JACK R0WETT RETAINS
CHAMPIONSHIP H0NORS


Jack Rowett Of BesSemcr, success
fully defended his t'llc to the heavy
weight Cornish wrestling champion
ship in the match with Joe ziehr of
Calumet at Ironwocd Saturday even
ing. ziehr suffered az, accident after
the match had progressed but three
bitches two Of his ribs having been
broken and he was un-ble TO continue.
The match was therefore forfeited to
the iron country man. According To re-
ports which come from the ron coun-
Try, Rowett WAS in fine form and had
all the best OF the argument.
This IS the second accident which
has merred contests between these
men. In the tournament conducted in
the iron country some months ago,
Zlehr was thrown from the ring, fall
ing upon his head and suffering in
iurics which made il impossible for
him to continue. In that contest,
Rowett got one fall, which entitled
him to lay claim to the championship,
he having held that honor ever since.
1t is likely that the mixed match be-
tween Ziehr and Gunner Gronlund
which was being arranged to take
place i'm Calumet will have TO be in
definitely postponed.

BtFMAN MAY RETURN To
MEET LEhT0 IN CALUMET
Brother of Former Houghton Man
Receives Assurances From
Montana.
zBYSZKO MATCH ON MARCH |

Pearl II. Beeman, the clever middle
weight catch -catch-can wrestler,
who is well known i'm Calumet, has
telegraphed from Great Falls, Mon
tana where he is now located, to the
effect that he is willing to return to
this section to meet Karl Lehto. The
message was in answer to letter
sent by his brother who resides in
Houghton, asking permission to ar
range such a match. Local promot-
ers will undoubtedly take action i'm
the near future and endeavor to ar
range the contest.
A match between Lehto and Bee
man would undoubtedly prove one OF
the best drawing cards that could
possibly be staged here. Although the
South Range Finn weighs about 20
pounds more than Beeman, il is believ-
ed that the cleverness of the latter
would Offset this advantage. Both
men always keep i'm the best of con-
dition. When Beeman was located i'm
the copper country. he succeeded in
cleaning up all of the local aspirants
for wrestling honors as easily as has
Lehto. Beeman also met a number of
outside wrestlers. heavy and light, in
Calumet.
Ever since ii was discovered that
Lehto, who was working in a South
Range baker shop. could wrestler, ef.
forts have been made to bring the
men together and it is thought that
Lehto will consent to the match after
the Zbyszko contest on March 1.
Lehto has been training faithfully to
prepare for his handicap match with
Zbyszko. Although efforts were made
by Lehto's representatives to arrange
terms whereby Zbyszko would agree
to throw Lehto, Gronlund and Wiirtan-
en- in one hour il is believed that the
best terms which can be secured win
provide straight handicap in which
twice in an hour.
The contest viii take place at the
Palestra, next Tuesday. The seat sale
will open this week, and a block of
seats will be placed on sale in every
town of the copper country. Seats
not sold win be returned on the after
noon of the match and will be dis
posed of at the Palestra. II is ex-
pe ted that the seating capacity of
the big rink will be taxed. A plat
form viii be erected i'm the center of
the rink and gasoline burners will be
placed beneath It to provide sufficient
heat. The ice will be covered with
planks and a walk will be arranged
from the dressing room to the plat
form for the benefit of the men.

SCHAEFER PICKS TIGERS
TO WIN FOURTH PEENANT

Germany" Schaefer, the former IL

member Of Jim McAlecr's washington
squad, says:
Jim McAleer should do well with
the Nationals this season. Sure, he's
got some good youngsters. How about
Elberhcld, Conroy and Schaefer?" he
asked in his Kidding way.
"But the team that beats cut De-
troit is going to win the American

fighting around the top as usual. The
reason: Cobb and Crawford; they'll
smash any infield TO pieces. You just
can't stop that pair.
Hints az a Surprise.
Boston and Philadelphia, of course
are being picked as best bets by many.
still, these outfits may blow at any
time and some of the other teams may
furnish the interesting scrapping for
the Tigers.
II saw all the games between the
Tigers and Pirates. If the Detroit
crowd had any luck, it would have
won the series. Still, | must say that
something was wrong with my old
team mates in the first game. Davy'
Jones, first up against Adams, got four
wide ones that he couldn't have reach
ed with q fishing pole.
Babe was clearly up in the air.
Then Bush, instead of waiting and
worrying the big RUDE, hunted. That
gave Adams a chance to come back
to earth and he certainly took advan-
tGge of It. To me it didn't appear
that he had a whole lot Of stuff in the
first two games. In the third, though
he pitched a corking fine article of
ball.
