DUCK HUNTING GOSSIP,
Hunters as well as bird lovers will
welcome the news that the wood
duck is again becoming plentiful,
and this in spite of the fact that it
is unlawful to shoot these handsome
birds. Sportsmen are not killers for
the sake of killing, although they are
sometimes pictured as such iiv the
natural history books; on the whole
sportsmen have done more for bird
" protection than, the ladies and gentle
men who write the bird books, we
believe, V -
Early this fall the timber and
small waters of the Illinois river il"
ley literally swarmed with wood
ducks and while a few were shot on
the sly or by mistake, the general
tendency was to let them alone. Last
fall they were also plentiful and in
the spring they came back and raised
goodly broods. "No doubt'they will
do the same next spring and all the
Dther springs to come.
The mallard, pintail and ' other
ducks can pretty well take care of
themselves, now that spring shooting
and market hunting ire, done away
w ith, but the wood ducK, tnrougn its
own lack of intelligence ancKpecuiiar
. breeding habits, needs protection;
sportsmen are for it.
The wood duck drake is the most,
handsomely colored of all Ameri
can birds, all dressed up like .a cir
rus pony, with bewildering array
of rich colors, but he is lacking, ar
chitecturally; his neck is too small
. for his head and he is not graceful
in carriage. .
In our eyes the handsomest of all
waterfowl is the drake pintail. In
the air or on land or water he ij
. pleasing to the eye, bis long necR
giving him a grace not found in any
Mhcr water bird; in coloration heas
snough brilliancy to satisfy our ele
mental love of barbaric splendor,
while the beautiful grays, buffs nd
pencilings he carries are distributed
in just the correct proportions.
Last fall we saw an unusually
large and handsome pintail drake.
He had injured his wing in break
ing into a pen of live mallard and
jiake thfe sest of it by accepting the
hospitality of the owner of the mal
lards; he was quite tame and per
haps figured Jhat he' was safer in a
pen than in the air-r-specially as he
probably heard that we were coming
down the following weekl Wise

Ja$ Lewis and Gene Melady Stage
League of Rations Act Over the
Selection of Referee for Match Dec. 6
"I don't see anything great about him!'
Z-z-z-z-z-z (vibratory thunder.)
"He won't referee when my boy is in the ring.
Earl is wrestling such a touch bird as Peters."
This person speaking was none other than Gene Melady, manager
of Earl Caddock, formeV wsrld's champion heavyweight owrestler, who
meets Charles Peters of Sarpy coun
ty at the City auditorium next Mon
day night, and he burned a big hole
in the sterilized atmosphere of
wrestling when the words flowed
from his lips.
"There you go," whined Jack
Lewis, promoter and manager of
Peters, who is staging the show. "I
cet pvervthincr arraneed and then
you breeze in and vfreck my plans."
"You're getting mad," cautioned
Gene, mopping his forehead savage
ly.
"1 am mad, Uene; i am maa. wnoi
wouldn't get mad when a fellov
steps in a few days before a big
match and says you will have to get
another referee?" ,
"But you don't have to fight about
it. answered Melady.
"Well, gee whiz, here I go and
get everything fixed for one of the
best wrestling matches ever staged
in Nebraska and you come delaying
mv nlans. returned Jack.
"'Oh, well, let's cut out the league
of nations stuff and get down to
business before it is fbo late," said
Gene.
The trouble that caused the war
clouds to float i over the coming
match bobbed m when Melady re
fused to allow Caddock to wrestle
Peters with Ed. Smith of Chicago
as the third man m the niie.
Promoter Lewis scratched his
head for a minute and then suggested
Sec Tavlor of Des. Moines and Ed
Cochrane of Kansas City as the re
fcrce. Melady and Caodock approve
ed of either Taylor or Cochrane a
the third man.'
It is the general opinion of the
wrestling bugs in Omaha that Pro
moter Lewis has arranged a real
show for next Monday nisrfct.
Tickets are on sale at the Foftte-
nelle hotel. Stock Exchange, South
Omaha, Merritt's Sixteenth street
drug store, Barkalow Bros, cigar
store, Sixteenth andjrarnam streets
and the Auditorium.
Let 'er go-
Stecher to Meet French
Champion at Kansas City.
Toe Stecher. Dodge, Neb., wrestler,
who is in possession of the heavy
weight championship of the world, is
losing no time in preparing for the
mat game this winter. The champ
grappled recently won over Steve
O'Donncll, Frenchman, at New
York, and tonight at Kansas City is
schedule to tangle with another
wrestler from "Sunny France," by
the name of Salvator Chevalier,
chamoion of his country. .
The Stecher-Chevalier bout will be
a two-falls-out-of-three affair and is
carded as the mam event of an athlet
ic show. Ed 'Strangler' Lewis and
Raymond Cazeau have been matched
for the semi-windup.
The Lewis-Cazeau match is adver
tised as for the rough-house. cham
pionship and it undoubtedly will be
a rough affair.
Cazeau has been wrestling for ten
years, and some years ago he de
feated Raoul De Rouen in a match
in Montreal, which was billed for the
go-as-you please championship.
Balakovitch Routed.
London, Nov. 29. The Russian
soviet forces operating ffgainst Gen
eral Balakovitch, at the head of anti
bolshevik forces which remained in
Uhe field after the Russo-Polish ar
Tmistice, have pushed the remnants of
the Balakovitch troops into tne
marsh district to the northwest 'of
Mozyr, it was announced in Sunday's
official statement from Moscow, re
ceived today. The pursuit of the re
treating insurgents is continuing.
Michigan Gridster
Plays Four Years on
Team; Never Injured
Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 29. An
gus Goetz, captain of the University
of Michigan foot ball team for the
past twb years, and who holds the
distinction of having played more
minutes for Michigan than any other
player in the university's history, will
be lost to the tram next season
because of graduation.
Captain Goetz played four years
for Michigan, the last three seasons
in the tackle position and the first
year at end. He is the first Michigan
player to captain the team two years.
Perhaps his most notable distinc
tion lies in the fact that no time has
been taken out for him duritw? any
game in the four years that he has
been in the Michigan machine. He
was a member of the 1918 All-Western
eleven. He is a medical student
and a native of Sault.Ste. Marie,
Mich.

