WoLGAsT MOST SMASHED UP
 ATHLETE TniS COUNTRY SEEN

Announcement of the intention of Ad Wolgast to return to the ring brings to mind the fact that he shares with one other figure in sport the distinction of having been the most smashed up athlete this country has ever seen. Foxhall Keene in his ca reer as polo player cross country rider and gentleman jockey had more bones broken than he had fingers and toes. Wolgast, once lightweight champion and rattling good one, in addition to his, injuries. suffered an attack of insanity and was interned in a sanatorium for a long time. Any promoter who would put him in ring now deserves to be- censured. The list of casualties in Wolgast S stormy voyage through sportdom fol- lows:
 1906-Left ear caulifowered.
 1907-Right ear caulifiowered.
 190S-Bones broken in both hands and one sknuckle out of joint.
 190s-Bridge of nose broken, neces- sitat:ng surgical operation.
 1910-Left arm broken in bout with Jack Redmond and left arm broken In match with Tommy Mcfarland.
 1S11-Stricken with appendicitis on eve of bout with Freddie Welsh. That gave Ritchie the chance to substi- ute. Ritchie made good, became a topnotcher and eventually took the ti- tie from Wolgast.
 1912-Bones of both hands broken again.
 191S-Suffered serious attack of pto- ] maine poisoning. Ribs cracked ir bout with sparring partner. 1918-Right hand broken in bout with Freddie Welsh. Left hand brok-

EASTERN RACING TO OPEN

No horse racing on any track in America is a turf condition which will confront followers of the sport for the next two days.

BOXING NOTES.

One of the recent arrivals from England $ Fred Jacks, one time featherweisht champion. Jacks de- feated Fancy Lee, who once de- feated Jimmy Wilde. Jacks is said to be a second edition of Jem Dris- coll. He weighs 124 pounds and is ready to tackle any one weighing under 1SO pounds.
 The first offer to be made to an opponent other than Jack Demp- sey comes from Frank O'Brien of the National A C., of Philadelphia. O'Brien has offered the Frenchman $20,000 for six rounds with Mike E0'Dowd, the middleweight champion. Carpenter fought many a hard bat tie for a small fraction of s2o.00O, but money is coming so fast these days that he did not give the Phil adelphia offer a.ly attention.
 The number of foreign boxers in this country never was so great as at the present time. Lured by the big purses offered in this land of the free, Eupropean knights of the padded mitt are f1ocking to these shores in droves. Among the most prominent of those now here are Georges Carpenter, heavyweight champion of Europe; Jimmy Wilde, l nyWelght champion of the world ! Johnny Sheppard, lightweight; Fred Jacks, featherweight; Boy Mccormick. light heavyweiht; ! Corporal Blumenfield, middle weight and Tommy Holt, a bantam Lew Edwards, who recently left tc
