L;.!l .Schwartz has definitely an- ’

who he will be depends „on coming,
radefl as he was not provided for j

hunch prevalent in Nashville that]
■he new' man will be Kraft, the hard- j

Italian Has Proved His Class
By Left Hook.
D ll) the leader ever hear of
Joseph Carrora, a fighting na
tive of Sharkal, Italy ? No?
Yes, he has if he reads the spoiling
pages. Carrora travels under the
name of Johnny Dundee and Is the
latest sensation among the light-
eights. The Americanized Italian, by
getting something of an edge over
Charlie White in the newspaper ver
dict at New Orleans Inst Thursday,
leaped right up among the boys who
are scrambling around trying to land
a match with Champion Willie
Ritchie. White has been in line for
r crack at Ritchie for some weeks.
Milwaukee clubs have been bidding
for the match. Now Dundee has in
an astonishing and sudden manner
stepped right out into the spot where
White stood, and it Is possible that
he ms' beat Joe Rivera to a colli
sion with the only lightweight cham
pion California ever has had
White Not Disgraced.
Before we plunge any deeper into
this Dundee narrative we w ish fo say
that we do not consider that Charlie
White has been disgraced at all.
Dundee deserves great credit for his
victory, all right, no matter how
small the margin. But not much
censure is coming to White. Prob
ably he simply had a bad night. We
.re one among those who would be
induced to give him an even break
against Dundee in another tussle
In fact, the upset may help White,
w hen we come to think it over, (.’hat-
lie has bepn getting ruily the past
few months because many of the
good lightweights have refuged to
meet him They did not care to
take a chance of getting hit with that
left of his Charlie’s consequent In
activity no doubt has shunted him
off his boxing stride. White evi
dently ha 11 been nut to finish his men
quickly In his few recent conflicts
and has neglected to box carefulv.
a little thing he knows well how to
do. He'll come back, ail right, ha\
ing learned his good lesson in the
combat with the Dundee chap.
But to get back to the Dunden pen

Monteith Picks a Name.
Scotty Monteith, one of the j
shrewdest of the New York cotorie
of managers, took Young f’arrora
under hi* 1 wing aftej looking b in'
over intently in a few of his early
flights. Scotiv is n genuine Scot
himself and haila from Dundee, too.
He realized the name Carrora would
never do for a topnotch fighter aurh
hs he hoped to make of the lad from
Sunny Italy, So lie named him after
his home town of Dundee and picked
out John, a good fighting name, an
his front monicker. Carrora since
has made the name Dundee famous
in the ring and Montieth mnv 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 whs credited with the ahade
in all of them, so Monteith writes
He wa.« extremely bury 1n 1911, box
ing no less than 45 times without
getting a real licking Among his
opponents were Mike Malta. Frankie
Fleming Kid Goodman. Young Mc
Govern. Young Packey Hommey. Ed

Tommy Houck. Young Shugrue.
Young Cohen. Young Ketchell. Harry

Lost to Charlie.
I#ast year he battled nineteen times
rs .a featherweight with only one
decided reverse. That was an artis
tic trimming at Syracuse. N. Y..
handed him by the same < harlle
White who boxed him Thursday in
the South. White gave Dundee a
dandy licking that night and sent
aim hack to New York in bad shape.
Among Dundee's other 1912 for* were
Eddie O’Keefe. Young AN agner. Kid
Julian. Pa« ev Hommey. Patsy
Kline Mart Brock. Johnny Kilbnne
Hen rounds, no derision, in New
York). George Kirkwood, Harry
Thomas and Pa! Moore Another
hard gang to handle Kllbane shad
ed him. but Dundee did better against
the champion than with White.
Dundee hustled 1 o the coast at
s»nrr of the 191J boxing season. He
got into two <rcraps with Jack White
Charlie's brother In the first he won
the decision after 20 round* and in
;De* second he Hopped Jack before
the limit. He also stopped Frankie
(’oTiIey.
Then Tom McCarev sent for Cham
pion Kilbane, Dundee being held as
j the logical challenger for the feather
: weight championship. Dundee •
' topped ofT nil his previous good work
by holding th« champion to an even
break.
Another Kilbane match was a cer
tainty in time bad Dundee stuck w ith
the feathers. But, sad to relate, he
outgrew the Ir»v John took a shot
at Tommv Dixort on July 4 at Al
buquerque. Recently he la cad Mat
Brock at New Orleans. Then came
the White fight of last week.
Bo look out for Dundee, you light
weights Has only 20. weighs about
130 and is still growing a bit. He'll be
big enough for Ritchie before many
months have passed. Dundee has
proved his clans and is entitled to
serioua consideration.
