careful handling Wells can be made
into first class heavyweight, for
he Is only 81 years of age and has all
the natural advantages that go to make
up a great fighter. II he is wise. how
ever. he will keep away from the vau-
deville stage, for it has put many
other good boxers out Of the running.
Carl Morris Is Big Enough.
Carl Morris, the. Oklahoma giant.
who meets Jim Flynn at Tulsa, Okla,
the Fourth of July, is big fellow,
but, unlike Wells, he knows very lit
tie about the fine points of boxing He
stands nearly six feet, five inches and
weighs 240 pounds. That is bigger than
Jim Jeffries was when he was in his
prime. Morris has a chest measure
nent of A inches and expands TO 40
inches, which shows that his lungs are
good. His reach is over 50 inches. and
his age certainly favors him. being only
rs. His manager F. B. Ufer. is very
wealthy man OF Oklahoma and took him
In charge because he likes the sport
There have been many stories to the
effect that Morris was an awful lump
of cheese" and would never make
showing, but it must be remembered
that Jim Jeffries was considered the
softest kind of a mark for Bob Fitz-
simmons and Jim Corbett before he
whipped the two of them Therefore 1t
is only fair to wait and give Morris a
chance, and If he can make good, SO
much the better. for we need a few
good heavyweights, and If he fails.

"HE search of boxing promoters
4 for a white mans hope" the
past year has not been very sue
cessful and unless some higher grade
material is discovered it will be SONS
time before the scalp of Jack Johnson
is taken Several hopes" have been
sprung of late. but perhaps the best
of the entire list is Bombardier Wells,
the British heavyweight champion, and
at the present time he is hardly heavy
enough to cope with Mistah Jack.
Some writer's have described Wells
as being big and cluhsy, with only a
punch to back him up. but the reverse
is the case. saw Wells in action
against Dan (Porky) Flynn at the
Olympia in London recently and was
very agreeably surprised at his show

clever with both hands. but with a

Then again. Wells has the height,
being fully six feet, four inches, and
a reach greater than Jack johnson has
He is lacking in one very important es-
sential in fighting; that is a weak
stomach and also weight for his build
Wells could easily carry 210 pounds
and not even show it, but he is weigh
ing only about 1S5 pounds. and is al
together too thin about the waist.
With more flesh about the waist line
he would be able to stand more pun

would be everything to him.

yet to deliver the goods Still, many
believe that Doom is hurting the new

Jimmy EsmOnd Live Wire.
Clark Griffith. who has been criti-
cized for deals he has made, seems to
have secured a live wire in Jimmy Es-
mond, who last season played with the
Jersey City team OF the Eastern league
Esmond played phenomenal ball around
the keystone for the Shelters and also
walloped the ball good and hard Gene
Mccain, now owner of the Bridgeport
Connecticut League team who man
aged Jersey City when Esmond was
unearthed, says that Griffith has a
grand ball player in this youngster.
Although the New York Yankees
pitching staff was considered one of
the best in the country last season,
scout Arthur Irwin added strength
when he dug up Ray Caldwell from the
Ohio & Pennsylvania league and Ray
Fisher from the Connecticut circuit.
These two youngsters are expected
to develop into Fingers of the Ford
class. Caldwell has a big variety of
staff and is one Of the coolest recruits
that ever donned a uniform in big
league ball yards. Fisher has a great
spitball and fast one that has a wick
ed jump to it very much like the one
that made Walter Johnson, of the Sen
ators, famous.
Is Equal of Evers.
Although Earl Gardner was with the
Yankees last season, he did not play
regularly and really comes under the
recruit list Right now I believe he Is
every bit as great a second baseman
as Evers, Lajoie or Collins. He is not
as flashy as this trio, but he covers as
much ground
Gardner has turned out TO be a swell
hitter. too. He has perfect form at the
plate and, while not long hitter. he
is the best and surest man Hal Chase
has in the pinch.
Cleveland picked up "a peachy In
fielder in Olson. who is playing i'm
mense ball at shortstop for the Maps.
He can cover any amount Of ground
and can go after balls hit to his right
as well as to his portside. And he is
