prospect than Tunney when he
was fighting in the Marines.
"Tunney became champion"
Webb said. "When I handled him
in 1913 he didn't have half as
much on the ball as Cutter.
Gutter is 35 pounds heavier,
he punches harder with both
hands and he can take punish

thing that's needed"

JACKIE DAVIS SEEN
AS NEW RING STAR
Showing Against Callahan
Boosts Junior WeIter
as a Real Conner.
BY JOHN J. ROMANO.

n 1EW YORK, March g.
nj Jackie Davis may be one
v of the new faces the fans
4 are looking for to put
some life in the fight game.
Davis, a junior welterweight,
spotted weight and experience
to Andy Callahan a few nights
ago and dropped a divided de-
ciSion to the Lawrence IriShman.
In the total point scoring Gala
han was declared the winner
by the slim margin of four
points.
Any one who has seen Callahan in
action will agree that Andy is a nifty
boxer, especially for one who fights
with his right hand and foot forward,
and a pretty good puncher in the
bargain. Andy was good enough to
beat Lou Brouillard two years ago.
He tried to duplicate this feat several
months ago but the former Welter and
middleweight champion carried too
much weight for the willing Irishman.
Davis deserves credit for the great
fight he made against his more ex-
perienced rival Instead of attempt
ing to box Callahan or backing off,
Jackie tore in and banged away in
close with both hands. Andy did not
expect such rough work from the
youngster and tried to punch him
away by slugging with both hands.
He found willing customer in Davis
and was forced to hold on several
times.

sensational success as in the cur

1t all started months ago. when
Senators Borah and Nye were leading

contended that the Johnsonian codes
were strangling little business. There
can be no question but what there
was considerable basis for their argu-
ment
At any rate, their case drew such
marked attention that Mr.. Roosevelt
called them in. He proposed that a
committee be appointed to investigate
their charges and that they serve on
the committee
Borah and Nye were too foxy to get
tied up in a thing like that, but they
did consent to the formation OF a
committee And Nye, at least, CO.
operated to the extent of suggesting
names for the committee. He Is sup
