Dattle.
The victor, Anjad Wolgast, was in
the pink of fettle and the long ex-
ertion seemed not to effect him to any
noticeable extent and when he left the
ring he was strong and evidently in
condition to go many more rounds.
The fight went Wolgast's way from
the start but 1t was not until the
fight was in the thirties that the
superiority of the winner became SO
obvious. In the twenty-second round
Nelson put forth a strenuous effort
and evidently counted on eliminating
his opponent at this stage but this he
was unable to do although he severe.
ly handled Wolgast during the better
part Of the round, once forcing hin
to take count of three seconds.
Betting favored Nelson and until
II was most plainly seen that he was
whipped man he was the favotite
with the crowd. Old time ring fol-
lowers say that it was the gamest
and most stubbornly resisted battle
which ever occurred, on the part of
the former champion.
Joe Cans. former lightweight
champion, has issued a challenge to
fight Wolgast for twenty round con-
test to be arranged according to the
inclination of the champion.

HOT SHOT FOR

the two men belong to the same class.
IL all depends upon what kind OF Il
man the western slope republicans

yictions, they must choose MIR. Vim

AS TO WINTER CLIMATE.

From our esteemed contemporary.
the Los Angeles Times. we take this
little paragraph rejecting on Colo
rado and its climate:
I'VE are not surprised to learn
that billiards. are still raging in Col
orado, because there are really only
three seasons in Colorado, which the
same are July. August and winter"
Perhaps the paragraph might be
passed unnoticed If 1t were not for
the fact that there are SO many peo-
pie from Los Angeles in Denver right
now, filling the air with their praises
OF Colorado's winter climate, which is
80 different from that damp, chilly,
penetrating climate of southern Cali
fornia, you know" From these
friends one learns that Los Angeles
has had a particularly harsh winter
that there have been formations of
ice nearly an inch thick; that the
fruit growers have had hard work to
save their crops from the frost, and
tina tthe tourists in southern Califor-
mia have shivered In the so-called
"balmy" atmosphere, and have been
glad to turn to drier, brisker cli'
mate where the cold does not pene-
! trate ones bones.
Instead of assuming that an oc-
casional snow storm puts Colorado in
the discard as winter resort. let the
Los Angeles editor who has been
quoted give this state square deal.
Let him take the testimony of the
people who have spent the winter in
Denver or Colorado Springs. He will
learn that the winter has been clear.
crisp and altogether delightful. There
have been few storms, and the snow
has disappeared as II by magic in the
bright sunshine. People have dis
carded their overcoats on many days.
and 1t is no unusual thing to see a
woman in a white dress, getting
aboard street car Just as If she were
making a call in midsummer.
For some unexplained reason. GER
tain editors in southern California
have shown a growing jealousy of
Colorado as winter resort, and no.
thing has been too absurd to print,
provided it alludes in derogatory
fashion to Colorado winter weather
But such attacks do not hurt Colo
RADIO because this state delivers the
goods, as its climatic records and its
growing winter tourist business in

ID. U. Football Men Happy.
Especial to The Sentinel I


Denver, Feb. 23.-Members of the
Denver university athletic board were
made happy yesterday by the receipt
OF contract signed by John p.
koehler to coach the Ministers again
this year, making his fifth season as
football coach of the Denver team,
winning the championships in two of
the four years he has served In that
capacity.
Koehler's contract has been expect
ed for long time and 1t was feared
when 1t did not come that the clever
coach would accept some one of The
several flattering offers which have
been made him by leading institutions
OF the West. During the winter he is
taking a course In medicine at Mar
quette university, and when he re-
turns to Denver university he will
continue his study of medicine. He
mas already graduated as a Congre-
gational minister. but will follow the
practice of medicine after giving up
athletics, which he may do after the
close OF the next football season.
