] ing in a recent interview that fight
ers are born. not made. You don't
have to learn how to Eight It's a
natural talent It's with you, Just
like red hair or a pug nose" Jack
is said TO have remarked.
Because there is a tendency among
the present generation Of boxers to
believe like Dempsey is said to be-
Z lieve. is the reason that James J.

Greb, O'Dowd, who know little about
the ustic game as compared with the
boxers OF generation ago and whose
conuuct IN the ring eZemplifies the
lack Of brains enveloped in all Of
mat class OF boxers who are born
ond not made
1t IS true that n successful boxer
must be born with fighting germs
IN his blood II Is equally true
that he must be brought in con-
tact with the art of boxing II
learn inst the same as he must
be brought in contact with read
ing before he can read or arith-
metic before he can add.
Rush's Opinion.
TO be back OF a winner 7 would
rather be in the corner Of a boy who
is absolutely unafraid and had never
seen glove than TO be with a lad
who has had the finest training I'm
the world and has yellow sDlotches
decorating his spine" said J. Court
ney Rush. trainer of Kid Mccoy and
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, in discuss
ing the relative value of fighting
heart and the acquisition Of science IN
the same. Yet 1t should be remem-
oered that lack Of fear and q liking
for the game doesn't generate know1-
edge-it only causes the possessor to
seek practice where he can learn. D..
"The difference between the
horn fighter and the boy with n
lamb like mature Is just thiss he
cause the Eirly hoy does not love
the game he will not observe Il.
He does not hold &c because to
TO him q Is not valuable. The lad
with fighting heart treasures
every move he sees another man
make in boxing because he In
stinctiveIy holds TO that which he
likes.n
I have seen boxers who told me
that they never did learn the game
and had no teaching. who did toler-
ably good work in the ring but I'M
consciously they did study and ac-
qulre the art They were not born
lighters as accomplished boxers 20
There is no such a thing. The man
who loves boxing rs born with n
fighting spirit and talent along that
line. He learns quicker than others
because he is more interested and is
probably gifted with more strength
TO acquire.
