MOST INTERESTING MAT
MAN TO hit BISMARCK"
If He Had a Neck It Would Have
Been Snapped OFF in Engage
ment Here

Tossed on his head which was used
as a pivot for spinning his body
around like top, and which abuse
would have killed an ordinary man,
Henry Karhusaari, the Finn, lived
through the torture in his match with
Roy Anderson of Billings, Mont, last
night and won out in two straight
falls.
The head of the Finn squats on his
shoulders. If he had a neck OF two
inch dimension in length, it would
have been snapped off, and the career
or the Finn would have ended with
his engagement in Bismarck. Kar-
(. hunsaari entered upon the mat like a
\ bull; he went at his worked logged
ly, and proved the most interesting
grappler that has hit Bismarck"
Gets Name Of Charlie Chaplin.
The Finn was christened in Bis
lnarck by bunch of youngsters as
Charlie Chaplin He worked his
forepaws like crab sends out its an
tennae. He had Charlie Chaplin"
walk, but he had the strength of a
bull. During the first fall which came
after SO minutes of test Of endur-
ance, the Finn worked his best. An.
derson was on the defense and lost
out on scissor on body and arm

The Billings wonder who weighed
in at IT, pounds compared with 1873
pounds by his rival. looked as though
he had emerged from bath tub when
the first fall was called by Referee
Roberts. The mat looked as though a
Bismarck street sprinkler had passed
over it. The Finn smiled. At all 9th
err moments he was serious and dog
ged.
Hasn't Seen His Equal.
II have never seen a man in this
part of the state to equal him." stat
ed Promoter Frank Kellogg Of James
town, after the match. "He has work.
ed this way in his matches at Fargo,
Valley City and Jamestown. Person
ally, I would like to see him matched
in Bismarck with Charley Rentrop.
who I understand now is in Mime
apolis.''
Twenty-Five minutes decided the
second fall. A toe hold did it.. 1t was
hold which made Anderson's body
wrench all over. He stood the tor.
ture minute and then sank. Referee
Roberts petted the Finn on the back.
There was but one statement coming
from the principals. Anderson limped
off the mat and called to the fans:
"Wait a minute, boys, did my best
for you
Leave For JamesoWn.
Promoter Frank Kellogg. Manager
Kallio and Henry Karhusaari packed
their grips and left for jamestown
this morning. Several big bouts have
been arranged in that city. 1t is stat
ed that the famous Hull may be seen
in action soon against Tony Bernard,
the Greek king, in the railroad city.
If so, it will prove a mighty interest
ing carnival of strength.

with no response.
Detectives are on guard at Thaw's
bedside and a warrant for his arrest is
ready TO be served the moment he is
