nary outdoor work for the big battle

CAST for ths lightweight champion
sbsp.
The climate here II the most m
Soyable and the weather conditions
nave been nearly IDEAL since our ar
rival. This place Is about 700 feet
abeve sea level, and the light air
one prsathes At this altitude gives
IN sx~hiiaration and buoyancy which
10 rsany something TO be remsm-
bered.
Moran has developed into an
Gtdent disciple Of lsAak walton. ana
with u poles and lines We have
,fo,led the lakes and whipped the
streams and brooks for miles In
every direction. In pursuit or n
inny tribe we have covered many
miles OF ground, thus furnishing .
combination Of exercise and fun
which naturally assists Moran IN his
physical preparation We have
taken long tramps ana climbs
through ths woods and up the noun
tain sides. covering daily from seven
TO sixteen miles. Moran has gained
in weight. but this II . point aAmed

I the hard grind ana routine Of actual
training.
We have had some ~tntsrsstans aA-
ventures while paoushfns through
/. the brush and woods here. One day
We discovered fresh tracks in the
snow. and. following them up. Moran
, finally caught sight Of . bsar. We
Immediately reversed positions and
had the bear follow W for . chsnSA
Pronting BY our early reading Of
Wild animal and game hunting
stories. we promptly climbed . tree
and his bearshfp Hoped mA3sstcaiiy
sby. never giv1ns " . NOD OF rscog-
milton.
Keeping In the open air a. much
iSAs possible has made Moran feel a.
we'll. n not better. than at any time
IN his pugilistio career He figures
that the one thing necessary In his
contest with Wolgast II stamina, and
he d. roughins II here With Tho end
In view. We will leave on Sunday
