AFTER GONG ENDS BOUT
Each ,of Twenty Rounds Is
Filled' Cram Full of Action,
From Gong to Gong,
By W. W. Naughton. ,
Ban Francisco, Cal.. Feb. 2. Twenty;
rounds and a draw for Ad Wolgast and
Harlem Tommy Murphy. But that does
not begin to tell the story, for thoie
wtm more action crowded Into each
three minute spell of fighting than 13
frequently seen In an entire coTitcst
There was some little hair-splitting
of course over Jim Griffin's verdict.
Boms thought that Murphy had shad
ed the Wildcat and others thought that
Wolgast bad done a little better tnan
, his adrersary. In the writer's opin
ion It would have been, a rank In
justice If Griffin had rendered any de
cision but th one he did.
Brimful as the game was of break
neck milling there was not a point
scored by either man that was not off
let by something accomplished by the
other. The fierceness of -Wolgast' s body
smashes was balanced by the stinging
blood-bringing Jolt with which the Har
lem boy peppered the other's face.
Tit for Tat.
Did a Murphy man recall the way
Tommy pinned Ad against the rope
and battered his head from side to side,
at the close of the eleventh round, he
was reminded of the fact that a Jarring
right uppercut caused Murphy's knees
to touch the floor near the end of the
fourteenth. J
To point to the manner in which Mur
phy had beaten Wolgast the latter
open-mouthed and bleeding across the
fighting space in the thirteenth,, was to
be asked to remember how In the very
same round Wolgast had Murphy top
pling ropeward from body punches.
And that was the way of it all
through. If one man gained a lead the
other drew level. Each of the youngsters
fought as he never fought before and
-in view of the way the tide of things
ebbed and flowed and the further fact
that there was not a clean knockdown
from gong to gong they were well en
titled to share the honors of a draw.
Ad Tries Old Trick.
The last round naturally was the
most exciting of the series. It may
be described as a three-minute scuffle
in which the lightweights laid on as
frequently and as fiercely as falling
condition would permit. Of the two Wol
gast was the more tired. With the round
two thirds gone and the belligerents
leaning against the wall of the ring
Ad resorted to an old ruse, with his
right arm concealed beneath Tommy's
left he grabbed the rope and held Mur
phy, prisoner, pummellog him the while
diligently with the left.
But Jim Griffith had been fooled that
way before and Wolgast was caught
in the act and his hand disengaged from
the hemp.
Gong Bounds on Deaf Ears.
Then with a gesticulating, bellowing
crowd standing erect and urging them
on Tommy and Ad battled bitterly un
til Official Timekeeper llartlng brought
his hammer down on the metal disk.
It was uppercuts from Murphy and

and they plnche'" each other so fiercely
that the gong sound fell on deaf ears.
Griffin had to tear them apart by
main force. And then he seized a Mur
phy glove and a Wolgast glove and
holaed them on high.
In the main the bout was a clash
between a couple of roosters who
pinned their faith to uppercuts. For
several rounds it looked as though Mur
phy was getting the better of things.
HakM .Muxphy Drop Guard.
Beginning with the tenth round Wol
gast changed his tactics. Instead of
centering. lila entire attention to poking
and Jabbing with his pestering oppo
nent he began to infuse force Into his
right hand deliveries. He sent Murphy
back with crashing rights that took the
Harlem youngster on the jaw. but it
was not the facers that enabled Wol
gast to even the score.
He set himself and smashed at Mur
phy's ribs and after a few of those
body punches had landed a dlBtlnct
change could be saen. Murphy's guard
drooped and his eyes seemed to go
farther back into his head.
There was a corresponding change on
WQlgast's appearance. From being the
under dog with a discouraging prospect
of being worn down he was transformed
to the main lead. He brightened and
became brighter still as the rounds

