PUGS NERVOUS UNDER FIRE
Champion jim Jeffries and George
Dixon Are the Most Notable
Exceptions to This Rule.

In speaking Of fighters who are nervous
when entering the ring an old time fight
Il have seen fighters with the stoutest
hearts SO nervous before a battle that
their hands trembling so Violently. The
most notable example OF this was Jack
McAunIIe- Any one who ever saw Jack
enter the ring to battle for the cham
pionship viii remember that he was as
pale as ghost for a round or two, and
that his color came back to him. There
never was a gamer man than McAuliffe,

fries, and l don't think these is anything
on earth that could bother them. Dixon
used to enter the ring as if ne was going
on the stage TO box sparring partner in
an exhibition: / have seen him write a
letter 10 q friend ten minutes before he
was TO fight for the championship, and
on another occasion he sent his shoes out
TO be slined because he was going to at
tend dinner that was to be given in his
honor after the fight Nothing on earth
seemed to bother him.
Then, there is Jeffries- He is as cold
as piece of ice at all times. and cares
an opponent than he does about eating q
meal When the date of a fight ap-
DrOaches he scarcely gives ii a thought,
finished or is about TO undertake. He
doesn't know what il IS 10 be nervous
about anything.
Jim Corbett was a high strung fellow
and on the day OF battle was so nervous
and irritable that he couldn't give his
best friend a civil answer. Yet, for all
that, he was great fighter.
Peter Jackson was also very nervous.
on the morning of a fight ne would be-
