lead to a more unwanted demorali-

ISAVAGE-FREBERG l MATCH TOMORROW
 WILL BE A ''P|PP|N''
Plestina Says This Pair Is About as Evenly Matched as Any Two Men in
 the Game

Steve Savage who wrestles Freburg
 here Monday night is all that his name l Implies. for he is really the savage type ] of wrestler and goes after his man from
 the gong. There is never a rest period or letup in a match that Steve works in. This is one thing that causes the forecast that Monday nights bout will be the classest and most thrilling match staged at the Athletic club during the season.
 Both Savage and Freberg will weigh around the 2l6-pound mark. Both are on their way up and the dope handed out by visiting mat men here are that they are about evenly matched. Questioned about the coming event, Marin Plestina said before he left Birmingham: Its a toss up and I would hate to venture a prediction as to who will win. I have seen both men in action but don't be- lieve' they have ever met before. One trouble with the bouts staged thus far in Birmingham is that one opponent outclassed his rival to such an extent that the match was too one-sided and the result never in doubt. When Saw age and Freberg meet Monday night 1 there will be a different tale to tell and fans are due to get some real thrills and a long bout is promised.
 UT course treberS has great follow Ing of admirers in Birmingham who do not believe he can be thrown except by such men as Lewis, Zbyszko and Stech- CT Still, Savages record proves that he IS as good a man as John. just as powerful, and is d wee bit faster on his feet
 With two men who are evenly matched going the distance on the mat the live Hest bout of the season is forecast and
 a packed house will not doubt see these two stellar mat performers in action. | Savage is the younger of the two men, being but o6 years of age while John ! Freberg is 2S.
 Bill Streit IS being congratulated on every hand upon securing such an at traction for the club