BROVN OF NEW YORK
Rivers Whip's Over Punch in
Tentli and Follows Up by
Murderous Blows,
By H. M. Walker.
Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 22. Little
"Knock-Out" Bt-own finished fiat on his
back "with his eyes closed and his toes
turned to the uky. A lily stuck in hi3
hands' would have completed a picture
guaranteed to bring Joy to the caloused
heart of a Tucson undertaker.
Joe Itivers, California's best fighting
man, done for the New York lightweight
in the tenth round of the scheduled Z0-
round match in the Vernon arena of tho
Pacific Athletic club. Brown was so
clearly knocked out that Referee Eyton
did not dignify the final scene by the
usual counting off system.
barly In the tenth Rivers cashed a
punch thut he already had tried for,
and missed aa many as ten or 12 times.
As Brown was backing away from a
clinch JoBeph whipped over a right.
snapping punch like the strike of a rat
tlesnake. His glove settled under the
Broadway boy'n chin and backwards
flopped Brown, his heels flying high In
the air.
Would Have Felled an Ox.
Tt was a terrible blow and would have
stopped a more durable man than Brown,
With his arms and lugs trembling under
his weight "Knock-Out" pulled himself
to an all-fours position and waited
while Kyton counted off nine seconds
coming to his feet on ten with no
more general Idea of his whereabouts
than that he was located somewhere
between San Pedro and Harlem.
Again Rivers proved he Is not the
coolest man in the ring. Kager to fin
lsh his victim, he rushed In and pum
meled Brown with a fusillade of aim
less blows. Another right reached
Brown's Jaw and again he tottered to
his knees. This time the beaten boy
was so far gone that he didn't take ad
vantage of the count but staggered to
a standing position, a helpless target
for the excited Mexican.
A second tima Rivers rushed in wild
fashion, carrying Brown far aoross the
ring. The right finally reached tho
battered Brown's chin and "Knock-Out''
went tumbling to the canvas.
Draws Glove Tight.
And now, Rivers righted himself.
While the referee was counting Joe
stepped back and put the wrist rim of
his right glove to his teeth, pulling the
knuckle covering tight for a finishing
smash. As Brown came up on the
count of "ten" Rivors feinted him until
his smeared Jaw stood out bare In the
sunlight
Another swish of the bronzed arm, a
thud as the Californlan's fist landed
under the ear and Brown was lifted
high off his feet, coming down to the
floor on his back without so much aS
a quiver of action remaining in his body.
Eyton stepped over for another count,
but seeing at a glance that the Brown
was "cold." He merely waved towards
Rivers in indication that the Atlantic
coast's toughest 133-potmder had failed
to find health in California.
Glutton for Punishment.
The only complaint we have to reg
ister against the loser is that he doesn't
know when he has had enough. Brown
is the original Berkshire Kid. He was
whipped in the third round but refused
to admit it. From this point until the
final bell in the seventh Brown stood
up under a continual batter of punish
ment that would have made the Nelson
of Goldfleld look like a piker for oluck.
In the eighth Brown, still as aggressive
as thought he hadn't taken an annoy
ing punch, out-slugged the Mexican.
From his corner Rivers signalled to
the press row that be had been stalling,
and what followed in the tenth would
seem to somewhat Justify this claim, al
though there is no doubt that Joe was
loth angry and worried at the way
Brown was hanging on to his Job.

at c0ffr0th arena
By Tommy Murphy. .
I think I should have had the
decision. At no time during the
battle did 1 feel as though I were
losing ground. However, I am
sure that Hcferee Griffin gave
the decision the way he saw it
and I have no complaint to make.
Wolgast Is a strong, fast fellow
and anyone is mistaken who
thinks that he is at the end of
his ropo as a boxer. I landed
many heavy blows on him and if
he had gone back to any special
degree he would not have lasted
twenty rounds with me. I do not
know what I will d0 next. Of
course I would like to get Ritch
ie, but I may take on Ad in a
return match if the inducements
are encouraging.

.Every one will agree with me
that I am more than a "dead
one" as some folks have tried
to make me bellove. I really
think that 1 had the better qf the
bout and te decision could have
been given to me. I am not kicking,-
however, and Referee Grif
fin's verdict is satisfactory. Yes.
I will fight Murphy again, but
I will have to think over the
Inducements first. I imly trained
about five days for the bout and
it was a fast one. With the
proper siege I think. I can knock
Murphy out, although I will
give Tommy credit for being a
Bpeed burner.

DID TOM JONES SUP
"DOUBLE CROSS" TO
KING OF PORTLAND?
Was our old frltnd Jack King,
ostensible trainer of Ad Wolgast,
given the XX. Jack went south
last Sunday night to take charge
of Wolgast's training camp, but
that Is the last heard of the
Portlander. None of the press
dispatches mentioned his name
and he did not follow Wolgast
into his comer yesterday after
noon at Daly City arena. Tom
Jones didn't treat King with any
undue cordiality when they met
here two weeks ago, and Jones
probably told Jack that his ser
vices were not needed since
Cherokee resumed his position
as dictator over Wolgast's af
fairs. Here's the only word from
King; a message to Ed ' Died
rlch yesterday morning.
"Place all yous money that
Wolgast will take second place
or better. Odds are 10 to 9. I
have not placed a dollar and
do not think I will. Am out
classed. They are too wise for
me. I will return to sell more
soap and water and let It go at
that.'

Judge McCredie Compromises.
Between Two factions
Players on "Chob Choo"
Baseball will start at 3:16' o'clock in
Portland during the 1913 season,
This decision was reached yesterday
afternoon between Judge McCredie, the .'
Portland magnate, and a delegation
from the banks and schools, who; were
unable to be on hand, at 3 o'clock to,
hear the umpire yell "play ball." The'
made such good representations to
Judge McCredie that he finally informed
them- that he would compromise be
tween 3 o'clock, the present hour of
starting, and 3:30, which wp.s the time
asked for by the visitors, appointing
3:15 o'clock. Fifteen minutes is an v
average ride to 24th and Vaughn street '
from the heart of the city, and it will
not be necessary to miss two innings '
as is now the case. , ";
Until the middle of 1911 the starting
time was set at 3:30 o'clock, but ft vot- .
lng contest showed that .the majority
of the fans desired the games to start'
at 3 o'clock and Judge McCredie acceded
to the general demand. There has, been
constant argument between the .' two -factions
and 3:15 o'clock was regarded
by those In authority as the pr'oper time. .
Next Thursday Manager McCredie, the
local baseball contingent and a trio
of war correspondents will leave for the
Vlsalia training camp on the "Midnight

party at Sacramento and will go over to
San Francisco to look after a little
business and have a talk with Harry
Krause, the southpaw turned over to
Portland by Toledo via Cleveland in
exchange for Dave Gregg. McCredie did
not state what the conversation wouU
be about but it is hardly believable that ,
Krause Is a holdout. He probably wants
to remain in San Francisco for a spell on
account of the arrival of the new little i
