Morgan Still Thinks Brown a
Match for AID Wolgast.
PIRATES LOSE THEIR APPEAL
Board of Directors of National
League Sustains Ruling of
President Lynch.

The manner in which owen Moran met
defeat at the hands OF Ad Wolgast in San
Francisco on Tuesday aroused much COM
ment among boxing fans" here yester-
day Opinion was largely divided before
the bout. and although Wolsast entered
the ring a favorite at 10 to :, some good
judges did not hesitate 10 express strong
leaning to Moran because Of his skill.
Jimmy De Forest, manager OF Pal
Moore. who boxed a draw with Moran,
said in speaking OF the fight. Il was quite
q little surprised at the outcome OF the
bout. Moran certainly figured to win on
points in a fight OF twenty rounds. owen
is one Of the cleverest men who ever drew
on a glove. but Ad was too tough for
him. I guess this bout will give the fight
followers Of New York an idea Of what
Wolgast could do 10 a certain youth
named Brown If he ever cut loose"
Dannie Morgan, manager Of Knockout"

plans for the near future. but the silent
one had time 70 ease his tortured brain Of
a few remarks all OF which centred about

world Knockout Brown organ said
Wen AL did il. and just as l said he
would. The man does not live who can
burn the candle ar both ends and be a
fighter. \ lot OF critics howled when 1 re-
fused TO match Brown against Moran. but

When Wolsast came here TO the East and
met Brown 10 was the champion who did
an the backing up. and I'D can thank his
stars that the Dutchman was bewildered al

club Of America. or there would have been
O. new champion lightweight Of the world
II am right after Wogast, and although
we cannot arrange a bout until after he
meets Mcfarland on Labor Day we will
7 certainly get him in the fall or next win
ter. ANY time will DO me Brown can lick
him now. but little more experience will
do him no harm. II Wogast will only
stand up and right the Dutchman he Will
/ be beaten. for the lightweight is not in the
ring to-day who can take that kid wallop
and come back
Brown is young and strong and he is a
careful liver His fight with Bert Keyes
showed everybody that he can take punish
ment and come back, and any one who
saw him box Wolsast in either New York
or Philadelphia viii admit that he can
carry the pace with the best OF them. ANY
place, time or distance Will suit Brown.
There has been some talk in the past
about Brown and Mcfarland. All I will
say is this. Let 'Packey do the light
weight limit and lie can meet Brown. No
welterwelGhts will meet that kid while l
am his manager. No lightweight VIII be
barred
