			The pitcher went to the well once too often. Chalky Wright, 36, veteran of 120 recorded ring battles, was knocked out by Willie Pep, featherweight champion of the world, at the Auditorium Wednesday night after 1 minute and 5 seconds of the third round. Wright, who formerly held the title, announced his retirement a few minutes later in the dressing.

			Pep was magnificent; Wright was futile. The champion's speed of foot enabled him to move in and out at will. His jab flicked out like a snake's tongue, setting up Chalky for hooks and an occasional right hand. From the outset, it was apparent that Willie was after a knockout. Wright knew it and tried to land a pay-off punch himself.

			The champion rode in on a succession of fast jabs in the first round and shot a hard right for the chin, which missed. Wright let go a hook so hard that when it missed he spun clear around. Pep beat a tattoo with his jab and then got in close. Pep held on tight and let the referee separate them.
