WOlgast May Fight i'm Reno

Solly Salvador, the Sacramento
lightweight, will fight AID Wolgast,
former lightweight champion, at
Reno on July 4 if present plans
carry. Johnny Hagan, Salvador's
former manager, who is now a
fight promoter at Reno, expects TO
sign Wolgast, who is now in the
middle west. for a 1O-round bout
with the Sacramento boy. Three
years ago Salvador toured the
northwest and Canada with VOL
CAST as his sparring partner, and
the fact that he is now considered
a good match for the former
champion is considered to be an
instance illustrating the extent to
which the Michigan wild cat has
gone back.

MYSTERY is CLEARED

While hunting. a party oi

until inquiries brought the infor-

in past years did not take the
trouble to bury their dead, but
