DRAAK FINISHED WRESTLER

Lewis realizes more than anyone else that when he tackles Draak he meets man who knows every angle of the
 wrestling game, for Draak is pupil of the famous Hackenschmidt, having re- ceived his early training in Europe, where he became quite mat star before emil grating to this country. Draak, like | many other famous European wrestlers, adopted original ideas of training early in his wrestling career. Draak has lived close to nature all his life. He has spent hours in the open air and is a fanatic on the wrestling game. The Belgian champion is constantly studying the game with the idea of perfecting now holds. He announces that he has a brand new one to spring when he appears here next sort of a crotch and half-Nelson, to be used in connecting with a toe hold, us- ing his leg to secure the crotch hold. He calls the new hold the ''toe-lock and head
 bar" and believes it will prove win ner.
 Draak so far as strength is concerned, is sort of superhuman. The Belgian grap- pier has a wonderful bridge; he can easily | support a 2O0-pound man while on a bridge. Draak is always in good condi tion, and when he goes after man he , never seems to tire. It is because of his wonderful strength and endurance that
 Draak is one of the most feared heavy weight wrestlers in the game.
 "Strangler" Lewis, on the other hand,
 has been pronounced by leading experts t. be the perfection of physical power and wrestling science, and possessing a marvellous endurance, carrying 230 pounds that is every ounce vigor.
 ZbySzko was rated a wonderfully strong man. Lewis dazed him by the rapidity of his attack He thought and acted quicker than the slow thinking Pole could follow. Both Draak and Lewis are quick thinkers, and for that reason the match Monday night will be fact from the start.
 Lewis and Draak met once before about six months ago and wrestled one hour to a draw. Since this time each man has met and defeated ISany of the lead CTS in the profession Each man thinks
 himself unbeatable. Draak is trained down to fine point, and is at the zenith of his career. The Belgian has made a study of the wrestling game, and he is an artist in disposing of sturdy oppon- nentS.
 Lewis and Draak are about evenly matched in science of the game. Both men have good endurance and the fans can be assured of good long, fast bout.
 The coming match means much to both men, and they realize that the winner will be in line for some good matches With other top-notch wrestlers while the loser will be out of the running tempo- rarily. at least. Both men are training hard and will be III tiD-rop condition when time is called.

Wrestling fans will have the opportunity Of witnessing one of the best matches ever offered in Birmingham tonight at the Jefferson theatre, when Tom Draak, the champion of Belgium, meets Ed ("strangler'D Lewis, claimant to the worlds championship. The bout is sched- uled to start at S:30 o'clock, but will not start until later on account of being pro- preceded by several prelminares.
 All indications point to a crowded house. Lewis is one of the best known wrestlers in the game today, and gained consider able reputation recently when he won the international wrestling tournament at New York, in which over 50 of the best known grapplers in the game participated. Draak is well known also.' He is a local favorite having wrestled three matches here before. He has a large following which will probably be out in full force.
 If confidence counts for anything Draak already has "Strangler' Lewis scalp dangling from his belt, for Tom is brim full of confidence and is not alone in his belief that he will be returned the victor Many of Lewis stanchest SUD-

CENTRAL H|GHMEETS |ENSLEY NINE TODAY Classical High School Game of Year in Birmingham Is Expected

The classical high school battle in
 baseball this season in Birmingham is set for this afternoon at Ensley,
 when the Central High school meets the Ensley High school in their annual af- fair According to all reports from each camp, both teams are primed for the game and followers of both are con- fident of victory.
 According to advance reports, Ems ley will enter the game slightly the favorite, and defeat to the Pritchard clan would not be surprising. Ensley is boasting of the strongest team in the history of the school. while Central, al- though not below the standard, is not considered as world beaters.
 Ensley has been preparing for the game with Central for the past six weeks. The game has been fully ad- vertised and Ensley has been awaiting with keen interest for two rivals to
 clash. Ensley has prepared for the game
 even more than Central. Coach Craig has been drilling his boys for the past two weeks and cancelled all practice
 games in order to have his nine in per- feet condition for the game.
 Just who will do mound duty for
 Ensley is unknown, but 1t is a sure fact that Rives will be Coach Pritch-
 ards selection. although Harrell may
 be given the choice. Sherlock or Brown will be in the box for the Craig nine. Berry will do the receiving for Gen. tral. while Baylock or Golf will act in that capacity for Ensley. Both teams are relying much on the battery pair,
 and unless poor fielding plays an inn portant part, a pitchers duel should be the result of the game.
 The infeld and outfield positions of
 each team are already decided. Gen.

