CHAMPION WILLIE

Hilly Nolnn, manager of Light

Ititchio, passed through Medford yes

tive of tho Mnil Tribune in regard to
to Hud Anderson meeting Hitrhio on
the Fourth of July in case Kivcrs

terms regarding tho weight nml rvf
oreo, snid : "I don't propose to cross
ntiy bridges until I come to thcin, but
Anderson hnsn't one chance in n hun
dred to get Hitehie on the Fourth.
This fight gnmo is n strictly oom
mcrcialixcd proposition nml Ander
son is not drawing enrd enough to he
entitled to this mntch with the chnmp
inn. After he bents one or two more
good boys ho will bo justified in dc
innuding n chnnco nt the title. If he
gels nwny with Cross ho will lmvc
ndded to his drnwinc ability greatly."
Must atmb Higher.
Nolan seemed willing to talk nnd
displnyed no desire to belittle Ander
son, snying: "I bnvc never seen Hud
nnd hnvc no doubt but thnt he is n
good boy, but ns n drnwinc enrd it
must be ndmittcd thnt he is not in
the class with Freddie Welsh. ,
"Take for instance n mntch be
tween Welsh nnd Ritchie," snid No
Inn, growing enthusiastic, "there you
have two champions Freddie elsh,
chnmpiou of Orent Britain, nnd Willie
Kit chic, champion of the world, that
is n cnnl that would draw n big
'gnte.' "
Nolan recalled tho fact thnt An
derson and Mandot drew only $9000
nt Los Angeles recently where both
boys were well known, and said this
wns proof that tho Medford light
weight doesn't draw as well ns a
chnmpionship contender should.
Champion Iiko n Ilor.
Ritchie, who' is n bright young fel
low, seems more like n boy just out
of school than n world's champion,
nnd unless looks nro very deceptive,
can mnko 133 pounds if Tom Thumb
could. Nolnn had n baggage car at
tached to No. 15 and Ritchie and
four sjMirring partners romed about
while en route, with enough room for
daily workouts, nnd people who be

BUD
AS LIKELY WINNER
PORTLAND. 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.

THE REAL PLEASURE CARS
There have been more Overland cars sold in and around Medford during the last year than all
other makes combined, regardless of price. WHY?
Regardless of price, you will get more real enjoyment out of an Overland car than any other
on the market. Economy, easy riding, reliability, endurance, ability to go where any car on earth
can go, hill climbing unexcelled, and last but not least the service I give to Overland drivers is
unequaled by any agent in Oregon. What more can you ask with the purchase of a car at any
price? Ask any Overland driver. Write for catalog.
