Wrestling Fans
on the Qul Vive
Over Big Match
Look for Great Tussle Between
Zbyszko and Westergsard at
the Auditorium.

wrestling fans are on the qui vive over
the coming match at the Auditorium. when
Zby szko, the giant PolandeI who copquerec
the Frencbman here a month ago and Jess
Westergaard the Danish wonder from Des
Moines. will meet for blood. Westergaard
has the scalp Of De Rouen to his credit.
Judging from the advance interest In the
match the Auditorium will be called upon
to take care of one of its largest crowds
Westergaard has been growing in popu-
larlty with the Omaha fans since his first
appearance here three years ago. The 'arge
number Of friends he has formed in this
city have watched him grow in power and
scientific skill during this ;ime and have
reioiced in the clean and manly fashion In
which he has conducted all his matches.
Most of his matches rave been against
men older and more experienced than III
self and In all of these WeStergao.d has
always given a good account Of himself.
The fans know that when Westergaard
enters the ring they will see a wrestling
match, and even If he is beaten, 1t will only
be after the hardest kind of work by an
ADLER opponent. He has many hackers IN
Omaha who think he can throw the Pole
although Zbyszko won many admirers by
the splendid showing he made against DE
Rouen, when he actually toyed with the
big Frenchman. There Is one thing GER
tain and that is that 1t will be a strenuous
match from start to finish.
In addition to the main event Manager
Gillian has arranged a couple OF good pre-
limlnaries which should arouse considerable
interest. Big Bill Hokuf will meet j. L.
McCabe, the heavyweight policeman, and
Jack Toliver will go against George RUBY

Criticism Of President Of Iowa State
Board Of Education Resented
by Many

DIES MONIES Ia. Feb ~26.-(Speclal.) D
Strong protestI are being entered from. all
corners Of the state to the harsh criti-
cisn Of intercollegiate athletics mad re-
Gently by James N. Trewin' president of
tn. Iows Board Of Education controlling
the University of Iowa the lowe State
Agricultural schooi and the Iowa State
Teachers college.
Coaches and educators combine emphati-
cally. stating that intercollegiate athletics
are among the best means Of building up
the mental and moral sides OF the student
in Americas colleges
THE man who says that intercollegiate
athletics ENCOURAGE drinking, gambling
and %loafing,' said Coach John L Griffith
Of Drake university, rs grossly ignorant
Of the true facts Of the case. It can be
easily proved that intercollegiate athletics
has raised the moral standar of the col
leges tremendously in the last two or three
decades. 1 would prefer to have the col
lege man excel In football than in the art
Of putting another man under the table, as
was the case in this country some time
ago, and is true in Germany today"
The Missouri Valley games committee
members in this city are outspoken.
Sports in colleges would be a flat failure
but for intercollegiate athletics" said Guy
Brewer, the local Ames representative.
The clash of different institutions slim
ulates the interest in athletics and develops
the right kind Of spirit. College athletics
would never exist without the intercol-
legiate features. Athletics have made men
out of former loafers.
1.-THE man who condemns intercollegiate
athletics does not know what he is talking
about" said Reson Jones. the Drake repre-
sentative of the committee. He cannot
know the conditions intimately or he would
not talk in thai manner"
Dean w. A. Warmer OF Des Moines col
lege says that the high schOOl situation is
the one that hurts the college. Athletics
are over-emphasized in the high school.
according to his view.
President Hill NJ. Bell of Drake univer-
sity is on record as favoring intercollegiate
competition and President George (. Mac
Lean OF the University Of Iowa is known
to favor intercollegiate athletic contests.
