Carroru travels under the name of Johnnv Pundee and is tlie latest sensatiOi among the light- eights. The Americanized Italian, by getting something of an edge over Charlie White in the newspaper ver dict at New Orleans last Thursday, leaped right up among Che boys who are s- rambiing around trying to land a match with Champion Willie Ritehi White .has been in line for a ct-ark at Ritchie for some weeks.

Relore we plunge any deeper into th:s Dundee narrative we wish to say that we do riot consider that ciiarlm White has been disgraced at all.

Scotty Monteith. one <>f t m* shrewdest of the New York cotorie of managers, took Young Carrora under his wing after looking hint over intently in a few ,,f his early flights. Scotty is a genuine Scot himself and hails from Dundee, too. lie realized the name Carrora would never do for a topnotch fighter such as lie hoped to make of Ihe lad from Sunny Italy. So he named him after his home town of Dundee and picked out John, a good fighting name, as his front monicker. Carrora since has made the name Dundee famous in the ring and Montieth may take him over some day to show the folks in Scotland. Dundee fought fourteen four-round bouts in New York and Brooklyn in 1910 and was credited with the shade in all of them, so Monteith writes He was extremely busy In 1911. box ing no less than 45 times without getting a real licking Among uis opponents were Mike MsJia Frankie Fleming.

Among Dundee’s other 1912 foes were laddie O’Keefe. Young Wagner. Kid Julian. Packey Homme.', Patsy Kline Matt Brock. Johnny Kilbane (ten rounds, no decision, in New York).
