Player in Right Field
Part Time.
Oklahoma City, June 19. (Spe
cial Telegram.) Southpaw hurling,
as exemplified yesterday by Messrs.
Townsend and Fuhr of the Omaha
team, failed to puzzle Holland's
tribe, the league leaders swatting
the portside duo with much zest in
a one-sided affair that ended with
Oklahoma City on the long end of
a 10-to-2 decision. Oklahoma City
bunched five hits for four runs in
the third, and added a second quar
tet of tallies in the fifth when four
blows, two for extra bases, were
grouped with a walk and fielder's
choice.
Hale was safe on Lindimore's er
ror in the seventh, and Barbeau
walked. Both moved up when Ma
son grounded to Adams. Hale
scored on Spellman's out at first,
and Gislason's double sent Barbeau
across Score:

LEGISLATORS OF
OHIO WANT BOUT
JULY 4 STOPPED
Political factions Fight on
Resolution Giving Gov
ernor Power to Pre
vent the Mill.
Columbus, O., June 19. The low
er house of the Ohio legislature this
afternoon adopted a resolution ask
ing Governor Cox to stop the Willard-Dempsey
heavyweight cham
pionship prize fight to be held at
Toledo, July 4.
Governor Cox is ill at his home
near Dayton and could not be
reached for a statement on the res
olution adopted by the house. No
one at the executive office would
comment on the1 resolution. The
governor, it was said, is confined to
his bed.
With Gov. Cox ill at his home
near Dayton, no official at the state
Canitol wniltrl vnme, 1,,'mcoU

thontatively as to the governor's
I'luuauic action in response to the
resolution arlon ("pH tnrl q v Kir tit
lower house of the general assembly
requesting him to take steps to pre
vent the Willard-Dempsey fight in
Toledo July 4. The general impres-
aiuu, However, is mat uov. Cox will
not interfere.
Lieutenant Governor Brown stat
ed he had no legal authority to act.
The matter rests in the hands of
the governor," the-lieutenant gov
ernor said.
At the executive offices it was
stated the policy heretofore followed
would be pursued and that Gov. Cox
would have no statement to make
even though he were here.
Attorney General Price would
make no statement on the question
of the governor's authority to stop
the fight.
The resolution declares the "fight
promoters have failed to obtain per
mission for the exhibition in "all of
North America, except Ohio and old
Mexico," and asks the governor to
"follow precedents of former gov
ernors in upholding the fair name of
the state of Ohio, and to take prop
er steps to prevent the taking place
of the proposed prize fight within
the confines of the state of Ohio."
The resolution also declares such
exhibitions as the proposed bout
"are brutal in their nature and not
conducive to good morals."
The Dunn bill, which was defeated
in thp 1 n w p r hnncA ,i .t . U II
resolution of today, divided the les;-'
:i- i t i ... ... ci
iMnure aiong snarp political lines.
Democrat members declared the
purpose. of both the bill and the res
olution was solely to bring political
embarrassment to Gov.. Cox. This
Accusation was denied by republi
cans. A joint resolution that would
have required senate concurrence
was introduced first. This failed
on a strict party vote. The resolu
tion then was re-offered as a house
resolution and was adopted without
a record vote.
While the postponedTight is said
to conform technically to the state
boxing laws, republican leaders de
clare the governor could prevent the
fight .if he so desired on the ground
that it is in reality to be ax:hampion

of a boxing exhibition. Democratic
leaners are equally as strong in their
contention that the proposed ex

conformity with the state laws and
therefore, the governor 's without
authority to interfere. All agreed
that if it were'a prize fight and ad

