IvOLGAST WORSTED BY KUOGKGUT'
111 MID GO Itl PHILl
BROWN
Lightweight Champion Ready Target for Foe's Left, But
Shows Well in Clinches in Great Scrap.
Philadelphia. Fb. 9. Ad Wolgast,
conqueror of Battling Nelson, received
the finest and probably the most In
artistic walloping: of his career In a six
round bout with Knockout Brown of New Tork last night In Jack O'Brien's
handsome new arena. Brown battered
the Michigan, chap pretty much as he pleased for 'the entire six rounds and turned a superior smile on Wolgast's
face into a mighty serious frown at the finish.
Brown hit "Wolgast as he pleased and
when he pleased, suffering only in the clinches, where he was made to appear
the novice he really is. For Brown's
swinging left Wolgast was ever a ta-
get. All he could offer was a semiguard and the blows fell so thick and
fast that the defense was misplaced much of the time.
Wolgast became very peevish at the
Idea of this unknown smashing him at
will. But the aggressive Brown kept right at his work Just as if he were meeting a pork and beaner. '
Scarcely a dozen times during the
six rounds did Wolgast lead. He waited for Brown to do that, and then re
lied on short range work to pull him
out of his difficulties. At times Wolgast dropped his guard and stuck out his chin as a mark. Even such childish tactics failed to Impress the sturdy German. He simply whaled away as before and earned a commanding lead. Along in the fifth round Wolgast woke up to the fact that nothing but a knockout could save him. Then he began to get very rough and tried to force Brown through the ropes. But" often as they broke away Brown smashed, away like a flash and staggered the champion with his pile driving left. The margin at the close was ao clean that none left the clubhouse without picking the New Yorker as the winner. Philadelphia did not take kindly to the $10 admission and Promoter O'Brien had enough expensive pasteboards left to paper his spacious pavilion. The galleries were fairly well filled, but not well enough to pay the purses O'Brien offered.
KAUFMANN & WOLF, HAMMOND. IND.
EVERS OVER KIM;
WILL START SEASON
MATCH WITH GOTGH REWARD FOR CUTLER
Trojan Says Nobody Needs Local Grappler Promised a
to Apply For Position at Second on 1911 Cubs.
Chance at Champion If He Defeats Hack.
All doubts as to who will be the
guardian of the Cubs' second sack when the 1911 curtain is, raised April 12 vanished yesterday with the arrival of Johnny Evers from his hoime In Troy, N. Y. ' With a smile that spread from ear to ear, the Vuthor-merchant-ball
player reported his injured right hoof as sound as ever and that Manager Chance might just as well give up the hunt for a successor for his position.
Evers' apeparance backs up his talk.
He is practically at playing weigkt and
the flesh he dropped during his sick
spell has been regained. To prove that
his leg is In Its normal condition the Trojan stamped It as hard as he could on the ground and executed a little sprint, traveling just as fast as he does in whizzing down to first. "This injury really had me scared a little," said Jawn, "but not any more. I only wish the boys were to go south tomorrow. I've got a little surprise for them the first day we don our spangles. I'm going to hobble down to first base and on the first pitched ball just Watch me dig out for second."
FIGHT PROMOTERS AT THEIR OLD GAME Indianapolis, Ind., Feb.. 9. Boxing, which gets a new lease of life here tonight with the Morgan-Shipp match, bids fair to be killed In a' short time. With the revival of the game, promoters are resorting to the tactics which in the past resulted in putting the sport on the shelf. The officials of tonight's bout charge that their rivals hve tried to stop the match by having the hall condemned and are trying to prevent the bout by other underhand work.
Charles Cutler was given an added incentive' for victory over Gteorge Hackenschmldt next Monday night when the Empire Athletic club-notified the local grappler yesterday that a victory over the "Uon" would insure him a match with Champion Frank Gotch at the Coliseum March 16. Cutler now claims the American championship and hopes to get a chance at the king of all wrestlers by tossing Hackenschmidt, a trick no one has done in America. Though most close students of the mat game are conceding the bout Monday to Hackenschmidt after a hard
struggle. Cutler declared yesterday that he would surely upset "Hack's" hopes of a go with Gotch by pinning down i shoulders Monday. "I think I have every reason for believing that I'll win," said Cutler. "Ordeman made 'Hack wrestle two hours and forty minutes to defeat him, while I threw the Minneapolis man twice in forty minutes. I am bigger and stronger than ever before and will enter the ring Monday weighing about 215 pounds. Amerlcus and Beell, who meet In the eemi-windup. will be In Chicago today to start training for their tilt. This go Is attracting fully as much attention as the main event, and there Is
great difference of opinion as to the probable winner. Hackenschmidt is in the east, being scheduled to take on Zbyszko in a handicap bout tonight in New York. The "Lion" will attempt to throw the Pole twice in an hour.

out a penalty, in case the pass is not completed, will be an incentive to use it more than last year. "It was generally agreed that football injuries were much fewer under the present rules than at any time in the history of the game. It was felt that the rules as a whole should be allowed to stand with no great modifications." Coach Stagg took charge of his track athletes at once and will give them hard work today and tomorrow in preparation for the dual meet with Illinois at Champaign Feb. IS.

Coach A. A. Stagg of the University of Chicago returned to the Midway yesterday with compliments for the 1911
football rules passed last week by the national committee, of which he is a member. The Maroon director declared : that the game would gain in safety ;
and science by the changes and would give general satisfaction to the coaches and rasters. "While the forward pass might have been changed in one or two more par
ticulars, I am well pleased with what ; was done," he declared. "I think the, forward pass will be used more than ' ever this year, as the penalty for failure has been lessened. The fact- that '- the ball wrtl be brought back to the j place where the pass was made, with- '
