CORBETT ON HAND SOON
Jeffries Will Profit by Gentleman
Jnn's KNOWLEDGE Of FIGHT Game.

New York. May 14:-Jim Corbett,
unless he changes his plans will leave
New York the first Of next week for
Jeffries' training camp, where he VIII
assume charge of the task of prepar-
ing the big fellow for the Johnson
fight. Corbett is in pretty fair condi-
ton himself and says that after he
has been at Jeffries' camp for ten
days or two weeks he will be able to
make things hum i'm the ring.
If Corbett is allowed to have undis-
puted authority at the camp it is be-
lieved he will make several important
suggestions. among them being the
engagement of one or two rugged
heavyweights "who can mix it up witt
Jeffries in earnest" Corbetts friends
says he favors the engagement of q
man like Kaufman, Barry, Flynn OF
Ross, who can hit hard and is also bis
and strong enough to receive heavy
blows without nnching. That kline
of work. in Corbett's opinion, woul'
do Jeffries more good than light spar
ring. but it remains to be seen whether
Jeffries accepts this advice with favo
| or not.

feet. H.f
Hal took long lead off second. and
just as Pitcher Oberlin wound up he
started on q dash for third. Cree saw
what was coming, and that it was up
to him TO hit the ball. He swung low
and bounced a grounder toward Sec

as Hal turned third. Dutch" hesitated
a moment on the question of throwing

Chase would STOP at third, ne threw TO
