PESEK AGAIN IS
WINNER IN TWO
STRAIGHT FALLS
Shelton Farmer Pins Swede
k Champion Twice and Proves
He Is One of World's
Greatest Wrestlers.
The pride cf Shelton, Nebraska,
John Pesek proved that he is to
be rated among the foremost
wrestlers in the world by his de
cisive defeat of the Swedish cham
piqn, John Freberg of Chicago in
Iwb straight falls at the Omaha au
ditorium last night. Pesek won the
first fall in ore. hour, twenty-three
minutes and seventeen seconds witht
a jtoe hold, forcing the Swede to
concede the fall. The farmer" boy
had Freberg's leg across his thigh
end Freberg had to concede to suf
y fer a severe, injury to the, limb. The
, econd fall was quick, considering
i' the time consumed for the first one,
it being after 10 minutes and 30 sec-
' onds of hard wrestling. For the
5-second .fall, Pesek used a head cis-'I-sors
and a half nelson.. 7
X , The first fall was JiitterTy foaght
r and up to the time that Pesek secured
, his toe hold ii was in doubt. The
' v-men had wrestled on fairly even
9- terms up to that time, both men
.i proving fast on their feet and adept
at breaking an opponent's grips.
Freberg tried to escape the gruel
1 1'' ling grip but found his efforts were
'.'useless and signaled referee Sandy
JGrisvvold he would give in. Sandy
i patted the Shelton farmer on the
V back and the house went wild, up
j ward of 2,500 spectators cheering till
it was feared the plastering would

. ' The men took a 20-minute rest in
their dressing: rooms and returned
'..to the ring. It was announced that
' Sandy Griswold had been taken sud-
tiejily ill and would be unable to fin
f ish the match and Bert LeBron was
, introduced as the referee to finish
" the match. A telegram was read,
I u.from Steve Savage, challenging the
, winner, within three weeks, with
-'the toe hold barred and for a side
wager of $500. He stated in his wire
,-that: if Omaha did not want the
match, the Coliseum club of Chicago
$ would stage it I'esek and Freberg
" shook hand for the second session
i and went right after one another.
t " Pesek was the first one to get be
i .-hind, but he missed a grip and Fre-

jvtought around the ring, each trying

S- Chicago Swede again turned' and
"came irp behind.
;( , At nine minutes, Freberg tried a
wrist lock and Pesek spun on his
head turning around facing his op
I ponent and hopped astride of his
yhead clamping his knees down hard.
r. He locked his left arm around the
i'-'big Swede's left arm, forming a re-
verse half nelson and slowly turned
I ; him till his shoulders were flat on
f the mat. Referee LeBron patted
i '. Pesek's back and the match was

t'.thus proving to the world that he

I ' Zerson and Stangl Open.

