Umpire Van Sickle of the American as
ISOLATION applied for the position by mail

The reason for this move is that Cap

real work when another player or some
spectator is umpiring. This prompted
Clarke to ask President Dreyfuss to get

On battlefields the courage of the

white race" as Jeffries has been
termed, will have his own power as
an asset and will be able to display it
under conditions favorable to him.
Few of the thousands who have
troOped behind Jeffries. applauded him
or shaken his hand, know Jeffries the
man. An inclination to shrink from
publicity, which Jeffries has often dis
played is as near surlinesS as il is
modesty. He IS not an entertaining
conversationalist All his eloquenee is
in his fists. Most of the notable ring
successes have been gained by over
powering strength.
Nothing bores Jeffries more than the
attention of fight fans who try to get

AS a schoolboy Jeffries seldom en-
gagged in fistcuffs. A New York bust
ness man who knew Jeffries in his
early days In Ohio and California said
that he might have picked Jeffries for
a piano mover, but never for fighter.
But aroused There is another JEFF
fries. When he shifts uneasily in
chair, or grits his teeth, he is either
about to leave the room or start some
thing" He usually leaves abruptly.
Years of pleading on the claim of
patriotic duty, assurances of fortune,
the appeals of closest friends were
necessary to bring Jeffries, the stole,
before the public again as a fighter.
Then he wanted to train to see whether
he would ''be right" Satisfying HIM
self on this point, he plunged into the
preliminary work, accepting every
chance that added to his bank account,
and the publicity end of the coming
championship contest Jeffries has de-
termination. unfailing courage, re-
markable strength, and the support Of
a majority of the AnglO-Saxon race.
Against this huge, undiscovered
framework of Jeffries negro of skill
will contend. Johnson has more con-
fidence in his cleverness than in his
strength, but above the waist the cham
piOn is powerful. Johnson is a born
boxer; Jeffries was developed gradu-
ally. Experts who saw Johnson half
dozen years ago say he could box as
well then as he can now. Johnson has
repeatedly refused to let himself out
in bouts, having as an excuse that he
did not want to scare matches away"
The Test Point.
The psychological moment will arrive
when Jeffries removes his bath robe in
the ring and is greeted by admiring
thousands. There will be Kisses for
Johnson to offset the applause. Lick
him quickly. Jeff he can not fight"
references to his race and hundred
more other haunting, heart-piercing
conditions may arise. Can Johnson
weather them and Jeffries, too?
