At TERMATH OF
WRESTLING BOUT
GOTCH SIMPLY WAS THE BEST
MAN-HACk SAYS HE MAY
TRY AGAIN IF AMERICAN
PEOPLE WANT TT.

Chicago, April 5.--To the never
quit" sport lovers of American wrest-
ling. the termination of the Gotch-
Hackensmidt match was a bitter dis
appointment. The Russian quit not
through fear of his opponent, but be-
.cause nature had revoited and the in
evitable end lay in defeat.
1t was triumph for natural strength
and American science over artificial
development, crushing tactics and
strength Gotch stood out trained to
the minute. Crafty and wary, Hack
stripped in form that showed a lack
Of vital preparation, a tribute TO his
vanity in Understanding his adycr'
|sary. He knew as much Of cntch.as-
catch can Us he needed, he WAS cool
but never in his unchecked career had
he met an opponent so rough, SO
elusive and crafty.
Never once did Gotch reinquish the
defensive until the fire had died from
Hacks attack, one hour and fifty min
utes from the time the bell tapped,
until the giants Topped to the met
from upright graphing.
Gotch went into the ring smeared
with cocoanut butter and this, with
the fast work and heat from the NOV
ing picture rehectors, soon made him
an eel-like apparition that Hack
couldn't solve. After an hours
bulling both men were bathed in sweat
and Hacks vitality eDDlng with the
struggles left him cold and dry when
he quit.
Gotch roughed him at every oppor
tunity, stuck his thumbs into the lions
eyes and disguised his admirers at
times. The Russian bore it in stolid
silence.
His eyes today are in terrible shape
After thirty minutes work Gotch
gaining courage and confidence
tainted the Russian.
How do you like it as far as you've
gomez"
who told YOU you're a champion?
Which side Of the ring will you
, Jump out Of Hack?" and 50 on, until
like the wolf that chases its prey until
the red tongue Tolls out, Gotch lured
on the wavering Hack.
The world knows a new champion
who won il on the square
And Hack says today: MY strength
seemed TO slip from me; ! must rest
and take it easy. and then if the Amer
lean people want it. maybe III try
again"

Ruuoir.

Paris April 5.-Worry and the ten
dency Of Catholics toward modernism
are slowly but surely ruining the once
robust constitution of Pope Plus, says
the physician of his holiness, accord
ing to an italian paper.
The prosecutions to which the
church has to submit in France Italy
and Spain are a source of grief to the
holy father, but he does not think that
the acts or deeds of men can destroy
an institution of divine origin. 1t Is
the insidiOus poison Of morednism be
fears. because he sees that even the
clergy are becoming affected by It.
1t is the fear Of modernism spread
ing among the bishops and priests
which will kill Pope Plus, and neither

age.
