~ AN FRANCISCO, Oct, 1s.--In th
matter of drumming up fightini
dates for Lightweight Champion
Ad Wolgast, Manager Tom Jones
is running amuck. And it stands tt
knowledge and consent of his fighter
1t may be that Jones will keep faitl
with Jim Coffroth in the matter .oi
bringing Wolgast to San Francisco fol-
a Thanksgiving day contest-the writer
believes he will--but there is no shut
ting ones eve to the fact that Jones
is angling for bids from every promoter
in the country.
If a man is to be Judged by his acts
Jones would have Wolgsst boxing every
week between now aud Thanksgiving
and every week between Thanksgiving
day and New Years.
At auv rate, he seems disposed to
sign for any place where .'the induce
ments are satisfactory. and tins
without giving a thought to the pos
sibilities of defeat or accident that at.

Why this recklessuessa
What does il all nean9
Is it, as some suggest. that VOL
has done for him rs champion and
that he intends TO bunch his rights
and go on raking in purses until defeat
calls a halt?

SsA,s faith i'll his own invincibility
mounts to a craze that he believes
he could defend his title successfully
every day in the year il gwen an
opportunlfye
In either case, Wolgast 8 methods are
not those of a level-headed champion
nor Jones's tactics those Of an astute
manager, and it requires very simple
lines of reasoning to show why.
Takes Big Risk.

woefully and would have been an easy

But that's neither here nor there,
The winner was the one lucky enough
TO secure the match and the winner
