Wladek Zbysiko, the Polish cham pion who will wrestle Joe Stecher of Dodge, Neb., at the Omaha, audi torium next Tuesday night, will arrive in Omaha Sunday, according to a tele gram received by Promoter Carl Marfisi from Jack Curley, his man er will not be a two-honr draw, but a clean-cut victory for Zbyszko. Pre pare to give us the long end of the gate and. that $1,500 bonus for two falls." i Zbyszko now is in training at his summer home at Old Orchard, Me., Curley wired. He has been working every day," recited the Curley mes sage, "and he is in the greatest condi tion of his life. He is prepared for the match of his career and I am confident that, this match with Stech ager. , ' If the Tuesday night match re sults in. a draw it will be good night for the wrestlers, according to Mar- nsi. Their end ot the gate will go to war charities, according to Carl. . Muat Be Decision. "I'm promoting this match and I'm going to have something to say about it," said Marfisi. "The time limit is two hours and 30 minutes. It s a dead certain cinch there will be a fall if they wrestle. If the, match is a decisionless affair, it's an equally dead certain cinch it's their own fault. And they'll not collect a penny frbra me. I'll give all of their end to the Red Cross and Young Men's Christian as sociation and Knights of Columbus war funds, So I guess they'll wrestle all rig!V. when this has been im pressed upon their minds."'

NEW DRAFT LAW IIEAW BLOW TO NATIONAL GAME May Take 80 Per Cent of Play ers in Major Leagues; West ern Would Lose About 20 Men. Washington, May 23. The War department issued a statement re garding base ball players and other professional sportsmen, which read: "No ruling as to whether base ball players or persons engaged in golf, tennis or anv other sport, come un der the regulations regarding idlers and nonessential pursuits will be made until a specific case has been appealed to the provost marshal gen eral's office." May Have to Close Parks. - Pittsburgh, Pa., May 23. "Every thing must be done to win the war," said President John L. Tener today upon learning of the new order of Provost Marshal General Crowder, "and if base ball is a' sport, as classi fied in this new order, and not a business in which there is a great inestment of money, then base ball will not be behind other interests in contributing its part toward winning the war." Would Take Majority of Players. New York, May 23. Officials of the local major league base ball clubs were loath to express opinions today regarding the effect of a possible draft ing of their players for essential war work. It was estimated that if the rule to draft base ball players of the Na tional and American Leagues were strictly enforced it would take from 70 to 80 per cent of tht present per sonnel wunra ncavier- percentage in the minor 'leagues. w ,. .. ' Disastrous ' at" Chicago. ; Chicago, May 23. Enlistment of General Crowder's order would, it is said, wreck the. two major league baseball clubs of Chicago. -All the players . of both . teams except four are of draft age. -- Comply Gladly, Says Dickerson. Kansas City. Mo., Mav 23. "A most drastic order, said E. W. Dickerson, president of the Western league, "but of course we shall comply and gladly. The Western league would not lose more than 20 players at the most, as 44 are already in the service. " "It is a blow to base ball," said President Muehlebach of the Kansas City American association club. "There is only one thine to do, how ever, and that is to obey the govern, ment's mandate. Practically our tw tire team will be hit." - Texas League Hard Hit. Dallas, Tex., May 23. A poll of the Texas league clubs shows that no club will have even the nucleus of a base ball team if men between the ages of 21 and 31 are barred from playing after July 1. The Fort Worth team, the league leader, has but two players over the draft age. Dallas has but one. May End Racing. Louisville, Ky., May 23. Persons connected with race tracks at Church ill Downs and Douglas park, two fo the largest racing plants in the coun try, were frank, to say they did not know what effect the amendment to the selective service regulations would have on racing interests. v General W. B. Haldeman of Louis ville, a member of the State Racing commission, would discuss it only from the angle that the Red Cross fund of $300,000 guaranteed by Ken tucky racing associations might be imperiled. "However," General Haldeman said, "direct war work is the duty of every man and the government is the only proper judge of whether a man is a non-producer and whether he is more needed in the draft than in any-other occupation." New York, May 23.

The state drive continues with un-, abated vigor. Nearly all the counties in thet eastern half of the state are already "over the top" and are marked with red pins on Chairman Judson's state map. , Subscription returns in western counties are slower in being tabulated because the means of com munication are fewer. State Chairman Judson says he has every reason to believe that the state will go above its quota in this drive as it has never gone before. Up to the present state headquarters here has received and tabulated a total of $676,600.13 from counties outside of Douglas county. And all 'of this is cash, pledgee being not included. 4 Drive On Until Monday. . Chairmen for both state and city, however, emphasize the fact that the drive is to continue until Monday, regardless of being over the top. The object is to get every dollar possible. The traveling salesmen of Omaha will start out. Friday morning to can vass the smaller retail stores for the Red Cross. Employes Contribute. Thirty-six employes of the Skinner Manufacturing company contributed a day's pay each. The Baker Ice Machine company employes gave $508. The Union Pacific employes raised $9,500. Of this amount $2,371 came from, the shops, where the young women in overalls did the collecting.

Still another link is added to the long chain of evidence regarding the merits of Tanlac. Mrs. Charles L. White, who resides at 4216 South Seventeenth street, says: "Tanlac has made me feel like a' different woman and I am glad for , avarvnnn ti know what a rood medi?? cine I think it is. I have had a spell of lagrippe every winter for a gopd . many years. For the past five win-, ters, especially, these spells have been extremely bad and always left me in a very weakened condition..-; r was constantly coughing and suf f ered from loss of appetite, nervousness and frequent headaches. I was trou-, bled a great deal after eating by the gaa which formed on my stomach, pressing on my heart. I have been in ' such a bad condition all the past year that I couldn't do any of my work. I fell off from one hundred and eighteen pounds to one hundred and five and nothing I did seemed to help me. ' -':;,; - "Finally a friend persauded Tne to try Tanlac and now I can tell every body, from my own experience,' that it's just fine. I'm certainly glad I heeded her advice, for I began to mend while taking the first bottle.' My appetite picked up and with it came an increase in strength and a letting up of the headaches. I seldom have a headache now and the cough . has improved so much that I believe it will soon be gone for good. . I have just finished my second bottle and am going to take more, but I have,' already been built up wonderfully. ., I sleep better, get more pleasure; out of eating and am picking up weight right along. My husband is now tak- lng Tanlac for stomach trouble' and it's helping him fine, and several of my neighbors are also taking it, all on account of what it has done for me." . - -' r i Mrs. White's trouble was relieved 1 by Tanlac simply because it toned up her vital organs and enabled hertl digest her food properly. Lagrlppa f most invariably leaves the body in 1 a weakened condition, which oftatv if too long neglected, develops into incurable afflictions. Tanlac is found to be the direct remedy in all such1 cues, for there is not a single portion of the body that is not benefited by its helpful action. It bee ifa'f.u? by strengthening the digestive and assimilative organs, therebv enrf r. ing the blood and invigorating the1 : entire system.
