Ore., Juno .1. Jim my Hrltt, tho California boxer, who gave Battling Nelson the tight of his llfo several years ngo ami who nt ouo 1 1 mo wns considered ono of tho most scientific boxers In tho ring, Is today of the opinion thnt Hud Anderson Is the legitimate lightweight contender, nnd Is heir apparent to the throne now occupied by Willie Hltchle. "Pin your faith In Hud Anderson," said Hrltt. "He's the kind of n man to win the lightweight championship from Willie Ritchie It tho title Is to change hands In the near future" Hrltt believes thnt Joe Rivers has too many natural handicaps to de feat tho champion unless he shows remarkable speed. Including a short er reach, lack of height and ton mi ll go. "If I were handling Anderson," continued Drttt, "I would be right at tho ringsldo July 4 to chnllengo the winner of the Mvcrs-nitchle fight In stead of taking n chance with a man like Cross, If Hud whips Cross tie gets little credit for It and If he is defeated he Is through. Cross Is us dangerous as any man In the ring today." ARTHUR PELKY, WHOSE BLOW KILLED LUTHER M'CARTY, AND HIS VICTIM NO MOVE TO REMOVE SCHALL TO SAN FRANCISCO PORTLAND. Ore.. June 3. Ac cording to United Slates Marshal Scott today no move looking toward the removal of George C. Schnll to San Francisco will be made for n day or two. Schall wns arrested here yesterday on n federal indictment charging him with having murdered his wife nnd three sons nt the Pre sidio, San Francisco. There is no court action, it wns stated, that can interfere with the re moval of Schall, as he has admitted his identity and that was the only matter to be ostnbli.-hed in Portland. ville stage had made him slow, may be due for a surprise. ' Nolnn snid that he, Graney nnd Levy, River's ma linger, would get to gether tomorrow nnd thresh the whole matter out and n definite statement would then be given the press. The party included Mrs. Nolan, wife of "chnmpiou manager of champions," who joined her husband I nt Portland two weeks ngo. Despite tho legal difficulties fol lowing the death of Luther McCarty In the ring at Calgary, Arthur Pelky, the man who beat him, will probably be sought by many boxing promoters for matches In tho t'nlted States. Un der the training of Tommy Hums, Pelky has. It Is bolloved, developed Into a good fighter. Ills last appear ance In Now York a few months ngo showed him to bo a fourth rater. Hut he made such a good xhowlug nguliwt McCarty In tho few veconds they boxed thnt Hums must have douo wonders with him. CLOSE CONTEST IN LOS ANGELES LOS ANHKLIOH.
