Tho argument, against such a mill Is the fact that Wolgast may not have recovered sufficiently from his recent appendicitis, operation to take on such a formidable opponent as McFarland. .i A ten round bout between McFarland and Wells would be almost as attractive. Packey wants to meet both Wells and Wolgast and his manager will tryto secure a match with Wells first and, then sign up 'cr Wolgast for a later, date.

Georgetown, Tex.; March 26. While
the boys of Southwestern university
were transfixed with fright in the first inning yesterday the White Sox Pre
miers piled up seven runs, and then
won the game handily by a final count
of 11 to 1.
The collegians were all right after the scare had left them and bad that first inning been only for practice they would have given the big leaguers
quite a battle. But no man on the team seemed to be able to do the right
thing at the beginning; and when they
didn't throw the ball away the Soxr
clouted it to the fence and the runs
poured In.
There were five errors, a triple, a
home run, two singles, two bases on
balls and three stolen bases all In
round one before the collegians could get three of the Sox out. After that
the locals had their nerve aa well as their senses, and really played a fine
fielding game.
.At the bat. however, the higher edu-

KLAUS GOOD WRESTLER, BUT A POOR FIGHTER Ban Francisco, Cal., March 3. Though Frank Klaus Is accredited with a victory over Jack Dillon tn last Saturday's middleweight encounter, It is very evident that the Plttsbnrg fighter haa not gained any following in this section of the country. Fight critics are inclined to make light of Frank's championship aspirations, and It is the generally expressed belief that if McGoorty is one-half as good as his admirers claim he is, the Wisconsin lad will make short work of Klaus.
This conclusion is the result of
Klaus' palpably weak demonstration of the Queensberry game as well as his
Inability to produce the sleep producing punch. If his showing against Illon is any criterion, fans argue that he has not the jolt that rocks an opponent to sleep, and even though he should win the middleweight title he would be but a poor successorto the late Stanley Ketciel. "Klaus won over Dillon because ho was the better wrestler of the two," remarked a veteran follower of the ring. "Whenever the men stood away nd boxed. Dillon proved he was Frank's master. At least three times he had the Pittsburg idol going, and In the first four rounds he had the lead by a mile."

SOUTH CHICAGO.
Manager Joe Simpson of the East,
Chicago Coliseum rink, ' who has broug-ht the boxing game back to Its own in Lake county during- the past
two months, has arranged for another
excellent card for Monday night, April
1, which will undoubtedly outclass all tho others that have been staged.
Little need be said of Mr. Simpson's
success as a manager and fightv promoter, as he has demonstrated to the ! boxing- fans of Lake county that he is
a supporter to only clean boxing, and
In view of this fact he has gained a host of friends and is becoming known
as one of the best matchmakers in this part of the country.
For the windup next Monday night
Simpson has secured two fast and wellknown featherweights and when Char
ley "White and Steve Ketchel atep into
the r'ng for te.n rounds the fans will have an opportunity of- seeing one of the best and cleverest matches that has been staged in this vicinity In a long while. Those who have followed White
In the past year know what a great record he has made and Is climbing
fast towards the top-notchers. He is known to the boxing fans as a clever, rugged and fast man and to show his class he has been matched to meet Champion Kilbane, who is training hard to put this youngster away. Ketchel is well known to Lake county fans and his followers are looking for
him to stack up well against Whita. A six-round preliminary at 120 pounds will be staged between Young Christie and Eddie Wells. Fans are looking forward to this match with interest as both men are fast and clever and are well known in the Calumet region, where they have been seen in action before. Young Christie is training at East Chicago where he is gaining a long list of ardent followers. The seml-windup will bring together Phil Harrison and George McClelland in an eight-round match at 133 pounds. With these clasay bouts one of the largest crowds are expected and preparations are being made to take care of tho people from Gary, Whiting, Indiana Harbor and Chicago. Much enthusiasm is being shown by the Chicago fan3, who will send out a special.
