Local Bowling Notes. .
Fremont may not -bt as big as
Omaha, but they have a big bowling
team. With a margin of 202 pins
they buried the fast Rpfeera Cafe
team in their match Sunday after
noon. This is the second time the
cafe crowd has taken the losing side
of the argument from the Fremont
ers. , .
Middaugh and Hammond have
not changed a bit. Still have their
winning ways.
Max Vance still shoots his funeral
ball which delays the game about an
hour every night he shoots.
x If Hazard would put his history
of bowling in and around East
Mol(ne and Aurora, 111., into print
it would make some huge volume.
"Wally" Schoenman still shoots
'em left-handed once in awhile and
finds a little improvement over the
right-handed style. Must intend to
roll a portside match with "Count"
Gengler., ,
That Fairmont Creamery team in"
the Mercantile league could give any
of the local squads a good race.1
McCoy, Jedlicka, Maurer. Figen
schuh and Gibson make ' up y the
squad.
Clyde Bland, who has been missed
from the runways, has donned the
elkhides again and intends to hook
up witha good team. . Always a
steady, consistent bowler, he would
make a good man for any team.
Where they all are "Keypie"
Kent is sojourning in Minneapolis
and still interested in' the fowling
game.
Art P4rcn fnrmrr ritv chamD.
has been having all kinds of hard
luck this season and consequently
has been unable to get into the
game. First he wis under a dentist's
care, then he stabbed his sliding
foot with a piece of tin while fish
ing, and now he has injured his
trusty mitt. Some careless yardman
in the stock yards dropped the talk
ing end of a pitchfork onit while
Art was reaching for a hdrseshoe
during a championship of the yards
match between two fast horseshoe
teams. ,
Jim Coleman has affixed bis sig
nature to a Scott Tent and Awning
contract. After a reorganization of
the jJowen Furnitures Jim's name
couldn't be found in the list, so he
had to shoot somewhere, the Scotts
drawing the prize.
Middlewest Tournament Notes
The local drive for entries will be
given double force this week. More
men writl be on the job and more
tijne will be given to the work. If
every local bowler would do his
luty the entry committee could be
saved a large amount of work. There
is not a bowler in the city who can
notpersonally land an entfy or di
rect the committee to where there
one is to be had. '
The Council Bluffs rollers are
i-nminor to life and are showine a
little interest in the meet. Looks
like four teams from over the river.
From far-off Madison, S. D.,
comes a plea for entry blanks. They
have heard of the tournament' and
are anxious to get in. JThey-have
never been heard of and do not ap
pear on the official mailing list. Sec
retary hastily mailed them all the
official literature, including a special
invitation. They claim they have
the strongest team south of 53, so
watch for a dark horse.
Looks like separate. nighfafor
Auto Row, Grain Exchange, local
banks and Live Stock Exchange.
All these different Industrie! will
enter enough teams to fill one, eve
ning's schedule;1 according to the
present outlook.
Yes, Sweeney wiH be here so we
are sure of a good gate. There Is
always crowd following this grand
old St Louisatu He is known evfcry
place there is bowling and he is al
ways welcome.
At last the Denver entry is In with
the old ex-Omaha crack, Gjerde, at
its helm. We figured on his team
but Ntljere' should be more.
Sneppard of Kansas City is en
tered and is sure to attract a lot of
attention. He is one of tbgame's
best tournament shooters.
The outside entry is unusually
large now, with the entries open un
til midnight, November 13. After
considering the usual huge last-minute
entry, which every big tourna
ment experiences, indications are
strong for a record outside entry.
- Team captains should bear in
mind that every league team in the
city is expected to .enter. It is not
argued that all these teams have a
chance to win. It is argued that it
is every bowler's duty to boost the
tournament, which is only boosting
his own game. A large local entry
is necessary to assure the tourna
ment a success. The tournament
officials onlv exoect that which oth-
er cities have accomplished.
uet your entry in now.

"The large silver cup which will be
given to the all-event champion is
here and will be displayed -in the
windows of , the Starr Kingman Shoe
company, on Sixteenth street, -ft is
a beautiful engraved trophy over
three feet high. In addition to this,
the all-event champion will win a
big purse and a gold medal. Nine
of these medals are being made now.
Five are given to the team cham
pions, two to the two-man cham
pions and one to the all-event
champion. These medals are- the
coveted prizes of all bowlers, who
always prize them highly in after
years. The medal winners also will
receive cash prizes.

Rheumatism meant that the

It does not require medical ad

rid of your rheumatics. You must
co deeper than that, down deep into

X s.
New York, Nov. 3. (Special Tel
egram.) Joe Stecher, the Nebraska
farmer boy, defeated Ed ("Strang
ler") Lewis in a catch-as-catcb-can
wrestling match, in Madison Square
Garden Monday night. Stecher se
cured the necessary fall after 1 hour
31 minutes'and 2 seconds with a
double wrist lock and body scissors
hold. ' " .
- It was a- dramatic finish to a sen
sational match that had the crowd
on edge every minute after the two
eiants warmed to their work. In
deed, toward the ; end it appeared
Stecher would go down to defeat
before the dread head hold of the
"Strangler." - '
Time after time Lewis applied tne
crushing, punishing hold on Stech
er, but the latter, game to tEe core,
wormed his way dizzily out' of dan
ger. ,
Stecher throughout was the cooler
and more deliberate of the two and
it was owing, to this same coolness
that the farmer boy was finally able
to achieve his victory. Repeated ap
plications of the head hold had left
Joe Stecher somewhat dizzy and be
wildered when, after an hour and 25
minutes, Lewis applied his chiet
trick for the sixth time of the night.
It was with the greatest difficulty
that Stecher by the clever use of his
powerful and agile legs succeeded in
escaping tne human vice, tie was so
groggy when he got to his feet that
he fell an easy victim to the same
trap and was borne to the mat an
evidently doomed man, but Stecher,
with his shoulders almost on the
canvas, bridged wonderfully and
finally jerked loose. Quick as a steel
trap he rolled away. He encircled
Lewis' body with his dependable
legs, using immediately in conjunc
tion with his best stock in trade a
hammerlock that turned Lewis over
on his back. Lewis by sheer strength
broke this hammerlock, but in doing
so cave Stecher an opportunity to
improve the purchase of his body
scissors.
Stecher, still cool headed, then
went deliberately about applying the
wristlock. iie watched his oppor
tunity as Lewis tried to squirm free
and finally he secured a double wrist
lock that clinched the victory. The
scissors tor the once had triumphed
over theheadlock. "
Before the main bout, Wladeck
Zbvszko. with a bodv lift, raised
Petroff of Chicago, hich in the air
and tossed him for a fall in 2 minutes
42. seconds. Zbyszko challenged th
winner ot the other bout snd a tel
egram from Earl Caddock, was read
stating that he would meet Stecher
or Lewis here later.
