JEFF PUTS ON THE
GLOVES FIRST TIME
Makes Sam Berger Want to Quit in
Few Minutes-Is Not
Muscle Bound.

Ben Lomond, Cal, April 13.-Fol
the first time since he began train.
ing Jeffries put on the gloves yes
terday in a fast three round bout
with Sam Berger. The bout was
scheduled for a longer duration, but
after planting his overworked face
in the way of several smashing left
hooks Berger decided his charge was
in danger of overtaining and called
off the match.
Il never felt better in my life. -
said Jeffries as he playfully doubled
up Sam with wallop in the solar
plexus at the end of the second
round. The third round lasted only
a minute and a half. as Berger re-
called an important engagement.
Jeffries completed the morning s
exercise by a ten mile run along the
muddy roads to Bowlder creek. Dur
ing the boxing. although the going
was fast, Jeffries scarcely drew a
long breath.
He no longer appears muscle
bound and his blows were delivered
with the old smashing drive that
made him champion. His footwork
leaves much to be desired, although
Jeffries never was especially fast in
sidestepping and lodging.

Pa Shaffer seems to have aroused
from his nap since giving out that
statement in which he predicted that
Chief Eastman. whom he signed for
Davenport, would burn up the league
this year. Yesterday Pa sent the
Indian his release, justifying the act
by saying he had so much talent for
the box he didn't think it necessary
to pay out any more money for rail-
road transportation.

Boston, Mass, April 13.-Frank
Klaus of Pittsburg, Pa, won a de-
cisive victory over Jimmy Gardner

and aggressiveness were lacking.
The opening match was a hard
eight round bout between Kid Good
man of Boston and Frank Madole of
Pittsburg, the latter having the bet
