' The Highland Park Pharmacy would like an out-of-town game for the Fourth of July. Address J. Marcan, 1421 Madison St, Omatu, Neb, South Sid - - , Each of the two big men who meet in Omaha on July 4, Ed "Strangler" Lewis and Peerless Joe Stecher, is doing all his prepara tory work at his own home. Stecher is training diligently with his broth er, Anton, Joe Smeal and a mysteri ous stranger in the Dodge locality, and reports himself in excellent shape already. His opponent, Lewis, is doing his work on his California fruit farm, and Billy Sandow, his hustling manager, reports that he is also in fine shape and ready to meet Stech er today. Billy is confident that his man will clamp his deadly headlock on. Stecher and end Joe's wrestling, not only for that night, but for the entire season. While Sandow seems to be placing all his confidence and reliance on the Strangler's head lock, the Stecher adherants are just as confident that Joe will mash Lewis' ribs so hard with the scissors that he will not be able to work on the mat again for many a day. The ordinary work of training for an important match soon palls on the ordinary wrestler, but Stecher has arranged his training so that he has quite a variety of stunts, doing away with the tedious matter in his work. He plays base ball with the Dodge team, of which he is also the" manager; plays handball, runs with., his pet dog, an animal trained to play leap frog with Joe on the road. He runs a little distance and stoops over and the dog leaps over him, running oh ahead, and Joe then leaps over the dog. Both the pup and the wrestler enjoy the road trips in this way, and Stecher re turns with a good bath of perspira tion and in good spirits. The Californian is combining his work: with pleasure also, as he is climbing fruit trees in the morn ings, adding a profit to his training, and putting in several hours with a number of husky wrestling mates in his high-class gymnasium, built for him by his wife as a wedding pres ent. He wires that he will surely win, apparently as confident as his manager. Joe Stecher is going to make a determined stand to secure a referee for this match who is a Nebraskan and capable of acting in the capa city of third man in the ring on the afternoon of July 4. - Stecher always has felt that in his last match here with Lewis in 1916 the decision should have been ren dered in his favor, as he claims he did the most work and was the strongest at the end of the contest. However, many differ with Joe in his 'opinion, and there are an equal number of fans who feel Lewis should have received the decision instead" of the referee calling it a draw. Stecher clatms in all his matches he has never discriminated against any man of reputation and ability as referee for his contests, but he believes there are as good men in Nebraska as any place else, and one should be selected to ref eree this contest who will give both boys a fair .square deal. There is no question but what Billy Sandow, Lewis' manager, will have an opinion of his own to ren der with regard to the referee, and he, without doubt, will want to bring in an outsider. However, he had his whole say on the match of 1916, and Stecher made no objec tion to Ed Smith, who is consid ered one of the best men t in .he game, and while many criticized his decision on their last match, he ha always contended that neither one of them had any the best of the match, and as there were no fa'ls. no decision but a draw could have been rendered. This match must be decided on falls, ,so that it will not be hard for a man to decide the winner. Stech er has always claimed that he has no superior on the mat today, and while he has had a few setbacks, he cites the fact that Gotch, in his palmiest days, lost a match t'j Freddie Beall and other great ath letes have been set back on differ ent occasions. Stecher asserts he will defeat Lewis decisively, and once for all decide who is the logical man to meet Caddock for the championship of the world here in Omaha in the fall. Dope Upset -With Dempsey Favorite in July 4th Fight For First Time in History of Championship, Heavy weight Ring Battles the Title Holder Will Enter Arena n Short End of the Bettings y By FRANK G. MENKE. (Universal Service Staff Correspondent.) Toledo, June 26. Approximately $1,000,000 was rushed into town to day from all parts of the country with this instruction: "Bet it at even money that Jack Dempsey whips Jess Willard on July 4." The bulk of the fortune came from plungers in the big cities who hoped to find odds against . Dempsey in their own towns. Failing to locate better than even money, they sent it here with the expectation of find ing Willardites who would lay at least 6 to 5 on their man. But pxactically all of that $1,000, 000 remains unplaced.' There is no financial backing for Willard and right now there is the belief that before fight time Dempsey will rule a 5 to 4 and perhaps a 5 to 3 favor its over the champion. If that comes about it means a situation without parallel in pugilistic history. Willard in Poor Shape. Never in the annals of American ringdom has a champion failed to go to the "post" a favorite. Paddy Ryan was a 2 to 1 shot over John L Sullivan and the great Bostonian's backers laid 4 to 1 that he would whip Corbett. (The californian was favorite over Fitzsimmons and Bob, in turn, was a 13- to 5 ruler over Jeffries. When Jeff went against Johnson he was favorite, while John son was 3 to 1 when he battled Wil lard. The absence o Willard money can be explained in only one way. His most enthusiastic friends have lost confidence because he doesn't seem to be in fighting shape, and they figure an aged and improperly trained Willard cannot endure be fore the sledgehammer attacks of the cyclonic youthful and superbly trained Dempsey. . . No Referee Named. The rtfereeing matter is still in status quo with the prospect of more wrangling lobming large despite the announcement by Tex Rickard that the names of the men who will serve as referee and judges will be made public tomor- Lrow. Adams tmpie, who is here with W. A: Gavin, representing the National Boxing cimmission, gave out a statement last night which read in part: "Major Biddle will wire the names of the officials to Mr. Rickard to morrow." ' Fighters' Not Satisfied. Kearns and Willard aren't at all keen about having a pair of judges assist the referee. Both are ex ponents of the old plan of only a referee. Rickard favors the three of ficials rule. Why? Well it's a mystery to me. But insiders claim that Rickard feels that the only way that Ollie Pecord can be jammed into the refereeing job is to have two judges assist him. The point is this: Pecord is the official referee of the Toledo Box- Ling commission. Its rules provide that he must referee all fights in Toledo. And this Dempsey-Wil-lard affair is to be fought under Toledo commission rules. Pecord is a good man, but both fighters know otner reterees mat mey are Keener Loomis- Defeats -Minden at Upland Victory Celebration Upland, Neb.,- June 25. (Special.) Loomis won from Minden, 7 to 6, at Upland's victory celebration yes terday. Except in the fifth, when Minden bunched five hits for as many scores, their hits were scat tered, while Loomis', though fewer, were both timely and long. The game was witnessed by a huge crowd.

Feeling that per haps the fighters might object to him as the sole judge he espoused the three-man plan. That would sim plify things. Pecord could refree and the judges, being men of sea soned ability could safeguard the fighters' interests by outvoting Pecord in a decision if he blundered.