'TOTTING THE

OVER
WITITDUGS'DAER
A HEALTHY REACTION.
WE ain't hep vho is responsible for the peace treaty leak, but you
can bet the cat's whiskers that it ain't Woody. Fourteen points
is too thin a margin tb plav with down in Wall street.
'
There are yards of leaks down in that old percentage lane, but the
big leak is the leak in old Joe Public's pocket. Which is what keeps the
commission grabbers fatter than a 10-ham hog. The public has about as
much chance in that old margin boulevard as a dish-faced champanzee in
a beauty contest. When you're, wrong you are wrong. And when you're
right you are wrong.
When all the dope has been cancelled, the broker has his commission
the banker has his interest, and all
check book. Ihe old checkerino volume is as full of stubs as a corn held
in October. '
Just when the small investor is figuring that he has discovered the
footprints of a fortune, the brokers get their skulls together like door
knobs in a hardware store and knock him loose from his toupee. Just
when he is loitering around the suburbs of a bankroll the old-timers
switch in the house dice and he goes dizzy by a huge majority. He grabs
a life membership in a bread line with all his dues paid up and walks
around making motions like a bird cutting out paper dolls for the -wholesale
and retail trade.
This is what Wall street calls a healthy reaction. Any time the pub
lic is sitting prelty with a little velvet piling up the brokers pull the ash
pan out from under the bottom of the heater and the works go coo-coo.
Your old bank roll shakes you pay-day and the broker wears a smile
wide enough to give him an earache.
If that's a healthy reaction, we'd hate to be to windward of an un
healthy one. Smell something like a Turkish cantonment in the garlic
season. Here are a few of the healthy reactions that make the public
look like a twin getting his brother's sulphur and molasses.
No wonder the small investors are walking Spanish. International
Mercantile Marine had a healthy reaction and flopped from 29 to 116 in
about three wiggies of an eight-day clock.
After seeing the old bank roll hop south, the small investor took
off his smaller straw kelly and a new crop of butterflies fluttered out.
The reaction was healthy, but not for Gus Investor. Old General
Motors was busted by the chief-of-staff and clattered from 243 to 211, in
dicating that the general ain't"much more than a major at present. The
reaction was so healthy that 56 margin jugglers rattled into a relapse
and it took six stethoscopes to detect one murmur in their bank rolls.
Studebaker started to get healthy around this time and acted like a
busted Zepp. She sunk from 123 to 101, which is almost as bad as the
Brooklyn .Dodgers on a road trip.
Mexican Pete was knocked off from 205 to 178, which.looks more like
the size of a carary bird's collar than an oil stock.
Atlantic Gulf stepped out with the other healthy guys and was 16
points lighter a: the tjme of going to the epitaph carvers.
Just about the time the obituary column went to press, American
Wool was clipped from 123 to 110 and United States Steel was 7 points
fewer.
All of which is catalogued under the head of fun and healthy reac
tions. Yea, bo. If that's health, we'll take vanilla. If you lamp a bird
with a face wrinkled like a Palm Beach suit that has been slept in,' yon
can bet that he is the victim of a healthy reaction. He's old Philip Public
and he's just got oer an attack of healthy reaction-ing down in the
street of narrow ticker tape and narrower margins.
It's sweet stuff for the brokers and accomplices, but it's tough pick
ings for the public. Which is only another reminder that a sucker
should stick to his own game. Some suckers' game is being a sucker, but
the barber should stick to his banjo lessons, the janitor to his pinochle
and the second lieuetenants to flirting.
Every man to his own trade.

of Detroit, 10 rounds at 116 pounds.
Sergeant Walter Monahan, chief
sparring partner for Willard, said
today that in his opinion. Willard
is 200 per cent a better boxer than
when he-fought Jack Johnson for
the heavyweight championship in
Havana in 1915.
Monahan, while not predicting a
knockout for Willard, believes he
wilPwin handfly. He asserted that
no one knows the tremendous hit
ting power of the champion.
"He knocked me out with a half
pulled punch and wore 16-ounce
gloves," Monahan added. "Just
imagine how he can hit when he lets
go with full force and only a five
ounce glove on his hands."
The sunburned Dempsey pulltd
on the gloves today for the first
time since Monday and stepped two
spirited rounds with Terry Keller
before motion picture men. The
workout was staged expressly for
the movies, but Manager Kearns
announced the challenger would. set
tle down to hard training again on
Saturday, which means that Demp
sey wijl resume' daily work with the
gloves.
Willard boxed eight rounds, in
addition to a round of shadow beat
ing and two rounds of other exer
cises. V

LEWIS TELLS OF
DISCOVERY OF
HEADLOCK HOLD
Describes His Early Experi
ence With Deadly Grip
and Gives His Man
ager Credit.
"Followers of wrestling believe
that the toe hold is tne most terrible
grip in the game," says Dr. B. F.
Roller, the famous physician-wrestler,
"but that is an erroneous idea.
The best l.o'd in the game is the
gvi:it Lewis headlock, perfected by
vEd "Strangler' Lewis and his
manager, Billy banciow. 1 his grip
is. the dread of all professional
wrestlers "
When Lewis was training for his
match with John Olin, a Chicago
newspaper printed the following: 1
"I have often been asked," says
Ed "Strangler" Lewis, how and
when 1 discovered the headlock.
"When Billy Sandow took charge
of me, and started to make me a
champion, he used to wrestle and
coach me on the mat and constantly
calling for speed, speed, speed, the
word got to be like a whip on my
back. It forced me to work and I
got into the habit of fairly jumping
up at my wrestling partners. Sud
denly I discovered that by leaping
into the air and at the same time
putting on a headlock gave me a lot
of force and when I tried it on my
partners I pinned them to the mat
in a jiffy.
"That was the real start of what
is now called my headlock. I have
studied for hours and hours on the
mat to perfect that hold and finally
found out just where to apply it.
After I perfected the headlock I
could not get wrestling partners to
work with me, so my manager,
Billy Sandow invented the wooden
dummy.
Many w-restlers have raised ob
jections to the headlock, stating the
hold is brutal; This Lewis, of
course, strenuously denies.
"Exceptions cannot be taken to it
on this ground," said he, "without
including also the toe hold, and body
and head scissors. I'll admit that my
headlock may be a punishing hold,
but it is not nearly so brutal as the
toe hold or the body scissors. I'll
venture to say that Gotch and
Steelier won 90 per cent of their
matches with the toe hold and body
scissors, respectively, and, in at
least 90 per cent of these victories
their opponents 'resigned' before
their shoulders were pinned to the
mat. I have seen Stecher's oppo
nents bleed from the ears, nose and
mouth while he had them in the
scissors, and Gotch's toe hold is, I
think, the most painful known to
sport. Yet neither of them are ever
protested.
"As for me sneaking it into a
strangle hold, that's bunk. My
rivals offer that contention merely
to befog the real issue. I defy any
referee in the world to pronounce
my headlock a strangle."
At any rate the great Lewis
Headlock" has been perfected and
to this day is the dread of all pro
fessional wrestlers.
