SPORTING DEPARTMENT
BOUT IN sight
TWO PURSES OF $4,000 HAVE
BEEN HUNG UP IN EFFORT
TO BRING MEN TO-
GETHER.

Chicago. April 1G--Jack Herman,
manager of ,Stanislaus zbys ko, still
holds the hope that he will get a match
for the Pole with Frank Gotch FOR the
championship.
In presenting his claim for another
Try for the title. Herman has an ar
pument that ii looks impossible foi
Gotch TO get away from. He has two
genuine guaranteed offers of 100000
for "A finish match between GOtch ana
Hbyszko. He calls attention to thu
fact that Gotch received $4,000 fol
his easy victory over Hackenschmidt
last September and now offers to suar-
antee the Iowa farmer more than that
.amount if he will take on the Pole
Gctch has been quoted as declaring
Mahmont to be the hest Of all the mat
men. not even excepting himself
IF that's the way Gotch feels about
IT," says Herman. then why should ne
not make a match With Zbyszllo and
then let the winner vrcstle Mahmout
The original cry of Gctch was for
Zbyszko to beat Mahmout and that
then he would enter into match with
the Pole without urther delay. We
agreed 10 Gotch's terms. but Mahmout
has left the country and it is impos-
sible to go through with 1t.
In his argument as TO why he should
have match with Gotch. Herman
also calls attention TO the wonder
ful Improvement I'm form shown by
Iby szko recently as compared TO his
showing when he last wrcstcd I'm Chi-
cago. when zbyszlo first showed in
this country he weighed 27G pounds
and carried paunch like a beer bar
rel. Today Zbyszlo will not tlp the
beam at over 225 pounds. ON his first
trip to Chicago his waist measurement
was 81 y inches. He has lost ten inches
i'm girth and his measurement around
the waist lire today is not over IL y
inches.
When Zbyszko first showed in Chca-
80 the Pole know nothing at AL of
the catch-as- catch-can style of mat
work. He had more strength than any
OF the men he met. bat he scarcely
knew a single hold. To-day II is an
other Zbyszko entirely that is crying
for chance at Gotch. This Pole has
been wrestling continuously with all
the best men of the country. He has
engaged in matches almost every
night and has got himself into real
shape physically. In addition to his
cd the tricks of the game and now
instead of being the defensive wrestler.
he can so after his man and show
him that he knows every hold that is to
be had.
