Sam Berger VINO is travelling the
show route with Jim Jeffries, and
who, it Is understood, will be the big
fellows manager when JeffrieS takes
up the gauge of battle again. thinks
that the San Francisco sporting writ
ers have dealt rather severely with
the retired one.
The writer Is one of number who
received letters from Berger touch
Ing upon the point In question
In his communication, Sam says:
From the reports | get from time
to time it is apparent that the press
of San Francisco doubts the SINGER
ity of Jeffs statement that he will
again enter the ring. It seems strange
to me that you should doubt the word
of this fellow, who never In his long
career In the ring has broken faith
with the public.
"If you could see the change in him
physically you would place little cred
ence in the idea that he Is not on
the level 1t is impossible for you
to imagine the change that n regular
routine of exercise has made In him
He works every day after the afternoon
performance for an hour and a half
You would have to see him in order
to fully appreciate the progress he
has made. He is Just arriving at the
stage where he feels, eager to don the
mltts and / have an awful time per
suading him not to overwork himself
"No words of mine could impress
you with his intentions to the same
extent that one peek at him would.
There is nobody back here who has
not every confidence In him, and /
feel that he is one member of the box
ing fraternity who has earned the re-
work along until the end Of this con-
tract, and then, after that is complet-
cd, we will be prepared to sit down
and talk business for a match with
the black claimer. BY the way, have
yoH noticed how strangely silent he
has become since jeff has announced
his intention TO return"
Jeff Should Be More Definite,
No, Sam, / cannot say that ! noticed
any strange silence on JOhnson's part
unless it is part of the great sill
cnce that has fallen on the public

HyIand to Fight Nelson.
On May 20, If all goes well, there
will be a lightweight championship
contest at Conroth's arena between
Battling Nelson and Fighting Dick Hy-

The Ogden standard. [volume] (Ogden City, Utah) 1902-1910, 1909-05-22
JeffrieS Should Name
the Date OF Fight

Nelson will be regarded as foregone
conclusion This because he is the
champion and has worked his way
to the front by ding.dong fighting
against pugilists of every known style.
1t is manifest. even thus early how
ever. that Hyland will not be friend
less when he goes against the Danish
crackerjack. Dick is one of your stur-
dy, plodding sort. and If there's any
thing in the theory that many batter
ings sap a ringman's vim, he will have
one advantage over Nelson at the
starting time
Hyland is a conscientious trainer.
and he has looked forward to this
thing as the fight of his life. He has
been working quietly for many weeks
and has merged gradually into the
full swing OF training.
Nelson on the other hand, has led
an inactive life for many months. and,
champion though he may be, it almost
poncnt too cheaply
Nelson will have barely two weeks
of training to put him In shape TO de.
fend his title. He claims that this is
sufficient, and he seems to entertain
no doubts as to the result of the en-
counter. There are some. however,
who, remembering how badly the
Dane cracked up with Jimmy Britt at
the Auditorium, would prefer to have
seen him devote more time to his pre-
paration for Hyland.

Jeffries fought me the second time in

Johnson will have a good chance to

DAY OF
{ HE RACE
MEET

Yesterday saw the close OF the first
running horse race meet ever held In
this city, and TO say the least. 1t was
4 decided success. The owners OF
the horses which participated in the
meet Just closed, started Thursday TO
ship their stock away. Two carloads
of the thoroughbreds went to the
Butte and Canadian tracks, and the re-
mainder to Salt Lake City, where the
Utah Jockey club will hold a forty day
meet, beginning today.
Scores of horses have been quart
cred at the Salt Lake stables, for the
past month or so, and II is claimed
that the number now at that tract;
will almost reach the 500 mark. The
followers of the race game In the capi-
tai city are quite enthusiastic over
the coming meet. and II is expected
that the $4,000 worth of purse events
to be run will prove of great interest
The management has decreed that
none of the results shall be given out
until the close Of each days program
To this end telephones have been eX-
cluded from the grounds and the only
wire at the track will be n telegraph
wire, serving outside poolrooms, This
decision Is made in IN endeayor to
