A AI n H WHITING Ww’naUGHTON. TAD. X kW It WALL .. «jF M’Clffl IN N. I AFTER BIG BOOTS NE'W YORK, June 11. -Luther McCarty, we are pleased to say, is with us. So thai you may realize what th“ addition of Luther to our population means, we wish to mention offhand, in a way,' that he slammed Carl Mor ris so hard one evening that the Sapulpa marvel stuck to the can- V«« long after the referee count ed ten which means out. There fore, by all the powers of reason ing. Lather now looms up as a member of tjhe “White Hope" di vision. Morris was not the best fighter the world ever saw, but he was considered what highbrows call in-- vulnerable. Knocking that invul nerable stuff to smithereens adds to Luther's reputation. As is always said about all cham pions and near champs. Luther doesn’t look the part of a fighter. This must always be mentioned when writing about slam artists. Still, honest. Luther doesn't look a tighter. He is a rather tall broth of a lad. extending six feet four inches in the atmosphere and is built in proportion. Slanting him over. Luther gives you the idea that he possesses some kick to his wallops. He is as mod est as he is tall; a very good trait. Luther is here principally for the arranging of a battle with either Bombardier Wells or Al Palzer, providing the latter makes up with Toni O’Rourke.

Sullivan, of the Amer ican amateur union, and other ath letic experts expressed the belief today that the Americans would n<>t only carry off the bulk of the prizes but would make many new world’s records: The East and the West are about evenly repre sented on the .team.. Although a number of former Olympic champions have been se lected there is also a great deal of fresh timber. Horrine. of Cali fornia, is expected to win the high ■ jump; Duncan, of New York, is al most certain to annex the discus throw; Ralph Rose has no peer, as' a shot putter and John Paul Janes, of CorncTl, is one of the fastest sprinters in the world.

The big champion drove 'his wife and a party of friends straight from Las VegrtS’H'o Monte zuma Springs, where he was given a cordial greeting.
