was not permitted to box I'm public
But after The performance, Johnson
at my request went on for four
rounds with his sparring partners,
Monte Cutler. brother Of the wrestler,
and Jack Heinan.
Johnson's partners weighed $50 or
1855. and are big. husky individuals,
but alongside Johnson they looked
like middleweights. Neither man Is
making q reputation for cleyerness.
but both have a wallop, and some
day they'll know what to do with
II.
Johnson told both to get him II
they could. which was perfectly
safe, for neither could lay glove
on the big guy In week OF Sun
days.
But despite the lack OF science on
one side. I saw four spirited rounds.
Johnson played with those two
chaps las a maiden toys with a
glove" The style OF the two In as
different as the rule OF three and n
financial experts advice. Cutler Is
headless. rushing fighter who goes
in wide open.to land the -baymaker.
He starts from his : hip and swings
overland. The. punch Is telegraphed
ST far In advance that Johnson had
time 20 move to the next county
had he desired. Heinan Is the
cieverest OF The pair and has a fair
lHft hand.
johnson held himself wide open
time and again and did not move
out of his tracks. but not glove
landed anywhere but upon his
shoulders and arms. -~.,
.Meanwhne. he slapped his left in
and cut and around in a dazzling
manner, TO show what he could do.
Once in q while he'd start that up

been written.
I felt sorry fer Cutler when John
son whipped the punch up. follow
iHg one OF those ridiculous upper
hand swings. but he always landed
Under half head OF steam. so
Monte wasn't bunged up any.
Johnson could have put away
beth men, despite the big gloves,
IL two rounds. had he desired.
Throughout he fought fatfooted. de-
pending upon blocking and moving out
OF reach by swaying his body out OF
the line OF attack just enough and no
more.
Only when Cutler made his impet-
uous PUSHES at the beginning OF his
wild swings. did the big fellow step
about; and then. apparently to prove
that he knew what to do with. his feet,
he leaped backward six or seven feet
aud met Cutler, who stumbled for
,ward from swing that missed by
several feet, and Strengthened him by
catching him under the arm, instead
OF by walloping him.
Against finished boxer OF his own
size and weight Johnson would not,
of course, take the chances he did
with these boys. but he convinced me
that he has the art Of self-defense
down to fine point. Just how good
ne can fight I'm going to decide after
July 4, when. he meets. a real OPP
