WRESTLING FAKERS A
MENACE TO SPORTDOM
Invasion of Foreign Mat Artists
Begins and Public Is Ready
for HoodWinking

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 6.-The
regular annl7al invasion of this
country by foreign wrestlers has be-
gun. Hacken.sChmidt, Zbyszko and
Mahmout are among the army of
grapplers being imported. Within the
next few weeks we can expect to see
the bills announcing wrestling matches
in this and other cities. The public
will pay high prices to see these men
go through the campaign as ordered
by the wrestling trust, and then meet
Frank Gotch in n championship bait
tie, Gotch claims to have given the
title to Henry OrdGman Of Minneapolis
because Ordeman beat Cutler. Orde-
man is a good wrestler, but when he
loses one or two matches Gotch VIII
come out of retirement again and meet
the foreigner who happens to be the
better of the lot through having been
declared winner Of the various
matches, even if lie is not the better
man in reality.
If wrestling in this country was
really on the level and the best man
would he allowed to win every match
it would be a great game. Falling has
killed the racing game in many places
and foot racing, prize lighting and
other sports where there has been fax
ing 1t is the same with wrestling. 1t
is almost impossible to get a wrestler
10 WreStle on the level. There nave
been fake wrestling matches pulled off
in every city in the country, For eX-
ample, a certain manager WAS here
last week. A match was arranged. He
went to the person who was to Wrestle
against his contestant and tried to
arrange it 50 that his contestant would
lose on a foul purpOsely and they
could arrange a finish match later in
Convention hall, where they could
make money. Fine for the public,
which gets buncoel in this way every
month by a couple of fake Nlcstlcrs.
Last year several wrestiers quit be-
cause of alleged injuries. Physicians
examined them and found that they
We're not injured. But they quit just
the same. Naturally enough. They
had been ordered to quit, ana obeyed
orders.
Now, why do thcy obey such orders
This is the question the public natur-
ally asks. Simply because they are
told that if they do not obey the or
ders they will be blackllsted by the
wrestling trust and win be given no
more matches where they can make
good money. That Is the reason for
so much wrestling being on the level.
The wrestlers are forced to lay down
or quit ON the pretense of injuries.
OF course many viii say that they
can get matches without being under
the orders of the trust. But they will
find that this is impossible, as tho
wrestlers are controlled by this trust.
Wrestlers, as rule, are not any too

Manager McCarey is feeling around
for a match between Jim Flynn and
Tony Caponi, and if negotiations are
finally closed the bout will be staged

OF being seldom played outside the

We will presume that five men
propose to indulge in a friendly gam

stakes shall be a nickel from each
player, % cents in all. they take
their places round table and put
down their coins. Then a sixth man
who acts as umpire. lays upon each

game begins. The climate being hot,
the room will doubtless be full of
flies, which will Immediately begin to
buzz round the sugared nickels,
though for some time, with the u.s.
ual perversity of their race. they re-
refuse to pitch on any individual one,
which naturally adds to the excite
ment, for the man whose coin is dis
tinguished by fly first setting upon
it pockets the stakes.
Pitch and toss with nickels, though
still played, has lost much of its old
popularity, because nautical inge-
nuity has devised many games better
suited 10 gambling, and almost every
ship has one particular mode OF gam
ing quite apart from that of any
other vessel. Bucking the strang

high seas, and consists of betting on
the nationality of the next vessel
sighted, the winner, of course, TAX

Even prize-fighting is not over

Sailors do not always gamble with

man may have goods on credit from
the canteen, and this is called his
shot" He is not permitted to
leave the ship until he is out of the
canteen's debt, so creditors will ac-
cept q share of comrades " shot"
as readily as they would check on
bank. In other words, this meth
cd is equivalent to mourning one
debt in order to clear up another.
1t is seldom that sailor turns out
to be an inveterate gambler. because
his opportunities for parting with
his spare cash in this manner are
not so numerous as they were in
days when gambling was carried on
above deck and under the eyes of the
officers, who looked up and said
nothing. Moreover, such things as
card-sharping and cheating are un-
known, for the subsequent existence
of him who tried to swindle bis
mates would be made unbearable;
SO if a sailor loses heavily by gamb-
ling he at least knows that he has
done so in fair play.
