All Accept AS Final Murphy's Opin-
ion On Fighters Condition

OF all the fight experts who are at Reno
covering the Johnson-Jeffries fight, zone
has attracted as much attention as Mike
Murphy, the world-famous trainer of
athletes.
He is there for the Philadelphia North
American, and when he pronounced James
J. Jeffries in fit condition to give a battle
to his huge colored antagonist, the opinion
was flashed all over the country and quoted
by all writers, because it is known that in
the matter of physical condition his word
is final.
Mr.. Murphy. who is athletic director at
the University of Pennsylvania, who train
ed the team that won the last intercollegi-
ate meet and also prepared the American
athletes for the Olympic games in England,
is said to know more about the human
body, athletically considered, than any
in the world, and his reputation for honesty
is as great as his ability.
Murphy's training articles will appear
daily in The North American, including
Sunday and Monday morning. On Tues
day morning will appear his comment on
the fight. Adv.
