Chandler Looks Good.

Alfred Chandler. the former star

regarded as one of the logical candi-

"Takey," as he was known at the
Ridge street institution, made the

OS ANGELES, Jan. 6.-To the
victor belongs the hurrahs.
1t was a sight for the gods
to see Luther McCarty, the newly
crowned heavyweight champion of
the world, standing up in his auto
mobile outside Promoter McCarey's
town office and bowling with all the
gravity he could command to the
plaudits of crowd that stood ten
deep around his car.
When it comes to looking grave
or dignified, however. Luther is a
rank failure. He likes the adulation
of the multitude too we'll to be
able to conceal it. His face was
w.eathed in a smile of delight as he
bowed north, east south and west
to the cheering throng.
All this time Billy Mccartney,
the white champions manager. was
inside the Office discussing the pos
sibilities of the future in the
matchmaking line with McCarey.
Here is what Mccartney had to say
when he left the august presence:
Il expect his next match will be
with Bombardier Wells for the
championship of the world We will
give Tom McCarey the preference
If he can secure Wells services.
McCarey has been especially good
to US, and we want to show our
appreciation. If the Wells McCar-
ty match is arranged for July 4,
McCarty will be back here before
very long. He wants to put in the
spring and summer near Los An
geles. and it would suit him nicely
to have the July date with Wells to
look forward to-"
FaVors Match With Wells.
McCarey thinks well of the
Wells McCarty proposition. He did
not appear too enthusiastic about
it, as it is a rule with fight pro-
motors not to become historical
over an attraction while one of the
fighters is still footloose. 1t is very
likely, however, that McCarey will
place himself in communication
with Wells at the earliest oppor-
tunity.
1t would be match that would
be of worldwide interest, Of
course" said McCarey. ION account
of its International significance.
Personally. I would like to see it
come to a head. I recognize that
boxing had its origin in England
and that the English have improved
upon the game and kept it clean
and wholesome. For that reason, in
my opinion, whenever a good man
develops in England he should be
made welcome among us and given
a chance to show how he COM
pares with American fighters.
But In the meantime there is no
reason for the heavyweights to re-
main idle McCarty will be awav
on theatrical tour and it will take
Wells some time to get here. In
the months that intervene between
now and July the other heavies
should fight it out among them
selves. | think that Palzer who
