Rev. J. R. Nelson of Wynne came to McCrory Wednesday to officiate at the Willis-Kyle nup- tials.

cred from an operation for the removal
Of his tonsils, Earl Caddock, Of Anita,
claimant of the worlds heavyweight
championship, is settling down for a
summer vacation. Caddock believes lie
needs a complete rest before starting
on the winters campaign.
That the champion is in earnest not
to do any wrestling until fall Is evil
denced by the fact that he refused two
offers Of 81, 900 to wrestle on the Fourth
of July. He Also has declined other
matches which would net him about
$4,000.
Caddock said that before he would
agree to meet Joe Stecher, the big
Nebraskan, from whom he won the
title, in another finish match, Stecher
would have to meet John DIN, the
Finn Ed stranger Lewis and
Wladek Zbyszko. the Polish wrestler.
Caddock contends that Stecher failed
to throw any of these men.
TT took me two years to get a
match with Stecher, for was told that
l was Of unknown quality and it would
be necessary for me to go out and
wrestle some high class men, CaddocN
explained. "Now it looks as If Stecher
should clean up some of the wrestlers
