ZIBBY ARRIVES
SUNDAY FOR MIX
WITH J. STECHER
Polish Champion Now Training
in Maine and Reports He
Is in Condition of
Life.
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

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."

No Let Up Over State.
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

The graduating class of Central

Cross the fund usually used to buy
some sort of memorial to be left in

GLAD SHE HEEDED
FRIEIID'SADViCEl
SAYSHRS.pTE
Tanlac Builds Up Her Health'
and She Feels "ine Hiis-., ;,
band Now Taking the ; j
Medicine.
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. It enables the weak
disease-worn stomach to . digest its'
food thoroughly and convert, it Int . :
nourishment for blood,; bone and
muscle.
