'|S TOUGHEST EVER"
WoIqast Remarked After Being
0utpointed by Murphy.
WON IN LAST 3 ROUNDS
Ad Was Chastity Sight When Sec
onds Carried Him From
the Ring.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 19.-For six
teen rounds Harlem Tommy Murphy
of New York and Ad Wolgast oattled to-
day with little to choose between them.
Then Wolgast missed a right swing and
paved the way for fight-end decision
in favor of Murphy.
Incidentally, 1t served to bring the Har-
lem fighter to the front ranks as light
weight championship contender, after
thirteen years OF dogged effort, and he
was loudly cheered when Referee Jim
Griffin awarded him the decision after
twenty rounds of desperate fighting.
In the seventeenth round Wolgast sent
a terrific right swing to his opponent's s
jaw. 1t fell short and the ex-champion
spun around like a top and all but fell
to the floor. Murphy then smashed the
spinning Wolgasts face until the blood
sprang in every direction. wolsast wilted
like leaf and stalled and clnched to
the end of the fight to avoid knockout.
In the eighteenth round Wolgast re-
ceived the worst beating OF his long ring
career He opened with rush, but a
straight right caught him on the chin
and stopped him short. Murphy fairly
smothered his opponent in this round
with CultiLS HdlL-aFIn 1OltS 10 tne race,
and 1t required the services of Wolgast's s
entire retinue of seconds to patch his
face between the rounds.
The nineteenth and twentiet..
rounds found Murphy beating a cease
less tattoo on his almost helpless an
tagonists body and face, but the power
to deliver a finishing punch was lack
ing, and the New Yorker was COM
PEELED to be content with a Well earned
decision in his favor.
Wolgast was CHASTITY sight as his
seconds carried him from the ring.
Prior to the seventeenth round the
battle was almost a repetition Of the
previous meeting between the two
lighters, which ended in draw. VOL
CAST landing frequently on the body
and Murphy devoting himself to his
rivals face and head. Wolgasts
punches. most Of which were deliver
ed at close range. lacked force, how
ever, and had little effect.
Murphy declared he was ready to
meet Willie Ritchie for the title at a
moments notice.
Murphy is the toughest ever" was
Wolgast'S only comment.
