 Outside of Ehe fact that this match will Fo a long ways toward clearing up tine wrestling championship for the heavyweight class, the batte will be a settlement of an old feud between the two giants. Ever since that time A year aso when zbyszlto fouled Lewis and prec3pitassd a riot, the "Strangl- CT" has been seeking revenge. After the sudden termination of the bout Lswts declared that if Zbyszko had not fouled him he would have beater him 90 decisiveiy that the Pole would never face him again.

Promoter Jack Cur1ey has wisely selected George Bothner, the veteran wrestler, who is staging weekly wres- ting matches in Brooklyn, to referee tonIghts match. He has put the fate of wrestling in New York in the hands of a most competent official. It will be strictly up to George Bothner to see that the match Is conducted strictly on the level and the public Is safeguarded against faking, as CurIey has promised 1t will be.
 Dick Curley. the New Haven box ing and wrestling promoter, will be & ringsider at the Garden in New York tonight and will match the winner of the big match for an i'm portant grapple with Renato Gardini, the Akron. O., man, whom Zbyszko failed to pin to the floor on Mon day Dick left New Haven on the 1213 train this afternoon.
 Curley issued the following state raent to The Times today: The re- port has been published in New Ha- ven by a newspap paperman who was not even at the rinGside to see the match that the zbyszko-Gardini match was not on the Ievel. will give $500 to any person who can prove that match was not fought strictly on its mer- tts."
 This report was probably the result of an announcement made the other day by Curiey that he probably would reqnatch the pair for match to the finish.
