FREBERG-PESEIC
BOUT TO BE REAL
FINISHMATGH
No Time Limit of Any Kind
on This Event; Ecklund
and Sauers Meet
in Semi. ,
When John Pesek and John Fre
berg go on the mat Friday night for
their finish match, they will under
stand that it must be a genuine fin
Ish match with no time limit. When
Promoter Jack Lewis first talked
the match over with the managers
of the men, he stated that he was not
in a favor of time limits on wrest
ling bouts staged in Omaha and if
he could help it or had anything to
do with it none of them would be
put on in the Gate City.
The Omaha mat fans expect to see
one of the greatest wrestling
matches ever staged here, and there
is every indication that it will prove
up to expectations. Pesek has been
tried by some of the best and he has
proved himself each time. Freberg
is about the last of the trial horses
they will send the Shelton farmer
.against, if the Swede can be termed
a trial horse after hisx sensational
'match with Strangler Lewis at
Springfield a short time ago. In
that match, though his favorite toe
hold was barred, he showed himself
. an even better man than Lewis, in
the early stages of the bout. He had
no trouble in breaking the Strang
ler's famous headlok a number of
times and in the end, won the first
fall with this grip himself.
Pesek Also Likes Toe Grip.
The Swede champion is not alone
in this match with the toe hold for
a favorite, for Pesek places great
faith in this grip himself. He used
it to win both falls in his recent
match with Steve Savage. That Fre
berg is a great deal better man than
Savege, Pesek is willing to concede,
, . but the Scandinavian's great reputa
tion has no terrors for him and he
says he will win this match as easily
as any of the others, as he is in the
best condition of his entire career. If
he does beat Freberg, Mart Slattery,
his manager, will try to secure a
match with Joe Stecher'as soon as
vthe Dodge lad says he is ready to
Nvrestle again. t
The Pesek-Freberg match, while
billed as the main event, is by no
means the only attraction for Fri
day night's show". The semi-windup
and preliminary are both star bouts,
each contestant having appeared at
one time or another as the main
event performer. The semi'will bring
Clarence Ecklund, light heavyweight
champion of the world into the
ring with George Sauers of Cheney,
Neb. All the Omaha fans know Eck
lund without any further introduc
tion. Sauers hasn't appeared in
Omaha recently, but-he has trimmed
every heavyweight in the state. that
v lie ha met.
1 Stangl in Preliminary. ,
In the preliminary, the 19-year-bld
strong boy, Joe Stangl, will mix
grips with Ben Zerson, the York
county champion. Stangl came into
immediate prominence by beating
Big Bill Dristy in the semi-windup
at the last big show here, when Pe
sek defeated Steve Savage. Zerson
is another crack man from out in the
state. He has made a record among
the light heavy wrestlers that
brought him to such a point that no
one could be found to meet him out
side of Omaha. The Stangl match
is the result.
The show will be staged at pop
ular prices, no seat priced higher
than $2 and over half of the seats
at $1. It is a real all-star bill at $1
and $2, something that has not been
shown in Omaha for many moons.

AttendN. B. F. Meeting
Recreation Director J. J. Isaacson
has been invited by the officials of
the National Base Ball federation to
attend the big sandlot conference at
the William Penn hotel in Pitts
burgh Monday, March 24, to outline
the local plan for the conduct and
promotion of both the so-called
amateur and semi-professional base
ball divisions of sandlot base ball
The conference has been cajled.to
establish a standard code of eligi
bility rules and regulations for both
the so-called amateur and semi-pro
fessional classifications of sandlot
base ball. This lack of a standard
code has prevented the more rapid
extension of the sport in many parts
or the country and has otten result
ed in much dissatisfaction when in
ter-city championship series have
been arranged for.
Many leading recreation wc!:ers
and others interested in the develop
ment of sandlot base ball have ar
ranged to attend the Pittsburgh
conference and hope also to effect
a merger of all organizations now
enneavorfng in this and that section
of the country to promote amateur
or semi-professional base ball.
President John A. Heydler of the
National league, President Ban
Johnson of the American league and
Secretary John H. fcarrell of the
National Association of Minor
Leagues have asked that the sand
lotters adopt a rule barring all play
ers under contract, reserveor sus
pension to professional league clubs.
Sheriff William S. Haddock of
Pittsburgh, president of the Alle
gheny Mountain association of the
Amateur Athletic union, and treas
urer of the United States Soccer
Foot Ball association, is bead of the
organization that meets March 24.

