JOli STECHER, the pride of
Dodge, Neb., and former heavy
weight champion wrestler, rum
bled into town yesterday in his au
tomobile. ,
The exact purpose of Joe's visit
ta the city of hills and smooth
pavement was not divulged by the
former champion, save that he was
looking for Charlie Hanson, "Farm
er" ' Burn's latest find among the
"bone-crushers."
"Where's this Charlie person,"
yelled Joe. "A short time ago his
manager' blossomed forth with a
sweeping challenge to wrestle any
one in the world. Well, I ain a
member of this little ol' world and
am in, good standing, so why
shouldn't I accept his challenge?
"Hanson wants to wrestle me on
a winner-take-all basis. Tell him
for me that his offer sounds good
to yours truly, and if. he wants to
wrestle me on that basis all he has to
do is name the date and place., I
will be there.
"Furthermore, . if . Hanson's
manager toots his - horn and says
that I must build up a reputation
before meeting Charlie, tell him
that's the bunk. If Hanson and I
were to stage a Voting contest to-
morrow I would receive nearly .
three times as many votes as s
Charlie. That's how popular I am .
with the mat fans."
Joe really wants to wrestle Han
son. He believes ". such a match
would draw a banner crowd at the
ball ipark this ''summer.
Steelier ''dented reports that his
arm Vwas ."gone," and saidsthat his
wing was1 as good as eyer, which
was. pretty good once, v ; ,7
When you hear two men arguing
about golf or baseball in a Far
nam street car it isn't difficult to
' tell which one is wrong. He is
talking louder. '
Barney Burch,' owner of the Oma
ha Western' league Buffaloes, arrived
in town yesterday morning to help
in preparing for the opening day's
program at the local plant Friday
afternoon.
The Buffaloes' boss spent Wednes
day afternoon giving the park the
once over and complimenting George
Leidy, trainer, and Rhine Mohr, con
cession' mogul ; on their work in
Britton May Fight
and Leonard Soon, Writes Manager
Dan Morgan, who' counts the shek
els at the box office white Jack Brit
ton performs in the ring, writes that
the champion may fight Gene Tun
ney, lightweight title holder, and
Benny Leonard, lightweight cham
pion, in the near future. The bout
with Leonard is "practically closed,"
he says.
His letter follows:
New York. April S4, 1922.
Sporting- Editor, Tho Bee, Omaha, Neb.
Dear Sir: Britton will be In great
shape when he step Into the ring- with
Cowboy Padgett on May 7, for Britton
la never out of shape. He ia always
expecting the young strong boys to try
and win his championship.
Britton has whipped every welter and
middleweight In the country and he is
now tj?ing to get Gene Tunney to box
him for the light heavyweight cham
pionship of America. Although Britton
Is only a 115-round boxer, he is strong
and clever enough to meet heavy
weights. Britton Is practically matched with
Benny Leopard at an open-air show that
will take place here. In June. The bout
will prove who is the most scientific
boxer In the world today.
Mike Gibbons. Facky McFarland and
many others' say that Britton Is with
out an equal as a boxer, and will whip
Leonard to & certainty. Jack will try
and convince the Omaha boxing fans
Schlaifer and Padgett Matched
to Fight at Davenport ,May 12
Morrie Schlaifer and Cowboy Padgett have been matched to fight at
Davenport, la., May 12.
Both boxers were, given a fiat guarantee of $1,200.
The match 'was made for Schlaifer by Johnny Creeley, who once
more is handling the "Kid."
The bout is expected to be the biggest drawing card ever put on in
the Iowa city. .
Creeley is negotiating for a bout .for Schlaifer ,at Peoria, I1L, with
Jock Malone of St. Paul ,

"drcssiiiff un" the ffrantktanrt for t
dressing up" the grandstand for the
opening day s game.
The team lost another game yes
terday. However, there 55 games
yet to be played.
A good long rest between races
always helps an athlete. Fer in
stance: . , '
Eleven years ago Clarence De
Mar won the Boston Marathon, and
on April 19 he won it again.
Ray Alvis, manager of "Cowboy"
Padgett and Roy Conley, left, yes
terday for Minneapolis, where Con
ley, substituting for the "Cowboy,"
fights Billy Ryan Friday night. .
Padgett was scheduled to meet
Ryan, but'when the former signed to
meet Champ Jack Britton her May
5, his manager very quickly substi
tuted Conley.
According to a press dispatch re
ceived from Paris yesterday. Jack
Deropsey intends to., visit' tho '
Rhineland and give an exhibition
for the "Doughboys," who are still
walking up and down the banks of
. the ol' blue Rhine river.
If Dempsey had been in France
and Germany in 1917-18 he would
have witnessed the "Doughboys"
in an honest-to-goodness fight, no
exhibition.
Eneland was disappointed because
jack Dempsey didn't look as feroci
ous as Joe Beckett.
Jt all depends upon the purse, ihe
greater the purse, the greater Demp
sey s ferocity.
The San Francisco Bulletin says
that Walter J. Travis found the
; greens in California so heavy that
it was necessary' to ; putt, with a.
;. midiron.
"Bob" Christie, Happy Hollow
"pro," says: . j
: "Judging from the distance some ,
of the Happy Hollow players get
on their putts on the course, they
presumably use their drivers."
That's enough, "Bob."
Jack Lelivelt, former manager of
the Omaha club, has started on his
slugging rampage again this sea
son. In the first dozen games Capt.
Lelivelt, skipper of the Tulsa Oiler
crew, rapped the pellet for an average
of .440. :.
Not so bad, eh?
And someone remarked that Jack
couldn't hit.
Gene Tunney
that he Is a real champion when he be
gins to swap punches with the local
champ on the 7th. Sincerely,
DAN MORGAN.
