McGovern at Hartford, some one re-
marked to the Denverite, You can't
claim the feafherweight championship
because you are overweight"
Never mind" said Corbett- LAS 1
walk down the street people VIII say.
There goes the fellow that knocked
out Terry McGovern' and that will be
championship enough for me-"
So in Moran's case. He will always
be remembered as the man who first
krocked cut Battling Nelson in the or
thodox way, ard such a distinction will
last him 4 lifetime.
Charley Harvey said: "Of course.
Wolgast can say he knocked out Nell
son toe: but we know differently. The
fight over at Richmond was stopped
on account Of darkness
Now, Harvey isn't sticking to the line
OF fact. for. as all the world knows
referee Eddie Smith stopped the fight
because he feared the effects on Mel
son if he allowed it TO continue.
Matters were lit in such shape, how
ever. that the spectators wondered
what would, have happened if Smith
had not intefered- IN the NelsonM Moran
case there was rot a chance for a legi-
innate argument.
Time May Reverse Things. y
AS the months roll on, the light will
be turned or Moran more and more
and il will not be surprising to the
writer to see Wclgast hunting Moran
for match, instead of Moran hunting
Wolgast as is the case now.
In England particularly warm well
come awaits Moran. And little Won
der, for after the way the British
pride in connection with pugilism has
been humbled, it is quite an achieve
ment for a native of the tight little isle
to crack what Billy Jordan described
as the hardest nut in the world"

too. in the Jeffries dope matter Many
will say:
Its a silly excuse for a poor show
ing, and l don't believe a word of it"
But who is there can say, Il know it
isn't true2"
In this Moran-Nelson business there
were COCO or 1000 persons witnessing
falling or being knocked down until
many demands arose that the contest
be stopped They finally saw Nelson
on his knees steadying himself with
his hands placed against the floor. They
heard referee Selig beginning in a de-
liberate manner to count off the sec
onds in q remarkably clear voice. They
heard concluding words. Eight nine,
you're out" and they saw no attempt
on Nelson's part to rise to his feet
it being fully two seconds before the
Battler began to straighten up.
After talking with dozens of specta
tors 1 have seen no one to whom the
circumstances appeared differently
from the way I have stated them. and
for that reason Nelson's attitude in
the matter is not easy to explain
WoIgast's Figures High.
When asked to box Owen Moran, it is
said that AID Wolgast named high fig
ures and declared that he would not
get around to the making OF a match
with the Englishman before next
spring.
It seems to me that in little while
WoIgast will recognize that he cuts
much less of a figure in pugilistic at
fairs than Moran does. 1t is true that
Welgast is nominally the lightweight
champion of the world by virtue OF
that interrupted contest with Nelson
on Richmond field, but Moran's per-
Torrance with Nelson will be remem-
bered when what Wolgast did TO the
Dane is forgotten

San Francisco, Cal, Dec l9.--Bat-
Ting Nelson isn't prepared to admit yet
that the last has been seen of him as
a factor in pugilism- This is simply
specimen of the vanity that goes with
the Oueensberry temperament, for Mel
son is no more like the Nelson of Old
than a worm followed walnut is like
one that is full of sound, whole meat
Bait sticks TO the story that the
count was wrong when he lost 10
Moran. and the wonder is that he does
so. In the first place, he should feel
that such a course is REPRESENTATIVES,
Aside from physical courage, there IL

picion that heis somewhat shy of the

the rest of them, and here's a health to

N%R Room for Argument.
Above all, Nelson hasn't even splin-
ter of a peg on which to hang an argu-
ment There are cases when doubt Is
bound TO exist as for instance in the
matter OF that foul punch administered
to Cans by Nelson at Goldfield- Even
those who saw and could never have
faith had their faith in their own eyes
shaken if they listened to other posi-
tive fellows who saw otherwise. So

After her Futurity victory, Nella Jay

was retired to the brood mare ranks,
