 T am in the best of trim," declared Gotch. Hand Twill bel right on edge for MT Rogers after four or five days gym- nasium work in Buffalo. You see, have been training off and on for two or three months, and being fellow who, never takes drink of intoxicating beverage, I never get into what you could call poor form.
 q don't see where Rogers figures to beat me He has been wrestling only a year and a half or so, and he has outweighed all of his opponents by many pounds. He is big. strong fel- low. but I don't consider him dan gerous man to tackle. I wouldn't be surprised if I should beat this big .rube" two falls within thirty or forty minutes. - It makes very little difer- ence to me which style we wrestle, for one is about the same as the other to me"
