GORDON And SHERRARD
They Want to WrestIe War EAGLE and
the YourG Turk or Refs in
Handicap Matches.

The Forum has received challenge
from Billy Sherrard, who is now in
Minneapolis. He says that John Cor
don, the mill city cop, will agree to
throw War Eagle three times in an
hour and Sherrard will agree to throw
the Young Turk twice in thirty minu-
ties or to put ole Refs down four times
in thirty minutes.
AS War Eagle is reported around the
head of the lakes it is not likely there
will be a match.

That suited us to a dot. winner
take ali" we wired JEFF, but he didn't
want any part OF Martin and there
was no fight
we then signed up with Jack john
son, thinking that some easy money
was in sight. Our dope went all TO
the bad. What Johnson did to Martin
was a crime Martin was never bet
ter, but no matter how he tried he
couldn't put glove on Johnson. II
Martin hadn't stuck TO my advice
johnson would have put him away in
a few rounds The fight did not satisfy
Martin. He got a return battle with
Jack. but i'm two rounds johnson
trimmed him to perfection and sent
him to dreamland before the bell
changed for the finish OF the second.
Battled Under Wraps.
When / came east after the first
battle I informed all my friends that
Johnson was the greatest fighter
ever saw, and my opinion has not
changed. There is hardly any doubt
that in all his date fights that Jack
did not battle under wraps. He was
always cagey and never wanted to
let the public know just how good he
was The two tussels with Burns and
KetcheI were boobs, There were two
dangerous fighters and possessed the
punch that could knock horse down.
When Jack put Ketchel away he beat
a man that is as good as any heavy
now I'm the ring Jeffries never
struck me as being anything out OF
the ordinary. He is a big man and
has the bulk that denotes almost sup
erhuman strength. OF all his fights
the only one that amounted TO any
thing in my dope was when he licked
Fitzsimmons at Coney Island.
Fitzsimmons was a good man in
those days and JEFF deserves credit for
that victory. When Jeffries whipped
Corbett at Coney Island he didn't lick
the real Corbett, but man who had
seen his best days. When he as Civ
en- the decision over Sharkey In his
second fight there was hardly any
doubt that a draw would have Been
fair to both men. Again, when Gus
Rubin fought Jeff a 20-round draw
twelve years ago he didn't show up
very high. Rubin had learned what
fine points ne knew of the game in
seven weeks and chased jeff around
the ring for twelve rounds. If Ruhlin
had had the experience of Jeffries he
would have beaten the latter to a GER
tainty. ......
There is one thing about the fight
that amuses me greatly. You will hear
a lot OF folks say that If Jeffries gets
back to his old form he will make
Johnson jump out Of the ring. In the
first place. it is impossible for Jeffries
to return to the shape he was in when
he gathered in his laurels, and, again
IL Jeffries enters the ring in perfect
condition, he will not beat Johnson.
for as good as he was, he never was
a match for this big colored wonder.

which goes to show that the series was
a tie. Baptie stated today that a west
erner had little chance of recognition
or fair play at any EASTERN athletic
meet or vica versa at a western meet
and regretted that such a condition of
affairs should exist in the United
States. He has written Wood three
times for race this winter and has
not even received an Acknowledgement
OF any of his letters. He offers to skate
Wood at any time or place for any
amount and says he wishes to settle
the championship of the world once and
Tor all with Wood, before he retires
from the ice skating world.

BILL MADDEN PICKS
JOHNSON over JEFF

Billy Madden writes: It's a pretty
hard thing to have to say that you
think that a colored man is superior
to white man when it comes down
to question of the championship of
the world, but in my honest opinion

IA managerial standpoint over thirty
years and am only using the dope of
those many years to form my conclu-
sion Of the finish of the coming big
battle. In my time made John L.
Sullivan the worlds champion;
Charley Mitchell, the champion of
England; Jack McAuIiffe, the holder
of the lightweight title, and in addi-
ton brought Tommy Ryan, Gus Rub.
lin, Peter Maher and others before
the public
Getting down to the big fighC / can
only say that Johnson is a very clever
man; as clever a fighter as ever saw
slip on glove. And behind that he is
there with the wallop. That combina-
ton generally brings home the money.
Another advantage that the black man
has is that he has not had the easy
times that fell to Jeffries' lot during
the past five years.
While the big fellow was taking
matters easy down in the land of al
falfa, Johnson was busy hustling
around fighting to keep the sheriff
from the door. Don't forget that
Johnson will appreciate this in the
battle for the title.
