WOLGAST
GIVEN

Twenty Rounds of Fast and Furious
Fighting at San FrancIscO.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. S0.-A. Wolgast
or Milwaukee was given the decision over
Lew Powell at the end of twenty rounds
OF furious ana at times bloody lighting.
start to finish and his Whirlwind rushes and
aggressive ~infighting proved a combination
that the local fighter was unable to meet.
Powell was the favorite at odds of 10 to
8, and he was backed for thousands. 1t
now is conceded by all that Wolgast, after
his showing against the Californian, is the
legitimate opponent Of Champion Nelson.
The fight tonight was remarkable for
the terrific clip the fighters maintained
and the Discrimination at any time to break
ground or shirk punishment.
Wolgast opened the battle as If he in
tended to make a runaway fight OF It. He
fairly dazzled Powell with his speed, and
his aggressive fighting at close range was
a revelation. Time and again he drove
right and left shOrt-arm blows to the body
and jaw and kept his arms going with
such piston-like regularity that Powell was
all at sea.
Try as he might, he could not elude the
MilWaukeean's determined rushes and the
pest he could do was to protect himself, let
alone administer any punishment. VOL
CAST directed his early attacks to the kid
ncys and soon great red blotches bedecked
PowelIs back. The men fought almost
constantly at close range throughout the
entire battle, and while in this position
Wolgast sent in smash after smash on the
blood was spouting in streams from his
mouth and nose. One round was a repeti-
ton OF the other, with Wolgast Invariably
holding the upper hand.
In the twelfth round Powell made his
only showing.

wants of England and the continent with
the result that Radium was found to pro-
duce certain positive effects. Expert
mentation has continued until today II
Is conceded by physicians all over the
world that the Radium Treatment is ben
etcial in many cases upon which ordin-
airy medicines have little or no effect,
The benefits derived from Radium
treatment are due to carnations Of gases
different from any chemical gas. The
action of Radium Treatment contributes
activity to the tissues and cells Of the
human system.
Rheumatism. Catarrh, Epilepsy, Asth-

LINCOLN, Nov. g.-CspeciaI)-Johnn
Bender, former Cornhusker foot ball star.
and this fall head coach Of the Haskell
Indian eleven, would be coach OF the Ne
braska foot ball team next season. He
has formally applied for the position in
a letter to President Richard Of the Ne
braska Athletic hoard. Bender's chances
Of getting the Job, though. are ri the best
most predetermined. and what attitude the
~Cornhusker board will assume toward him
Is extremely doubtful.
There are many students and Lincoln
followers Of the Cornhuskers who are not
willing to concede that Nebraska should
change coaches next fa1. Many people
students, alumni and outsiders-would
like TO see Cole at the head Of the foot
bail team next fall. A majority OF the
members OF the eleven Of this fall are
strong for Cole"
one Of the players, a line man who
played his last year OF foot bal this fall,
declares: "As a member Of the team, l
think 1 should know what he was up
against. II he had had the material this
season he would have given us a cham
pionship eleven. He had the material for
a line and Nebraska had the best line in
the west, but for the backfield there was
not enough material to make a strong
offense."
Everybody Taking Hand.
The agitation over the coaching job has
stirred up more interest at this school
than has been manifested here in several
Years in respect to things athletic. One
Of the Lincoln afternoon sheets has been
printing hat a column every day for two
weeks on the demand for a new coach.
The other afternoon paper and the morning
sheet are favorable to Cole for another
season. Alumni Of the university are
taking a hand and are writing letters to
the athletic board. telling what they wish
could be done.
Both Cole and Bender have offers from
other schools and they Will have to ac-
cept them soon or lose out. Cole has
been offered the position Of head coach
OF the foot ball team at the University
OF Tennessee. An evening paper here an
nounced yesterday that he had accepted
that position, but King Co,e denied the
report in a telegram from Toledo today.
Bender has been offered the position Of
athletic director at the Kearney Military
academy at a salary of $1,000. The salary
paid there is $500 higher than Cole re-
ceives at Nebraska. Cole, of course, is
paid $500 for coaching foot ball only. At
kearney Bender would have to remain
there the entire year and coach all
branches of athletics.
