WOLGAST PRAISED
BY JIMMY BRITT
Former Lightweight Talks
OF Present Champion.

Los Angeles, Cal. July 31.-"Ad VOL
tenst is the best lightweight battler of the
hour. The champion works behind a
natural defense and when standing with
fOrearms crossed before his face, his
chin sunk to his breast. and his body
bent over after a crouching position, he
presents a veritable Queensberry fort
ress, one capable of defending an attack
from any and all Of the present-day
paraders in the 1S3-pound division
James Edward Britt. the former top
notch lightweight. to-day paid the above
compliments TO the holder of the world's S
lightweight title.
Continuing, Britt said: 'Wolgast is the
smallest man, in point of stature. that
ever held the title, and could the boys of
yesterday come from the shadows of the
past, there are at least three among them
that l would pick as winners over the
champion of to-day. Joe Cans, whose
science was so great as to appear posi-
lively uncanny: Billy Rothwell, otherwise
Young Corbett," and Willie Fitzgerald
are the men I refer to. These boxers
belonged to a higher class of performers
than the lightweight of to-day. They
knew more than Wolgast does. The
latter is lucky TO reign in a day when
there are none of this stripe Of men to
oppose him."

QUORUM is NEEDED
Fight Among Democrats Is

Special to The washingtos Herald.


Richmond, Va, July 3l.-The meeting
of the Democratic State Central Com
mittee, called by Chairman ]. Taylor
Ellyson, at the request of Norfolk Coun-
ty 'straightouts" to consider their con-
test Of the recent primary, in which they
were defeated on the face of the returns
by a narrow margin by the fusionists,
failed to materialize tonight for the
lack of a quorum, only twenty-four men,
beE being present, twenty-six consti-
tuting a quorum. Chairman Ellyson ad-
tourned the meeting over until to-mor-
row night in the hope of securing the at
tendance of the necessary two members.
Both sides had delegations present and
the 'straightouts" were greatly disap-
pointed. They will demand recognition
from the State comittee as the only
Democrats in Norfolk County.
~Some members of the State committee
object to having that body called from
all sections of the State, some Of the
members being compelled to travel 200
miles, to hear a case that could be set
tied by the county committee and eX-
pressed themselves as favoring sending
It back to that body. The "straightouts"
refused to appear tefCre the county
committee and took the case direct to
