Wolgast Says That He'll Beard the Weight Weight Lion in His Lair
Willyum Reidy Is Sent to Use His Hypnotic Powers to Land Premier Slugger Mclntire for the Seals
! I
Sure of Ritchie's Scalp, Champ
Hurls Gauntlet at McFarland
Lightweight King Would Add the Next Heavier
Class to Domain of His Crown
By WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
he will. At least, this is the declaration made by the lightweight title holder
yesterday afternoon. As he finished speaking, his manager, Tom Jones, put
in with him, coming to the bat with an offer to bet that the little fellow
from Michigan can take the %easure of Packey McFarland or any of them.
Tones says that he will wager any part of $10,000 on his charge, and if they
care to go any stronger Wolgast will be there with some more of the coin.
Wolgast claims that with Ritchie out of his way he will have cleaned up
the present standing army of lightweights and that he will be wasting his
time waiting for new recruits to be 1 ~~ —_____—
developed. And there is a whole lot
of truth in this statement. The cham- '
pion has been busy bowling them all
over since he removed the crown
from the head o£ Bat Nelson nearly
three years agro.
The bold declaration Is more of a
*<•"? at Packey McFarland than any
dßjngr else. TVolgast has no use for
k<\\\ Up believes away down deep
In iiis heart that he can beat the Chi
cago scrapper over the lons distance i
route, and he also knows that MrFar- |
land can not make the lightweight |
limit, 133 pounds ringside.
The little fellow can very well pro- j
tect himself and his title by taking a J
whirl at McFarland as a welter weight, i
In the even of a defeat at the hands
of at the welter weight mark, I
TV'olgast would be able to fall back
among the lightweights as their king:
and if by chance he should be returned !
a winner over McFarland he would i
practically rule two ring divisions.
HIS ABSOMTB CONFIDENCE
This goes to show the confidence of
the diminutive German on the eve of
one of the most important contests of
his brief but sensational ring career,
lie is so full of the fighting spirit that
he ran not afford to wait for opponents
to be developed for him, but wants to
force the issue. So eager is he to
fight that he is willing to throw
weight conditions to the wind.
"I have beaten all these fellows,"
says Wolgast. "I knocked Kivers out,
and won far enough in ten rounds over
Mandot to satisfy myself. Now they
are sending- me in against Ritchie, and
I think that I will clean him up
quickly. Which of the lightweights
will be left for me then?
"I don't see where there are any
left, and I don't care to stall around
and wait for them. Knockout Brown
wont fight out of his home town.
There is no chance tb bring him out
here for a 20 round battle. Therefore, j
I am going after the -welter weights. I
I can't get McFarland into the ring I
with me at any weight near the I
lightweight limit, so I will tackle him
or any of the other welter weights
when I am through with Ritchie."
It is very evident that Wolgast does
not think much of Ritchie. The way
the little San Francisco lad roughed
him around the ring in that four round,
bout last summer apparently has no
y-*>ct upon the feelings of tiie cham
today. He regards that battle
rluke, saying that he was in no
condition to enter the ring and yet
held Ritchie safe.
Both Wolgast and Jones say they will
bet a heavy bankroll this time. Be
tween them they figure that it will
reach the $20,000 mark, provided, of
course, that the odds are not too one
sided. Wolgast is bound to be the
favorite. Champions always are, espe
cially here In San Francisco, where
the bettors follow a live one until
he is finally toppled over.
The champion is not in the best of
form right now, although he has a
week in which to condition himself. He,.
is suffering from a bad cold, which in- i
terferes with his breathing, and his j
left arm and wrist stiffened up to such
an extent that fast work is an im
possibility.
MISERY IPOPT MISERY
To add to his troubles, Wolgast went
out on the road yesterday morning
and was thoroughly drenched after a
brisk run. The cold which he had-con- i
tracted several days before affected !
his breathing during the efternoon. so J
the little fellow was very much peeved I
because he was unable to give the sort j
of an exhibition he had planned. When !
Wolgast does work, he works fast I
find wins many admirers by his slam- j
bang stylo of handling his sparring '
partners.
The champion satisfied himself with
c three round setto with Louis Teese of
Los Angeles yesterday afternoon. At
first he was not for boxing at all, but
as a large crowd had turned out he
decided to change his plans rather than
disappoint the fans sis l:e did Sunday
afternoon.
The little fellow was just as fast
as ever and kept tearing In all the
time, but the stiffness in his left arm
bothered him and he did not cut loose
with any of those leads that usually
characterise his boxing work. Reese
kept going away most of the time,
and Wolgast, as a rule, was on top
of him. He let go several hard rights
'or the head and*body, showing that he
still could punch with good effect
when the notion struck him.
Wolgast rounded up his work by
wrestling several minutes with Charles
Anslinger. a husky mat artist from
Los Angeles. He believes in this sort
of exercise and is always at home with
the rough stuff. He is going to make
wrestling one of the features of hie
training this time, probably figuring
upon forcing Ritchie off his feet before
he can get set to box cleverly.
RITCHIE WORKING QUIETLY
llitchie is not making quite so much
noise as the champion, but he is doing
plenty of work all the same. The San
?'rancieco lad is going along slowly,
but surely, working under the watchful
eyes of Billy Nolan. Ritchie is paying
particular attention to taking off his
weight gradually and scientifically, so
that he will be at his best when he
weighs in on Thanksgiving day after
noon.
Willie boxed six rounds yesterday
afternoon —three with Lem Kegg, a
Los Angeles youth, and three with
Frankie Edwards, the ' local light
weight. He paid great attention to the
body punches in each mixup and
roughed it as much as possible. Ritchie
knows that he will be compelled to
wrestle and tear around when he steps
into the ring against the champion, so
he is devoting much of his time to the
sort of stunts in which Frank Gotch
excels.
Tommy McFarland, one of the best of
the local lightweights, will join the
Ritchie camp today or tomorrow.
Ton-my ought to be a great help to
Willie. He knows the game thor
oughly, and, as he held Wolgast to a
10 round draw a couple of years ago,
!ie should be able to give Ritchie a
few good pointers.

