and the proceeds to go to the support
of the forces.
Several friends of mine, graduates
of West Point" Welsh wrote, Ito whom
l have preached the subject, have sig
nifiCd their willingness to join the
regiment. Many boxers and sports
men are enthusiastic over the project
and want not only to join, but to help
in every way to raise the necessary
funds. A number of these boxers have
seen service in the United States

Welsh, who is an Englishman by
birth, points out that he has lived in

Earl Caddock Makes Good

Omaha, April 1o.-Earl Caddock
made good his own and Frank Gotchs
boast that he would bring the cham
pionship back to Iowa when he made
Joe Stecher, the Dodge county, Neb-
raska, farmer quit after three hours of
the fiercest wrestling here last night.
Stecher won the first fall in one
hour and % minutes but only after a
fall through the ropes left Earl in a
dazzed condition. Caddock came back
strong in the second fall and had
things all his own way thereafter. He
really threw Stecher twice, but the
referee refused to grant the first one
because the men were partly off the
mat. The time for the second fall
was one hour and forty minutes, and
after the usual 15-minute intermission
1t was announced that Stecher would
not come back to continue the match
and it was given to Caddock.

RED TIME TALES

Dickey's Bath

Dr. COURSE YOU remember Dickey, the
pretty little yellow and black canary
who gave his little Mistress Mary so
much pleasure. You've read stories
about him before. How I wish you
had been there to see him take his
bath!
He didn't want to take his bath
when it was the right time for baths
who does? And moreover, he
wouldn't get In his tub. He wouldn't
even look at that tubI Mar. took
out his seed cup, and she poked her
fingers gently In at the top Of the
cage to coax him down to the bot
tom. But he paid no attention to
such maneuyres. He simply would
not battle.
Mary left the tub in till It was
time for her to go to school, and still
he hadn't used it. 81 hate to have
such dirty birdie, mother" she
said; "but Dickey won't take his
bath, and this is the third day since
he's had one!" But 1t was school
time, so Mary took the unused tub
out Of the cage, put the seed cup in
and hung her bird up by the window.
Then she went to school.
During the morning Mary's mother
looked at pretty Dickey many a time
as she went about her work. She
liked his lovely song and she often
spoke to him or answered his cheer
full call.
One time, as she went through the
room, she saw that he was doing
something out of the ordinary and
she stopped to see what it was. He
was taking a bath in his drinking
cup! Yes, sir! That's just what he
was doing!
wait a minute, Dickey," cried
Mary's mother; "I'll get you your
tub!" And she ran to the bathroom
and brought back his little white
tub all full of clean water.
Dickey stopped his drinking-cup-
bath and eyed the bath tub thought
fully. yes" he seemed to be saying
to himself, that Is my bath tub, sure
enough, and maybe I'd better use It,"
So he hoped down, stood on the
rim of the tub and stuck his bill into
the water.

WISER POSTS SIDE
BET; WANTS TO MEET
CHRISTENSEN HERE

If Promoter Nick Collins receives a
wire from Peter Wiser announcing he
has forwarded certified check for
$1,000 to a local bank as side bet to
meet Harold Christensen on the local
mat again, and Boise fans cover the
money. he will proceed to stage the
light heavyweights at the Pinney
theater on the night of April II. The
big fellows met here a few days ago
and wrestlsd two hours >and 20 min
utes without q fall. Immediately af-
ter the match there was talk of side
bet to get them together again, Wiser
having stated that if he wrestled Chris
Jensen a second time 1t would be for a
finish, winner take all.
Last night Promoter Collins received
a challenge from Wiser who is now
at Ogden, to meet Christensen for a
side bet. Collins wired Wiser as fol-
lows
Your challenge to Harold Christen-
sen accepted by him. Rush certified
check of $500 to $500 to make good your
challenge. Christensen will cover that
amount. Wrestle April II. Waiting

Both light heavyweights are there
fore ready to post their own personal
forfeit money to guarantee their ap-
pearance. The balance up to $1,000 will
be taken care of by local fans who are
behind Christensen. Wiser has his
own hackers at Ogden.
The conditions that Wiser lays down
are that Otto Jones referee the 1tch
and that thew wrestle on n san I'm At

can get faster action on "A mat with
more spring in it, as sawdust will give.

here the match was considered one of

largely with his legs. Christensen is
