Claims of Foul Groundless.

Moran claims that Wogast fought foul
and his seconds said that their man had
been hit low when he went down for the
count. There was no evidence that this
was true, and the referee and ringsiderS
were unanimous that no foul had been
committed Il may have been a squeak
from a hard loser but it didn't help mat
ters any for the Moran side of the pic
ture.
Talking with a bunch of fight fans the
other day my attention was called to the
fact that when brothers are engaged in
the pursuit of professional pugilisrn they
are sooner or later licked by the same

Big Increase in Purses.

Purses have greatly increased in the
last decade or so. Champions. and espe-
ciaily in the lighter classes, were salts
fed TO box for few hundreds In the old
days. while a thousand-dollar prize was
looked upon as extraordinary. but now
every near champion wants TO name
his own figures, and the peculiar part is
they get away with IL. To my mind the
foolish and ruinous competitive bids of
the promoters have not done the game
any good. Furthermore. il Is working an
injustice on the fight loving fans who
support the game. as they are the ones
increased admission fees. The tariff Is
out OF all proportion in most cases TO the
quality Of the sport.
In the old days club managers had all
the best of IL, but today the boxers get
the cream. Not that they are not entitled
to all they can get but the policy OF live
and let live is best for all in the long run,
