ROLLER TACKLES FRANK GOTCH

Seattle, Wash, July Frank Gotch,
the worlds champion wrestler, and Dr.
B. F. Roller of this city, one of the
most promising mat artists that have
come to the front in a long time, have
completed their work of preparation for
their match at Dreamland Rink The
bout has attracted a vast amount of at
tention and it is expected an enormous
crowd will be on hand to witness the
contest.
The record Of Champion Gotch is IA =
mfIiar to all followers of the sport.
The career of DR.. Roller is comparative
ly unknown to the general public, for
the reason that until quite recently he
has stuck to the amateur ranks. He
was born in Illinois thirty-two years
ago and is a graduate of the University
of Pennsylvania. He came to Seattle
four years ago and since then has par
ticipated in many wrestling matches
and has always come out a winner. His
first victory against a professional was
with Jack Carkeek, then champion
heavyweight of Englnd, Canada and Aus
tralia He has also defeated Farmer
Burns. Emil Klenk, Fred Beell and sew
eral others.
Dr. Roller stands six feet without
shoes and weighs 21O pounds. He is
said to have earned $4,000 by his
wrestling matches during the last six
months. Besides this he has a large
practice as a physician and surgeon.

their bout only four days away. the
Battler has commenced to raise OBJ
1ections to the conditions
He announced positively today that
the referee must not lay a hand upon
the men while they are clinched. This
seems to indicate that his plan of cam
paign is to hang on and tire Cans. At
ter a short debate, however. Referee
Jack Welsh said that he would act
strictly according to Marquis OF Queens
bury rules and would separate the men
the moment they commenced to hang
on.
Betting on the bout now makes Cans
favorite at l to 2. Even money can
also be obtained that Nelson is knocked
out within twenty-five rounds. The
original betting was that he would be
knocked out within twenty rounds. but
Bats condition has seemed so perfect
that the distance has been heightened
