BY HUGH s. FULLERTON
Probably the most daring and
astounding attempt at pillagihs
the public by means of a fake
athletic event in recent years was
the wrestling match ,sbetReen
Champion Frank Gotch and the
big German, George Hacken-
schmidt, which was staged at CO.
miskey park, the home of the CHI
cago White Sox baseball team on
September 4, 1911.
Fortunately for the reputation
OF Gotch his part in the effort to
swindle the public. although
Gotch had hints and assurances
that Hackenschmidt was not in
condition, and that he would not
make any serious resistance, the
champion feared all the time that
he might be double crossed
and that the reports might hide
trickery. He certainly knew that
Hackenschmidt was in poor shape
but took no chances.
The match attracted perhaps
the greatest interest of any event
in recent sporting history in the
Central West. Gotch is and was
the idol of that entire section Of
the country, and the pitting Of;
the champion against the giant
German aroused a storm of en-
thusiasm. Gotch had announced
his retirement, and he was lured
out of it through promise of a
huge purse. Hackenschmidt, after
a fairly satisfactory showing on
a preceding visit to America, had
gone home complaining of unfair
treatment and stating that ne
could throw Gotch. The talk ma
turally aroused Gotch sentiment.
The match was wonderfully ad-
vertised, and on the afternoon Of
the contest more than 10000 per-
some were piled into the stands.
On the afternoon prior to the
match ugly rumors began to pass
around and gradually, toward
night, the rumor persisted that
Hackenschmidt was suffering
from a badly sprained leg, and
had agreed to wrestle only on
condition that Gotch did not touch
that leg or use the famous toe
hold.
The storm of angry COM

lers, promoters, and referee.
He told them plainly that
they could not use his park
to stage the robbery Of the

had taken the matter up
with the chief of police who
ordered Referee Ed Smith to
call off all bets.
