J OHNNY DUNDEE, the young East pm Italian who recently went twenty rounds to a draw with John ny Kflbane, featherweight champion, and therefore is regarded as having at least half of the title, if that will get him anything, is adjudged by tin* elder McCue to be the best man in sight at the present time for his star. The machinery has been set in mo tion already and some definite an nouncement may be expected almost any time now of the match having been clinched. McOue would be willing to let Dundee come in at 124 pounds, the same as any of the rest of them, and as this is an easy fig ure for the hardy New Yorker there would be no hitch over the match as far as the poundage is concerned. B RUNKHORST was at the Racine battle recently and saw the Me Cue threashlng machine under a full head of steam against Jeff OVonnell Even in the face of that exhibit Jack didn't weaken and said afterward that while McCue surely is one of the real bearcats of the day that Sokol and his hefty punch are liable to make Matty go to the very limit in order- to get the decision Jack has a good card on for his show, having matched Freddie Andrews ami Sorenson, who fought Rattling Nel son a hard ten-round go recently.
