Initiation Fee Suspended
To Swell Membership Roll

Emil Schock is touting Sailor
Moran to win from Joe Bonds
when the heavies meet at the T.
A. G. smoker Tuesday night. Emil

Bonds will only weigh about 16S,

interest as that between Eddie
Marine and Paul Steele. Bonds

fights and Moran Is a dark horse.

Marine. Both are working like
trojans and are in excellent shape.
They will start ON a 10-round

Those who have seen both work

Attell isn't boxing, skipping
rope and going through the regu-
lar training camp routine. He Is
living close to nature. Plenty of
sleep, lots of hard work, plain
food, and sleeping in the open
that's the program.
Abe is on the ranch of Billy
Nolan, the man who made Bait
ling Nelson a worlds champion.
Billy is directing him. In the fol-
lowing story Attell tells of his
back to nature life.''
(BY ABE ATTELL)
Before leaving San Francisco
Nolan told me that 1 would have
no use for jewelry, boiled shirts,
stiff collars, pointed toed or pat
ent leather shoes. We purchased
two suits of clothes (overalls and
jumper) price $3.50, two pairs
heavy shoes with spikes, a couple
of wide brimmed hats and a few
other necessaries, a pretty cheap
layout compared with what 1 have
been paying for my wardrobe
heretofore.
We arrived at the ranch about
8 o'clock; changed my city clothes
put ON my new regalia-the over
alls, spiked shoes and soft shirt
and hat. / felt queer for a time,
but soon got used to 1t.
Nolan mentioned that, as sup
per would not be ready until six,
we would have few hours time
and would take a walk. Accom-
panied by two dogs we started on
our tramp.
We arrived at the house In time
to wash. 1t was just 6 o'clock.

ate very hearty meal of boiled
meat, fresh vegetables, beans,
etc., finishing up with a couple of
glasses of milk.
This is my fifth day and I have
not tasted any tea or coffee, or
pastry in any form. It's kind of
hard to get used to the coarse
grub. You know what you do eat
is fresh. It's all raised on the farm
plenty of game, besides and any
amount of fish right ON Nolan's
200-acre tract.
After supper l chatted with the
men for an hour or so. 1t was just
about getting dark, when they
made for the bunk house.
Billy's bed and mine were on
the front porch out in the open
air.
Nolan started to undress. told
him that I could not sleep as early
as this, he replied, "shit yourself"
We all get up at five, only one
table, six, twelve and six.
Seating myself in the sitting
room, read until 10 O'Clock.
Coming outside again I heard
Nolan snoring like a buzz saw, so
l retired. My first night in the
open air was great, never remem-
Der making a turn in the bed.
II seemed as though / hadn't
half enough sleep when 1t was 5

times, I was dead to the world.
Waking up / found myself chilled
to the bone. He pulled the clothes
off me and / dressed.
