It will be the first meeting between

Nelson more than a year ago.
The former battles between Wolgast
and Memsic went the ten-round limit
and Wolgast got credit for victories.
He is said to be in excellent condi-
ton. Wolgast has been here less

mediately after his recent bout with
Knock Out Brown in New York. AL
though 1t Is said he was not in the
best form when he arrived here, he

Tom Jones says Wolgast's adherents
have no cause to feel nervous. The
betting favors Wolgast, the odds being
from 2 to 1 to 10 to 2.

ERNIE LUSH

AROUND MARLIN
Is Sure to Land a Job With
Some Minor League Club
Slated to go to Dallas of the
Texas League

Ernie Lush Of this city, who is
training out with the New York Giants
at Marlin, according to the baseball
correspondent of the New York Mail
is coming along so speedily that if he
does not land a regular berth with the
big leaguers he will be sure of a good
position with some minor league or
ganization. Lush Is a free agent, be-
pense. Glance through what the Mail
war correspondent says Of Ernie:
TITS only within few days that
Ernie Lush began to show anything
at all. Loggy and overweight when
he came South, Lush had no more
ambition than q horned toad for the
first few weeks of training. He didn't
seem to care a continental whether he
played ball or not. But he's down
snap and ginger, and in consequence
is improving faster than any other
man on the team.
"He is picking up in his fielding
and slamming the ball as he did a
year ago, when for a time 1t appeared
as though nothing could keep him off
the team. He is getting his two and
three hits every game, and since he
has knocked off his excess weight is

Beals Becker, the clubs two speed de-
mons.
"Still it is hardly likely that he will
be asked to sign a contract with the
Giants. He came TO Texas as free
lance, not bound to any club. but is
sure of berth with some good minor
league club. The chances are that
he will go to Dallas, of the Texas
League.
Dallas wants a smuggling first base
man. and Lush, though he has been
playing the outfield here. covers first
well enough to hold a job with al
most any club. McGraw has prom

The latter is a pitcher obtained from

League. He has been hitting the ball
so hard that McGraw has been play
