wv HATEVER the people know in
wv regard to where the Johnson
Jeffries fight will be held, the
public knows this much-it isn't much,
elther-that the principals are making
a great deal of fuss about nothing.
1t was expected that the site would
be known yesterday, but Jack Gleason
and Tex" Richard We're unable to
agree. 1t looks now as if "Tex'' has
not persuaded everybody concerned in
the State of Utah, and that 1t Is far
from certain that the fight will be held
there. An amendment to the law is
necessary before any kind of fight can
be conducted in Salt Lake. 1t looks
more like San Francisco than ever.
