MUCH SATISFACTION EXPRESSED
OVER SOUTH CENTRAL SHOWING

Although the South Central hus-
kies went down to defeat before
the Broadway Hi eleven, there is
almost as much jubilation in foot
bal circles as if the score was the
reverse. All realize the wonderful
showing made by the local lads
against a team heavier and more
experienced, and as they ponder
over that 5-to-0 score there is much
ground for congratulation.
Too much credit cannot be given
to the scrub eleven, for its numer-
Gus battles against the regulars
during the past two weeks, in
some of which the second team
proved victorious, gave the regu-
lars just the sort of trailing they
needed.
There is talk of diSbanding the

BY SAMUEL BERGER
Manager and Backer of
James j, Jeffries

written especially for The Press
The public is wondering wheth
er Jeffries can regain his old form
The question of the coming fight
hinges on that point. If Jeffries
can become his old self there is
no question of how the fight will
result. So, in the first place, let
me say that we are sure that JEFF
fries can develop himself into
even stronger and faster man
than he was before.
Jeffries has done a thing which
no fighter in the history of the
ring has ever dared to attempt.
Ever since we left California nine
months ago Jeffries has lived like
a priest. He has denied himself
everything and has followed every
last health rule. 1t has been the
most rigorous treatment a fighter
has ever put himself through. I'm
derstand me, this does not mean
training. The training is yet to
come. This is only developing
health as a foundation for the
WOrk OF training. Let us suppose
that the fight will not take place
until July 4. That will add seven
months to this priest-like living
Jeffries will finish off with 80 days
of hard training. The perfect
health will be there as the fOunda.
ton and we will have the old JEFF
fries.

many people doubt Jeffries' abil,

They tell how Johnson "sneaked
in" to see the Jeffries- Rubin fight
in San Francisco. He walked out
to the Mission A. C. early in the
morning and sneaked into the
arena with several other would-be
free spectators. Half q aozen or
them crawled under the ring, hop
ing to remain hidden there until
the arena filled with spectators,
Iherc Johnson lay for 10 hours,
only to be hauled out by watch
man when the arena was cleared.
Johnson walked around the club,
and finally jumped over fence

Dame Fortune works fast among
the prize fighters. The career of
Jack Johnson shows this,
Johnson is on the top of the
heap now. When he meets Jim

jEFfR|ES WILL WHIP JOHNSON BECAUSE
He Will MAKE Him LEAD, SAYS BERGER

angel compared with Fitzsimmons.
Let us admit then that Jeffries
can regain his old-time form. Hav-
ing done this, what can we EXPECT
of him in the ring? Here he is
weighing perhaps 220 pounds. He
is so fast that he is able to run
100 yards in II seconds. Here you
have the fastest big. man that
ever entered the ring.
How will Jeffres defeat John
son, granting all this?
1t is very simple. Jeffries win
make Johnson lead No one has
ever been able to do this to the
negro before Always Johnson has
fought with weaker or smaller
man. The result has been that he
has not had to force the fighting,
or lead. It's one of Johnson's
tricks to lay back and let the 9TH
er fellow wear himself out. But
Jeffries is so strong and powerful
and his reach so long that Johnson
will have to lead.
Jeffries' footwork will be so fast
that Johnson will nave to lead
even more. The more attention a
man in fight pays to leading the
less care he can give to his guard.
So the odds will be against the ne
gro. With all of Johnson's leading
he will be sure to give Jeffries
many chances to land, and really
all that Jeffries needs is just one
good, fair chance. 1t will be a
knockout fight and l do not antici-
pate that it will go over 20 rounds.
1t must be understood that JET
fries is going into this fight to
meet the demands of the public.
For a number of reasons the fight
will be distasteful to him. But the
public said FIGHT and he will
He knows that his championship
claims are clear-cut, but he wants
the public to regard them in the
same light.

Kaye, the clever 1875 FOUNDER of the

There is nothing doing so far as
