TUESDAY BIG DAY
I!! FISTIC ARENA
Bud Anderson Meets Mandot
and "Gunboat" Smith Will
Try Cut Jess Willard.
LIGHTWEIGHT THRONE NEAR
Elimination of "Brunette" Jack
Johnson From Pugilistic World
Places Son Francisco Encoun
ter In Premier Limelight.
BT JAMES H. CASSELL.
Two elimination flstlo bouts, affect
ing the ring's most popular divisions
lightweight and heavyweight will be
staged In California Tuesday night. At
Vernon Bud Andermm, the Vancouver,
Wash. 133-pdunder who has meteorea
Ms war to the first division, will try
conclusions with Joe Mandot. of New
Orleans. At San Francisco "Gunner
Eddie Smith will pit his ISO Pounds
plus "occipital" punch, against im
pound Jess Willard.
The winner of the Anderson-Mandot
melee will be within two lights, or pos
sibly three if circumstances conspire
against him. of the lightweight thrope.
The victor in the Smith-Willarf fracas
will be only one point removed from
the heavyweight championship, now
that fate In the pulse of a Federal Jury
has removed Brunette Jack Johnson
from active ring service.
While the elimination of Johnson
hoists the San Francisco engagement
Into premier position in the eyes of the
fltrht world, yet Northwestern Interest
centers In the lightweight encounter a
few miles farther down towards the
Mexican border and the scene of other
hostilities.
Anderson In Favorite.
Critics all over the country, from
New York to San Francisco, are pick
ing Anderson to beat Mandot "Walter
C Kelly, of the Cleveland Leader,
thinks that "our Bud" will be the neit
champion and. as one wit remarks:
"He ou-rht to know. He's back In Cleve
land and has never seen Anderson.
But the manner in which Bud has per
formed all rinsr duties to date, with due
deference to that mighty two-handed
wallop has attracted most favorable
noticeand Bud is certain to enter the
ring on even betting terms with Man
dot or perhaps a slight favorite.
Freddie Anderson. Bud's brother,
writes from Jack Poyle's training camp
at Vernon that his sparring mate Is
ure to win In le rounds. Statements
from the principal and his manager are
to ttie same effect, while Trainer Mo
han who formerly handled Mandot.
says that Bud is a "pipe." The Mandot
camp is Just as confident. Joe declar
ing that he would rather beat Anderson
than min the title.
From this angle, considering1 well
the skill and experience of Mandot
against the shade less skill and expe
rience but sturdier punch of Anderson.
It appears as though Freddie's prog
nostication is to be the correct answer
of the problem of Bud vs. Joe In the
advanced class of flsdes.
Bad's Fnfare I nwrtal.
Just what the future has In store
for Bud Is uncertain. There is talk
of a Rivers-Ritchie championship fight
at San Francisco on Jul7 4. If this Is
so Los Angeles critics are Inclined to
think that McCarey's July 4 card will
be Anderson vs. Leach Cross or Tommy
Murphy, providing that Bud beats
Mandot. Then there Is the chance
that Wolgast will secure the date. If
Rivers, Is pledged to box for McCarey
on July 4. as la asserted by more than
one writer of the southland, then It's a
certainty that the winner of the Man-cot-Amlerson
bout will tackle the Mex
ican, the winner to meet Willie Ritchie.
If he is then champion, about Labor
day.
No matter what the Intricacies of the
situation. Anderson Is assured of a big
fight, leading up towards the top. If he
does what his friends and admirers
expect him to do Tuesday night
knock out Joe Mandot.
To revert to the heavyweight mill.
The only thing that gives SmltR a
chance against the jrisrantlc Willard 'a
the possession of a knockout punch,
one which is no respecter of slse. Once
that "occipital" lands, whether It be
at the base of the head or on the Jaw,
the announcer will be crying ere, long:
What May Be Beard.
"This bout is for the heavyweight
championship of the world. Gentlemen,
permit me to IntrodiM-e to you "Gun
boat" Smith; Luther McCarty."
Physically, barring the ability to
land his gloved fist with more telling
effect. Smith has only one superiority
over Willard. The Gunner has a reach
of St Inches, phenomenal fcr a height
of six feet one inch, against 83 1-3
Inches for Willard. who towers six feet
six Inches In the air.
On Saturday McCarty, who. next to
Ritchie, is one of the best evaders In
the business, tackles Arthur Pelkey at
Calgary. McCarncy. McCarty's man
ager, feels that he did right In steer
ing bis prote-re attatnst Pelkey, an
easy mark, rather than against Wll
laid or Smith. He wants the two to
settle their little elimination problem,
giving "Lute" a chance to meet the
winner in a real championship battle.

Jim Corbett thinks that the time Is

heavyweight champion. He does not

Smith. Jim was enthusiastic over
McCarty for a time, Dut says inai mo
big fellow Is a disappointment, looking
every Inch a champion, but failing to

that any boxer who can dodge Smith s
wild swings for a few rounds will beat
the "Gunner" easily. Reading between

might gather that Corbett Hkes W il

Is just beginning the splendid growth that other
Coast cities have experienced during the past six
years.
There are no dull times, no vacant houses, no
waiting for employment in Astoria.
Most people buy property after the boom is well
. on; the wise investor purchases while others are hesi
tating and takes the full profits as a result of his
foresight.
Now is the time to invest in Astoria.
Three hundred organized business men are back
of the general upbuilding of Astoria.
You, Mr. Man, who have passed up the good things
of the past now is your chance and Taylor's Astoria
your opportunity.
It doesn't take much money to become directly
. interested in the building of the great commercial
shipping center at the mouth of the river.
