WO[GAST PREPARES
FOR MAND0T BOUT
Lightweight Champion Will
Meet Clever Fighter in the
South November 4.

Chicago. Nov. 1.-Adolph Wolgast,
the lightweight champion. in tow Of
Manager Tom Jones. breezed in and
out of town oil his way to the far
south to battle Joseph Mandot, the
pride of Dixieland, on November 4, at
New Orleans.
Wolgast looks much better than
when in this city last year. He was
down to 1875 pounds in his fight with
Chicago from the "a did not scale
as big as 1873. Now he is somewhat
over the lightweight notch. looks heal
thy and strong, with the old confidence
in his ability to beat anything that
walks shining from his swapping eyes.
Jones mi Wolgast met Emil Thirty.
Packey Netherlands hustling manag-
er. and there was the usual talk of a
match between the Cadillac wild cat
and the south side Irishman. Nothing
except talk resulted.
Wolgast frankly admitted that he
looked for the toughest kind of a bat
said:
"Mandot is the hest of my legiti-
mate lightweight rivals. so I expect to
get into n tough little argument on
the night of November 4. He is a
good boxer. a nasty hitter with the
right hand and able to poke your face
out of shape with his left. He'll give
me a fight. all right, but I'll beat him
just as l beat Rivers. Moran and all
the rest.
Il was not myself in my fight with
Richie, so soon after my operation.
But I'm the old Wolgast Of old now
and o know what hat means. I'm
good enough to stick Mandot right
now. but, of course. I expect to travel
some distance to accomplish the trick.
How will I beat Mandotc Oh, with
old system of body punching. l
know Joe is game. but his best friends
admit that he can't stand up under a
lacing around the ribs"
Wolgast may take on a couple of
short fights at Memphis and Cincinnati
after the Mandot affair, then jump
west for a Thanksgiving day battle in
San Francisco. Willie Richie is his
probable opponent.

The teams will probably line up as

In view of his clean-cut sportsman
ship. and %unswerving loyalty. there are
some fifteen or twenty million fanat-
les here and there who hope Mr..
Murphy's' team doesn't finish any
worse than ninth next season and that
c. Webb doesn't lose over $500, 900 or
so.
One of our main regrets is that we
will eve get to see Christy Mathew
son and Walter j. Travis clash to de-
eide the Championship Of getting the
final atom or ounce out of the respec-
tive stuff. minus only youth, which
both still carry. Isn't there some
neutral combat this pair can collab.
crate on to a finish?
After all. one can hardly blame
Charley Murphy for cutting Chance
adrift. In his seven years of Cub
management Chance has only won
four pennants. two worlds champion
ships and finished second twice. In
these striving days and times a u
must make good or drop by the way
side.
Frank l.. Chance leading the Dodg-
ers against John J.. McGraw and
Giants would probably bring on a dull
interlude at the two ends of Brook
lyn bridge. There probably wouldn't
be any more excitement than that oc-
casioned by two earnest young wild
cats set adrift within the broad con-
fines Of a Harlem fiat.
Starting the Winter league upon an.
other prosperous season. how many
eminent experts at this date last fall
were picking h Red Sox as 1912
champions of the world, the Athlet-
les to finish third and the Senators to
finish second in the American league?
The only few safe bets that seem
to stick are That Ty Cobb will lead
both leagues, that Ed Walsh will beat
that Owners Fogel and Murphy will
deserve to be kicked out of organized
baseball.
It seems about time-in common
decency-for the sporting writer's Of
America to drop Jack johnson SO cold
as to make him only a bad memory
within six months. He can be turned
over to The police reporters very safe

ctes with never a regret.
There are a great many boxers who
are clean men as to life and conduct;
men who are clean-living fellows ana
who live within the social laws-and
with respect for the criminal code.
JACK johnson has not respected either.
Success in prize ring finance inflated
this animals head. His actions and his
talk have made it Impossible for n
self-respecting white man to have
anything to do with him in any way,
and the better class of negroes are as
bitter against him az are the white. 1t

Morning Cable Report
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-04-17

All of the various Improvement
clubs of the city have been asked by
the central organization to express
their views on the proposed parking
of Kalakaua avenue, In the meqa-
time the special committee, which
was appointed some time ago to look
into the proposition, has been in
structed to go further into the matter,
and to report at the next meeting of
the central body.
Kaimuki has proved to be the dis
turber of harmony among the improy-
ers. At the meeting held yesterday
afternoon a resolution from the Kai-
muki Improvement Club was pre-
sented vigorously objecting to the
plan to spend money in improving
the appearance of the street in ques-
tion, and instructing their delegates in
the central organization to vote
against the recommendations of the
pBCNldl NOLlllllINNC udNlho NAC AlA1AN1NA
in charge and which had already
turned in a favorable partial report.
The interesting phase of the matter
is that E. A. Berndt the chairman of
this special committee. and strong
advocate of the parking plan, is an
accredited delegate from the red hill
district, and by the instructions of
his home club is compelled to oppose,
with his vote at least, the measure
he personally advocates. Dan Logan
and Ed Towse, also from Kaimuk,
are members of the Kalakaua avenue
parking committee with Berndt and
are in the same boat with him in
that they personally favor the meas
ure which their constituents oppose
Harry T, Mills and II, G, Davis
voiced the sentiments of the Kaimuki
club at yesterdays meeting, and they
put plenty of ginger into the obiec-
tions, too.
