tending Earl Caddock who still is in
the army physically unable to defend

Ed Stranger Lewis has gained
considerable fortune and fame in
the wrestling game of late by his
development of single hold. 1t is
a head lock which he makes peculiar
affective as did the late Frank Gotch
with his famous toe hold, and Joe
Stecher with his famous scissors.
Lewis is as skillful with his head
lock as Stecher is with his scissors,
even more so, some wrestling stu
dents believe, and it is with this hold
that he won most of his victories in
the last two years.
In meeting Jim Londos, the
Greek champion of the world, he
meets one of the gamest, most
scientific and said to be the fastest
man of his weight and inches in
the world. Londos is a veteran of
the game and will give the stranger
stiff tustle as proof of his desire
and willingness to bet Lewis $500
on the side.
There has been considerable chal-
lenge back and forth between these
two men. Jack Lewis finally sue

MATCHED
WITH LONDOS IN
Omaha June II
Stranger Tackles the Greek
Champion in Finish Bout at
Local Auditorium, Direc-
ton Jack Lewis.

A wrestling match that is bound
to attract wide spread interest will
be held at the Omaha Auditorium,
the night Of June II, when Ed
Stranger Lewis, who claims the
heavyweight championship of the
world, by virtue of his recent victor-
les over Joe Stecher and Wladek
Zbyszko, meets Jim Londos, in a
finish match. The match is to be
held under the direction of Jack
Lewis, local sport promoter.
This match will mark the first ap-
pearance of Ed Stranger Lewis in
Omaha, since that memorable July
4, 1916, when he wrestled a history
masdng five hour draw with JOE
Stecher. That draw was the first
real setback suffered by peerless Joe
and it was the first intimation re-
ceived by the wrestling world that
it might be possible to stand off the
famous Nebraskan. Since that time a
number of wrestlers learned Lewis S
trick and have stayed away from
Stecher for many minutes. Lewis
himself not only continued to pre-
vent Stecher from throwing him
but in the match last spring in Chi.

ice at the time and Fitz was so
sure he could win in round or two
that he failed to pay serious atten-
ton to the matter of getting into
condition.
Jack Johnson thought he was to
meet big, numbering novice in Jess
Willard and the black was none too
careful about his training. He wait
ed so long before buckling down to
serious work that when he did be-
gin hard training he found that he
could not afford to take off all the
fat without weakening himself AS
result he went into the ring some
20 pounds above his best fighting
weight and was an easy victim
How Dempsey will act under
hard punishment never has been
demonstrated as yet. The record
books contain a line crediting old
Jim Flynn with one-round knock
out over Dempsey and Flynn never
was a great hitter.
John Lester Johnson, negro
heavyweight, who now is acting as
one Of Dempsey's sparring partners,
probably was the man that punished
Dempsey the most. This was in
the bout in which Dempsey, then
an unknown, made his first appear
ance in a New York ring. Johnson
broke two of 'Dempsey's ribs dur
ing the encounter, but the novice
never stopped forcing the fighting
Dempsey's gameness on that oc-
casion made favorable impression.
Dempsey Never Punished.
But since Dempsey improved
enough to meet the real stars of the
ring he has won all his battles with
out having his ability to withstand
punishment tested. Fred Fulton
| probably was the hardest hitter he
encountered. The giant plasterer
could hit, but he was frightened stiff
and he was knocked out before he
could land single blow.
Billy Miske landed hard and clean
ly on Dempsey number of times
when the two met in Philadelphia
last Thanksgiving day. Once dur
ing that engagement Miske set him
sci anu SloSSeQ IlSllt " tAS ia"
with the full weight of his shoulder
behind the blow. 1t never had the
least apparent effect on Dempsey,
but then, Miskc never could hit a
real crushing blow.
That Dempsey never has been
punished great deal is shown by
his appearance. His ears are as thin
as nature intended and his sharp lit
the snub nose is still in its natural
mold. Dempsey boasts that he has
not lost single drop OF blood from
that organ during his last half dozen
fights.
But while Dempsey has managed
to escape heavy punishment in most
of his engagements, he probably will
not be so fortunate, when he tackles
the giant champion. Willard has a
knack of landing his blows, and
while they may not be as snappy as
they were few years ago he is
able to put so much weight behind
them that they are bound to be
dangerous

Jack Dempsey has a fine assert
ment of sparring partners in his
training camp at Toledo. Among
them are large men and small men.
fast men and slow men. They are
all shapes and sizes, from a middle
weight to the giant Dan Daily, who
is almost as big as Willard himself.
Dempsey renewed his offer to
Harry Wills, but that ebony-hued
warrior declined with a great show
of indignation, saying he could lick
both Willard and Dempsey in one
ring. Wills has been told so often
that he is a great fighter, he has
come to believe it himself.
The funny part of it, is Wills
has talked himself right out of a
job. The other heavyweights are
talking nice to him at his own valu-
alton and one and all give him the
cold shoulder when he tries to ar
range a -match. They have read so
much about his supposed powers
that no one will meet him and as a
result he is not making as much
money as any of the third raters.
Only One Partner.
So far Willard has only one spar
ring partner. He is Jack Hemple,
who helped him prepare for his
match with Johnson and the one
with Frank Moran. Later on Will
lard expects Walter Monohan to
Join his camp. Hemple and Mono
han have spared with Willard hun
dreds of times during the cham
pion's circus days.
If Willard is wise he will obtain
several husky fellows, who can give
and take plenty of hard blows, so
that he will get used to the unex-
pected. Hemple and Monohan
both are faithful followers of the
champion whom he can trust, but
neither is live wire when it comes
to fighting. The big fellow can han
die them as though they were in
fants and this may give him false
notion of his own form.
The greatest danger for Willard is
that he may overrate his own PROV
ess and physical condition. All the
champions with the exception of
Jim Corbett made that mistake just
before they went down to defeat.
Corbett always had plenty of re-
spect for Bob Fitzsimmons and if
anything, the former was over
trained when he faced the Cornish
man at Carson City in the battle
that cost him the title.
But from Sullivan down, the 9TH
er title holders were caught out OF
condition for the battle that result
ed in their downfall. Sullivan was
not within 20 per cent of his best
form when he lost to Corbett, but
Sully paid no attention to the advice
of his friends. who warned him that
Corbett would be a tough nut to
crack and that it behooved him to
pay more serious attention to his
training.
Fitz Overconfident.
1t was overconfidence that cost
Fitzsimmons his title when he met
jim Jeffries. JEFF was . mere noy-
