THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY. JULY 2. 1912.
Flynn Lets Up
Challenger Tells
By Ed W. Smith.
(The Georgian's fight expert, who
has been selected to referee the
Johnson - Flynn battle.)
LAS VEGAS, N. M.. July 2.
“This will be the last box
ing I will do until the after
noon of July 4. and I want every
body to know that I am ready for
this battle and in better shape than
ever before. Further, I'm going to
win, for I feel It in my bones, but
if I should be unfortunate enough
■ to be beaten you can bet I will be
tearing in and not going away
when it happens."
With these words addressed to
the tnob of at least 2,000 persons at
Montezuma yesterday afternoon,
Jim -Flynn closed his boxing work
and. practically his entire training
for the Johnson battle of Thurs
day afternoon. . The applause was
deafening at the close.
There were so many people at
Flynn's beautiful place that they
were walking on each others' heeis.
At least 60 per cent of the throng
made up of women.
Referee to Meet Fighters.
The final formality in the Flynn-
Johnson match will take place to
night when the referee will meet
both principals and discuss the
rules with them. When this little
powwow has been gone through
with, there will not be anything
left for the men to do but get into
the ring and start the big battle.
There will not be' the slightest
hitch over my interpretation of the
Queensberry rode as far as is ap
parent on the surface. It is barely
possible that the ever technical
champion may find some fault
somewhere and demand that he
have his way on this point or that
one, but this is a remote possibili
ty.
The fighters have to do the fight
ing and they will do the way they
agree in advance.
But of this you may be sure: The
men will protect themselves at all
times, going into or going out of
clinches, and will not be consid
ered clinched until both fighters are
unable to hit with either arm.
Then they will break upon com
mand. but always stepping back on
guard and prepared to protect
themselves.
Inasmuch as both of the men
know pretty well how to fight, there
will be no special instructions nec
essary on either side. There will,
however, be a strong warning
about holding and hitting, heeling,

2,000 Persons He Will Win
gouging, elbowing and a foul use
of the knee —all of which will be
considered foul.
The man scoring a knockdown
will be expected to retire, to a far
side of the ring and give his fallen
opponent plenty of opportunity to
arise before stepping in again.
Lots of Police Protection.
Captain Fred, Fornoff of the state
mounted police this afternoon col
laborated with Captain Williams of
the Santa Fe secret service and the
local police officials regarding the
policing of the arena Thursday aft
ernoon and a conclusion was quick
ly reached. The sheriff of San Mi
guel county also will be asked to
take part, although he. was not
present this afternoon. In all there
will be 100 regular officers of the
law inside and on the outside of the
arena during the progress of the
contest.
Fornoff’s regular men will num
ber but twenty, but they are among
the best in the state and will be
stationed immediately around the
ring in order that the fighters and
the referee may have the best of
protection.
There will be a. stalwart state of
ficer In each corner of the ring and
the remainder will be stationed
in boxing seats immediately around
the ring.
Captain Fornoff, at my request,
issued an order that no firearms of
any kind be carried into the arena
and later he broadened this order
to include any and all kinds of fire
works and noise-making machines
that may be dangerous, or likely to
incite trouble.
The fighters have tapered off
pretty well in their actual training
for the contest. There won’t be
much more doing, although both
men will probably box a little for
the moving picture men.
Japk Johnson had heard so much
about the Justly celebrated "Scenic
Road” out to the west of the city
that he decided to take a little par
ty out over it yesterday afternoon.
He went eighteen miles up into

Johnson said he enjoyed it. but
thought more than once of his for
feit to appear in the ring at 2
o'clock Thursday afternoon.
Tommy Burns Is Coming.
Tommy Burns, former champion
of the world, will be here within 24
hours. It was announced last night
that Burns would be in charge of
the Flynn corner during the scrap.
Burns probably will be the only
ex-champion on the ground, now
that Jim Corbett has announced
definitely that he can not be here.
Johnson Trainer Sees Flynn.
That Flynn is in great shape is
absolutely certain now. Only a
glance is necessary to show this.
Last night Tom Flanagan, of
Toronto, in charge of the affairs at
Jack Johnson's camp, got his first
peek at the challenger. Flynn came
into town to visit a little and in the
club headquarters came face to face
with Flanagan. Jim was a regu
lar Willle-off-the-yacht, being clad
in white duck trousers, white can
vas shoes and a Norfolk jacket of
blue.
Flanagan looked at him in
amazement and then congratulated
him on his good condition. They
kidded a little and finally Tom
said:
"I nope it is a fine day Thurs
day."
“It will be fine, and you'll never
forget it, either,” laughed Flynn,
as he walked away. "Just remem
ber my prediction.”
After Flynn had left, Flanagan
again expressed astonishment at
the fireman's appearance.
"Naturally I didn't believe all of
the stories about his having taken
on all that weight and looking so
big and healthy,” he said, “but now
I have seen for myself and know
that the truth has been told. Why,
he boxed Al Williams for me in
Toronto last September, and I'll
swear he didn't weigh 175 pounds
then. I never saw such a change
in a man In my life.”

JORDAN QUITE SICK:
IS STILL IN ATLANTA
Otto Jordan, who was taken sick Fri
day, is still confined to his bed at the
home of Mrs. Jordan's mother in Atlan
ta, and It may be some time before the
Chattanooga second baseman gets back
in the game. At the present time the
physician in charge is puzzled to diag
nose the symptoms. Typhoid fever is
somewhat feared, but no conclusive
symptoms have as yet appeared.
In the meantime Billy Smith is hav
ing a fit. for he needs his field captain
and second baseman, and “needs him
bad." He telephones a couple of times
a day and has Otto and himself worked
into a state of fidgets over the situa
tion.
Sid Burns Is a Pipe
For Gibbons: Fight
Short But Exciting
NEW YORK, July 2. -Mike Gibbons, 01
St. Paul, knocked out Sid Burns, the
welterweight champion of England, in the
fifth round of a scheduled ten-round bout
at Madison Square garden last night. The
knock-out came eight seconds before the
bell ended the round and Burns was un
able to face his opponent for the next
round.
Gibbons made play of his opponent from
the start with left jabs and right upper
cuts. The constant jabbing drew blood
from the Englishman’s nose in the first
round.
Gibbons knocked Burns down for a
count of two in the third round with a
right hook to the. jaw and In the next re
peated for a count of nine. When Burns
arose Gibbons sent in a left hook to the
jaw, sending his man down completely
out. At the count of eight the bell rang.
Burns’ seconds worked over him desper
ately, but he was unable to recover in the
Intermission.
