Aniericus Breaks an
Ankle in Wrestling
Match With Lewis
Baltimore, Md., April 19. (Special
Telegram.) Last night misfortune
for Americus blocked his chance for
wrestling honors. For one hour and
:orty-eight minutes he outwrestled
"Strangler" Lewis of Kentucky.
The match was most gruesome as
well as scientific. Both men tore away
at each other and the end seemed cer
tain, at any moment. After one hour
and thirty-five minutes Americus
raised Lewis with a crotch lift and
amidjclieers that could be heard for a
block the first fall seemed assured.
While in the air Lewis foughtdes
perately, causing the local pride to
stumble, which resulted in both men
falling in a heap. The ankle of Amer
icus could be heard to snap by those
close to the ring. As both men took
a standing position it could be no
ticed that Gus was dragging his left
leg. , He, however, continued and
after fourteen minute- of excruciating
pain his seconds, after a conference,
threw in the towel. Not until four
physicians, including' Dr. Roller, as
sured him that to continue would
mean a compound fracture did Amer
y icus decide to quit.

Philadelphia's defeat in the second
game was due to ererors, which nulli
fied the good pitching of Oeschger.
He allowed only five hits. Each of
Boston's runs was caused by a mis-
play, stock s poor throw on Massey s
bounder in the eighth allowed Gowdy
and Maranvitle to score, breakinar a
2 to 2 tie. Barnes was in good pitch
