MAKES ONE
HEAVIER

Wrestling puts on weight rapidly
and makes one hardy and strong. So
declares DR.. b. +. Roller. noted heavy
weight grappler OF Seattle, who was
in town last week. lie says all the
good men Of the mat game have in
creased their respective weights
through strenuoslty and hours OF per
spiration.
Fred Beell is light heavyweight
now because OF extra pouudage, which
he gained in the past two years" re-
called Roller. "Beell claims to be a
middleweight. but II is doubtful if he
can make the limit. Frank Gotch
weighed but 10 when he started
wrestling. Today he is very much big
ger"
Roller himself has added consider
able muscle to his personality since
starting out to clean up the probes
sional heavyweights. His average IS
about 210 pounds right now.
Roller thinks Gotch the most mas
terful wrestler that ever lived. There
isn't a man in the world that can beat
him." said he 1T takes long time
to get up in the wrestling game and
you don't know just how good you are
until you tackle the good ones.
"Gotch wasn't very much until he
defeated Hackenschmidt. Then he be-
came a great wrestler. That victory
made him twice as good as he ever
was before"
Another case is that of Henry Gehr-
ing. the Cleveland wrestler. who was
puny boy when he took up wrest-
ling in preference TO trip TO Arizona
In search of health. Wrestling agreed
with him so we'll that he took on thir-
Nv pounds and became a very powerful
man, the middleweight champion OF
the world, In fact.

ATHLETIC GENEROSITY AS
DONE BY H. SCHAEFER

Germany" Schaefer. Of the Sena-
tors, is known everywhere as a genu-
inc comedian, and what he did to the
bellhops at the Hotel Aldine in Philly
at the close OF the AllStars- Athletics
series bears 1t out "Germany's" share
OF the receipts was $500. and while he
was counting his wad he noticed the
greedy eyes of the hops watching him.
He walked over to the bench where
they were sitting and in a loud voice
said
You boys have taken good care
OF me, and | propose TO show you how
grateful / am. Now. everybody stand
up"
The eight hops leaped TO their feet
and stood In a proud, cleaning group.
AS I said before, you chaps have
treated me right. and I'm going TO
pray for you In church tomorrow"
Exit Germany" Howls OF rage
from hops. Storm OF laughs from the
bystanders.

Ann Arbor high school is making
big effort 10 keep Western, captain
az the Central eleven. out OF football.
They win file formal protest with
& Central and will ask that he be bar
\ red from participating In games
against teams that are members OF
the M. l. A. The Ann Arbor folk allege
he ig not eligible under the rule OF
the conference, that he is deficient in
studies.
Central says Western will continue
playing.
The protest from Ann Arbor looks
like q joke to the athletic authorities
nt Central. II is claimed that Western
was down In his work and that he
did not complete the last semester,
being out through illness. This, II is
understood. will be the basis OF Ann
Arbor's complaint
Mr.. Miller, of Central, said he did
not know that the folk upstate had
protested, but he heard they intended
to do so.
The state athletic association is in
peculiar condition" Mr.. Miller said.
Nobody seems to know what its rules
are and don't know any way OF find
ing out.
The question of Westerns playing
was discussed with the Ann Arbor
people and Mr. Joslin, who also is
secretary OF the state athletic associa-
ton, said II Mr.. Mckenzie and myself
were satisfied that Western is eligible
that would be satisfactory TO Ann Ar
Dor.
We are OF the opinion that he is
eligible and we will continue To play
him. He is a student in good standing
and one who ranks high in his classes.
~ Ann Arbor or any of the other state
schools do not wish TO continue ath-
letic relations with us that is their
business They have more to lose
than we have.

This player-he was famous as a
pitcher on the back lot diamonds
around New York-had been clamor-
ing for a tryout with the Giants for
weeks. Finally he was signed TO

show his prowess.
Jack Sharrott, the old-time pitcher
who once won pennant for New YORK
and who is fondly remembered all
around the old National league circuit,
took quite an interest in the young
man, perhaps in the hope that the
prospective recruit would prove so
good a twirler that there would DE a

CENTRAL To HAVE
ATHLETIC FIELD
Project Receives Hearty Approval Of
Alumni Who Pledge Their
Active Support.

Alumni OF Central High school want
an athletic field. They will try TO
have the city purchase one. and, fail
ing in that, will do the work by pub
lie subscription. About $4,000 will
be required TO convert tract of Ave
acres in the North End into suit
able field for holding competitive
games.
All sorts OF schemes were suggest
ed at a meeting of the alumni in the
Griswold house, MondayA evening.
Some desired a mammoth stadium for
the use OF all schools, while the ma
jority seemed DESTROYS OF obtaining a
field for immediate use.
Some OF the high schools are In
close proximity to public play grounds
but Central is not. The municipality
not having provided these things, II
was the concensus of opinion OF the
alumni that the association should
get busy.
Wales c. Martindale, superintend-
ent OF schools, was named to appoint
committee OF 10. This committee
VIII investigate ways ana means anu
will report 10 the association at the
earliest possible moment.
Two sites are available. One con-
sists of five acres and is opposite the
Ford Motor Co.'S new plant, about
three blocks from Woodward-ave. 1t
is Just outside the limits OF Highland.
This place can be reached in 20 min
utes by street car from Central.
The other location is 40 acres at
Grand River and Boulevard. This
property could be purchased for
school purposes at bargain prices,
those who had investigated said. This
place would afford central meeting
place for teams from all high schools.
The committee OF 10 Will make its
investigation as soon as possible and
another meeting OF the alumni will be
held probably within two weeks.

Mack laid himself open to a lot or

sale was made in the winter OF 1907.
Philadelphia was satisfied, because II
was Mack who made the sale. St.
Louis thought II had stung the wise

& McAleer drew columns upon col
