Battlers Are Training for Contest
By Boh ,
- Johnny . Sheppard, European light
weight champion who meets Belnie
Schuman at the Armory Monday night
before the Portland boxing commission,
has a record which in reality makes
him loom as a serious contender for
the crown- worn by Benny Leonard. v .
Joe Woodman, veteran manager of
many- a good fighter, including the al
most Invincible Sam Langford, and who
is given to telling' the truth .whether
It be in favor of his own boy , or his
boy's opponent, told an Interesting story
about Sheppard's career Wednesday aft;
erneon while his battler , was being
rubbed down after a strenuous workout
at the London club.
BEAT ALL XJT ETJROPK t . - .
' "Johnny's name is not Sheppard," said
Woodman, "but Shaplrio. ; He wa born
In Whitechapel, London, 20 -years ago,
and is of - Jewish parentage. He ' has
decisively defeated every boy In Europe
at his weight of 138 - pounds, and has
gone through 31 fights of 20 rounds
without defeat. Most of his fighting
has 'been before the National Sporting
club, of which Lord Lonsdale is a hearty
supporter, and before The Ring, a club
sponsored by Dick . Burge, the old . En
glish welterweight.. ; - i y- i-, ;
aw'Sheppard is ambitious, is always in
ringside condition, has not one'toad habit
and has never been knocked out, ;' He is
the gamest fighter I ever saw In a prize
ring. . His almost superhuman gameness
has won him innumerable fights . after
he has appeared, almost whipped.
"He .came to the states In November,
1919, and has had four figtits over here.
His first -fight-.was . in ; January. , when
he was hardly acclimated, against Richie
Mitchell, one of your j toughest light
weights. The fight was for H) rounds,
without decision, but the Milwaukee pa
pers called it a draw.

"Sheppard next fought Eddie '"Fits-"
simmons at Detroit. Mich., 10 rounds,
and Fitzsimmbns was entitled to the
referee's decision. Sheppard waa.:"- not
knocked down nine times In the first
round, as reported, but j was sent down
five times , in the fifth round, one of
which was a legitimate knockdown and
the other four of which wereifoula
Fltzalmmons hid behind the referee when
Sheppard was down and . would-, rush
out and drop him when he would get
to one knee. .The bell saved Sheppard
in that fight. But Sheppard. surprised
the crowd, and brought it to . its1 feet
in the seventh round by scoring a clean
knockdown against Fitzslmmons. I am

Oregon Grid: Style
Adopted by Harvard
:
- tTniversity.of Oregon, Eugene, June 17.
Oregon's football system forms the
piece de resistance in Harvard univer
sity's spring football practice. according
to Frank Scaiefe, Oregon graduate who
returned this week from his studies in
the Harvard medical school.
Mr. Scaiefe reports that the Crimson
coaches are making every effort and ex
periment to fathom the mysterious style
cf play by which the light Oregon team,
"outlanders" they almost seemed, held
th great Harvard eleven last New
Year's day, -
The Harvard stadium sees the coaches
working with their squad daily, and Mr.
Scaiefe declares that, though they have
succeeded in mimicking the outward ap
pearance of the slashing attack and un
faltering defense of Oregon, they have
still missed the essential secret
Harvard's coaches have been frank
ly outspoken in their admiration of the
style of .play they met at Pasadena, and
have evidenced . desire to be acquainted
with its intricacies. Charles Hunting
ton. Oregon's coach, however, smiles
noncommittally and assures one that he Is
giving out no Information on that score.
It may be that Oregon' will want to
play Harvard again some day.

"Sheppard's third fight was with

went six rounds, and the papers di

shade, but feel that Sheppard would
whip him decisively in a longer bout.

Sheppard won with the utmost ease.

on boxing .for a living, although he has
