Taylor May Take
Stecher's Place in
Bout With Plestina
Pete Loch, rnanager of Marin
Plestina, the big Omaha heavyweight,
is trying to make arrangements to
substitute Jack Taylor of Lincoln,
former Canadian' champion, for Joe
Stecher, who was scheduled to meet
Plestina here April 27.
Just before the Stecher-Caddock
match Stecher agreed to wrestle Ples
tina in Omaha April 27 and Loch
even went so far as to engage the
Auditorium for that night. When
Stecher lost he called the bout off,
even though Loch and Plestina were
willing to go through with it.
Then Loch approached Earl Cad
dock, but could not come to an agree
ment with the new champ.
But Taylor, it is believed, will meet
Plestina. These grapplers were
matched once before, but a hitch
came in the agreement and it was
called off. This time it is thought
they will be brought together.
Plestina is Omaha's best bet. Tay
lor is Lincoln's entrant for the cham
pionship and together they repre
sent Nebraska's challengers since
Stecher was vanquished. Both Ples
tina and Taylor stand ready to meet
Caddock. Both have challenged him.
A match between the, two would be
a good elimination contest.
Chris Jordan Matched
To Battle Fred Kramer
The bigger they are the harder they
fall. Thus quoth Chris Jordan,
Omaha's representative among the
158-pound wrestlers, yesterday when
he announced he had been matched
to wrestle Fred Kramer, who only
weighs 185 pounds, at Fullerton,
eli., for $100 a side. The twenty
five or thirty pounds he gives away
in weight fails to bother Jordan in
the least and he declares he will put
the fixings to Mr. Kramer.
Jordan is these days finding him
self in the same plight other wres
tlers who are just a little bit too
good are finding themselves. He
can't get any middleweights to meet
him and has to go out of his class
to get matches.
Oscar Vitt, Detroit Star
Infielder, is Suspended
Detroit,' Mich., April 11. Oscar
Vitt, star third baseman of the De
troit Americans, who declined to sign
his 1917 contract because of salary
differences, was automatically sus
pended today. Suspension was the
result of his failure to report to Man
ager Jennings before the opening
game.
It is understood that President
Navin offered Vitt an increase in sal
ary, but that the infielder demanded
a much larger sum. It has been ru
mored that Vitt will soon come to
Detroit from his home in California
to discuss his disagreement with Mr.
Navin.
"Bobby" Jones will play third base,
at least temporarily.

Stecher Had More
Than Time Enough
To Return to Ring
That Joe Steelier was allowed from ,
iwenty-three to twenty-five minutes at
least in which to return to the ring
for the third and deciding fall in his
match with Earl Caddock, is the as
sertion made by Bert Murphy, who
officiated as timekeeper and kept the
clock on the rest period.
Following the award of the bout
and the championship to Earl Cad
dock, reports that Stecher was only
given seven minutes to return began
to circulate. It was said that seven
minutes after Caddock had touched
Stecher's shoulders (o the mat for
the second fall, that Gotch and Cad
dock supporters called upon the
referee to give the bout to the Iowan
because Stecher had not appeared,
and that the referee did it.
The report gained circulation
quickly and was heard on all sides
Murphy declares it was eighteen
minutes, three minutes longer than the
allotted period, before the timekeep
ers notified the referee that the rest
period was up. Then it was five or
six minutes at least before Sherman
awarded the bout.
Somebody asked us to call the
period up at twelve minutes," said
Murphy, "but we refused. We didn't
even call it at fifteen minutes, but
waited until eighteen minutes were
up. It was at least five or six min
utes after that, making u total time
of twenty-three to twenty-five min
utes, before the referee awarded the
match. Gene Melady said to give
Stecher all night to come out again if
he wanted it, but we wanted to stick
to the rules, so we told the referee
at the end of eighteen minutes."

EUMATISM
CAN NOT
By Rubbing with Lini
ments and Ointments
If you are one of the many
thousand victims of torturing
Rheumatism, make up your
mind today that you will aban
don your efforts to rub the dis
ease away with liniments, lo
tions, ointments and local ap
plications. Such treatment by
itself is not only futile and de
void of results, but is a waste of
time, during which the disease
is getting a firmer hold on your
system.
Rheumatism is a stubborn
disease. It is not on the sur
face, therefore you must not
expect to be able to cure it with
remedies applied to the sur
face. No one ever yet effected
a permanent cure in this way,
so why should you continue to
suffer while relying upon treat
ment that has failed in thou
sands of cases?
The experience of others af
flicted with Rheumatism is
your best guide, and by follow
ing their advice you can not
only save yourself untold suf
fering, but rid yourself of a
disease that will eventually
wreck your body and leave you
helpless. Almost every victim
of Rheumatism has practically
the same experience. They are
so impressed with the pains and
sultenng of the disease, and
are so anxious to get rid of
them that they have treated
the pains alone, and overlook
ed their cause. They have rub
bed with liniments, lotions and
ointments in an effort to get
temporary relief, with no
chance of doing themselves
any permanent good.

Mr. Caspus Bibb, of 2424 Tenth
Ave., Bessemer, Ala., who
writes to tell how he found re
lief from this terrible afflic

Chicago, April 11, Speculation in

may deal direct with shippers as in
dividuals, but the action of the board
will, it is said, practically eliminate
speculation.

BE CURED
"A few years ago 1 suffered from a
a.vsre attack of articular Rheumatism
that rendered ma almost helpless. By
tha use of ths usual axtsmal remedies
I was abla to eheek tha pain aomswhat,
but did not regain the full naa of my
limbs, and on cloudy daya or when ax
pused to dsmpness or cold I would Im
mediately auffer from atlff and aching
joints. I began to take 8. S. S. and all
symptoms st onrs began to disappear,
until now I have no fear of exposure to
ths worst sort of wssther. 1 fsel It my
duty to recommend 8. 8. 8. to all who
wleh to free themselves from tha tor
turing clutches of Rheumatism."
Any physician will" tell you
that Rheumatism is a deep
seated blood disease. The pain
is not the disease itself, but
merely a symptom nature's
warning to you that you have
been attacked. The only intel
ligent treatment, therefore, is
through the blood; treatment
directed toward eliminating the
disease germs from the blood.
For years nearly all the pre
scriptions used by the medical
profession were those contain
ing iodide of potash or mer
curial substances, but in nearly
every case these minerals are
more injurious to the system
than the disease itself.
One reason why S. S. S. is so
successful in the treatment of
Rheumatism and other blood
disorders is the fact that it is a
purely vegetable remedy, being
made from roots and herbs
gathered direct from the for
ests. It contains not a particle
of mineral substance, and acts
by driving all disease germs
from the blood and cleansing it
of all impurities. S. S. S. has
been on the market for fifty
years, and every druggist has
sold it ever since he has been in
business. It is sold under an
absolute guarantee that it is
purely vegetable.
Our medical department is
maintained for the benefit of
the. afflicted, and if you will
write fully about your case you
will be given complete advice
as to the treatment necessary
for your individual case, for
which no charge is made. Ad
