, is intended to keep him from getting fretful. Mock trials nt night, whore Johnson's police court speeding experiences make him feel perfectly at home, fill in tho eve nings, and with music nnd hnntor tho days aro passing in n way that would make a casual visitor think thut preparation for n fight was tho last thing in tho mind of anybody about Rick's resort. But thoro is a Jot of earnestness undor it all, and tho negro and his trainors aro really working hard to oe roauy ror tho battlo. Opinion is divided over Johnson's condition. His followers say he is in better shape than over before. Oth ers do not fancy his stylo of work and 'complain that he shows speed only at intorvals. There is consider able truth in' this ohurge. Johuson puts looso only when stung by one of his sparring partners. At other times ho is content to block and stop tho punches. Johnson will go through his stunts this evening for the moving-picture men. He will spar, skip the rope, punch the bag, do some shadow box ing, run past the picturo mnchiuo ns though hq wero hitting it up on the road and possibly wrestlo a bit. Tho champion can bo depended on to put up a good show. Ho is always ac commodating when publicity is at stake, and naturally ho wants to ap pear at his best in tho pictures. Evon in the fight Johnson can bo do pomlod upon to remember thut tho picturo machine is stirring in tho cornor, nnd ns long as ho cun ho will be grncoful and picturesque. YOU AND YOUR FAMI-!