AFTER studying this league of nations business for a few minutes
you have to send your forehead to the tailor's to have the wrinkles
ironed out. Makes you dizzier than a bird trying to climb a 20
rung ladder with 19 rungs missing. All we can decipher of the wreck is
that the world is to be made safe for republicans and safer for demo
crats. Cannibals are to be vegetarians and vegetarians are to quit eating
altogether.
This league stuff is Hank Ford's idea in the first place. When kings
first started kicking each other into deuces, Hank fitted out a peace ark
and ballasted it with the kind of passengers who have to shoot squirrels
in self-defense. It's a question whether the right idea at the wrong time
is any .better than the wrong idea at the right time. Europe accepted
Hank's dove of peace and stewed it up into a fine bowl of pigeon chowder.
Hank's ark was a flivver, f. o. b. Detroit. It would have been a suc
cess except for one thing. The ark made the round trip and toted all the
passengers and nuttengers back safe and unsound. Nothing was injured
except the acoustics and they got an awful beating.
Some bird suggested that if Hank was a bevel-edged pal of humanity
he would stick a couple of extra shock absorbers on that car of his. But
Henry believes in putting shock absorbers where they belong. And that's
on the pocketbook. -
He is building a new flivver that won't roll off your knife. This new
highway cootie is a form-fitting flivver that you pull on like a vest. Its
wheelbase is $100 shorter than the old car and three passengers narrower.
If this car is a success, Hank will start building 'em in pairs. Each man
will own a front one and a rearone just like collar buttons. If one rolls
tinder the bureau you can crank up the other one and sail off hellbent for
election. "
On rainy days you take off the state license and grind coffee in the
old car. By pouring wool into the engine instead of gas, the wife uses it
to darn your sox with. The children teeth on the back wheels. It's a one
man top on half a man chassis. When not in use the canary uses it for a
cage. What could be fairer?
The only way you can tell Henry's new cartrocity from the kitchen
bread box is by the wheels. Instead of buying a baby carriage, married
guys will take. a handle on Hank's latest gasoleak chariot, pour a little
Grade A milk into the radiator cap and trundle off down the street like a
nursery on roller skates.
This latest thing in boulevard doggers is going to make automobile
crooks dizzy. When you buy Hank's new boat, you will notice a small
hook on the rear axle. That's to hang it on the hall rack. When you
waddle into a Farnam cabaret you check the fliwerine at the coat room
with your hat.
If your flivverette does a Hesperus on the road you don't have to
phone for a wrecking crew. Just smear a 3-cent stamp on the ruins and
mail it from zone to zone. You'll get it' back safe unless some postoffice
slicker cops it out of the letter.
Around Christmae time the department stores will flash signs like this:
CARRY FLIVVERS AND OTHER SMALL PACKAGES HOME.
If you intend to purchase one of the latest vest pocket size cars, buy a
nice beaded one that the wiff can carry for a hand bag. It has been a
Detroit boast that all Ford cars outlast their owners. Sure thing. Just
like a lemon squeezer outlasts a lemon.
, a
Hank's latest baby flivver is going to be a big success. 'They may
laugh at 'em, but there are millions who are laughing in 'em. They rattle
on year after year. One will last a generation and then can be handed
down to sonny like grandpop's patched trousers.
And there's no way of putting 'em out of commission unless some
near-sighted housekeeper sprinkles roach powder on 'em.
Theatrical Magnate ,
Picks Dempsey to Win
Big Julyfc 4th Battle
"Nothing can stop Jack Dempsey
from being the next heavyweight
champion," declares Barney Gerard,
whose show, "The Follies of the
Day," is now appearing at the
Gayety, in a conversation with sev
eral Omaha friends last evening. ,
So sure is Gerard of that that he
has placed Dempsey under contract
to manage all of hi exhibitions and
theatrical appearances, guarantee
ing to Dempsey the sum of $25,000
for a stated period. In addition to
that Gerard paid Dempsey $25,000
for a half interest in the pugilist's
earnings for the next two years. This
means that Gerard figures on Demp
sey making at least $100,000 in that
time.
It was Gerard who exploited Bat
tling Nelson- when very few had
ever heard of the, Durable Dane. He
placed him with his "The Ameri
cans," and through his boosting and
publicity got Nelson into the bout
with Gans which won for the former
the coveted title. Gerard also han
dled all of Jack Johnson's exhibi
tions when that gladitor first appear
ed on the pugilistic horizon.

Well, the Iowa legislature didn't
prove as red-blooded as the real
sport fans thought it would be.
They took another thump at the
poor old boxing game and defeated
the measure 49 to 59. The Iowa so
lons are a long way from being as
thoughtful of the general public
pleasures as are those of Nevada.
Out there, they pass a bill, and if
the governor vetoes it, they slam it
through over his head. Looks like
a fellow that wants any real sport
will have to go further west.
There is still a week left for the
Nebraska lawmakers to get together
on the boxing bill in this state. ; It
will have to be voted on this week
or shelved for another two years.
Looks like they want to make cer
tain that no one can put the gloves
or. in this state. Oh! What would
we give if the boxing bill was put
to a popular vote. The people of this
little space on the map would cer
tainly put it over with a bang.
A local, theatrical man advertises
that he wants women, his reason
is given for attendance at his show
f -rformances. It looks like we want
them too, for the women seem to
have a better idea of what is wanted
in the way of state laws than most
of the men do. Out in Idaho, the
women have seats among the law
makers and they voted for the pass
age of a boxing bill. The oppo
nents of the bill out there were all
men, but the bill was put over, and
the limit is 20 rounds at that,

he will come to Council Bluffs and

Lichenstein Claims
Metrie Is the Coming
Lightweight Champion
Chicago, 111, March 21. (Special.)
--A second Wolgast, is the rating
given Charley Metrie, Larney Lich
enstein's 130 pounder, who has been
forging rapidly to the front and giv
ing' the lightweights a merry even
ing when they climb througji the
ropes with him. Metrie, who has
just reached his majority, is the
rushing, boring in type, a two-fisted
warrior, who enjoys nothing better
than an opportunity to trade wallops
at close range. He's rated as the
toughest bird in the lightweight divi
sion today.
That other men in his class have
a good opinion of him was evidenced
recently when Harvey Thorpe refus
ed to meet him in a Detroit ring,
giving as hi excuse, "that Metrie
was to tough a boy to take on four
days in advance of a bout with
Charlie White." Manager Lichen
stein is taking Metrie along slowly!
grooming him for the top. Just the
same, neither Metrie or his manager
fears anything from any of the j-res-ent
day lightweights. "There's not a
man in the division that can knock
him off his pins," says Larney. The
prediction here is that Lichenstein
has the coming lightweight cham
pion in his stable,