.ELBERFELD HURLS ANOTHER SURPRISE
 PACKAGE ID FANS
Release of Collins and Kip pert Comes as Big Sur prise-Kid Eager to
 Secure HitterS

Chattanooga, April 2.-(Special)- Elberfeld did regular Connie Mack this week. giving the Chattanooga fans the biggest surprise of the season when he handed walking papers to Wilson Col lins and Ed Kippert, outfielders. The two players started the training season with a big noise and had already been accord ed center and right field respectively, the fans confning their speculations as to whether Daley or Nicholson would win the left field job Crash! and off went the heads of the duo all at one sweep.
 There was a reason. The Kid discovered, or believes he discovered, that neither one of the pair could hit, and he acted quick ly. As everyone knows. there is no ''watchful waiting about the Chatta- nooga manager. When he marks a man for the discard out he goes. and be it said to his credit that he has never yet picked "dead one," nor turned loose a live one, for the Chattanooga club.
 The fatally light hitting shown by the Lookouts in the early games made neces- sary 8 radical shift in the opinion of the manager; he did not like to break up his infield, and he felt bound to apply the axe in the outfield. Hence, it happens that the Lookouts face the opening of the season with splendid pitching staff lccal fans believe it the best in the league; catchers the equal of any; fast fielding irfield, but only two outfielders, neither of whom is sure of making the team, and not man on the club who is counted on as sure to hit above .275. That the Chattanooga management is astir after ! clouter or two goes without saying. The ocal prospects are too bright to admit of clouding them by lack of hitting. The Lookouts have every other club equaled in all other departments, save the slugging. Even the two feders who were set adrift were superb fly chasers and the Kid could have entered the flag chase with the best defensive machine in the league without making another shift.
 There's a neat little battle in the catch ing department, Powers, the Ottawa youngster giving Peters and Kitchens terrific battle. Powers is playing right ield during the fielders' famine and may be used there. where he played many ,ames last year. He seems far better hitter than either of the two hod-over atchers. The pitching staff consists now of Karr Allen, Martina, Krapp Somers nd Poston, with chances favoring the Fith Harris at first, Pitler at second Smykal or Weidell, most probably the for fner, and short and Graft at third. In the outfield, Nicholson Is playing center and Daley left at present, but no one can guess what may happen when the new men report

GRIFFIN ANXIOUS FOR THE SEASON ID OPEN
Park Now in Fine Fix and the Outlook Indicates
 Winner

Griffin, April 2.-(Special.) )-The
 baseball fans at Griffin are at fever
 heat in their anxiety for the season of the Georgia-Alabama league to open
 and if the directors of the club give the fans good baseball, Griffin will again lead the league in attendance. 1 The local club has already spent sew eral hundred dollars in putting the ball park in good shape for the com ing season. The diamond has been tur- tle-backed and sodded, leftfield has been raised about three feet, a smoker has been built as an addition to the grand stand and the whole outfield has been rolled. The local ball park in it's new condition would do credit to club in the Southern league. The ball park of
 Rome and Anniston are the only two parks in the league that are in it's class. President P. J. Slaton stated this morning that Rip Reagan would again be at the stearing wheel of the Griffin club and the following players, who were with the local club last season, had signed contracts to play with Rea- gan again this season: Harry Watson and "Southpaw" Anderson, pitchers; Pope. first baseman; Reagan, second baseman; Kirk, shortstop; Bowden, third basemen; Chalden and Hanson, catchers Of the new men are Hodgens, Farmer and Wilson, outfielders; Mat thews, an infielder, and Glin Oliver, a pitcher. Besides these men Reagan has several other good men in view who will report here for the training season, April 10.
 Griffin has the advantage over most of the clubs in the league having their complete infield of last season to re-
 turn, two catchers and two good pitch
 CTS. They only need a good outfield and
 two good pitchers. Almost every other
 club in the league is going to have to build an almost complete new team. Griffin had good team, during the latter part of last season, and had the season lasted two or three weeks long CT, the chances are that they would have fought it out with Newman for the pen nant. R. J. Russell and John Roseber- ry, two experienced pitchers, are going to be tried out by Reagan, and several semi professionals who have asked for trials.

New York Giants Start
 Series With BdrOns Today

The second team of the New York Nationals will meet the Barons in the first of the two game series at Rick wood this afternoon at o'clock. The Giants yannigans are in charge of the veteran twirler, Christy Mathewson. With the exception of the notable Mat ty, there are no other well known play CTS in the group, with possibly the exception of Jim Thorp, the famous Indian athlete, who was released Sat urday by Manager McGraw.
 It was thought at first that the team that would oppose the Barons would be the first team. It is said that this was the agreement, but on account of getting late start in train ing, McGraw had to prolong the sea- son at Marlin, Tex, where the Giants trained. The Giants played the Little Rock Travellers on Saturday and met defeat by the score of to 1. This in . dicates that the Barons should also hand out a defeat to Matty and his gang.
 Just who will do the hurling for Matty is unknown. Moley stated yes terday that he would probably send Dick Robertson, if his arm was back in shape. Johnson or Black, Ponder or Miller may also be given a chance. In other words, Moley has not definitely decided just whom he will rely upon to show a little mid season form, but in all probability the responsibility will fall on the veterans.
 LAST GAME WITH MAJORS
 This is the last exhibition game here this season with a major league team. The Barons met the New York Yankees here about two weeks ago and held them to a tie, which the Tanks were lucky to get, at that. The BaronS are in fine trim at the present. due to week of excellent training weather. Moley took advantage of the opportu- nifty following a brief siege of cold ness and rounded his roster into fairly good form. With another week of good practice, aided by favorable
