Anderson the Star.

EE ANDERSON, colored

parts. It will astonish
Georges Carpenter and Gene Tun-

dses himself as the light heavyweight
champion Of the world.
Anderson Is q bird who bears
some physical resemblance to the
late Sam McVea. He gained some
fame back East q few months ago
when the wires told the tale, anguish
ing to Leo p. Flynn, Of his victory
over Kid Norfolk, the watermelon
of Leo's rib.
It seems that Anderson met Nor
folk down in Arizona and butted
open the Baltimore Thunderbolt's
knob in such fashion that much Of
Norfolk's gore trickled down into
his eyes. The Flynn entry had to
desist- On the strength Of that vic
tory, Lee might have some claim
to the colored light heavyweight
championship.
Anderson Is q long way from be-
ing Sucker" He has bested Sam
Langford, and fought lot Of other
good men. He was once In Jack
Dempsey's training camp as a spar
ring partner to the heavyweight
champion. Flynn was trying not
long ago to get Anderson to come
East to meet Norfolk at the Garden
on a card that would have included
Harry Wills, Glenn johnson, Gorilla
Jones and a number of other colored
fighters.
