ANSWER WAR CALL
Field and Linemen of This Dis
trict Examined for Signal
Corps Work.
TO BUILD ARMY LINES

Physical examinations are now be-
ing given telephone company field and
linemen, nearly 900 of whom have
volunteered in this district to join the
signal reserve corps for active war
service in the army. Captain Robert
f. Firth, with surgeons and assist
ants, began examining at the army
building Thursday noon.
Two companies for the signal corps
will be furnished by the telephone
system in the territory covered by
the northwestern group OF companies.
About sixty of these will be Omaha
men, who promptly volunteered to
serve the flag when the call was made.
Their chief work will be the building
and maintenance of field telephone
lines for the army.
Pay to Go On.
w. B. T. Belt, vice president and
general manager of the company,
made this announcements:
"All men who enter the signal serv-

STAGE IS ALL SET
FOR BIG MAT CLASH
Marin Plestina and Jack Taylor
to Battle in Omaha for
Honors Tonight.
LARGE CROWD EXPECTED

Marin Plestina, Omaha's candidate
for the wrestling title, and Jack Tay-
Tor, Lincoln's representative, clash to-
night at the Auditorium in a finish
match.
The fate of each grappler hangs i'll
the balance of tonight's bout. If Pies
tina is the victor he will wrestle
Joe Stecher here on July 4. II Taylor
wins he will probably wrestle Stecher
either here or in Lincoln. And the
winner will also be logical opponent
for Earl Caddock The one who loses
will practically have to start all over
again.
Plestina is in the proverbial pink OF
condition. He weighs 2l5 pounds
without an ounce of superRuous flesh
on his body. He declares he is ready
to wrestle all night if need be.
Taylor is also in the finest possible
shape. He tips the scale at little
over 200 pounds.
Both men are confident of victory.
The advance sale OF seats indicates
a large crowd will witness the event.
A good many Taylor supporters are
coming up from Lincoln to see the
fray. There has been very little bet
ting on the outcome, although it may
pick up today when the Lincolnites
arrive. What wagers have been made
have been at even money.

Notre Dame Returns
Banner Won at Drake

South Bend, Ind, April 26.-The
athletic board of Notre Dame univer-
sity has notified authorities at Drake
university, Des Moines, Ia, that the
banner won by the Notre Dame team
in the mile relay race at the Iowa
school last Saturday, when a record
was established for that distance, will
not be accepted because McDonough,
one of the winning quartet, was I'M
der a faculty ban at the time. AL
though McDonough was not ineligi-
Bile under any conference ruling, was
not bonahde member of the team, it
was explained. The banner was re-
turned today.
Lafayette, Ind, April 26.-As Pur-
dues two-mile team finished but one
fifth of second behind the Notre
Dame runners in the Drake relay
race last Saturday, it is believed here
that the banner will now be awarded
to Coach O'Connor's squad. Purdues
time was 7:5S, which also breaks
the old record of 800 made by
Illinois.
