Quite a crowd of enthusiasts gathered at
the Business Mems Gymnasium Thursday
morning in anticipation Of seeing good
wrestling match between the champion
heavyweight pugiist, Jehries. and the
Graeco-Roman wrestling champion, Roeber-
In this they were disappointed. as the men
did nothing but pose in front of four cam
eras for at least half an hour. In that time
they showed few different holds in assum-
ing different positions. but Of wrestling
there was none.
When the photographers had completed
their work Roeber repaired to his dressing
room. as he had spen; some time in Wig
orous bout with his wrestling partner.

Je.fries. In this latter affair every ono

squalely built, his arms so short and ms
lack of neck so apparent that novice
could see the difficulty that is before Tom
Jenkins. especially in the Graeco-Roman
bout or bouts. where no holds are allowed
below the waist
Though Roeber was great attraction 10
the spectators present, Jeffries was foi-
lowed by all eyes. and when he went to the
opposite end of the gymnasium to jump

|, noticeably of color that it cannot be said
that he is in anything like frst-class condi-
ton. Jefiries's right knee. which was hurt
while training for the Ruhlin match in
Cincinnati, is much swollen. but does not
seem to be weak for ordinary work.
Standing in repose, the champion does not
impress one as OF such great size, but when
in action his muscles stand out prominent
ly, though not as much az they should for
a man in 1irst-class shape. 1t can hardly
be expected that a man could keep in shape
while living the irregular life of an actor,
however.