OW that the kaiser is back in
safe for dumbocracy, the world has settled back to feeding the
canary and wondering if mixing up .the contents of three two per
cent bottles will give you a six per cent concoction, mathematically
chirping, three times two are six, but. somehow, the guy who invented
the adding machine left the kick out.
The war bumped an awful dent in afternoon teas, dancing and other
essential industries. Ukulele garages were buttoned up to the ears and
the tango sniffers and dancing dopes flatfooted it for the draft-proof
cellars. But since the war groundhog failed to lamp his shadow this year,
they have all popped out and are at the old stand with a new line'of
peanuts.
Dancing is clattering along on all four cylinders again. The mucilage
and glue parlors are traveling faster than ever. Maybe it's because they
are going downhill. The momentum is always swifter going down
and out.
The latest rash to bust out in the hoofing epidemic is labelled the
Larumba Shiver. It's an artistic piece of heel shaking, if you say it
quick and don't stop to think what you are talking about. It is a hash
of St. Vitusness, Epilepsy and capillary tremors. It was smuggled into
America by Doodledina, who danced it before all the uncrowned skulls of
Europe, We piped the opening show and the whole house was popping
with sobs. There wasn't a dry" opera glass in the front row.
In the old days when your granny was a grandflapper, dancing con
sisted of the waltz and the Virginia reel. The waltz was limped to mau
solemn music slowed up especially for the occasion. If any chicken tod
dled faster than a whisper, four dozen hand-picked chaperons got tangled
up in their lorgnettes and it took a wrecking crew to get Jem back on the
tracks again.

Saws 1 ,000 Trees Into
Logs Since Last Fall
Amerongen, Holland, March 17.
(By the Associated Press.) Former
Emperor William has completed
sawing into logs his thousandth
tree since he took refuge at Count
von Bentinck's castle here last fall.
From the thousandth tree a few logs
were converted into,souvenirs of the
achievement and marked in red ink
with the "inscription: "W12." These
were presented to members of the
Bentinck family and to those who
have assisted the ex-emperor in his
wcrk during the fast 10 weeks. (
As he was completing his task
a young countess took a snap-shot
of Herr Hohenzollern and his as
sistants, Dr. Foerster and Captain
von Isemann, together with the
young gardener who adjusts the logs
on the bench for the ex-ruler to
saw them. The picture included the
former empress, who was reading a
newspaper nearby.
Expert sawyers of the neighbor
hood compute the value of the wages
Herr Hohenzollern would have
earned if he had been paid the trade
union rate at about $30 for the whole
period, or an average of 50 cents a
working day, which usually consists
of three hours.

A great many local base ball fans
are expecting a good scrap in the
room adjoining Ernie Holmes Bil
liard parlors tonight, when the
Greater Omaha league managers
meet to discuss the coming season.
Most of them are ready to open the
year as a strictly semi-pro organi
zation, butjhere are a few of them
that want tbx stick to the amateur
game and that's the reason the fans
are expecting a wordy battle.
Johnny Dennison, heretofore oppos
ed to the semi-pro; idea, is said to
have switched around and to be
now heartily in favor of the near
professional game. Some of them
are mean enough to say that the rea
son for Johnny's change of front is
that he will get no revenue from the
amateurs for the use of his Luxus
park, while the semi-pros' could
hardly get along without it.
The old Omaha club manager,
Marty Krug, said yestday that he
never requested a transfer to some
other club or any other league and
that Pa Rourke just wanted to
shift him off for some unknown
reason of his own. Marty is just
a little twisted in his ideas. Rourke
never stated that Krug fequested
his transfer, at least not in the pres
ence of the writer. What he said
was that he feared Marty would not
feel right as a player among the
bunch he used to manager that it
was an unwritten rule that managers
never came back to a club as a play
er, they were usually traded to some
other club on league. Perhaps is
Krug wants to remain with the
X)maha club, Prexy Rourke could
find a way to cancel ,the deal with
the San Antonio club, for the old
manager was a popular fellow with
the Omaha base ball fans.

The probabilities are that Iowa's

Proposes Creation of
Police Lieutenant to
Drill All Policemen
Commissioner Ringer of the po
lice department has proposed to
create a new position to be known
as lieutenant of police, at a salary
of $200 per month.
The proposition is embodied in an
ordinance which provides for the
new scale of pay for the depart
ment. "I have not selected the man for
this new place, but he will be an ex
perienced military man," Mr. Ringer
explained.
The work of the lieutenant will
be to improve the "esprit du corp"
of the department.
"I am opposed to bringing in any
outsider into any official position of
our police department," announced
Commissioner Zimman. "We would
keep before every patrolman the in
centive of promotion."

say, the Jerseyites are making much
money out of it, for the New York
fight follower will go anywhere to
see a scrap. Omaha has a great
number of boxing followers, but it
is likely that other towns in the
state would, send' a goodly quota of
fans to the Iowa ringsides as well.
Amateur ball players of Omaha
are wondering whether they ought
to attend the Municipal. league mass
meeting at the city hall Friday night,
or let some of the others do it, while
they take in the big wrestling match
at the Auditorium. It's a pity that
some other date could not have been
arranged for the meeting, but as it
happened, this was the only conven
ient date n which the new president
could be present (he proposed an
Eastern trip on account of the meet
ins), and as he is a real live wire
and has some fine ideas for bettering
amateur base ball in Omaha, the di
rectors thought it best to hold the
meeting in opposition to the mat
match. Some of the simon-pure
managers have it figured that they
can attend the meeting and get the
main points and then get over to the
big show in time to see the main
event, anyway.
