"Got to have a flat guarantee of $25.000 for Wolgast's end, win, lose, r draw," said Tom Jones, the champion's manager, last night.

At the end the Oklahoma man's face was battered to a pulp, while Flynn was unmarked save for a lump over the le't eye. t , .Asa possible "white hope" for championship class recognition, Morris is a failure. He had nearly fifty pounds lrr weight and five inches in height as advantages over the Pueblo man, but failed to daxe Flynn at any stage. j Morris really had only one round, the third, and in all the others Flynn was the master in ring -work. All through the fight Morris kept using his great weight and strength to weaken Flynn, but the latter invariably had the better of all the close work. His left hooks and jabs sent the llood flying and at all times he was willing to take punishment in order to send back worse than he got. Morris landed many hard lefts and rights in every round, but Klynn seemed impervious to the grueling he got. It was the bloodiest fight ever seen In this city, and many of the spectators around the rlntrslde were astonished at

GOVERNOR DIX BOXING BOOSTED New York. Sept. 16. "The people have shown that they want boxing In this state," said Gov. Dix today. "There has been such a growing demand for it

that the state was forced to recognil it and make laws regulating the sport. If the law is not adequate to deal with the situation It will have to be amended." The governor had been questioned regarding the scenes that attended the first bout under the Frawley law In Madison Square Garden and was Inclined to blame the police for the confusion on that occasion, saying there were not enough of them present t regulate the crowd.

London, Sept. 16. Notwithstanding sermons and fervid denunciations. Calvin Brown, proprietor of Earl's Court, has dafied the London city council and clergy with a declaration that the Johnson-Wells match will be pulled off as per schedule. Brown holds his lease on Earl's Court, which is the oldest amusement place In London, from the city council, and the council has the power to end the Court's life if it so desires. Brown's defiance may result in' a number of things. The promoter is open to suits of all kinds if he calls the match off. He has spent big sums In advertising it and has given the champion $7,500 in advance, and 16.000 seats have been sold. Popular feeling is that he' will maintain his attitude toward the council and clergy and take the chance-of having his court closed. He has a twenty-one year lease on it.
