! About the only thing Of interest
to Ace Hudkins now is a crack at
the w~elterweight title. And with
his second victory over Sergt. Sam
my Baker in the record books, it
looks as though the Nebraska Wild
cats chance is here at last.
1t wasn't so long ago that the
Aces ambition was to be king of
the l~ightweights. But the passage
Of time also brought weight to the
Nebraskan, and now he is in the
class ruled over by Joe Dundee.
On the Pacific coast Dundee
walked out on the Wildcat last
November because all the dough
scheduled for the champ wasn't
ready when fight time came.
Ever since that night last Novem-
Der. Ace has been aching to let
Joe feel the power of his maulies.
Hudkins is now "a, still very
young, but already considering re-
tirement from the ring after his
crack at the weller crown.
The Ace isn't one Of these rug
ged boys who can stand a long and
ferocious career in the ring. Not
being a boxer, he depends entirely
on his smash-bang style to bring re-
suits. He is satisfied to take them
all over the face if he gets the 9TH
er fellow to mix.

through the cheering throng 20 his
dressing room on the shoulders Of
his admirers.
ferris, idol Of the East side for
years, wept IN his corner after re-
covering consciousness from the blow
that shattered his present aspira-
tions for lightweight honors. The
tickle fight fans booed him as he
slipped from the arena and made his
way past the patrons.
This was McLarnin's first appear
ance in a New York ring, and he
made a big hit with the fans, many
Of whom doubted reports Of his dan
gerous punching attack which had
preceded him here.
McLarnin's triumph over ferris
brought the Californian much pres
tige in the lightweight ranks and
clearly established him as the lead
ing rival for Mandell. Previously,
McLarnin had knocked out Louis
KID kaplan, Jackie Fields and
Joey Sanger.
He was on the short end of the
betting throughout the week with
ferris ruling the favorite at g To Is.
However, when the boxers entered

ceded to 8 to 5.
