Johnny Dundee believes in omens.
And the Scotch Wop, in a letter
TO a friend relates OF an augury
which, he claims. presages a deci-
sive victory over Benny Leonard
when the two meet for the light
weight championship at New Ha-
ven on the 10th. He is what John
ny has TO say about the pOrtent
which forecasts such good things
Tor him on the 10th:
The shadow of young Corbett
dances on the wall OF my gym while

to challenge for the lightweight I'll
tie in Connecticut. You remember
what he did TO Terry McGovern. I'll
do the same TO Leonard"
Fighters. as a rule, are a super
stitious lot And it Is surprising
how many times their weird prog
nostication of victory or defeat
have come to pass.
Jeffries Was SuperstitiOus.
For instance James J. Jeffries
when he wrested the title from Rob
ert Fitzsimmons at Coney Island went
into quarters at Allenhurst, n. j.
Big JEFF occupied the same cottage
which sheltered Jim Corbett when
he prepared for his successful en-
sagement with John L. Sullivan at
New Orleans. JEFF regarded the fact
as a lucky omen and so il proved 10
be when Freckled Bob lost his ii
tie TO the youthful Californian after
II vicious rounds OF lighting. After
that Jeffries insisted on training in
the same cottage for his eastern
engagements with Sharkey and Cor

Dundee's relationship with the all
COnquering omen isn't quite as init
mate as was that OF Jefirios Dun
