men and women voluntarily giving
themselves to it was not as satisfac-
tory as it should be.

Wrestling


Only a few days more and the best
two little gladiators of the wrestling
game will contest for the lightweight
championship. George Bothner and
Alex Swanson are the rivals, one the
legitimate lightweight champion and
the other the king of the welter-
weights. This match. though, will
be for the lightweight championship.
Bothner demanded that the Swede
make 1873 pounds ringside. This the
Swede readily consented to, and Both
ner will stake his title on the result.
The match will be held at Grand
Central Palace, Lexington e
and Forty-third street, New York,
Friday night. The report that George
Bothner has Prof. O'Brien working
with him did not cause Swanson any
uneasiness. On the contrary, he
thinks that if Bothner tries jiu-jitsu
tricks on him that the match will ter
inmate sooner thantif he kept within
the cules of strict catch-as-catch-can.
Il exploded the game of jiu-jitsu
when I defeated Higashi, the Japan
csc expert" said Swanson. After
his defeat Higashi went abroad and
the other opponents of the supposed
fearful bone-crushing art have kept
up a painful silence.
"Bothner had better stick to the
game at which he won a champion
ship and at which he is considered a
wonder. | a beat him at that game
and will upset any theory he may
have of the Japanese game if he tries
it."
Bothner, on the other hand,
keeps plugging away with Prof.
O'Brien, who has undoubtedly the
most knowledge of jiu-jitsu of any
man who ever tried or showed it in
this country. He vas the first man
to introduce it into America, and it
is credited to him as being the first
man to introduce it into the police
department of the Land of the Ris-
ing Sun when he was inspector of po-
lice at Yokotan.
