WRESTLERS'
ETERNAL
TRIANGLE
CBy United Press.D

NEW YORK. April 27.-Three heavy
weight wrestlers- peeved by the claims
and counter claims of each other, are
forming themselves into another
species of the old eternal triangle"
and the worlds heavyweight wrestling
title is in the balance. Stecher to Olin
to Caddock is the general drift of the
argument, but Steeher's chirps are cut
ting very little figure in the affair.
The general trends of the effort Is
to find out just who did throw Joe
Stecher. the Nebraska marvel. or who
did make him quit, and who should get
the credit.
Il did it first" is the wild contention
of John Olin of Worcester. Mass, who
made the Nebraskan leave the ring
during a match in Springfield. Mass.
But I did 1t last and so far as I
care, first" pipe Earl Caddock. the
Iowa phenom and favorite of Frank
Gotch. undefeated holder of the worlds
title
From a long distance 1t appears that
Olin and Caddoek.. both having claims
to a victory over Stecher. should meet
and have it out now. but Stecher here
inserts a line for which he has no cue
Neither of 'em did it, he AYERS. SO
far as the public is concerned Stecher
might just as well remain silent, or
he will have to pin the shoulders OF
these men to a mat before he will again
be a calcium-b baked idol.
Olin is matched to battle 1t out with
Stranger" Lewis. the Kentucky
strong man. on May 2. Lewis IN
meeting with Stecher several years
ago, forced the Nebraskan to extend
himself to the utmost. The first went
two hours without decision ana the
second extended over five hours with
out a fall.
After Olin and Lewis have had their
little tiff over it might be worth whlle
to match the winner with Caddock ana
have the argument settled oohaliue

Title to Winner in

The third man In the 1ng on next

will be Frank Gotch, retired heavy
weight champion wrestler of the
world, when John O1n Of Finland
and STRANGER Lewis of Kentucky
will wrestle to decide which of them
can r1ghtfuIly call himself the
worlds champion wrestler. Both con-
testants have agreed upon Gotch and
the management approved of the Sc
lection because by Gotch refereeing
the public Is not only assured that
the men will wrestle strictly accord
ing to rules, but the retired champion
has promised to publicly turn over
his title to the winner of this match,
SO there can be no question after the
bout as to the winners claim to the
title.
