Milwaukee outfielder for some time

recent suspension, caused the Wash

seeking to waive one or two
athletes acceptable to the Milwaukee
club.
The trouble between Matthews
and Borchert started a week age

champion Of the world. Strange
as it may seem i drink an aw-
full lot Of water when am re-
ducing for a contest, in some
cases taking off as much as
fifteen pounds in a little more
than q week. AS matter of
fact, drinking plenty of water
is part of my system Of reduc-
ing"
According to Johnny Dundee's
idea it ought to be easy for
anybody to reduce his weight in
these days of so-called prohi-
bition. "All you've got to do is
to drink water-aHd try and
get something else," says John
ny. The combination sounds
like a workout.

MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, May 80.
When / meet Tom Gibbons in
the big bowl here tomorrow after
noon l expect to- prove to my
United States friends that l am
still fit to be called the opponent
worthy of a worlds champion
and hope fervently that I shall dc
as well against the st. Paul boxer
as Dempsey did-win a decision
There has been some criticism of
my methods in preparing for this
match, hut after all it Is I who
must make this fight and not those
who criticize me. have my own
methods Of training and / like to
adhere to them at all times.
/ trained in secret for two rea.
sons. One of these is that when a
boxer does his training in view of
the public 1t is almost a necessity
that he charge admission to his
quarters. If we did that It would
make us feel that we owed 1t to
the fans to see me box. Too much
boxing for me at this time would
be dangerous. had just met and
defeated Arthur Townley at Vienna
when I. came here. had trained
hard for that bout and continued
training on board the ship. AS a
consequence was very near the
peak of condition. A little overdo.
ing would make me unfit to meet
Gibbons.
Another. reason is that have
planned and practiceds assiduously
on a new punch. We know that
Gibbons is expert as a boxer, par.
ticularly in the use, of the left hand.
Some method of defense and at.
tack to meet this was necessary.
This was devised and practiced.
I respect Gibbons as a great
fighter and shall be well satisfied
II win on points. He will be q
fine opponent. II hope I shall win.
More I cannot says
