Englishman.
WANTS NEXT FIGHT
Nelson called up Promoter Jim Cof-
froth on the telephone yesterday
When DO you show again. Jim?" he
asked.
Maybe 1 will show in January or
perhaps not till February" replied the
promoter. Why do you ask?"
Why? Because I want the first open
5are you have I want Wolgast and I
an going TO put in my application
right now"
But you must remember that Moran
beat you and that he will be entitled to
the first crack ct the champion" sug-
gested Coffroth.
Never mind about Moran" returned
the Dane Il can beat him any time. He
doesn't worry me. Wolgast is the man
am after. and want you TO get him
for me on the first open date"
COhroth promised to do the best he
could for Nelson and they said goodby
10 each other. Coffroth, however, has
not had any dealings at all with the
champion and is not thinking Of any
particular match for a while.
Nelson was about town all day yes
.erday mixing with his friends and tell
'ng them how well he felt and how he
vas not counted out and how he Will
come back" again and go after VOL
East. A dozen and one other things the
Bsttler said. but never once did he ad-
NIT that he had gone back, never once
did he give his victorious opponent
credit for beating him fairly and
DQuarely. He refuses to admit that he
IS beaten.
Nelson probably will remain around
'or & few days. He has some business
% attend 10 before he goes back TO his
home in Hegevisch. In the meantime,
ne says, he may go hunting in the
mountains. Bat is a great believer in
The outdoor life, and as a general rule
he takes TO the wilderness after every
ring encounter. no matter whether he
wins or loses. Unlike most of them, he
'ever suiks or gets the blues
Moran is still jubilant over his sensa-
ional victory, though he does not do
much talking. He leaves that part Of
ne game 70 his manager, Charles Har-
Fey, who is very well able TO look after
the job. The conqueror OF the Battler
and his popular manager viii pack
heir belongings and HE to New York
tomorrow morning.
Moran has several theatrical dates to
5ll He is one Of the best cards in the
business today. and ne intends TO take
advantage Of his opportunity TO reap
his harvest Of gold while the game is
good. For the next two months or more
Moran expects to keep busy in vaude-
vile. In other words, he is going to do
what most Of the great ones have done
p the past.
MORAN AFTER WOLGAsT
Naturally. Moran viii go after VOL
east Immediately" said Harvey last
p ght. That alleged statement Of VOL
gasts in which he is quoted as having
demanded S12,50O and the naming Of
the referee is hard TO believe. For my
part, I can not imagine Wolgast max
Ing such an absurd talk as that Why,
it Is ridiculous on the face of il.
Why he named next May as the
probable date is another one that can
not figure out. but perhaps he wants to
forestau his licking as long as possible
When he is ready TO talk business
commOdate him. Moran wants an even
break. and that is all He positively
VIII not stand for Wolgast naming his
own referee.
Moran beat WoIgast handily in a 10
round bout in New York couple Of
years ago. and he has been after him
for q return match ever since, but the
champion never WOulQ liSIen TO MS
pleadings. Moran can beat Wolgast at
any distance, and just as soon as VOL
CAST shows willingness to sign UP, the
Englishman VIII show the public"
The Englishman is a modest little
chap and avoids rather than seeks no
toriety. However. he is very much
elsted over his victory, and he is con-
fdent Of his ability to take the cham
pionship away from Wolgast If 1T is his
good fortune to ever hook up with the
man from Michigan. The sooner this
match is made the better the Britisher
viii like it.
The moving pictures of the battle are
believed TO be as good as any ever
taken Of contest The films were
shipped back TO Chicago Immediately
after the battle. Just as soon as they
are developed and printed they will be
put on exhibition throughout the coun-
try.
Cofroth received a wire from Oscar
Hammerstein yesterday asking him If
he would accept an offer TO put the
pictures on the famous New York thea
ter stage a week from today. This goes
10 show that the eastern fans took
quite an interest in the affair. Coffroth
viii Immediately ship several sets OF
the films back TO England, where he be-
liexes they viii have q great run on ac-
count Of the Britisher's victory.
Now that the Nelson Moran affair has
been disposed Of the fans are all look
ing forward TO the proposed 20 round
encounter between One Round Hogan
and Johnny Frayne on the afternoon of
December Il. This affair gives promise
OF attracting nearly as much interest as
last Saturday afternoons mixup, though
II lacks the class
Frayne will start work this morning
over at Al Whites place across the bay.
White, who is now looking after the
boys interests, viii direct his training.
Hogan will take up the San Rafael
quarters just vacated by Moran. His
manager, Walter F'raney, is already
looking around trying to bet some
