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.

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.
