VETS Cl SOI L OCAL tennis cracks were much in evidence yesterday at the opening of the Cotton States Championships, held this week by the Atlanta Athletic Club on the clay courts at East Lake. 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 aga^n 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.. 6-1, 6-2. In the two 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. An admission fee of 25 cents is charged, and the tennis- loving public of Atlanta is invited to attend. SINGLES. First Round. E R. Black, Jr., defeated Frank Meadow, 6-2; 6-2. D. H. Starr defeated W.

DANVILLE, ILL., Sept. 9.—Orville Selby, Danville's premier pitcher, has been sold to Kansas City for $1,000. Selby -was formerly with Louisville. Bv H. M. Walker. 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 sdgrht and hearing of the box ing world as has that other great liffhtwelgrht veteran. Battling Nelson. In the parlance of the game, "Wol- (fast 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, 'n late years Wolgast has "gone the pare.” 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 a back sent. In his losing bout with Willie Ritchie, the two battles with "Harlem" Tom my Murphy and Labor Day’s tame affair with young Azevedo it was ad mitted by Ad that he had not re spected training camp rules. * * • YY7 olga ST'S ring performances vv 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 •o ready, willing and durable aa the ’CadUlac. lftd. Just as Jim Jeffries In his prime laid 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 Wolgrvt 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 QueensbeTry 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 Refeiee Eddie Smith stopped the contest to save Nelson from needless punishment. It was a clean-cut victory, and no champion ever had a more hone°t right to his crown than did the “Mich igan Wildcat,” as Ad was then called. • • * D URING the first h I If of the vear 1911 Wolgast olaced 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 bis opponents. In reaching for these the magnates picked the cream of the 133-pound class. * * • A FTER hV c 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 mo>l dangerous challengers The hard-hitting and tigerish Bo hemian boxer. (George Mem sic, was stoppel in the Vfrnon ring in nine rounds on March 17, 1911. Two weeks later Ad took on Anton Lagrave in San Francisco, knocking out bis man in five rounds. Less than a month later Wolgast had returned to New York, trained one short w’eek and sx?oreri • two- round knxk-out over ‘‘One Round” Hogan. At the end of another month he had recrossed the continent and, after a hard 17-round bout, s»*nt young Frankie Burns to the canvas Ad followeo by knocking out Owen Mora.i in thirteen rounds.
