or better condition than L ever was
In my life, and L can promise the
mans end of the ssbattIe of the CEN

taken care of on July 4.
There has been some talk about
the high altitude affecting me.
am not worrying about that L have
always been able to stand the aIti-
tude wherever I have been. Just be-
fore L went into training at Ro-
wardennan L was In the mountains
around Tehachipf for some time at
an elevation of over six thousand
feet. L climbed mountains and did
lot of other work, but even then
it never affected me. II 1T didn't
then 1T isn't going to now, after
the careful course OF training that
L have been through.
Up here In Reno, where there is
plenty of warm sunshine and good
most perfect form L have ever been
in.
1 feel that the people of Nevada
are glad 30 have the fight take place
ON Nevada soil, and L am going to
give them the best that Is In me.
That is all man can do, and I think
1T will be enough to win on the day
of the battle.
