AXDERSOX IS AFTER TITLE
Vancouver Lightweight WllPChal
lenge Ritchie.
Ten thousand dollars, a golden bait
not to be xUaregarded even in these
days of boxing frenzied finance, is the
lure backers' of Bud Anderson, of Van
couver, Wash, premier lightweight of
the Northwest, hold out to Willie
Ritchie, world's champion.
Jack King declares that the Portland,
Vancouver and Medford backers of
Anderson will deposit $10,000 as a
side bet for a Ritchie-Anderson cham
pionship bout the day that Ritchie ac
cepts the challenge to meet the North
westerner at 131 pounds ringside.
King says he will personally put up
$2000 of this money, that Vancouver
business men will add 12500 to It and
that Court Hall, the Medford theatrical
man who sent the $1000 to San Fran
cisco to back Anderson for a fight, will,
with a few enthustastlo friends of the
boxer, augment this sum to $10,000.
So confident are the Anderson follow
ers that Ritchie will not overlook the
110,000 side bet that they have prac
tically completed arrangements where
by King, known throughout the coun
try as a conditioner of athletes, will
train Anderson for his title fray.
"Bud Anderson is the coming light
weight champion of the wordl." enthu-
, siestically predicted King last night.
' "He will ie recognized within a year
as one of the greatest champions in the
history of the ring. Today he is as
good as Joe Cans in his prime, and. in
stead ot going after the smaller fry, we
are determined to send him against the
l.e.-'t men in tre business right away.
"Anderson is -3 years o':d. is a per
fect specimen of physical manhood, has
n tad rablts. and has disposed of all
opponents without any trouble what.
I'ter. He has the experience and the
a'ility. Tie aooner he goes against
li e topnotchers the sooner will he be
hailed tre champion of the world."
Bud Anderson has been fighting in
the Northwest for two and one-balf
years, engaging In approximately 30
fights. During the past two years he
has not lost a fight, scoring 21 knock
outs. He has knocked out such men as
George Memsic Abe Label, "Australia"
Kelly. "Rough House" Burns and
Frankie Edwards. He is a legitimate
lightweight, with the strength of a
welterweight, and is rated the best
lightweight the Northwest has ever
produced.
The Anderson people hope to secure
a match with Ritchie in February. If
Ritchie will not accept the challenge,
Wolgast. Rivers, Britton or McFarland
are mentioned as opponents. The only
stipulation is that the boxing weight
must be 133 pounds ringside.
Anderson is In Medford, the scene of
