CHICKEN CHASING IMPORTANT PART
OF JACK JOHNS0NS TRAINING WORK
Pusilist' $ Wife Invents
Scheme TO Help Cham
pion Wind.
CATCHES TWELVE "CHICKS"
IN THIRTY MINUTES

Mrs. Jack johnson is always trying
to invent schemes to help her pugilist
train for his fights. One of her latest
is:
She had bought a dozen French
chickens-French chickens are long
legged and put a Texas steer to shame
for wildness and speed. She turned
them loose in an enclosure and offered
10 cook every bird that Jack caught.
Jack came home from a ten-mile
run and went after those chickens,
In thirty minutes he had "cooped" the
last bird.
Johnson has Cancelled all social en-
gagements until he has attended to
Bombadier Wells October 2. He will be
In good shape then and will have his
weight down to 210 pounds.
All that talk of Johnson having an
aldermanic stomach and rolls of fat
is bunk now. Jack is crafty and sew
eral weeks before he started active
training he was secretly doing some
work to reduce his weight.
In the ring Johnson doesn't look his
former self. An absence Of fourteen
months from real work has slowed him
up naturally and caused him to lose
his eye. At that he is still WONDER
fully fast and a clever infghter.