SLAVICH DEFEATS
McINTOSH HANDILY
Trick Turned fa Two Rounds
of Lively Milling at the
Columbia Club
It took Sam Slavich two rounds to
dispose of Tommy Mclntosh last night
at the Columbia club. There was
plenty of action while the bout lasted,
as Mclntosh bored in and tried to land
a haymaker, but Slavich was too handy
for him. In the second round Slavich
measured his man as he rushed in and
put him sway with a hard right.
Willie .filler, a lightweight, showed
up In good form by putting Kid Price
away in a round. Miller handled him
self in nice style and showed himself
to be a hard hitter. He looks like a
likely bey.
Roy Brooks outboxed Artie Stein and
was given the decision on points. Sol
dier Le Roy and Kid Roy bustled and
tussled each other around the ring for
three rounds, when Roy uncorked a
heavy swing that sent the soldier to
the mat for the count.
Eddie Murphy sent Johnny Jones to
the land of dreams in the second round
of their contest, which was full of ac
tion while it lasted. The Celt was too
handy with the gloves for Jones and
finished the job in clever fashion by
landing a hard right to the jaw.
Willie Benn and Johnny Patrick went
four rounds to a draw. The boys fur
nished plenty of action. Tom Stevens
was given the decision over Luke Da
ley.
Bobby Ford Claims the
Coast Trap Record
{Special Dispatch lo The Cell]
SAN JOSE. Nov. 19.—Believing that
he has broken the Pacific coast trap
shooting record for the total number of
birds broken during the year, O. N.
("Bobby , ') Ford proudly announces that
he has finished the season with 4,440
broken birds out of a total of 4,745
shots fired in tournaments on the coast
this year. He has a percentage for the
season, therefore, of 93%. Ford, who
was formerly world's amateur cham
pion, has not been shooting:, however,
ujj_to his usual form. He believes that
the different conditions of light on this
coast from those of the east and the
lack of frequent tournaments, which
permits a man to get out of condition
I between shoots, are responsible for hie
I failure to shoot several points better,
and thinks that next year he will be
able to break his former world's record
for a season's shooting.
During the coming three years there
will be a great revival of interest in
trap shooting, he predicts, and he ex
pects to be entered in every event of
consquence that takes place on the
coast.
Ford broke his first world's record at
Blackwell. Okla., in 1906, when he ran
190 straight without a miss. In 1907 he
raised the 500 record to 491 -at Blue
River park, Kansas City, Mo. At St.
Louis in 1909 Ford broke three more
world's records with a run of 342
straight, 496 out of a possible 500 and
9SB out of a possible 1,000 in five days.
Ford has made a proposition to take
charge of the San Jose Golf and Coun
try Gun club traps.

The junior class basket ball team of
Sacred Heart college played the Com
pany D team of the League of the
Cross Cadets yesterday on the cadets'
court, the collegians coming out on the
long end of a 23 to 20 score. The
game was full of exciting moments and
thrilling plays. In the first half the
cadets had the advantage, and finished
with their opponents one point behind,
the score being 9 to 8. In the second
half, however, the juniors pulled them
eelves together after a few minutes'
play. The cadets fought just as hard
in this half, but the stamina of the
college boys told in the end and at
full time they were playing the cadets
off their feet.
The teams lined up as follows:

junior teams, respectively.
Those picked for the first team are
John Dennis, Joseph Flaherty, Harold
O'Neill, Eugene Welch, John Connolly,
Joseph Barry and Julian McPhee.
"Baldy" Welch, a popular junior, was

team of the college.
The high school , team includes Joseph
Barry. James Flaherty, Thomas Price
William Crowell, Paul O'Shaughnessy
and Luke Robinson. "Bill" Crowell,

They're Bitter Rivals, So Fur Will Fly Friday
Evening in Dreamland Arena
Fritz Holland and Otto Berg, which the Tuxedo club will stage Friday night
at Dreamland pavilion. These middle weights, who bail from the northwest,
appear to be unusually well matched, and the fans should be treated to a
good scrap whea they clash. There is considerable rivalry between Berg
and Holland. Bitterness has existed between them for years. Both of them
learned the game of hit and get away in the northwest, and they were
regarded as being the best men in their division in that section.
They met in a 10 round battle a couple of years ago which went the
limit. It was 6ne of those no decision affairs, and the question of supremacy
was not settled. Both men are goorl
boxers. Holland is probably the
