Hard, Conscientious Work In Training Is What Brought Luther McCarty the White Heavyweight Crown. Comright. 1918, by The Pram Pblidhing Oo, (The New York World) M ‘CARTY'S victory over Palser yesterday afternoon was well earned and well deserved. MeCarty has been the active, am- Ditious worker; Palzer, the loafer Since his firat battle in the ring MeCarty has worked like @ beaver. He de quick and keen, He has put his Mind Into the @ame as well an his muscle. He has not sidestepped the dest of them, but has shown his self confidence by fighting the pick of the Other big men as fast as he could get Matches, He had one setback—an un- expected setback, in the fight with Willard tn New York. Instead of drop- Ding out of wight for a while then he Went right along fighting, And the improved with every day's experience. The result—McCarty has whipped Pal- fer, He is now the most prominent of the claimants to the champlonahip ttle, Palzer was not itke MoCarty. fought gamely every time was Matched, but he wasn't ambitious, Per haps it would be more accurate to # that he wasn’t anxious to fight his way to the top. He was satistied, after Deating Wells of Knglind, to disappear from the ring for mont whfle Me- Carty was Agiting his way to the top and gaining the expernce that en- abled him to whip Palze: When asked t cy Rood man Paizer demanded a prohibitive price, He overestimated the worth of his ser vices. It was otherwise with MoCarty: he was alway willing to fight. It wa the resvit a long campaign rather than the amount of money to be earne:! in one fight that influcreed MoCarty Palzer could not look #0 far ahead MoCarty’s record looks good, He has stopped Morris, Kaufman, Flynn and Palzer. There Im Just one thing more for hin doubt he'l do ft. He has to wipe out—the ‘easful Ment agi Willard. From the way MoCarty hi improved, he should be able to do thi D"= in Australia they have pub- Nely proclaimed Sam Langford heavyweight champion of the world, In Ausiralla he looks like a world’s champion, no doubt. At any rate, he has completely demolished the claims of that awe-inspiring hunk of muscular ebony, Sam McVey. He has whipped ‘the other Sam until it has become al- ‘Most a hadlt. McVey was acknowledged champion of Europe. Zam went to Australia advertised as the man John- @o wouldn't Aight.

I doubt that they'll flock on his trail, remember- ing what Bam used to do to Jim Barry, Tony Ross and other tough customers, Mert JOW RIVERS has begun working in a style that prom. ises plenty of action when he meets Cross, The Mexican believes in hard work, although he assures me that he ts already in good fighting trim, and that the weight (13 pounds) is easy to Duke.
