The veterans performed as per schedule, winning with great regularity, so far as net results are concerned. But the “young idea" supplied some fast and brilliant tennis, and made their elders extend themselves at all points. Harry Hallman, In particular, after losing an easy first set to Bryan Grant, pulled himself together and the next act went to 10-8 in a spec tacular struggle that again and again aroused applause among the specta tors. Another much-deuced set was the second between H. J. Hall and T. M. Wilson, won by the former 11-9. The victor led all the way in the first set. but his opponent instituted a style of his own in the second and worked out one of the tightest sets of the day. Carleton Smith was an easy winner over J. K. Orr, Jr., 0-1, 6-2. In the tw’o matches of the second round, played yesterday, D. H. Starr beat E. R. Black and Bryan Grant defeat ed Floyd Parks. Following is the summary of re sults in the opening round with the schedule of to-day’s play, beginning at 2:30 o’clock.

A D WOLGAST denies that he in tends to retire, but, in all prob ability. “The Dutchman” will soon have dropped as completely out of the sight and hearing of the box ing world as has that other great lightweight veteran. Battling Nelson. In the parlance of the game. “Wol- gast is through.” The finish of Ad’s professional career has been has tened. In the ordinary run of events he should be holding the world’s 133- pound championship. The operation for appendicitis in 1911 cut down the little fellow’s stam ina and left him but a shadow of his former fighting self. Then.* too. In late years Wolgast has “gone the pace.” He touched all the bases while playing the “wine, women and song” game and grew slow and indolent. .Utter disregard of training duties was another factor in sending this wonderful little fighter to n back seat. In his losing bout with Willie Ritchie, the two battles with "Harlem” Tom my Murphy and I^abor Day's tame affair with young Azevedo it was ad mitted by Ad that he had not re spected training camp rules. • * • YY/OLGART’S ring performances ** should be carried in the record book for the next hundred years to come. It is doubtful if we will ever again have a lightweight champion so ready, willing and durable as the Cadillac lad. , Just as Jim Jeffries in his prime la’d low the heavyweights, man after man, so Wolgast cleaned up the 133- pound division. Ad was a terror to the promoters, naming his price and getting it, but he asked no favors. The tougher his opponent the harder Wolgasrt fought, and no legitimate contender for the championship was ever refused a match. • • * W OLGAST won his title In one of the most vicious and stubbornly contested battles known to the history of the Queensberry game. At Point Richmond, on the after noon of February 22. 1910, he stood for 40 rounds—40 rounds of savage and pitiless milling — against the Dane, Battling Nelson, whipping Bat at the latter’s own game—endurance. In the end Referee Eddie Smith stopped the contest to save Nelson from needless punishment. It was a clean-cut victory, and no champion ever had a more honest right to his crown than did the “Mich igan Wildcat,” as Ad was then called. • • • D URING the first half of the year 1911 Wolgast nlaced himself in the open market and as champion defended his laurels against practi cally every top-notch lightweight in America. Not once was Ad guilty of picking a “set-up.” He worked for the Phila delphia, New' York. San Francisco and Los Angeles promoters and in each instance the promoters were allowed to name his opponents. In reaclfing for these the magnates picked Ihe cream of the 133-pound class. TICKETS FDR [FIT ME SELLING FIST A A fter his two no-decision bouts with the then respected Easterner. “Kayo” Brown, the champion worked in his best form, scoring knock-out victories over his five most dangerous challengers. The hard-hitting and tigerish Bo hemian boxer. George Memsic, was stoppel in life Vernon ring in nine rounds on March 17, 1911. Two weeks later Ad took on Anton Lagrave in San Francisco, knocking out his man in five rounds. Less than a month later Wolgast had returned to New York, trained one short week and scored a two- round knock-out over “One Round” Hogan. At the end of another month he had recrossed the continent and, after a hard 17-round bout, sent young Frankie Burns to the canvas. Ad followed by knocking out Owen Moran in thirteen rounds. • • • T HE following fall the appendicitis operation disabled Wolgast and he has been “going back” ever since. “Cherokee” Tom Jones is author ity for the statement that Ad has saved $100,000 from his earnings, which ran over the $240,000 mark. There is no reason w'hy Ad should ever enter the ring again. He will always be respected for what he has accomplished and his path leads in but one direction—retirement.
