TvHAT ten-round session between
Knockout Brown and Ad VOL
CAST at the National Sporting
Club of New York March 3 should be
q corker If for no other reason tina
this: Wolgast has lac the conceit
knocked out ) Of him and will fight
Brown hereafter instead of trying to
belittle the lad by sneering and snort
ing at him. Wolgast has probably
learned his lesson. The next bout
should determine just where Knock
out Brown stands as a championship
aspirant against Wolgast.
o.
By the way, Tom O'Rourke has some
cards arranged for the next few weeks.
Pal Moore and Bert Reyes, next week;
Tommy O'Toole and Patsy Kline, the
week after, and Brown and Wolgast
the next week.
Danny Morgan has mapped out some
work for tx. o." Brown. Besides the
bouts with Hogan n Wolgast the
left-handed New Yorker is signed to
meet Tommy Murphy at the Empire A.
c. March Is.
Paddy McGuigan should referee the
Kid wilson-Dixie Kid bout next Mon
day himself In order to make hat
faker, the Dixie Kid, fight all ne
knows how. The go" will be a good
one then.

the Olympic Club, dropped in yester-
Kurtx and Young Wagner and Buddy
Faulkes bouts for the 22d and 18th Of
this month. respectively. would be held
at thai club. He said that the pro-
posed Jim Savage-Sailor Burke bout
the club knows nothing about officially.
Tho club has been reorganized with
Patsy Kline and Hymie Gross as the
active members of the club making
all the matches.
Moe Smith has paoined Jack o'Brien
now that the Kline and O'Toole match
goes to the National Sporting Club OF
New York by promising to meet either
Johnny Kelbane or Frankie Conley at
the American Club after the O'Toole
fight.
President Ban johnson announces
that he has abandoned his plan to sug-
rest that the identity Of the official
scorers of the American League clubs
be kept secret. Nearly every club in
the league had some objection, and the
biggest howl came from st. Louis,
where the Lajoie-C Corridor scandal
cropped out. It was claimed that secret
official scorers could easily be more
crooked than II they were known pub
licly. The best way would be for the
league to appoint scorers, not neces-
sarily to travel, the same as umpires,
Then they would be under no obligation
to the club that now has the power to
appoint and employ them.
Honus Wagner Is trying to dodge a
spring training trip with the Pirates

It ia to be hoped that e the
schoolboy basketball leaguers play with
the large teams that they take with
them their present ability to play clean
basketball. Basketball mong the big
teams ~hereabouts needs some such in

The strict rulings Of the several OF
fcials of the public school basketoali
leagues is to be commended, especially
the work of Mr.. Warden.
