Earl Caddock to
Wrestle Eklund at
Carroll, Ia., Friday

Omaha wrestling fans are looking
forward to Earl Caddock's match with
Clarence Eklund at Carroll, Ia, FRI
day night with considerable interest.
rhe go with Eklund will be the
champions first match since his tenn
porary retirement from the game last
June. Earl attempted SO much work
last winter and this spring, following
his victory over Joe Stecher, that he
became run down physically and was
forced to take rest, Physicians ad-
vised a long rest, all summer, at least,
but Earl was so anxious to get back
into the harness that he couldn't wait
until the hot months were over. So
he consented to meet Eklund at Car
roll during the county fair there.
Carl Marhsi, we'll known Omaha
wrestling impreSario, and Gene Me-
lady's right-hand man, has taken over
the management of Eklund. Eklund
has been middleweight around Ne
braska and Wyoming for several
years. He was one of the best middle
weights in the business. Suddenly,
however, Eklund began to put on
weight and he now has reached the
light-heavyweight class and Marhsi
does not believe he has a peer in his
class He expects to make good
showing with Caddock.
"Eklund, of course, is lighter than
Caddock," said Msrhsi. but he'll give
the champion run for his money. 1t
will be@a match, don't forget that"

International

Marty Krug and Ward Miller
brought home the bacon for their lit
tic playmate, Marty O'Toolc. yester-
day afternoon and Omaha eopped a
ten-round fray from Joplin, ; to 2.
The game was hurting duel between
Marty 0'Toole and Herb Hail.. whom
John Savage believes is the classiest
twirler in the Western league Marty
had an edge on his rival throughout
the game and only some ragged play
ing prevented Marty from trimming
Herbert in tho regulation nine
stanzas.
Marty only allowed the Miners five
hits. He did give four bases on balls
and one OF the walks brought in a
run, but he pitched steady game
Hall allowed six hits and gave FIVE
bases on balls.
Yardley Triples. ...
The Rourkes got the jump on Jop-
lin in the second inning. After Shaw
went out, Fin Yardley pfied off a
three-base hit to right center 1t was
some swat. and il so unnerved Hall
that Herbert issued three walks in a
row. Two of the walks choked the
runway and the third forced Yardley
over with a run. O'Toole's sacrifice
fly which Brokaw caught with one
hand, scored Brottem, who got on

Stingy With Hits.
From the third on the game was
real pitchers battle. Both O'Toole
and Hall were stingy with their base
hits and their mates played nice ball
behind them,
In the tenth Joplin threatened,
Davis was safe on krug's error and
after Lamb whitfield, Brokaw singled
TO right and Hall walked filling the
bases. Then Marty pitched. He
forced Cochran to pop up to Cooney
and Burg to fly out to Miller.
Cooney was called out on strikes to
open Omaha's half OF the tenth, but
Marty Krug shot a safe drive to left.
Brokaw knocked the ball down on the
first bounce with one hand, but Krug
took long chance and raced for Sec
ond. He barely slid into the bag
ahead of Brokaw's throw which for
tunately happened to be little wide.
Then Ward Miller sent sizzling
single down the thrid base line and
Krug gailoped home with the winning
tally.
