Judgments

TOHN OLlN, so says reports
from the east evidently in
e spired and probably written by
Johns prolific press agent, is
coming west to claim Joe Stecher S
scalp. Olin is the huge Finn, who was
heard of last December, when ref
cree awarded him decision over the
Dodge phenom. Olin's announced in
vasion of the west prompts Omaha
wrestling fans to litter audibly. No
sooner had Olin earned--or at least
received if not earned his decision
over Stecher, Marin Plestina wired
the Finn offering him guarantee OF
$1,000 with the privilege of juicy
percentage to come to Omaha to
wrestle him. Olin evidently had
heard OF Plestina, for he promptly
replied with the nothing doing signal.
Olin was a short time ago signed to
wrestle Freiberg, third rater, in
Sioux City He kicked out OF il two
days later. 1t is believed he heard
Pies INA would be on hand to chal-
lenge him and that probably Stecher
would also be represented at the ring
side, as well as couple of other
prominent middle-western grapplers.
So John remained in Massachusetts,
which is long way off. If Olin isn't
willing to tackle Plestina's game,
there is little likelihood he'll take
another chance with Stecher So, Mr..
Olin's war talk can be taken for
what it's worth. which is about as
much as a Mexican nickel i'll Ice
land.

as he has made enough money to

Ty Cobb, in the Base Ball

One Reel In Words.

like to enlist in the army and
fight for Uncle Sam?

lars a month.

stuff. want a three-ycar, con-
tract at $4,000 year with a
$1,000 bonus for signing, or III

Western league magnates made no
mistake when they determined to wind
the 1917 season up on the day follow
ing Labor day. What success may
greet the Western league this year is
problenatical. It's a wise seer, in
deed, who can forecast whether 1917
will be bumper year of prosperity
or one OF dismal failure from the box
Office standpoint. If base ball returns
to its old popularity and the race is
close two weeks in September might
bring more coin into the Golfers of the
magnates. But if the pickings are
slim and the race becomes process
sion two weeks In September would
certainly be drain on the exchequer.
If the season had closed last year on
Labor day, Wichita would have sur
vived the season. Pa Rour Ike dropped
at least $1,000, perhaps double that
sum, in September Labor day is the
logical time for the Western to close
and l40 games is plenty.

REAL BRAVERY.

NLHL DN3N EN- I
I'll gladly fight for Uncle Sam"
The athlete wildly cried,
Il am eager for the trenches,
In among the true and tried.
II have no fear of shot and shell,
Or shrapnels screaming roar,
Nor sight of manned and wounded,
Such horrors Of the war.
Il am bold and brave and fearless,
I've been tested and found true,
l have faced G. Alexander,
As he fred his inshoots through"
Omaha daily bee., 1917-02-25

Grover Cleveland Alexander has
finally made the Phillies come to
terms and Nebraska can now boast of
ownership Of the highest salaried
pitcher in the world. Alexander had
the owners of the Phil by the throat.
They knew he was worth what he
asked. And base ball scribes and
fans alike knew it too and said so.
Ordinarily when a ball player who
gets pretty good salary squawks for
a raise and threatens to hold out the
scribes leap on him with both feet
But it was altogether different in the
case of Alexander. So the Phils had
to come through. Alexander may or
may not be worth the salary he will
draw figuring the intrinsic value Of a
hurler, but he's worth it if Cobb.
Baker, Speaker and some more of the
stars are worth the fabulous sums
they get.

Al Mccoy, generally termed freak
champ and considered but an ordinary
pug and the one bruiser Les Darcy
Is willing to tangle with, says the Aus
tralian is due for surprise when
they assemble within the twenty-four-
foot ring. While even the most op-
timistic do not expect Mccoy to
bother Darcy greatly, Les is likely to
find Al the most popular of the two
and everybody at the ringside pulling
for him to deliver the poke that will
send Lester at top speed to the re-
eruiting Office.

Omaha daily bee., 1917-02-25

The spirit of speculation has GER
tainly landed knockout on the wrest-
lers OF Nebraska. A sporting editor
can't take over six steps down the
street nowadays before a bone
crushed begins to purr war talk into
his ears and to drag coin out
OF his pocket. If it keeps up much
longer we'll soon be reading about a
defaulting sports editor.
Tom Jones, Jess Willard's manager,
has informed Fred Fulton's manager
that Jess will give Fulton a match
Just as soon as some kind-hearted
promoter offers some real money.
Jonesy is very frank about it, he ad-
mits he and Willard are in the fight
game for the money there is in it.
The Minnesota state checker tourn-
ament opened yesterday in Minneapo-
lis. 1t must be tough on those Min
neapolis sport scribes, who have been
trying to- whoop their home town up
as a real city. to find after all it's still
in the bush league class.
The players fraternity strike has
been formally called off And thus
does another soap bubble burst before
the rainbow colors can be seen in its
film.
Those Creighton fippers seem to
be invincible on their home floor
But in foreign fields it is something
'-'se again.
Omaha daily bee., 1917-02-25

Les Darcy apparently is doing his
level best to get himself thoroughly
in bad with the American public. To
start Les, with the exception of few
light chores on the burlesque circuit,
has made desperate effort to tie Jess
Willards record for industry. And
now when his manager signs up two
fights for him, he kicks out, repudi-
ates his managers contract and talks
about waiting still longer In any
possible line Of business except box
fighting Darcy's dilatory and pro-
crastinating tactics would ruin him,
but our guess is that when Les does
condescend to show us just how good
or how bad he really is at his chosen
profession, the Broadway wise boys
will break their backs putting down
their change at the box office window.

Panama wants the Chicago White
Sox to train in the canal zone in
1918 Honolulu has invited the New
York Yankees TO bask under the
warm sun of Hawaii And tour to
South America next winter is being
planned by Comiskey. Base ball as
a national pastime may be losing its
hold on the American public. but it
seems to be making inroads into other
lands quite successfully. And some
day, perhaps, Harry Frazee's dream
of worlds series between mines rep
resenting different nations will be
realized.
