i V ft' 10 Pucclik Lost to Nebraska Grappling Squad All-America CridWr and IIutLer Heavyweight Cliamp Unable to Meet Cyclone Wrestler. Lincoln. ln. 25' (Special.) John I'ncelik will not accompany He Corulimkcr grapplrrs to Ames . I'ridav for the second Wesltrn In- lercillfgiale mert in which the Husk cr will tng-ige. t'ucelilc, Huskrr S n J tar and all-American football player, represented Nebraska at Northwestern lat Saturday in the heavyweight division. No one would meet him to Hathaway, Northwest ern' middleweight, alto Western In icrcollriate champion, took the huge fluskcr on. 1 he match latr d but 1 few niitt utcs Tucflik"! left arm, which had been injured in football, flipped out of the socket at the shoulder when he wai hurled to the mat. He suf fcred a great deal from the injury and Hathaway was awarded the match. Htft temporarily, l'urcelik is of the nut game. It is IiikIiI probable that Ber ciui.t. I'melik's side kick at guard , m the Nebraska arid team, will take the All-American s place at Ames. The loss of l'ucclik for this match is the source of great disappoint ment to J)r. R. O. Clapp. coacn ot the wrcstline team. "I had hoped to match l'ucclik of Nebraska against Wallace of Ames." said the llu.vker wrestling coach, they would be a bis drawing card and it uniilil be an interesting match." ,.. Hucelik was amateur champion of Nebraska in the heavyweight division iii 1919. His ability to grapple was developed in the clays of his youth when be lived at Dodge, Neb. While a youngster, l'ucclik used to tilav in the Stecher evmnasium and troiic with no others than the fa mous Tony and Joe. Here he learned his grappling stunts. He is by far the best representative that Ne braska could put on the mat in the Western Intercollegiate and it is a loss to enthusiastic sport fans both at Ames and Nebraska, that Fucelik will not be able to go up against Wallace Saturday afternoon. Doyle Reinstates Omaha Scrapper Billy Rolfe, Omaha welter, who was suspended for. a period of six months by the state boxing com mission last September, was re instated today ty Boxing Commis sioner Luin Doyle.

Ihe bout was 'Boyle's first, fa these parts, and in contests since then he had demon strated he is a human punching bag. He has a record of, never being knocked out. Boyle's showing in recent bouts influenced the- commission to lift Rolfe's suspension, it was said. Doyle made no statement in an nouncing the Omaha welter's rein statement.

Uni versity of Illinois wrestling coach, in a close match here lt night Greb Has Most Troublesome Weight for One Who Fights Pittsburgh Boxer Is Too lg and Too Little. Harry Greb, the great Pittsburgh boxer, and bis manager, Oorge F.nget, are still doing a lot of won dering as to wether or not Johnny Wilton will ever content to going through with hi agreement to meet Harry in I battle for the middle weight championhip. While Harry inii.ts that he ran make the middle weight limit without any dirticulty the fight fans throughout the coun try are skeptical about Harry mak ing the required poundage for more than one Uattle. They argue that Greb would have tome trouble bringing himself sown for a match with Wilson, and even if be did and grabbed the crown from the left-liiuded champ, he could not atav in that division very long and be strong. They think he would soon have to relinquish hi title and hop back agaiu among the heavier boys. Greb is constructed along the lines of the famous Joe Cboynski, so far as weightjs concerned. The I'UUburaher is probably too heavy for the middle-diittance gang and not quite big enough for the men in the heavyweight class, or tveivthe light Iieavvweiirht Bans'. Jn nearly all his fights Greb has Jecn compelled to spot bis opponents all thc way from 10 to 20 pounds. Battling with the heavies has been his specialty. As a matter of fact thc ilopcsters will tell you that Greb is not very good when confronted with an opponent of his own size. The big fellows have been his special dish for several years, yet it is believed that lie rarely weighs more than 105 pounds in any of his battles. Of course, the question i can . Harry Greb train down to 160 pounds for Wilson and be strong enough to beat the latter for the middleweight title? Can He Make Weight? When Choynski was in there bat tling he was too small for the big boys and too big for the small fel lows. The Greb situation appears to be a parallel case. Old Joe would walk in there with the heavi est men in the field just as Greb Association Club , Against Draft Chicago, Tan. 25. Club owners of the American association today de clined to enter into any draft agree ment with the major leagues. The proposal for the restoration of thc draft, carrying with it a price of 57,500 lof each player drafted was unanimously , voted down. The major leagues, if they desire to obr tain star players from the American association,' will have to purchase them outright. The proposal to amend the agree ment between the major and minor leagues relating to the draft came from Judge Landis, commissioner of baseball; President Heydler of the National league and Ban Johnson of the American league constituting the baseball advisory council. Judge Landis held that restoration of the draft was necessary so that baseball players should advance in their pro fession. . The American association mag nates, however, declined to accept the proposal. They declared that they could obtain a better price for any stars developed by selling them rather than being forced to accept the $7,500 draft price. The American association is the second of the three class AA leagues to reject the proposal, the Pacific Coast league having voted it down several days' ago.
