Taps for Wolgast, Says Naughton 1 association
^ ^ i AT Mil WAiiurr
Expert Advises Him to Quit Game
By \\ T . \V. Naughton.
S AN FRANCISCO, April 21.—Taps
for Wildcat Wolgast. That is
as a champion. Av a good,
useful selling plater, he might cor-
i tinue for a while in the fighting game,
if he wished. If he is wise, though,
and is woll endowed with the world’s
goods as he .says, he will retire. Bet
ter that than to drift gradually int>
tin Sargasso Sea of pugilimi, as Bat
tling Nelson has done.
Wolgaat was thoroughly vanquished
' by Harlem Tommy Murphy at Uof-
froth’s Eighth Street Arena Saturday.
. It took Murphy the full twenty rounds
to gain the decision, but when the
last blow was struck and ttm last
gong had clanged there was never
1 doubt as to which way Referee Jim
Griffin would rule.
F.ven for Seventeen Rounds.
It was nip and tuck, touch and go.
for seventeen rounds. During all that
time, the lightweights fought with the
spirit of a couple of game roosters.
Murphy, maybe, was the more per-
wistent of the two. He scored tHe
greater number of punches, but when
Wolgast landed, there was more zip
and sting to his delivery. This ap
plies particularly to the tirade of
body blows.
One uppercut, delivered in the eigh
teenth, changed the aspect of the
whole affair. Needless to say. Mur
phy sped it, but whether it wa< a left

or a right, the writer for one would
not undertake to say.
At the time the lads were leaning
breast to breast und .Murphy's fast-
flying gloves were as nebulous in
appearance as the paddles of an elec
tric fan In action. The constant tilt-
ing of Wolgast’s head testified to tht | CUJL» U ^LiiTJS
accuracy of Murphy’s aim, but at that L A A A . A ^
Wolgast was not idle. He hammered OUOU 1 (I 0 0 (I
diligently at the Harlem boxer’s ribs. __ „ rtTmTT
but with tiie diminished force that | KANSAS CITY
had been noticeable for several
rounds.
They parted suddenly from a spasm
of exceedingly rapid fighting and
Wolgast’s lover face was a glisten
ing smear of red. One of the Mur
phy punches had smashed the lower
lip into contact with the teeth and a
small artery was severed.
Wolgast Tried Gamely.
Wolgast was in sore straits, but
he batled on with spartan fortitude,
the while 1 the Murphyitee on the
packed benches bellowed gleefully
over the change in the look of things
Wolgast, who for several rounds
had tried weakly and bunglingly, by
the nay, redoubled his efforts to stem
the tide with one fell punch. But he
was dog tired and wild of aim, and
it was no trick for Murphy to snap
back from the Michigander’s wild as
saults and a quick return to the at
tack. In the las't round of all Wol- I

Welters Coming Into Their Own
‘AM Can Beat Kilbane’-Rivers
C HICAfp
years
By Ed W. Smith.
HICAGO, April 21.—In recent
ars the welters have not been
very popular in any section of
the country, because there were few
of them worthy of a leading classifi
cation. Recently, however, they have
been coming into their own, and with
several corking good fighters spring
ing up in different parts of the middle
West, we are apt to see some pretty
good contests among the 145-pound-
< rs. In the old days of Billy Mellody,
Buddy Ryan.Mack O’Keefe and Jimmy
Gardner, to say nothing of others al
most equally good, the class was dis
tinctly popular, but tht; lightweights
ousted them from their position.
+ * *
George Gardner, once lightweight
champion and a fighter of the old
school, and a good one, too, back in
tht* dear old days, has attained the
services of Johnny O’Keefe of Denver,
a middleweight scrapper of soup
class, and is about town hurling our.
challenges right and left. Johnny looks
like the real thing and says he
wouldn’t be afraid to make 154 potto !?»
at 3 o’clock in the afternoon or 13S !
pounds at the ringside
H.
mily that, but Rivers offers to bet
$2,500 that Attell can defeat every
man of his weight in the world, In
cluding Kilbane.
Rivers should know whereof ha
speaks, for lie was sparring with At
tell daily. Recently the two went
through three-minute rounds together.
The bout was certainly a hummer
Neither spared the other, for they
punched with all the power they could
put behind their blows. The set-to
was an acid test for the feather
weight. who had to box in his old-
time form to save himself from the
aggressive Mexican.
While Rivers was b' ing rubbed
down by his trainer after the bout, ne
said:
“You can’t tell me that Attell can’t
come back. I saw him fight on the
Goast when he was champion, and I
feel no hesitancy in saying that he is
every bit as good now as he was then.
I think he can lick all the feather
weights. Poor physical condition cost
him the loss of his title. Kilbane is
a good man. but he was fortunate
when he fought Attell. Abe held him
too cheap and did not train as ho
should have for that bout.
“If Attell will buckle down to hard
work, go to bed early of nights, cut
out rich food and do all the other
like to hook up with Jimmy Clabby,
Bob Moha or some of the other mid
dies. Johnny says he already has
brimmed Tim O’Neil, the Irondale
mixer, out on the Coast, which is
some recommendation.
* *
Rivers Boosts Attell.
There is at least one prominent pu
gilistic person who is firmly con
vinced that Abe Attell, ex-feather
weight champion, lacks none of the
qualities and ability he possessed be
fore he was relieved of his title by
Johnny Kilbane. Joe Rivers, the Mex
ican lightweight, vows Attell to-day
is just as good as he was when he
was king of the 122-pound boys. Not
would things that a fighter should do
reach the height of physical condition,
I think h»- could regain the champion
ship. I feel so certain of it that I’d
bet $2,500 on it, provided, of course,
that Attell trains as he should. Ab
can ‘come* back.’ because he hasn't,
•gone back.’ With proper training, lie
will be as good as he ever was.’’
