This anneara to be the! year of rejuvenation In no far ai whilom ring champions are con-S oornod.i First we had Johnny Coulon'a? pronounelamcnto that .htf was going' fcack to hi bantamweight title; nowl wo have Ad WolBaat treadlns the pathi back t the lightweight throne. I .fThej Michigan WUdca.t" has his I plans already, perfected, and it only ' retnaina for him to execute tham as he ' arranged In his own mind for him to' rach onco more the crest of the light- ; weight; wave, t .. Wolgaat has mapped out a revence ' campaign. Ills first roiirs is to thrash Willie Ritchie ho soundly as to dispel Whatever doubt thore cxlttted tn any one's mind of Ad Yolgast's superior ity ovir Willie Ritchie. It is hard to convince the little Adolph that he Should know better titan to tamper with Ritchie again, but the Cadillac fljrhtlncf machine is, an obstinate party and he will have the satlufaotlon of embroiling Itltchio even If it costs him money. , Wolgast and Kltlchle have had It out In- the; ring' no- leuM than three times. Their first meeting occurred on May 11, 1912, a four round affair on the coast, arid Wolgast's animosity toward the Ritchie person dates back that far. - - ; So KouglUMBa Allowed. -. At the time, Wolgatst was the auto crat of the 133 pounders. While nitchle was unknown and unschooled in the mysteries of the ring. Ad was then re cuperating from an appendicitis oper ation, (uid took on Ritchie with'the un derstandlng that no rough was to be Indulged in by either side during the four rounds. The abbreviated melee was.tp serve as a try-out for the con valescing Wolgast. f- Ritchie, however, awed by the pros-peet- of fighting a world's champion, became flighty and evidently forgot (ho arrangement when he squared off with Wolgast in the arena. Willie fought desperately from the first tap of the gonff. and the mut;h chagrined chajnp!lon beat a hasty retreat oefore the furious onslaught of the newcomer. Jfl-the second round Ritchie floored Vtr'olgaat with a resounding thump On the law. Wolgast later admitted it (was tho. hardest blow he had ever re- ctivra ui nu Drier dui oriinant career. le-TBut Xhe Inexperienced Ritchie, wiith a world s championship, and several hundred thousand dollars In his grasp, falledi to pursue the advantage, and de ferred his chances of winning glory until islx months after. Wolgast Kegalaa Canning. Wolgast fought with his old vim and cunning in the last two rounds, floor ing Ritchie three times In the third. Wolgtat was silent anent, his poor showing In this bout until a few days ago,.1 when he let It be known that Ritchie had "double-crossed" him. in tlhat short engagement. 1 Rltfhie's so-called duplicity rankled tn Ads mind for months and It was with a View of securing sweet revenge that '!he signed to battle Ritchie for 'the Championship of November 28, 1P12. The title changed owners in the struggle,- Ritchie being adjudged the winner - on a foul in the sixteenth round. It was the first time in ring ' history that a boxer lying prone was . Awarded a world a title. I' Stripped of his championship, robbed Of hs drawing power, Wolgast was not discouraged. He atlll Insisted that he aa- Ritchie's master and was still eager to prove it. So last March he engineered his third meeting with Rltcb.10 before Frank Mulkern's Mil- taukee club. The receipts totalled !6.000 and Wolgast absorbed a ter rific beating. But Ritchie was awake every second that he was. in a battle. Yet Wolgast will not admit he is an Inferior fighter to Ritchie. He has set about a fourth entanglement with the 'American lightweight champion, aind fssures Ritchie that they will surely draw a $10,000 house if they fight figaln, which merely shows to what ex treme Wolgast will go In order to In Velgle Ritchie into another conflict. P Alter Ritchie, White and Welsh ; find agaln a worlds champion. That la Wolzast's dream. I .' Earning Power X Unlimited. " The earning power of a -pugilistic champion is unlimited if said champion ,i capable of defending his laurels for any extended spell of time. Take Wil lie Ritchie for example. When Willie was the lightweight peer, after de- throning .Wolgast. he fought six real battles, including the one with Welsh, ; the latter bout costing him the title, j In this half dosen exhibitions, Ritchie's i Share amounted to $95,500 and added , to this, during the period, was $35,000 for theatrical work. The following list ; shows what Ritchie received for each bout: ioe Rivers .....$ 19.000 each Cross 8.600 Ad Wolgast 18.000 j. . i T r .i j Dinmy siuruny . . . . ........ i i Charley White 10.000 Freddie Welsh 25.0tf 0 r; v'": " $ 97.500 Theatrical work ,$ 35.000 ; Crand total ..$132,500 ..iWelnh, since , ascending the light weight pinnacle,, which - was Just six months ago, has cleared over $50,000 tfc-f which about $18,000 was earned on H .ID 17. , ' y : i -.'
