WOLGA5T FACES
LUNACI BOARD

LOS ANGELES, Sept. IA. D.
Wolgast, former lightweight cham
pion of the world, will emerge from
obscurity to face strange audience
here next Tuesday. On that date
he will appear before the county
lunacy commission.
Friends Of Wolgast say he .is
punch goofy," as a result Of the
terrific beatings he took in the daye
Of his prime. OF late, it Is said,
Wolgast has been living in the
shadows Of his old glory. He had
been training vigorously under the
delusion he was slated for q return
match with Joe Rivers.
It was in 1919 that Swolgast
fought his famous fight with the
Mexican lightweight. Both fighters
were knocked out, the decision go
ing to Wolgast. This and other
fights, notably his around affair
with Battling Nelson, is believed
to have affected his mind.
Wolgast is only 80 years old.
Since 1922 he has been the ward
OF Jack Doyle, boxing promoter.
The sporting fraternity OF Los
Angeles is heartsick over the vete.
ran fighters condition.

PACK
CAMP

CHICAGO, Sept. Jack Demp.
sey's popularity was reflected today
IN an announcement OF the Chicago
and Eastern Illinois Railroad that
two special trains, starting Satur-
day. would be put on to accon1mo-
date the crowds that flock to Delnp-
sey's Lincoln Fields training camp.
Between two and three thousand
spectators have been watching the
ex-charnp's daily workouts for his
comeback" bout with Gene Tun.
ney. The attendance Is expected
to grow as the fight date draws
nearer.
Dempsey's ring exhibitions
against sparrfng mates are the
big attraction. Yesterday $500
fans saw him step through four
fast rounds with as many diff.
ferent partners. The general
impression is. that Jack Is in
good physical condition and fast
rounding into shape for the big
fight.
his IlHSC opponent was Dutch
Meisner, who admitted after Demp-
sey noored him that he had not
boxed for four years. Dutch was
out on his feet at the end Of the
round. When 1t was all over, Leo
Flynn asked the dazed Meisner
what he did for a living.
II work in a brick yard In South
Chicago" said Dutch.
well, you better go back to
work" said Flynn kindly, paying
him off.
Jack Mccain, Of st. Paul,
was next to face the Manassas
nlan-mauIer. But Dempsey
found McCann wen able to take
care of himself. In fact there
were many present who believed
the st. Paul battler held a
slight shade over Dempsey at
the end of their session.
Then came = round each with
Benny Kruger, the German fighter,
and Osk Till, Of Rochester, N. Y.
Dempsey acquitted himself well
against both. He took q few on the
jaw at long range but was superior
at infighting.
The usual routine Of roadwork,
bag punching ana rope skipping
completed the days workout. Prac.
tically the same program Is on the
card for today.

liminary training period and he

A large crowd greeted the cham.
pion's farewell appearance in his
training ring yesterday afternoon.
Virgins gave Tunney one OF the
best workouts he has had since he
has been up here, rushing Gene in
real Dempsey fashion and causing
the champion to extend himself to
keep out Of the way.
Gene, however, showed himself
well able to take care of the
heavier mans roughing and slowed
him up considerably in the last
round with lefts and rights to the
body and right hooks to the head.
Virgins was bleeding badly when
he left the ring.
This morning Tunney did nine
miles on the road. Tonight he

Four clubs rushing for the wire
almost abreast and September, that
old do or die month of all base
ball races, beginning today. There
Is really no choice, but the right
one, which can be selected with
great accuracy after it Is all over.
But the schedule favors Pitts
burgh!
At the same time, it places an
unusual burden on the already
Overburdened Chicago Cubs and
In 3 slightly lesser sense upon
the st. Louis Cardinals. The
Giants, touring the hostile West,
between September 8 and "a In
elusive, are not facing any easy
cinch. as the fellow said.
But the Cubs must take the real
slap within the next fifteen days.
That Is, they must take it or leave
It and, IL it is the latter, the stuff
will be off like a hat in church.
Having played 1898 baseball
through the East and having Just
dropped three straight ball games
to the Giants, the Cubs now viii
be asked to do the following:
Play the Pirates In Pitts
burgh today; play three games
this week with the Cardinals
in Chicago: play three more .
with the Cardinals In st. Louis
and then take the Giants for q
big series in Chicago.
The Cubs and Cards, in brief,
are hooked up in at least six
games in the next eight days and
must meet at least eight times be.
fore the end Of the season. There,
naturally. il not burst Of wild
acclaim ernanating from st. Louis
over this fact, either, but then the
Cards will draw something Of q
breather before their New York
series, while the Cubs win draw
funny pictures on the wall IL 1t
doesn't all stop soon.
Having virtually broken even
ON their season to date it may
be that neither the Cubs nor
the Cards will lose by these
games. Unfortunately this il
not the time when . team can
afford to stand still. For while
they are locked In their own
embrace, the Pirates win be
playing Cincinnati and the
Giants win be daIIying with
the Phillies and Braves.
If you think this means nothing,
consider the fact that the Pirates,
to date, have beaten the Reds ex-
actly II out Of IL times, while the
Giants have taken 9 out OF is from
the Phils and Is out Of 10 from
the Braves.
