Marin Plestina, the heavyweight grap- pier who lays claim to the title which Joe Stecher insists in his, relates one of the funniest incidents in his career.
 "It happened in Minneapolis last spring." he said. T appeared at a the atre there for a weeks engagement, agreeing to give s25o to any man that couldn't throw in 15 minutes and s1,0V0 to anyone who secured fall over me-
 While I was fooling around with the man who took me up on my challenge, heard an argument back of the stage between J. c. Marsh, my manager and the owner of the theatre. I couldn't get enough of the conversation to know what it was all about, but saw four big huskies standing around in wrestling togs.
 Usually. in such matches, don't try to throw the man right away. The crowd likes to see little action. So I con- tinued to let my opponent play around until Marsh came out of the wings and said:
 Please get busy In hurry. This theatre manager says you must throw all the men he sends at you in a total time of 15 minutes. And there's four more waiting
 That was a rather large job to tackle tossing five men in a total of 15 minutes But orders were orders. So I got busy and dumped the fellow I had been play ing with The total time consumed for him was three and a half minutes. They sent the second bruiser into the ring,

and l tossed him in one minute flat
 The third one was a little tougher. And, furthermore, he tried all the tricks he could think of to evade me He was pretty slippery, but finally I got the double wrist lock, and he was through in a total of four minutes.
 That meant eight and one-haIf min- uteS gone and six and one-haIf left to throw the remaining two. The whole bunch of wrestlers had agreed among themselves to split the s250 five ways, no matter which was the last man to go on. So they were all working together against time.
 "The fourth fellow tried the runaway game, and tried to put on a marathon race. But caught up with him, lifted him up, dumped him to the floor and before he could roll away pinned him total time two minutes.
 T had four and half minutes to throw the last man. When he came on he looked every inch wrestler. learned later that his name was John- son, that he weighed 216 pounds, had been wrestling for years and had~nevor lost a match.
 They had saved Johnson for the last. figuring he'd get me when was tired, and that not only would he be able to stay out the balance of the 15 minutes. but they had banked rather heavily that he would secure a fall and the $10O0,

 Big tire users do not guess at these things. On stage lines, taxis, trucks, etc, service is compared. Often a score of rival tires are compared with Millers, and on millions of miles of road.

Joe Cofndaffer Holds Atlanta Eight Scattered Singles and No Earned Runs-Sheehan Chased to Show
 CTS by Baronia Attack-Barons Fatten Their Batting Averages

A concentrated bomb of Baronial hits, runs and fury broke over Rick wood park yesterday and the luckless Atlanta Crackers, moseying around un- derneath, were completely crushed by the avalanche of pent-up activities. Not once did Charlie Franks hirelings have even peep in on the decision and it was with ridiculous ease that the Barons were able to win the too onesided affair, to l.
 The Barons tallied almost at will and working while the sun was shin ing piled up five runs in the first two innings enough to send Cracker pitcher Sheehan scooting for the showers.
 The Barons devoted the first four of their eight turns at bat in slipping the game to cold storage and it was in these initial frames that all the locals scores were sent across the plate. In the latter four, Morris, who relieved Sheehan at the end of the second inning, held the Barons score less, hitless and baseless.
 JOE IS INTANGIBLE
 Meanwhile Joe Coffindaffer was passing around a variety of pitching that was indigestible to the Crackers. The Atlanta troupe was able to earn not a singe run off Coffy, their one tally resulting from Meeks error in bumfoozlng Mitweeds' single to right with Wingo on third. Coffindaffer al- lowed only eight hits, well scattered and easily offset by tight pitching in the pinches.
 The Barons scored early according to their custom, and after piling up a nine-run lead settled down to hold ing the Crackers to the minimum tal- lies It was not until the seventh that the Atlanta baseball jugglers were able to score. Wingo grounded to Bernsen and was credited with single, as there was no one to cover the bag. Bernie lost his head and threw the ball to the bag, neverthe- less, and Wingo went to second, He was advanced to third on Kauffman's infield out to Stevenson. King popped up to Barnhart, but Mitweed singled to right and Meeks let the ball get through his feet Mitweed pulled up on third, after Wlngo had scored. Powell flew out to Meeks.
