DOWN FROM His PERCH

He climbed the ladder OF success,
His grip was hard, his look was

And many a mans unhappiness
Could be attributed to him.
Remorseless, pitiless and strong,
He stood upon the topmost round
A silly woman came along,
And then he tumbled to the ground.

you may draw your own conclusions
regarding the popularity of this an
cient game OF tussle and tag.
Zbysko May Get Tests
Stanislaus Zbysko, who Is now in
this country after an absence OF five
years, is likely to set a chance at
Stecher's honors before the year is
out. For one thing, he is willing to
work his way up to. the forefront
among the challengers. This Is q good
sign, both for the game and for
Dbyszko himself.
II Zbyszko could have come out OF q
prison in Europe and step right into
a match with the champion, the lat
ter would naturally carry all the
money and probably swamp the chal-
lenger.
On his arrival the great Polish
athlete issued his challenge to Stech-
er, but he Immediately went into
training and since then has been
meeting all comers with continued
success. Gradually Stanislaus will
work himself into shape for his best
work, and, when he tackles Stecher,
the bout will be worth going to see.
Frank Gotch defeated Stanislaus,
but he did so partly by trickery, and
he would never give the Pole another
chance at the title. 1t is possible that
the Elder Zbyszko may yet crown his
career by winning the worlds catch
as-catch-can crown.
The Washington times., 1920-04-07

ling. He defeated, among others,
Marin Plestina, the heavyweight who
recently performed at the Folly Thea
ter in this city. He ALSO defeated
Wladek Zbyszko and stranger"
Lewis.
When Caddock returned from
France, he was not in the best OF
health having been i'll while In the
service, but he began training and
recently defended his title against
Stecher, losing in 2:05 in New York.
Issued M..ny Complaints.
Plestina's manager is a Chicago
man who delights in issuing loud
complaints, Until Caddocl came
back to the mat. Plestina's manager
loudly clain/d the title. though
Stecher haj defeated his man. p es-
tina's =Ia~ager charged that there

Had Caddock won from Stecher at
New York, 1t might have been in or
der for the champion to have accept
ed a challenge from Plestina, but
with Stecher winning the title, Pies
tina had no more right to a match
than any other wrestler who had
faced Stecher only to be defeated.
Marin Plestina is today one OF the
leading heavyweight wrestlers In the
country. He is big enough to give
Stecher a tussle, but so is Stanislaus
Zbyszko, who is also a challenger. 1t
is probable that Stecher will clean up
as much money as he can before
stalking his title in any challenge
contest. But Stecher Is the heavy
weight champion and Plestina is not,
no matter what the latters manager
says about IL.
Too Many Champions.
One Of the faults the public finds
with professional wrestling is that
there are too many champions. Every
man who steps upon the mat is a
champion of something or other. 1t
would appear as IL they could never
lose their titles, except by death.
Tho heavyweight situation may be
fairly well traced, leaving Stecher at
the top OF the heap. but he would be
fool, indeed, who would attempt to
name the champions in any other
classes. The average wrestler Is
willing to do business" with an op-
ponent. A local favorite is permit
ted to win, wherever local managers
are not wise enough to withhold the
purses for crooked work. The nat
urol result 10 tndL one cannot read
OF a wrestling match without finding
all kinds of champions engaged. OF
course, such titles are not worth
much.
Wsstling is now on tho up and
up in America. For long time the
sport has suffered from shady per-
formers who have done their best to
kill their own game. But now, prob
ably because of the physical training
given Americas young men in the
army, the sport is popular as never
before. The leading cxponents of this
sport can make good money without
doing business" When two men can
attract 100000 to the gate in the
East, where the sport is not so well
known as IL is In the middle West,

Aloysius Dorgan Will
Be a Mascot

Not to be outdone by the New
York Giants, who are bringing
home with them as q mascot a
young Mexican wildcat, the
Yankees have added little
Aloysius Dorgan, a six-months-
old alligator, to their party.
Aloysius is to be the Yanks'
mascot for a while, not until he
grows up into a hand bag or
even a brief case, but probably
until Babe Ruth begins hitting.
Little Aloysius comes from
one of the oldest families in
Folrida. His grandfather, FL
mer, who is still alive down in
Jacksonville, remembers when
Clark Griffith was a big league
pitcher. Elmer is very, very

Jim O'Dea is preparing to give

himself at the Georgia Avenue
