Packie iUcFnrland is another of tho fighters who believes that too much sparring practice ma3r lessen a man's chances for vic.toiw when he comes to a real fight, and therefore, while ho is training train-ing for his bout with Jimmy Britt. to be held April 11, ho is not" giving up more than a fair amount of his time to this branch of exorcise. Tennis finds a good deal of favor with tho Chicago lighter, as he thinks it tends to produce speed and quick footwork, and he hns also taken up roller skating skat-ing to harden tho muscles of his legs. Not content with these amusements. Packie has organized a baseball nine at his training camp and they have taken on games with the teams "around Colma. With McFnrland, Yroung Kelch-oll Kelch-oll and Abe Attell all on the batting-list, batting-list, the decisions rendered against that team .arc few and far between. |
