Johnson. first name Jack, is in a
peach of a hole. He wants to retire,
but the sport crowd won't stand for
any retirements from the black champ.
When Jeff tried to come back he was
roasted for so doing. especially as his
so doing was hardly a success. Now
Johnson, who put the 80 sign on Jeff,
wishes to quit and says he is acting in
good faith when he says he is through
with the pillow punching game. But
the fans who fix pUgilistic public opin-
ion say Johnson is a Qultter that he
never did like to train and is too lazy

OWN at the bottom of a telegraph
sport story which came ticking
- off the wire was a line to the
effect that the st. Louis Browns might
come to FL Paso to do their prelimin-
airy spring training. There is a lot of
meat in that little line-O-type. Once
let a bunch of big league basebaIlists
come to Fl Peso for spring workout
and they would become such splendid
boosters for this little town that the
other league clubs would be finding FL
Paso on the map for the following
season of training. This country offers
ideal conditions for training. IN fact
it would do the players good il they
could come out here and loat during
the hard part of the winter back east.
Colds and rains and wet feet do as
much to send the players back to the
junk pile as their actual playing, yet
many of them spend their leisure sea-
son in the worst of the eastern cities.
With the new club house on the mesa it
would be possible for these players,
all of them auto bugs. to bring their
fancy cars out, speed over Ell Paso's
roads and be as fit as a Strad. fiddle
season, which could be held right
here on the job. That would give the
other club several weeks IN the hole,
for it is necessary for them to acclimaIe
themselves to their southern spring
when they go back for the chilly early
season games.

That Clarence s. Darrow will take
the stand In his own defense be-
fore the day closes to disprove
the charge of jury bribing was
made practically certain during
the morning session of the trial
here today.
A change of plans by attorneys
for the defense was indicated
when Earl Rogers gave out a pri-

called would be Mrs. Darrow, wife
of the defendant, and then the de-
fendant himself. 80
The entire morning session was
taken up in the cross-examination
of Lecompte Davis, former associ-
ate counsel with Darrow In the
Mcnamara defense. District At
torney Fredericks attempted TO
tangle Davis up as to the dates of
the plan to have the McNamaras
plead guilty and the date the brib-
cry was committed. Davis, how
