BRITTLE HANDS HURT FIGHTERS WORSE THAN
 SOME KNOCKOUT BLOWS

Tn sizing up a candidate for ring honors 1t is usual to lay much stress upon the depth of his chest, the spread of his shoulders and the char acter of the muscles on his arms and point that is invariably overlooked. That is the size and construction of his hands. Yet no boxer can hope to go far unless his weapons are of the best.
 Ad wolgast is scheduled to open the fall season ate Milwaukee tonight in 8 bout with Joe Mandot. This contest will have a marked effect on the former champions future ca reer. If he wins dectsively Wolgast will be very much in the running again, but a defeat will cause his re- tirement in all probability. Brittle hands, seem to have been the main cause ofv. Wolgast's troubles. Vol gast's weapons have been reduced to pulpy state from his long, hard battles.
 Woigast always was desperate of injuring his knuckIes by landing his mad swings oA his opponents skull or elbows. Both his hands have been broken so often they will no longer stand the strain of a twenty round battle.
 Charley White is another who is handicapped by weak hands. White is a more careful boxer than Vol gast, but his hands are very delicate l ly constructed For this reason

an affidavit that Nelson's knockout was made in tlae quickest time. The Hawkins-Frlahertx bout was a. prelini- nary to the heavyweight champion ship scrap between Fitzsimmons and Corbett.
 In 1897 Hawkins fought a Twenty round draw with George Dixon, the featherweight champion. The next year he knocked out Kid NePartland but lost to Spike Sullivan, the Irish lightweight. In 1899 he fought Frank Erne in San Francisco. and was knocked out by the Swiss boy in tb @ seventh round, Hrne heconaing light weight champion by defeating Kid Lavigne at Buffalo a. few months later. Martin FTaherty. the vi@6in Of the speedy knockout, fought Da1 again in 1900, at Hartford, and stayed twenty rounds to a draw. Later that year Dal fought two battles with Joe Cans and was knocked out by the negro in two and three rounds. respectively His last appearance against a top-notcher was when he fought George NIeFad- den in San Francisco. in 1901, "E4- bows'' winning on a foul in the seventh round.

White may never prove a great sue cess in long battles ana the fact
 may cost him the championship. Willie Ritchie. on the other hand. is gifted with pair of fists that would not look out. of place on a heavyweight. Ritchie owes much of ! his success primarily to this circu1n- stance. It is one of the reasons why he shows to better advantage in long fights As a general thing boxers hands begin to weaken after ten rounds have been fought. It is then that the man with the strongest fists gains tremendous advantage, and many a. hard fought battle has been Host or won in the closing rounds Efwhen one of the contestants was rem Ifdered helpless by his hands collaps- 1 Ing under the strain.
 Battling Nelson would still be do- ing violent work in the ring if his i hands were still sound. To the last
 mained intact Only this month Nel-
 son took on a youngster out West and out1asted him in sluggfng I match, in which the veteran wore E down his younger foe. just as he Ibeat Cans, Britt, Young Corbett and
 others years ago. But Nelson's hands kare no longer fit for service now
 as a result he is pothing more than a punching bag for men he could still f defeat were he able to make his l blows count.
 Leach Cross is a veteran who seems
 to have little trouble with his hands despite his hard hitting. But Cross, unlike Nelson and Wo1gast, is a very Icareful hitter. When Cross lands all his knuckles are in perfect align
 ment and the strain lis divided equal Fly, preventing any one knuckle from 1 being driven out of place.
 l It was his battered rnaulers. in all probability. that prevented Bob Fitz- Is1mmons from winning back the
 championship from Jim Jeffries in 1 their second fight. Jeffries was out
 classed in that battle and could not
 have. stood up under the freckled l warriors assaults if the latter'ss fists
 had not been. beaten to a pulp It was only after F'itz was unable to
 strike another blow that Jeffries Iscame on and won. In fact it was l said at the time that Fftzsi mrnons
 was not really knocked out. but took
 a punch in the body and quit rather
 than proIong the battle when he no I longer had a chance to win.

DAL HAWKINS WAS GREAT
 FEATHERWEIGHT FIGHTER

Among the many great little boxers who have claimed San Francisco as their native. city-including Abe Alt tell, Frankie Neil. Jimmy Britt and Willie Ritchie-not the least in bat ting prowess was DaI Hawkins For fifteen years Dal was one of the best little fellows in the ring, and he came near to cepping the featherwe1ght championship. It was just a dozen years ago today. on Sept. IS. 1902, that Hawkins fought his last regular bat tie. His ring career ended at Butte, Mont. but hardly in a blaze of glory. for he was knocked out in the seventh round by Jack Clifford. That con- vinced DaI that he was through as a house and training camp near New York, where many of the best boxers of the last decade have trained for their metropolitan bouts.
 Hawkins was born in 1871, and be- gan scrapping professionally when he was seventeen. In 1896 he broke into the linelight by outpointing Joe Cans in a ffteenlround bout in New York. Jim Corbett acted as second for the native son, and Honest John Kelly was the referee. Corbett was confi- dent that Hawkins would become the lightweight champion but he fell down on the prediction. The bout, which was staged at the old Bohemian Sporting Club, was a remarkable ex- hibition, and the Californian won over the Baltimore darky by g. very narrow margin In the same year Hawkins lost to Owen zeig1er in eight rounds al San Francisco. It was in 1897, at Car son City, that Da1 broke 8. record by knocking out Martin Flaherty in Sour seconds. This record stood until 1902, when Bat Nelson put away Bill Ross Ter in two second at Harvey. III. By a strange coincidence. Malaehy Hogan was referee of both bout. and he made

ASK SHOPPERS NOT TO HOARD.
Department Stores Also Request wo-
 men Not to Return Goods.


 New York. Sept. 1e.-An appeal to women shoppers to do their part in making the business situation in New York easier has been sent out by the Department Store Education Associa- ton. There are two main things which women can do, they say-to continue to spend their money wisely instead of hoarding it and to make sure that they want a thing before they buy it, so that they will not re- turn goods.
 Don't hoard either money or sup plies, !" the statement suggests. Those who laid in a liberal supply of those were responsible in some eases for putting up the prices for every one else, especially for the poor, who cam not buy in large quantities.
 Don't hoard your money-that t would bring business to a standstill at once-but buy as usual within your means and pay your debts promptly. During the war it is particularly urg- ent that you pay your debts promptly because some peoples business will be SO hurt that they cannot pay their bills and also because credit has so broken down in Europe that the merchant must have cash for the purchase of imported goods and must have it at the moment when a ship has come in or am importers line is opened
 This brings us to our second sug- gestion.s If you knew the discourage. ment and loss due to the goods which have been sold but do not stay sold! It isn't a square deal We are sure many women would not be guilty of it an article. charged and sent and then have the wagon call for it they are in creasing the cost of that article to the store.,,.ss
