Jim Jeffries Celebrates 72d Birthday; Admits Joe Louis Is a Good Fighter
BURBANK, Cal, April 15 (U.P). Jim Jeffries, still a giant of a man, celebrated his 72d birthday today by - reminiscing about old time fighters-who were in the ring when he. was world's heavyweight champlon. Champion Joe Louis is a “good fighter,” Jeffries admitted, but he thought Gentleman “Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons or John L. Sullivan would.give Louis a good tussle and might even win. But ‘outside of Louis, the old battler didn't think too highly of the present crop of fighters. They don’t train enough or do enough roadwork. Big Jim weighs 230 pounds, about 30 pounds more than when he won the heavyweight title from Fitzsimmons -in 1899. Until his retirement in 1904, he met all comers successfully.
When he had a tooth: pulled recently, Jeffries was reminded of his fight with Sailor Tom Sharkey. That tooth was cracked by Sharkey
but it seemed to knit together and |
service until it was his general
gdve him yanked to improve héalth. “I'm far from well, but I recovered from a stroke I suffered 15 months ago so I can get around,” the 6-foot, 2-inch Jeffries said.
“I smoke about eight cigars a day. They probably don’t do me any good, but I get lonesome at times and puffing a cigar is a good way to pass the time.” About 200 friends,dropped In on him Sunday for an early birthday celebration. Among his visitors was former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey. Most of his days, though, he spends quietly, When he retired in
1804, he bought A° 146-acre ranch, but. most of it since has been subivi so that only 13 acres are eft. “I raise a little hell on it and that's about all,” Jeffries said. “A lot I sold recently brought.almost as much as what I originally paid for the ranch.” In the * Jeffries barn, amateur fights gre-held each Thursday inght, but the ex-champion has attended only ‘half a dozen of them during the last year.
