Jim made an athletic tour of Finland after the games at Stock: holm. “At Bertin they're going to have a Much stronger team than they had thie time, and they're going to win a@ lot of events,” ho went on, The country ‘# crazy over athletics. The Finns gave their victors a great reception. Why, they got up a purse and bought a farm 4nd presented it to Hannes Kolehmain- en's mother. They didn’t let a cent go through his hands, because he's an am- ateur, but they gave the farm to his Mother because she had given Finland @ great chaimpion. “The Finns are poor. They're almost all farmers, 1 went out to Nickiander's farm, It wasn't like an American farm, | very much. In the townn they don't have any swell cafes ike ours.

Personally, 1 don't see why it should. It's just an ordinary boxing match be- tween two negroes, neither of whom has ever shown any signs of being « Breat ten-round fighter. Probably Jean- ette and Johnson will just box along through the ten rounds and finish in 00d shape. If Johnson ts in his old form he'll have the best of it and come fm showing his golden smile, tangling Joe's arms, clinching and standing back on the defensive, taking no chances and collecting a cinch $2,000 for hie exhibition, If dissipation really has robbed Johnson of his vitality he'll dust tall harder and take still fewer chances, and Jeanette, by harder work, will have the best of it.
