' " i' : - ..V i IMfri. ,--:H,iA i-;:'v Owen Moran, A tribute to Battling Nelson, a defl to Ad Wolgust and a few words to the whe were the sum and substance of tho visit of Owen Moran lu Chicago the other day. The clever Briton, the man who scored the first and only real knockout over the one-time dur able Dane, tarried between trains en route for New York nnd fresh from his decisive triumphs on the coast. Despite his sudden leap to fame and fortune, Moran lacked the supreme confidence which usually follows In the wake of unlooked-for victories. Moran had nothing but praise for Nelson and cited a case to show the indomitable courage of the veteran lightweight. During the fight, when Nelson began to weaken, Moran claims he saw the final downfall of the Battler, and In the eleventh round, when the Dane was on his knees more than half the time, Moran implored Mm to quit, but the former champion came back for more. "He would not stay down," said Moran In his own Inimitable way, "and Just before the count I merely pushed him over. It was not even a weak punch, but his strength was NOTED ATHLETES AT CHICAGO Martin Sheridan, Matt McGrath, Mel Vln Sheppard, Flanagan and Oth ers at Windy City.

Moran gives a good part of the glory of his victory to his trainer, Jeff Per ry, who vies with Billy Delaney for successive victories. Berry's latest score was In Morun's corner during tho Nelson engagement, and he claims his next will be when' ho is advising the little Englishman when Wolgast is the other man. Perry trained Nelson for both fights when he whipped Gans and broke the fighting spirit of the now deceased old master. IU' then went to Wolgast and was In the cor ner of the Michigan wildcat when Nel son received his defeat at Point Rich mond last Febraury. Moran is now looking longingly toward the lightweight crown, and un til the opportunity to grasp it arrives he will shy clear of the fight game. A battle with Wolgast is the only thing that Moran will consider now, and he will camp on tho trail of the title-holder until his wants are grant ed. Time can raise no barriers to the aspirations of the clever boxer, and if necessary he will wait a year until the champion's arm heals. best athletes for the competition. In New Orleans the cause of athletics was given a big boost by the cham pionships of tho A. A. U. recently held there. The committee expects sev eral of these southern athletes to ap pear as the southerners remember that the Chicago athletes that com peted there practically "made" their meet. The manner in which the Irish Americans among the leaders being A. J. Sheridan, John T. Cahill and J. J. Mahoney, have assumed control of athhletics the last season has done a great deal to boom the cause in the middle west.