Judge Landis Doesn't
Want to Be Hailed as
Dictator Nor Savior
cnicago, Nov. jy. the most im
portant matter in the welfare of "the
national game" is the complete di
vorcing trom it of the Kambline ele
men, Judge K. M. Landis, new head
or organized Dase balK said today,
Judge Landis attended the Army
Navy foot ball Kame vesterdav.
"I don't want to be hailed as a dic
tator nor a savior," he said. "What
I am seeking to learn is the best
things to be done, and I want the
help of everybody with the best in
terests ot the game at heart."
He saia he had no orofound or
deeply mysterious schemes for deal
ing with problems of the game, but
emphasized his determinationi o
maKe tne game clean.
"The co-operation of base ball
players and the civil authorities to
help to eliminate crookedness," he
said. "If more stringent laws are
needed to prevent wrong dOrhir in
base ball they can be effected
through either federal of state stat
utes.'V
Prospects Bright
For Goo(l Quintet
Four Veterans Will Return to
Basket Ball Fold at Penn
. State I'his Year. J-
State College, Pa., Nov. 29. Dith
the ringing down of the final curtain
on the 1920 foot ball season, interest
is now turning to the three great
winter sports at Penn State basket
ball, wrestling and , boxing. Al
though classed as minor SDorts. the
indoor teams are supported almost
as well as are the three major spprt
teams foot ball, base ball and
track. Many of the foot ball play
ers will soon be found engaged in
the indoor contests.
Varsity basket ball candidates are
to be called -out on Monday, when
Cpach Dutch Hermann will be on
hand to look over the material. Bill
Mullan, the sensational forward of
last year's . team, is the onlv man
who will not be on hand this year,
and, with four veterans, Hermann
should turn out another great team.
He will have Captain Killinger and
Haines, the two foot ball stars, as
veteran guards, with Replogle, the
giant center, and Wolfe, last year s
captain and forward. Wilson, Rit
ner atid Ritts, strong substitutes last
year, 'and Koehler from the fresh
man five, are expected o battle for
the remaining position. .
ljie wrestling situation is now
quite so promising, for Coach Lewis
will have but three veterans to start
with. Captain Detar is expected to
wrestle in his 4 old class at' 135
pounds, arfd he is almost sure to re
capture his intercollegiate title.
Mowrer,' in the 150-pound class, and
Farley, heavyweight, are the other
veterans.. v,Qoach Lewis has some
excellent material to drJw from for
the remaining positions, however,
and-his ability to develop a green
man, in the course of one season, is
well known. He will be assisted by
Quinlan, former Springfield Y. M.
C. A. wrestling captain.
Dick Harlow. Bezdek s right hand
man during foot bail season will be
in charge of the boxing team again
this year. Penn State was one of
the first institutions to take up the
ring game and it has become vastly
popular up here. The failure of
hHicks" Friedman, the star 125
pounder, to return to college was a
hard blow to the team, for in two
yea,rs the .Pittsburgh boy had not
been defeated. Captain Kahley will
box at 115 pounds, Cooperis back
in the 145-pound class, Aiken in the
160-pound class and big Clarence
Bock, of foot 'ball fame, is expected
to handle the heavyweiffht diyision.