Bluffs show. It is seldom that an
athlete in any line gets a chance to
meet two champions inside of a
week. Finn wilt be giving away
considerable weight to Reynolds,
but he figures to have . a good
chance, at that, for he has beaten
the welter champion in a finish
match, before Reynolds held the
title, and he thinks he can repeat.
The title will not be involved when
he goes against the feather cham
pion. .
The "comeback" bug has bitten
Joe Rivers again. He will make an
other attempt to regain pugilistic
laurels in a match with Richie Mit
chell at Milwaukee April 4. Rivers
was secured to meet Mitchell when
it was found that Johnny Dundee
would not be able to meet the Mil
waukee lightweight on that date.
Dundee will be signed up for a date
a short time after the Rivers bout.
The new welterweight boxing
champion is starting out in good
form. Instead of the usual stalling
for a rest before he risks his title,
Jack Britton will meet Willie
Laughlin, the Bethlehem (Pa.) star,
in a 10-round scrap within a week
Britton, when he wa3 champion be
fore Ted Lewis, to whom he lost
the title, proved a real fighting
champion and a popular one for
that reason. He took them all on
as fast as the bouts were offered
him. In fact, took them on too fast.
That's how he lost to Lewis. He
took the Britisher on before he had
had sufficient rest between bouts
and did not have his usual ."pep."
He proved that he was always a bet
ter man than Lewis by trimming
him all the way in their Canton,
(O.) bout and then finally landing
the "crusher" that put Lewis to
sleep for more than the required
10 seconds. Fans, who knew them
both, have been predicting that Jack
would flatten Lewis every time they
met, but for some reason or other
Britton was never able to make
good until they met in the Ohio
mill.
Western League Notes
Owner Pa Rourke and Manager
Bill Jackson are in the running with
the Omaha club, claiming a team
of pennant winners, too. Having
completed deals that will give them
two young infielders and a southpaw
pitcher and the acquisition by other
means of several good ball players,
the Rourkes stand a corking good
chance of gathering. In the past
the Omaha club has made several
good players out of sandlot pickups,
and it is possible that it will be done
again this year, for Jackson has
been making inquiries about Wees
Corcoran, the star hot corner guard
ian for the Armour Ball club. If
Bill doesn't make connections with
Corcoran he has an infielder he is
pretty sweet on in Pat Mason, the
Kansas City youngster, who played
only a game or two with the Oma
ha club last year.
What a season this should be for
the Western league Nearly all the
soldier players will be discharged in
time to get into the game before the
season is very old, and each team in
the loop has a bunch of new players
the fans are banking on to make
good, and the fans of every burg on
the circuit are claiming a pennant
for the club. The old hot stove

stands at all the opening games will
probably be crowded to the gates.

Strikeouts and a
Pitcher's Worth.
(From Sporting Nswi.)
Branch Rickey of the St. Louis
Cards is out with a new theory. .. It
is this: Neither the "games won"
column nor the "earned runs" af
ford an exact indication of the ef
fectiveness of a pitcher. He explains
as follows: s
"In both of these systems the
work of pitcher's team mates is a
most important contributing factor
to-victory or defeat. . The only
statistics published that to me seem
to indicate a real test of pitching
merit are the 'bases on balls' and the
'strike outs.'
'Bases oh balls tell of the orle
weakness of a pitcher, in which his
team mates play no part;' in a
similar manner the strikeout is an
indication of efficiency also inde
pendent of team help.
"Whenever you see a pitcher with
a large proportion of strikeouts and
a low one of bases on ball, wtark
that hurler down he's real star. I
have. been testing out my Cardinal
hurlers on this basis and I see no
ground for believing that we are go
ing to run the rival pitching staffs
into the sea with our efficiency.
Some of my hurlers are, briefly,
'rotten.' I wmt one other strong
pitcher, however, and I think we'll
do. Before I sign him I'll have a
keen eye on his BB and SQ
columns."
There will be general agreement
with what Rickey has to say about
the worthlessness of pitchers who
give frequent bases on balls, but he
can get an argument on his strike
out statement.

After the men had been wrestling 1;J
one hour and a half Lewis secured J
one of his famous headlocks which
he held for one minute and a half.
When Zbyszko broke away he ;
staggered against the ropes and was
very groggy. ' -i
Lewis made a flying leap for an-
other headlock with which he threw
Zbyszko again to the mat, Zbyszko
by sheer strength straightened up
and got a body hold, forcing Lewis
to the mat where he pinned his
shoulders for the winning fall.
At one stage Zbyszko got a toe
hold from which Lewis struggled
in great agony. Both men were in
good physical condition . and the
wrestling, all through was scientific
