would like to have a chance, hut the
Pole will more likely encounter Ser
geant Earl Caddock, who is expected
back from service in few weeks.
DR.. Roller, who will be vividly re-
called by the fans who saw him slow
ly succumb here under the Strangers
grip, raises his voice in Physical
Culture Magazine to mention rIestina
as the logical opponent for the Pole.
The wrestling physician stated
some time ago.
"Of all American wrestlers, both
past and present, three men stand out
prominently from the standpoint of
ability. The three men are Marin
Plestina, Ed. stranger" Lewis and
Joe Stecher. Which one of these
three men is the best is in my mind
great men, and / believe far greater
than any other American wrestlers
in our history as a nation. The real
championship lies among these three
men. They are all three pig, power
full. young. clever, square, clean and
intensely game" Too much cannot
be said in favor OF these three men.
Personally, / believe that right now.
Plestina could defeat either one Of
the others. Whereas, Il year ago, |
am positive that no one could have
defeated Lewis, and the year before
that. / am equally sure that nobody
could have defeated Stecher.
No doubt. since Zybszko has de-
feated Lewis so completely. DIR. Roller
would put the Pole in first division.
He goes on to say:
I'm the next class, but considerably
below these three. although still in
class with the greatest American
wrestlers of a few years ago, are
Wladek Zybsko. Ad Santell. Jack

DEIAYED PEACE

rE,ron the Phila, North AmerlcahI
Americans who have not followed
S,,irrteIv the course OF eNents may
,sls themselves in bewilderment why
n conference to make peace shoulu
have produced only d'ssensioh an"
strife, and should have caused ma
tions recently united In arms ana
ideals to regard one another with
,distrust and aversion? The reasons
are President Wilson and his arDi-
trary, dictatorial methods. The
terms and principles he declared,
il they could be interpreted ana
applied by superhuman wisdom ana
authority, possibly would produce
from their vague expressions the
essence of an idealistlc settlement.
But it is a matter or plain record
that in practical application. accord :
ing to his erratic Interpretation OF
them, they have resulted IN bitter
conflict.
Under a policy of American CO.
operation. rather than dictatlon. tne
democratic governments certainly
would have made a decisive settle
ment before this. 1t might not have
been perfect in logic or altruism-
but neither. assuredlN. will that
peace which is TO result be unassail-
able in these respects. And in ar
irving at a negotiated. compromised.
complicated and unstable peace with
Germany. we shall have destroyed in
great measure the spirit of unity
that existed among the democratic
nations when the armistice was
signed. and shall have made mill
lions resentful against the very
name of America.

MAKE USE oE SCHOOLS

tFrom the Philadelphia LEDGER
Philadelphia makes small use of
one of its most valuable facilities
its public school buildings. 1t is not
economy to permit apparatus of any
kind to stand idle seven-eighths of
the time when it can be operated
profitably. Our schools are occupied
week, and then only for six or seven
of the hours of each school day,
when they could be put to useful
purposes in the evenings as we'll as
in the hours of daylight. This is an
economic waste, and with the eX-
ception of the short winter periods,
when the night schools are in ses-
sion, and the few occasions when
the Home and School League has
been permitted to hold meetings in
the schools nothing Is peing done
to remedy it.
a bill is pending in the Leg:sla-
ture, however, that is designed to
correct this waste of good material,
and at the same time gives a slim
ulu3 to the community center move
ment. Under it's provisions it would
be no longer left to the option of
the schoolboards whether the schools
should be opened for ne!ghborhood
meetings for the discussion of local
problems, for entertainments and
recreation and for special instruc-
ton in subjects of community in
terest. New York has given the sys-
tenn thorough trial with whole
some results and PENNSYLVANIA
would pr fit by following the eX-
ample of its neighbor. The pending
bill is in the hands of the House
committee on education, and friends
of the community center movement
can help materially by writing to
that committee their Endorsement OF
the project.
