Newspaper Page TextMT'S STYLE LIKELY TO UPSET NITMD By Ed W. Smith. Chicago, Aug. 28.—That old question of whether the clev er fellow with the light punch can trim the rough fellow with the heavy wallop will be brought out again in all its many sidedness. now that it looks as if the Paekey McFarland-Ad Wolgast is a sure go. Already they are dis cussing it out on the Pacific coast, and Jimmy Johnson, the New York manager who has been there for several months, brought some of it back with him and scattered the seeds along Madison street. Jimmy was an original Scoffer at Wolgast. like a great, majority of the New Yorkers who couldn't fig ure the boy at all. And, like all people who see Wolgast In a long battle, where he really shines. Jim my was converted. Now he is a strong Wolgast booster. I asked him the other day about the Wol gast-Rivers fight at Los Angeles July 4 and he was willing to ex press a strong opinion of it Picks Out the Right Man. "It is my firm belief that Jack Welsh was entirely right in the man he picked out as the winner." said the astute little Eastern man. who is about as keen an observer as one could find. "He may have made a mistake in some of the minor details, but his decision to Wolgast was entirely correct. "Now. of this thing, one must say that it is merely a matter of opin ion. but I know one thing very well. Rivers never will beat Wol gast if he lives long enough to grow whiskers down to his belt. Wolgast is in every way a superior fighter. I would bet heavily on Wol gast if ever they are matched again. Champ Is Not ‘‘All In." “As to Wolgast being all in. I am of the contrary opinion. 1 think the kid's wonderful natural advan tages will come to his aid in this emergency and pull him through. The ether in his system may trou ble him for a long time, but he'll get rid of it finally and then be as good as ever. “Around here I see that they think Paekey McFarland is a cinch to beat Wolgast in ten rounds. Don't be too sure of that. Wol tast's wonderful defense will puz sle McFarland more than a little, but the point that I figure on more than any other is the fact that Wolgast is almost certain to have McFarland backing up at most itages of the contest. And Packev backing up won't be the Paekey pushing a slob fighter around the ring just as he chooses. Fatal to Crowd Ad. "The man who crowds Wolgast when he is right and ready is going tn have things done to him, that's sure. He’s going to have some thing bumped up against his ribs that will make him pretty cautious about getting in there again. Wol gast is about the toughest body fighter I ever saw and as for clever ness of the pair, it shouldn't be forgotten that Wolgast is extreme ly clever in his own rough way and is withal a hard man to land on solidly. "Os course, it’s only ten rounds and Packey's speed in getting away and in carrying his blows forward will count some. But I was tre mendously impressed with this Wolgast chat) in that Rivers finish and don't think Paekey McFarland or any one else has any snap with him, one round or forty." THE BASEBALL CARD.
