In the World of Sport
AGGIES OUTCLASSED
UNIVERSITY TN LAST
GAME OF THE SEASON

The North Dakota A. c. won sweet
revenge for every defeat it has suffer-
go IN the past at the hands of the uni
night when a loyal band Of U. rooters,
who accompanied their team from
Grand Forks, saw their pets, outclass-
ed, overwhelmed and completely rout-
ed: The game was so one-sided that it
did not hold the keen interest of the
crowd to the end, but it was a delight
full evening for the Aggie rooters. The
final score was Al to IL.
Ihe big question asked by Fargo
fans as they saw the university crum-
pie before the Aggies was: How did
that bunch ever win over Fargo COL
lege?
Although Fargo college has won
clean, claim to the state championship
this year the series of games between
the three schools resulted in a most
unusual mix-up. Fargo college won
two games from the A. G. and won one
game from the university, losing the
other. The A. C. defeated the univer-
sity twice, but lost twice to Fargo COL
lege. The university lost two games
to the A: c. and one game to Fargo
college its only victory in the three
cornered fight being over Fargo COL
lege. -.
star Of the game. After the game in
which the university slipped over a
win or Fargo college at Grand Forks,
the Grand Forks fans picked an all
university center, the all state center.
Saturday night Murphy played against
Bolsinger and the stocky A. c. athlete
simply played rings around the U. man.
Murphy looked to be standing still
most of the time and was the joke of
the crowd before the game was over. .
Bolsinger was backed up by excellent
team work on the part OF his fellow
players. The whole five was in every
play and kept the ball in U. territory
practically all the time. There never
was a. time after the first five minutes
of play when tho outcome of the game
was in doubt.

but rose at that and tore in after his
man in tiger-like style.
Richie tried to press his advantage
but Wolgast went into his shell when
pressed too hard and clinched and
fought with as great vigor as ever the
remaining period Of the round.
1t was wicked fighting all of the
way in this round, but Wolgast's
showing in the remainder Of that round
and in the succeeding rounds rather
discounted the claim of Jones after
the fight that his man had been fouled
and hurt.
The speed of the seventh brought a
return Of caution to the fighters and
they slowed down in the eighth. VOL
CAST changed his tactics and tried to
box Richie, but without doing him
any harm and with rather poor gener-
al effect.
The ninth saw Wolgast roughing 1t
to the limit Of his ability, but the
champion seemingly met him half way
at the game. Ritchie remained away
and fought at long range, doing some
effective work with right and left.
The final round was a hummer. the
men fighting all over the ring like a
pair Of infuriated bulldogs, but SO in
tent upon doing harm that they failed
OF their purpose. They fought on prac-
ticaIIy even terms and the fight ended
with Richie a winner by a consider
able margin.

emit hope of bringing the other down
by a short jolt. ~
Ri%chia Takes Aggressive

Richie took the aggressive in the
third, stabbing away with his left and
crossing his right with telling precl-
sion. He worked Ads head as the
Michigan man attempted to get up
under him and rebuked the low pose
of his rival by an occasionally Wlckeo
downward slam on the back OF the
hard head of the Cadillac man.
The fourth found Wolgast starting
off a bit more cautiously, with Richie
following the same stabbing tactics.
Wolgast warmed to the work and was
soon flashing out right and left, but the
champion was watching him like a
hawk and little damage resulted, al
though the air looked thick with
gloves as the Michigan man ripped
and tore after the champion.
In the fifth Wolgast took a slight
shade in the early part OF h round
by a Of the yigor of his onslaught
and was again warned after Richie
complained Of his hitting In coming
out OF a clinch.
Apparently angered by the tactics
of Wolgast, Richie opened UP In the
sixth round. He went after Wolgast
hard and slammed him all around the
ring. Wolgast seemed dazed and the
champion went after him hard to fin
|ish it -then and there. Ad fought back
but seemed unable to time or gauge his
swings and Richie took the round by
"a wide margin.
Knocks AID Down.
The seventh brought the sensation
Of the fight, when in a fierce rally
Richie planted a wicked right to VOL
CASTS stomach and the former title
holder sank to his knees. 1T looked
like Knockout. WeIgast remained
down until the count M about Eve
