Joe Steelier, Dodge, Neb., heavy
weight grappler and one time king
of the heavy bone-crushers," be
lieves that Charley Hanson is one
tough "nut."
Joe and Charlie liave been matched
for a finish wrestling match, winner-lake-all,
in Omaha, July 4, or within
10 days followjng July 4.
In the following letter Steelier in
forms us that he is hard at work
trailing for his coming bout:
Dodge, Neb, May II.
Ralph Wiigner, Sports Editor. Omaha
Hoe. Omaha. Neb. Dear "Wag:" I bate
staVed training; for my earning content
tilth t'harlla Hhimah. I am wnrklnv wltb
Tity brother Tony, Frank Bush and two
other hea vj weight wrestlers of Dodge,
fc'iich morning I take a long hike.
I wa a spectator at the recent Hanson
MHilll bout l OinaVa, and while there
got a good line on Hanson. 1 believe I
can beat him.
The coming match la attracting a lot
nf attention In nay home town and there
will he to or S Dodge fan at the ring
side when I crawl through the ropes.
Hoping to are nu la the near future, I
remain, (Signed) JOE STECUEB.
Has Joe Stecher slipped, or has he
been following the powers to be in
the wrestling game? This question
is being asked by several well-known
Omaha mat fans. ..
When Stecher meets Hanson, the
best man will win. The former
wet Id's heavyweight champ is of the
opinion that it will not take him long
to beat Hanson, friends of Joe de
clare that the "body scissors" artist
is the greatest wiestler of the uay
ati.l that the coming. Hanson match
will bear out their statement.
Whether Joe Stecher, once world's
heavyweight champion, has' slipped
from the wrestling throne, or has fell
irto the clutches of the 'trust," will
be decided when he meets Hanson
at the City. auditorium.
Babe Ruth is beginning to cheer
up a little. . With May 20 hoving
into view the king of swat will
soon be out in his togs trying to .
dispose of the usurper, Kenneth
Williams.
"Bud" Logan, Omaha welter, and
Ever Hammer, Chicago, may meet
in a 10-round bout here May 26. The
match, if stsfged, will be a semi
windup affair to the Schlaifcr
O'Keefe 10-round main event bout.
Although Hammer is fighting in
the lightweight class, Logan has
agreed to make the lightweight limit
and do battle, with the clever little
Chicago blonde. ' -
Now that the big Kentucky derby
is run and won some 200,000 or so,
losers around the country, will be
telling how they would have
cleaned up a fortune had they fol
lowed their own hunch and not the
other fellow's. ;
1 Charlie Trimble, secretary of the
Ak-Sar-Ben Exposition company, at
tended the Kentucky Derby last Sat
urday. Trimble writes that the big
race was run under ideal weather
conditions.
The secretary of the coming Ak-
Sar-Ben race meeting, also informs
us that he has made arrangements
with Kentucky horseman tor two
carloads of runners to be shipped to
the local race meet.
If "Kid" Schlaifcr is matched with
Champion Jack Britton for a ten-
round bout, Johnny Creely, manager
of the local welter should see that
his protege gets at least a month of
rest before the fight.
Schlaifer had a month rest before
meeting "Cowboy" Padgett. The
"Kid " Beat Padgett' so bad in six
rounds that Referee Ed Smith gave
the fight to the Omaha lad in the
sixth stanza. -
What the "Kid" needed was rest.
Give him a little rest in between
fights and he will give a better show
ing against better opponents.

No Matter What the Weather. '
If you have any ambition to turn
in low scores this season I earnestly
urge upon you a fixed schedule of
practice which includes playing a
certain minimum of strokes with
each club. Nothing pays bigger re
turns. 'Let us assume that you are
ready for the first day's scheduled
practice.' The weather happens to
be miserably bad; it rains hard and
you picture' the course as the least
desirable spot in the world on such
a day. It is on -just such an oc
casion that the earnestness of a man's
desire to make a good golfer is test
ed. It makes a big difference in the
outcome whether the weather keeps
you at home, or you study it to
minimize your schedule so that you
can play or practice, or both. It is
not particularly important whether
you play only two holes, or hit only
two shots each with all your clubs.
The transcendently important thing
is that you follow your schedule to
the best of your ability under the
weather conditions.
It may be that you have found the
very idea you were seeking in those
few shots, and it is more probable
that you have found nothing, but the
big thing is that you have begun to
do a certain amount each day or
week as the case may be.
A ' man must practice, rain or
shine. A good player must become
accustomed to all kinds of weather
for the premier championships run
a whole week, and all varieties of
weather are likely to come one's way
during that time. Therefore I advise
the beginning golfer to try to keep
his schedule up, or at least a piece of

Omaha Goblins Win
The Omaha Goblins, colored "pro"
baseball team, shut out the Whiting

especially Hilton, was the feature of

The Goblins scored their two
scores in the sixth inning.
it, without overdue care as to the
weather. ' v , ' -.
In all large cities golf courses are very
far out, and many a time 1 have discon
solately left the city in a heavy downpour
of rata, but the further I went the lighter
and more cheerful became the outlook,
and by the time the club was reached
all rain had ceased. Out then came my
Irons and I hit them every one accord
ing to my carefully studied plan.
The victory Is not to be easily dis
couraged. Therefore I caution you to keep
up your courage under disheartening con
ditions. Improvement cannot always be
detected at once, and on aoine days one
actually seems to go backward. It ta
something, however, to discover that we
are doing something wrong, for . the
chances are that when we recognize a mis
take we can find the remedy for It.
The beginner, or the veteran, for that
matter, must never forget thst to get the
most out of practice he should make every
shot with the same seriousness and

And It Is the thrill and satisfaction of
playing well that Is one of the great

who really masters the game derives
from its Joys and satisfactions that the
Indifferent player never knows exist. On
gets out of golf all that he puts Into it.
