Big Bill Hokuf
Star in Wrestle
Thursday Night
He Will Try to Throw Three Men in
Hour at Westergaard-De Rouen
Preliminaries.

Big Bill Hokuf. like a certain dlstin-
guished Roman, is ambitious. Bill Is the
boy who went against Gotch the last time
he was in town and while he didn't win
the worlds championship away from the
Iowa farmer, did indicate that he had some
wrestling skill.
Well, this same Bill will do things over
at the Auditorium Thursday night when
Jess Westergaard and Raoul de Rouen meet
for the first time IN n finish, catch-as-
catch-can wrestle. In the preilminaries
Herr Hokuf will undertake to pin TO the
mat in one hour three Of his honorable
contemporaries, namely, Jack Meyers, Jack
Grando and c. Luther Grove. The last
named gentleman. despite his forid cog
noalen. is not a student OF literature, nor
yet Of the ethics of parlor conduct, no
matter II he does part his name in the
middle. c. Luther is a wrestler and they
say a hot one at that. At any rate, while
It Is commendable in any man to set his
mark high, Bill Hokuf has cut out a mighty
big nights work for himself, one which IL
he ~accomplishes, will distinguish him as
some %grappler.
Manager Gillian of the Auditorium be-
lieves-and perhaps not without Justifica-
tion-that these preliminaries will be the
most interesting of the season. Jack Meyers
is the fellow who undertook to throw
young Schwager Of Calhoun a couple Of
weeks ago twice in an hour and Grando
is said to be as good as Meyers. Hokuf
is much larger than any Of these men and
of powerful build. Gotch predicts great
things for him some day.
Westergaard had been delayed in reach
ing Omaha, but will be in ahead of the
mighty Frenchman. OF all the matches
that have been held at the Auditorium in
the last three years this one has more
animus IN it than any. The men are very
sore at each other and are sure to put up
a red hot tug-of-war.

lieved it would eventually bring about a
right solution Of vexed questions.
The speaker being a prominent member
Of the Illinois bar. and one of the profess
sors of the Lincoln law school, spoke OF
governmental advance from a judicial
viewpoint. His connection with an insti-
tuition of this character also gave him a
keen appreciation of the aims of Creighton
university and he spoke eloquently of its
possibilities in the growing west.
Grace before the banquet was said by
the president of the university, the Very
Rev. Eugene A. Magevney. S. j. During
the evening music was given by an orches-
ira conducted by Prof. Heffner.

able given in the city during the season
and the prevalent good feeling and cam

all the speakers was evidence of one very
important element underlying the success
OF the Creighton university which makes
it as an alma mater so dear to the stu
dents who have passed through it's halls.
Many members of the governors staff
were in attendance.
The menu cards and toast lists were
souvenirs of the day containing portraits
and reproductions of autographs of Ed

Governor A. c. Shallenberger, speaking Of
the cost of education to the state. con-
trasted what the Creighton brothers had
done in this respect for the country.
They did not" he said, believe in
founding the caste Of money, but in doing
something that would be for the benefit
of the country as a whole and would keep
their names ever before the minds Of their
countrymen as promoters of what was for
the good of the comon country" Y
The great problem of the future will be
the equal adjustment of conditions be-
tween capital and labor. That question
will be settled in the west, and
to have it properly settled we must
have an educated community. When we
think of this. we must realize the value
Of what the Creighton brothers have done
in founding the university.
