KELSEY WAS
in POOR FORM

= 1s tt-.4~
From all accounts Kelsey. the SOL
dier-scrappSr from Eeilehuay who lost
15-round decision to Ben de Mello
in Filp the night OF the 3rd. was in no
shape to do himselfs justice. Kelsey
was seasick .all the way across and
didn't get over his attack when he
landed. He went into the ring much
weakened, and at that showed flashes
of class at times. Kelsey is green, but
with a bit more experience will be
heard from.
! Johnny Mccarthy challenged the
winner, and after the fight asked Ben
if he would take him on. De Mello
answered that he would talk business
with $500 guarantee, whereupon Nc
Carthy very naturally laughed in his
face. Again at the steamer Mccarthy
asked de Mello if he would meet him,
and the Hilo Hack came out with a
fiat-footed refusal.

Maui Didn't Get Joys Nanny

All Maui conspired on July 4th to
get Barney joys goat. 1t was no Sec
ret conspiracy either, for both the
players on the diamond and the root
ers at the game said it out in loud,
rancous tones. Barney pitched for
the Honolulus all through the game,

physically, when he concluded that
patience further with his tormentors
would be misplaced Followed then a
scene of turmoil for some minutes
which rivaIed the greatest commotfon
ever witnessed in the. classic fields OF
Aala.
Quite while before the pandemon-
ium broke loose, however, Barney lad
quietly started in on a little goat hunt
of his own, ably aided and abetted by
his comrades on the Honolulu team.
When Maui first to bat ended its half
of the third inning with a score total

handily knocked up four on the board

to the middle islanders. Maui pulled
itself together and swatted Barney
for two in the fourth, and when at the
end of the fifth Honolulu had made
no advance the goat of Barney, with
well developed horns and whisSers,
was deemed as good as tethered on
the Kahului sand dunes and baaing

REASONS Why
WELSH MIGHT
FAVOR CHAMP
Fans Here Believe That Rivers
Is WoIgast's MaSter-An-
other Fight Likely
Rx eEoReE REEvE.

| Coincident with the report that
Lightweight Champion AID Wolgast has
successfully defended his title against
the challenger. Joe Rivers. at Los An
geles July 4, comes the announcement
that Tom McCarey, promoter of the
battle, had refused to give Wolgast
possession Of the diamond belt, emble-
matte of the championship, which Nc
Carey had offered to the winner of the
battle. The uncertainty. as to whom
the battle rightfully belonged, accord
ing TO the meager cable reports which
have reached Honolulu, is responsible
for McCarey's action.
McCarey. who is known as one of the
squarest men in the pugilistic world,
must have strong reasons for his re-
fusal to give the belt to Wolgast. for,
although a strong supporter and warm
admirer of Rivers, who is a Los An
geles product, he has never allowed his
feelings to overcome his square judg-
ment. This brings up the thought that
something must have been radically
wrong with Referee Jack Welch's deci
sion in awarding the fight to Wolgast,
when both men were practically knock
ed out, an unprecedented occurrence in
the history of pugilism. How he could
possibly have awarded the fight to one
man, when both were on the floor, from.
the effects of blows delivered stimuli
taneously, is mystery to the local
fans, and there is much speculation
regarding his action. pending the re-
ceipt of more complete reports of the
battle.
Some speeuIations.
In view Of the result of the mill, as
decided by WEIGH. against whom nothz.
ing savoring of dishonesty has ever
been brought up, the following points.
summing up the before and after of
the battle, will prove interesting to Ho-
nolulu followers of the game.
1. WEIGH and Tom Jones, Wolgast's
manager, have always been warm
friends. -
q Several weeks ago, WEIGH was
asked by Promoter Jack Curley of the
Flynn Johnson fiasco. to referee the
so-called battle at Las Vegas, but re-
fused conditionaiIy,1 stating that if VOL
CAST wished him to. Judge his battle
with Rivers, he would give the light
weight champion the first call on his
services. ,...s 4B
3. After counting out Rivers, while
wolgast also lay prone on the mat,
WEIGH assisted Wolgast to his feet and
hurriedly left the arena.
