r LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION OF
the World AID Wolgast, of Mil
waukee, gathered in but 49, 700
yesterday for beating the hitherto
unbeatable Battling Nelson in forty
rounds at Point Richmond. outside of
San Francisco. Nelson went away
with 1000. The receipts of the fight
were $37, 000, and it was the ~fiercest fight
probably ever seen on the Pacific coast.
The referee stopped the fight in the
fortieth round to prevent Wolgast from
doing the beaten fighter serious injury,
but the game Nelson pleaded TO go on.
Wolgast hammered Nelson out of the
lightweight championship of the world.
No champion ever took so terrible a
beating. Nelson's face was a shapeless,
crimson blur. He was blinded and
dazed and wheeling for breath when
Referee, Eddie Smith, in pity, stepped
between them and lifted Wolgast's hand
above his head. 1t was the dramatic
finish of a spectacular fight.
The referee declared thai he feared
that a few more rounds of the useless
butchery might have killed the cham
pion.
For thirty-five rounds Nelson, strong
in the knowledge that his wonderful en-
durance had never failed him, walked
into a pitiless rain of blows of a fighter
was as rugged as himself and knew
a great deal more of the art of giving
without taking. He vas met more,than
halfway, held, and for the first time in
his life, beaten back.
From the first round to the thirty
fifth he tried to force the fight as he
had always done, and for the first time
In his life he found a ma who could
make the pace for him.

A S evenly matched and as ferocious
IN as a pair of mountain wildcats,
frankie Conley, of Kenosha,
Wis, and Monte Attell, of. San Fran
cisco, battled in sensational style for
the better part of three hours before
the Pacific Athletic Club in the Vernon
Arena. Conley won with a clean knock
out in the forty-second round.
Conley emerged from the encounter
without a scratch, while Attell lay on
the floor for two minutes after Con-
ley's blow OF the jaw had sent him
down for the count. His left eye was
closed and he was d%isfigured, his mouth
n nose were bleeding and his lips
We're swollen and bruised. Conley
danced to his corner. .
Attell never seemed to be able to
break through Conley's defense. He
p~erceptibly weakened in the thirty
third round, when Conley landed a
heart blow, and he was. going down
hill from that point until the finish.
Attell started the forty-second round
with his usual rush, but slipped and
fell. Conley waited for him to rise and
then staggered him with a series of
lefts and rights. AS he came away
from a clinch Attell was dazed by jabs
to his right jaw and the fight was over.

fought in a Francisco. This an
nouncement was made late last night,
following a conference between Tex
Richard, Eddie Graney, Supervisor
John L. Herget. Sam Fitzpatrick and
Jim Griffin.
The fight will take place before the
Broadway . Athletic Club, of which
Griffin is the manager. 1t was organ
lied only a few weeks ago.
The fact that this club is to get a
fight from the Board of Supervisors
caused Richard and Gleason to come
to an understanding by which the con-
test between the heavyweights will be
staged under the auspices of the club.
Herget, better known as Young
Mitchell" a former fighter, who Is
chairman of the police committee of
the Board of Supervisors. participated
in the conference. His presence is
taken to mean that there will be- no
difficulty In obtaining a permit for
forty~five rounds.
Gleason did not attend the confer
ence. No reason was assigned for his
absence.
Sam Langford last night knocked out
Nat Dewey in the first round of their
fight in Cheyenne, Wyo. The men be-

jaw, and in a second sent Dewey to
