P|LAK0FF GOING

Duluth Finn Believes He Can
+. Cop Championship Of
America

Duluth. Mi Dec. I'll. J. MAXI,
manager of Fred Pilakoff. the giant
Finnish wrestler. writes from the cop.
per country where the big wrestler Is
at the present time. that Plakoff ts
going to make a determined attempt
to win the American championship.
and that after the match with Zyb-
szko. will go after Ordemann. Wester-
gard and Charley Cutler. Here is
what MAXI says:
1T believe. and some Of the hest
judges of wrestling bear me out, that
Fred Pilakoff has the making of one
Of the greatest wrestlers In the world.
Those who saw the match with Cutler
III Duluth know that for over an hour
nothing with Pilakoff. He wrestled
Paul Sampson. the German giant in
the copper country. He defeated the
hig German and showed himself a far
superior wrestler. All that Pilakoff
lacks to make him one of the greatest
Wress!ers in the world is science, and
we are going to get some clever man
to work with him. l expect that Pila-
kof's showing against Zbyszko will
force the attention of the big men
upon him.
Sometime before the present sea-
son is over we are going to force Carl
Lehto on the mat. For several years
LehtO has claimed the heavyweight
championship Of Finland. W..S.re con
tent to let him claim this title. But II
he Is the title holder he must come
out and defend it, and If he ever does
Wrestle there will be a new champion.
the present season. He is going after
the title OF heavyweight Finnish
champion. for he is sure that he can
handily defeat m man claiming 1t.
Then he ts going after the American
championship. Pilakoff knows that
Frank Gotch stands above all the
vrestlers in the world. but he believes
that he stands a very good chance to
win from Ordemann with the toe hold
to get on a match with the Minneapolis
man.
I'VE have written to Fred Beell at
Marshf1eld. Wis.,. and are trying to get
him to work with Pilakoff for a week
before the match with Zybszko. II the
match with Ordemann Is made Pila-
koff. will also work with some clever
man. Pilakoff is stronger than Orde-
mann. W~estergaard or Cutler and with
a little more knowledge of the CATCH
as-catch can style ne is confident that
he can defeat all Of these men.
We have sent a formal challenge
to Karl Lehto. Pilakoff is anxious to
meet Lehto. for he wants to prove
beyond a doubt that he is the real
champion. Pilakoff is in grand condi-
ton for his match with, Zbyszko, and
big and strong as Zbyszko is. Pilakon
will match his strength against that of
the Pole and will make Zbyszko put
up an awful battle to win"
MAXI says in the letter that Pila-
kof will be in this city sometime the
present week. and in the event of not
going down to Beell's farm for a week,
will make arrangements for some
man to come to Duluth and help pre-.
pare him for the match with Zbyszko.

When that shining credit to his
