HE latest is that One-Round
Hogan will not desert the ring.
The Madison A. c. viii probably
stage Hogan with some of New York's
best lightweights in the near future.
Hogan would be a fool to leave the
ring because Champion Wolgast beat
him in his fifth fight. Hogan should
continue. He's better than a lot of
lightweights now.
Hymie Gross told me Saturday that
a physician who happened to be a
spectator at the Whirlwind Club
Thursday night when the Kline-Coster
bout came to such an abrupt end,
examined Coster fifteen minutes after
he was carried from the ring, found
him all right and asked Joe if he did
not want to fight then. To all of which
the Brooklyn boy calmly said "No.''
In answer to j. X, who writes me to-
day to ask if the referee did not fail
TO call the bout in question no contest
and therefore Coster won, would say
that about a half-hour after the fight
had stopped and after many persons
had zone home the referee made this
announcement: "On account of three
doctors failing to agree as to whether
Coster was injured or not the manage
ment has declared the bout off, and the
men have agreed to resume the bout
at this club May IS" That should be
definite enough.
Furthermore not a Coster man asked
a Kline man to pay his wagers, every
thing standing for the next bout. This
should cover the situation.
Jim Savage and Dan, both benedicts
Of short duration, are training a bit
at Troxler's these days. Dan, who was
married last Wednesday, may box Il
little ~hereabouts until he receives word
as to the examination he took for adj
mission to the fold of the park police.
II he doesn't connect there Dan and his
bride are going to Somerville.
Jim is using Dan as a sparring part
aer. Jim is looking fer n match for
Saturday night at the New York A. c.
He was to have fought Dummy MaXon
at the same club last Saturday night,
but he was not feeleing just right n
was advised not to box.
In company with the Savages was a
son of a wealthy New Yorker. whose
physical condition Jim is seeking to
improve. The Orange heavyweight was
te haze gone to Europe with tins young
man and his father recently, but the
latter at the last minute found it I'M
possible to go.
Jim looks good these days.
The South Orange F. c. is prospecting
more from a baseball standpoint this
wear than ever. The attendance is
good and the article of baseball fine

of landing the Japanese team Tor a

Tommy Hogan, the Newark boy, sent
word to the writer today that the
Tommy Hogan who was saved from d
knockout at the Hurley A. c. stag
last week was not he. but somebody
else, who either has the same name or
stole his,
Dick Curley. of the Whirlwind Club,
of Brooklyn, is making every effort to
get frankie Conley as an opponent Tor
Patsy Kline at his club shortly after
the Newark boys match with Coster.
Al Burns, the local boy, fought a six
round draw with *. o. Moy keystone
at Allentown, Pa, Friday night.
Toe Coster fought and beat Benny
Kaufman, of Philadelphia, Saturday
night. He must have been badly hurt!
Billy Zimmerman's speed is electrity-
ing Atlanta fans. In n game last
week, a 2-2 game, the Down Neck
bow mad a home run two of the teams
seven hits. and scored both of the runs.
Joe McDonough, the orange Valley
mag is surely out of the game
for good. It's too bad that seinl-pro
ball should lose such a good sport as
Joe.
