If Mcfarland could hit like Hyland,

right. on H-land's jaw. but at no time
did Hyland stagger This lack of hit
ting power has always been Packys

did exhibition of cleverness Tuesday
night quickly realized why Mcfarland
gave Freddie Welsh q scientific trim
ming in London several months ago.
AS Welsh is g Taper, not a slugger. il
was also easy to see why the British
champion and Mcfarland might have
kept on boxing for an unlimited num-
Der of rounds. 1t was also plain Why
AID Wolgast would not meet McFar-
land unless the latter scaled 1873
pounds three hours before ring time.
for if Mcfarland had been allowed
to weigh 1876 at 2 o'clock. as he tried
to insist upon, he would probably
have outpointed Wolgast with ease il
a ten-round bout. especially in view
of the fact that the conqueror of Bat
ting Nelson is no harder hitter than
Mcfarland or Welsh.