State Tennis Meet
To Be Staged Early
Annual Nebraska Tourna
ment Will Take Place at
Field Club Next July.
N I -
The state tenni tournament will
be held earlier than usual next year,
Guy H. Williams, chairman of the
Field club tennis committee, an
nounced yesterday. The tournament,
which is staged by the Field club, is
usually held about the middle of
August, but that is too late for many
of the tennis sharks of the state to
enter the annual affair. v
It is planned to hold the tourna
ment ab6ut the end of July in order
to accommodate more of the tennis
enthusiasts of the state. The exact
date has not been decided.
Williams expects, to hold the city
tournament a week or two before the
state me"et in order (to allow more
of Omaha's racquet 'weilders to get
into shape for the big event. The
city tourney will probably be held
the first week in July.
Tt is Hoped that a junior city tour
nament, Which was not held last year
because of conflicting dates, may be
held next summer. The junior tilt is
usually heldNhe first week in Sep
tember, and is open to all tennis fol
lowers of the city uiwler 17 years of
age. Some young member of the
Field club is wanted to undertake
the management of the. tourney.
All indications point to a very
successful season next summer for
tennis followers. Williams has been
negotiating with several of the prom
inent tennis men of i the Pacific
coast to stop in Omaha on their way
east, next summer, and give exhi
bition matches. Nothing definite
ha$ been arranged, however.

Smith of Coughdrop university, is

Emulsion hall, grabs the i moke

Old-timers are familiar with hi pic

Scott of Emulsion liall played
four years on his varsity team. He
started as a por boy. His last game
for Emulsion was marred by the fact
thatjpmc payroll thieves swiped the
team's wages five minutes before
the game.
But Scott was a game bird. He
played his last game fo Emulsion
hall just as hard as if he were getting
paid for it. That's the real alma
mater spirit and one that modern
collegians can well imitate.
He makes the All-American for
all time. That's a life sentence. But
he deserves nothing less.

they have just received a solid car
load of lanlac, containing 30,000
bottles, to supply tfie large and rap
idly growing demand for this well-

The fact that approximately 457,-
585 bottles of Tan lac have been sold
and distributed by this firm since its
introduction in this state a little
over two years ago is a business
item that will, no doubt, attract at
tention and be read with widespread
intereSTs
As a matter of fact, Tanlac has al
ready become the sensation of the
drug rade in the United States and
Canada. In the entire history of the
drug trade in this country no other
medicine has ever made a record
worthy of comparison with the truly
phenomenal sales ' record made by
Tanlac.
The greatest drug firms of the
country have voluntarily come for
ward and stated in cold, plain figures
the ecord-ireaking sales every
where. The tyiormous popularity of
Tanlac is the one-great outstanding
proof of its merit. No remedy of
less than superlative quality could
possibly attain such a huge salesrec
ord nor g&ins, as has Tanlac, the un
qualified endorsements of thousands
of well-known men and women who
stand for the best inN their communi
ties. '
The greatest test of any medicine
is the repeat sales it enjoys, lan
lac's phenomenal record has-been
possible because of the fact that men
and women who buy one botP in
variably return for the second. Tan
lac accomplishes actual results and
so, almost at once, wins the 'firm
faith of its takers.
