At the same time the chances are thai
1LCCaLly would have beaten the
Brltlsher Just as quickly and the one
mistake ne made, or rather his man
| ager, Billy Mccartney, was in not ia k
/ grabbed it.
Another hope who appears to be
I coming back after a defeat at the
/ hands Of Gunboat Smith is George R,-
/ Gel. the BOer champion, who seems To
/ De getting better with each fight and
/ VINO appears to have considerable
class he VIII have to run the gaunt-
! let, however, before he can hone to
grab off the title
AT present there are more promising
heavyweight fighters than we have
Tor years and the indications are that
Jack johnson would not have the easy
uTne running through the list now
I that he had previously. And besides
the big negro champion is getting to
the same point Jim Jeffries was in
when he lost to Johnson through Iacl,
OF condition Johnson has been living
q NE OF ease for some time now with
out training. and II he should fight
again he viii find il a very differeor
proposition than when he met Jeffries
and II the negro should want a crack
al McCarty the latter is only too will
ing to accommodate him. Things have
surely changed in the past 10 months
wisconsin has another real fighting
- III ---E pC4SO4l OF AldLLE McAlue.
OF Racine, whose real name is Matthew
Faulson, and who has been creating
all kinds Of dismay for the feather
Welgnts about the middle west: in fact
ne has sent chills into more than one
Ilghter who has esSayed to face him Ct
late.
Although only IS years Of age the
boy has had IS battles and most OF
MS victories have been by the knock
out route Of the last Is contests he
had II were knOckOuts. which shows
what kind OF a haymaker he carries
Not only does he carry a sleep pro-
ducer in his right hand. but he can also
give the sleep potion with his left just
as we'll; IN fact. he hits like a good
sized welterweight.
McCue is just emerging from high
school ana IS above the average fighter |
IN intelligence be is not bothered /
with the big head" and has the ut
most confidence in his manager. !
johnny McCue, who has taught the bow 1
an al ne knows IN the boxing line and |
mas also trained him for all his bat [
ties. Johnny is himself an old-time I
wrestler and boxer and knows the
game as well as most of the Wiseacrss
OF today. Matty is very reserved and 4
mas a soft voice, more like a clerk in
a dry goods store than a fighter. He I
Is not boastful In the least and would /
rather talk on any subject than dis
cuss fighting.
He is almost a counterpart Of Al
WolSast in action and the boy looks /
very much like the famous Michigan |
wildcat He strips well and is well de-
yeloped about the upper body and arms. /
he also mas sturdy pair Of legs 10 Z
stand on and his cover up is excel
-enr. but ne does not keep in his cage
as many fighters do. except when ne
wants to protect himself from attack
He hits freely with both hands and
from any position, with either right OF
left. He seems to have the knack Of /
llttlng down 10 perfection. the same as
Kid Mccoy had, and once he puts over !
me Of those swings to the jaw It is I
III over. but the counting. He has not I
)een meeting lemons all the time, /
either, but such boys as George Ste
ems. Johnny KlOfta. Freddy Andrews /
daddy Kenar. George Horton and Joe |
homeland, who know the game and 1
ave all taken the count in short or
Ter. Now Matty wants TO eef a crack
