Admirers of rough and tumble tao
tics will find plenty of amusement in
tonight's program of wrestling and
jiu-jitsu bouts which will be staged at
the Maud arena. The program will
begin at SIS. and as shown in the
above outline there will be five con-
tests. The first is arranged between
two local Japanese. who will have an
opportunity to display their knowledge
of the fine points of jiu-jitsu. In the
second bout, a Graeeo- Roman affair,
two husky young Caucasians will APP
pear, and this should be a hummer,
as both are strong and willing. Young
Togo and Young Ito will appear in the
third event, another jiu- jitsu exhibit
ton. These boys are hot after each
other, and if they possess any knowl-
edge of the game the meeting will pro-
duce a tough struggle.
In the catch as- catch-can bout,
which will be last of the preliminary
affairs, another pair of strapping white
lads will argue for individual suprem-
acy AS a whole. the program is sure
to bring out several fast and Interest,"
ing contests.
In the main event George Santell,
claimant of the middle western wrest-
ling and jiu-jitsu championships, will
clash with Shosha Yokoyama, billed as
tho champion of Japan. Yokoyama
and his opponent have been training
hard, tor each believes the other a for
midable man. Santell says he will
make the japanese expert quit cold,
and the oriental smiles and shows his
teeth modestly admitting his belief in
ultimate victory. The Japanese are
raking up all their boards of stored
away coin to bet on their representa-
tive, whom they believe to be invin-
chile.
Special rules have been adopted for
this contest as follows; mo hair
pulling, kicking, gouging or biting al
lowed; also no finger holds of any kind
