In all probability Young Fitzsim-
mons will prove equally disappointnS
if Fitz carries out his threat to send
him after the championship. The
youngster may have inherited his
fathers fighting instince and may
have acquired much of the latter's
skill, but he will need more than
that.
1t was the years Of hard work at
the anvil that made a fighter out Of
Fitzsimmons and developed that won
derful punch. No gymnasium athlete
need ever expect to acquire wallop
that will equal the Fitzsimmons jolt
1t takes the toughening process Of
hard physical day after day labor to
make real fighting man of the Fitz-
