NELSON IS BADLY
HAMMERED BY
VOL CAST

/ (By United Press Leased Wire
LOS ANGELES, July 14.-Bat-
thing Nelson, champion of the
world in his class, caught tartar
in AID Wolgast of Milwaukee last
night and was completely whipped
as far as punishment and display
of skill went in the 10-round bat
tie here.
In six of the ten rounds VOL
CAST had all the better of it and
ne held his own in the other
rounds. Nelson was bloody and
his face swollen and disfigured
when the battle was over. In the
last round, also, Wolgast had him
ON the defensive, something very
new to the Dane. Nelson was
simply compelled to back up for
the Milwaukee lad, although the
latter was FIVE pounds lighter.
No decision was given, but ev-
srybody was convinced that VOL
CAST had the fight his way.
