strenuous training for that
sterling young Michigan bearcat,
Adoiph Wolgast. The former
lightweight champion Is going to
fight shy of the bouts with the
smaller fry of the lightweight
class, mindful of the fact that 1t
was against men of this classifi
cation that caused him his great
est troubles in the past. This in
cludes a couple of fractures of
the arm, obtained respectively in
battles with Jack Redmond and
Tommy Mcfarland.
IAIOLGAST 10 not going to pass
" up these battles entirely. as
he needs them in his business, or
in other words, as means of
keeping himself entirely fit for the
more serious foes of his division.
But he Is going to be mighty gin
gerry about the kind of company
he picks out. Neither Is he going
to make any weight for any of
them unless there ia plenty OF
money in sight. Wolgast is not
going to train any more in the
future than he has to in order to
keep a nice edge on his condition.
A IL this was brought out by
- the negotiations that have
been in progress for several days
relative to meeting between
Wolgast and Tommy Gary in
Cincinnati. II was this same
Gary who took sick two days be-
fore he was matched with VOL

ers didn't come through with

wouldn't be bound down with
weight conditions for men that
were not right up there near the

from baseball headquarters and was
the news of a telegram received from
Steamboat" Flanagan. 1t was dat
ed at Milwaukee, and remained,
tersely. that Mr.. Flannigan's contract
(signed) was on the way.
The other bit of information came
around by another route, and sounded
very much like a rumor.
1t said that the Feds were after
Carl Thompson and had made him a
bully offer.
THE Flanagan news sounded pref
ty good The Steamboat person
is touted as a bear-ca with the wood
and daring and brilliant fielder. He
will have to be good deal of that
to earn a regular job in the Atlanta

know that he is going to take the
chance.
Now we will look forward to en-
couraging news from Kirscher. At
last reports he was rather unhappy
about his prospective relations with
the Feds, which may mean action
pretty soon.
