SAYS
DANE WON'T
OUT RING

Los Angeles. Cal, June s.-The July
10 meeting between Battling Nelson and
Ad Wolgast will be a ten-round event
and will be staged at the Maud juno
ton pavilion of the Pacific A c.
Promoter T. ]. McCarey made a defin-
lite announcement to this effect last
night. The plan to make the battle a
scheduled forty five round affair and
pull it off at Vernon was changed upon
receipt of a personal telegram from
Wolgast, in which the Milwaukee maui
err voiced his decided preference for the
shorter route.
For allowing Wolgast the ten-round
opportunity Nelson is to receive $500
on a win, lose or draw basis. Wolgast
for his try against the imperturbable
Dane will be paid $500.
IN a telegram received from Nelson
last night the Dane said he would leave
San Francisco this morning for Okla
homa City, where he fights Jack Cliff
ford June %. He will be in Los An
geles Wednesday. Freddie Welsh will
get his chance at the title all in good
time, wired the champion.
IT have definitely decided that I will
take over the Vernon arena of the
Jeffries Athletic club as soon as the
minor items of the transaction can be
attended to-" said Promoter McCarey
last night.
Should Battling Nelson still retain
the lightweight championship I shall
try for long distance fight between
him and Freddie Welsh when the Eng
fish boxer returns to this country next
fall"

sHUTOUT FOR THE SOX

Washington. June S.-The white sox
opened their season in Washington yes
terday afternoon by beating the sena-
tors to a fragile. The local men were
shut out, to 0, and it was the cause
Of great JOY last evening in the camp
of the Sullivans. Ed Walsh was the
hero of the day, for his work on the
slab reminded all those who saw the
contest of last years form.
Only six of the local men reached
first, five of them getting there on hits
and one man getting a base on balls
Three of the six men were all that
reached second during the fray. Dol
Iy' Gray was on the mound for the
senators, and he was given one of the
worst beatings he has had this year.
Nine hits and two passes We're made off
him, and most ali of them counted in
the run getting.

Thirty entries now grace the books
Of General Executive Frank H. Trego,
the Chicago Automobile club official in
charge of the Cobe and Indiana trophy
motor races scheduled for June Is and
19 over the Crown Point-Loweu course.
The field. closed Sunday night with
twenty-nine nominations, was Increased
yesterday by the entry of a second FaI-
car In tho light car classic. This gives
the first event a battery of eighteen
cars, while the western Vanderbilt, or
Cobe trial, will show a bunch of twelve
flyers.
Additional entries may be made up
TO next Thursday night. but 1t will cost
$3.50 extra for each car, the penalty for
procrastination. The total of thirty
cars, while a few below the aggregate
expected by the most sanguine officials,
compares favorabIy with the stock
chassis nominations made at Savannah,
Ga, where there was a total of thirty
seven cars. twenty of which were nam
ed for the main event.
The light car race on the Hoosier cir
cult has one more eligible than that
over the Georgia course. In all there
are thirteen different makes of auto
mobiles in the Chicago clubs entry list,

Every american driver Of any re-
nown is billed to handle a car during
one or other of the races. The only
absentee, Ralph De Palma. famous as
one of the Fiat road pilots, is engaged
for a contest in the east and cannot
handle a machine in the sndfana carni-
val. In Florida and Robertson the Lo-
comobile company has secured what is
rated as one of the strongest racing
combinations in the world.
Robertson. famous as the winner of
the last Vanderbilt race as we'll as the
star Of numerous twenty-four hour
grinds, arrived in Chicago yesterday
