thousand wrestling fans Thursday saw

throw Allan Eustace, challenger, two
straight falls, thereby retaining the
championship of the world. Stecher's
body scissors was too much for the
nervy Kansan. In the first fall the
Wakefield wrestler put up a strong
fight, to prevent his opponent from
clasping his legs around his body.
1t took Stecher an hour and thirty
five minutes to press Eustace's Shout
ders to the mat the first time. The
second fall was won in thirty minutes.
Fans declared 1t was the greatest
wrestling match they had ever wit
messed. Until Stecher clamped his
deadly scissors around Eustace after
more than an hour. of fighting, 1t
looked like anybody's fall. The cahm-
pion made short work of the contender
for his crown, once he got his famous
scissors hold to working, however.

secret from the scribes and fans until
the whistle blows.
The Washburn high school will
play the Oakland high in one of the
county championship series games this
afternoon. Both teams are stronger
than last year and this will be one of
the big county games. The game will
be played on Washburn field at $3.50.
The Washburn freshman team will
go to Buckner, Mo-, tomorrow to play
the town team. The freshmen are in
good condition now as a result of
scrimmaging daily with the varsity,
and Coach Woodward expects to bring
home the bacon. Saxon, ha1fback, is
one of the most consistent ground
gamers on the team, and does well on
defensive work.

-Four Important Games.

-Four Important Games.
The four games played today by the
Kansas conference football teams will
have an important bearing on the 1920
Championship. The most important
game is the clash between Baker uni
versity and the Pittsburg Normals.
Both of these teams are going fine
and are well coached. Pittsburg has
tied the Haskell Indians while Baker
was beaten by the redskins II to 0.
Both touchdowns against Baker were
scored on fluke plays, two intercepted
forward passes. Baker, however, de-
feated the College of Emporia last
week and practically eliminated Gwin
Henry's men from the title race. Baker
is coached by E. S. Liston, a former
Baker star, and the well known DR..
Garfield Weede is coaching the Miners.
Friends Going Good.
Friends is going like a million dol
lars. This team is considered the dark
horse of the conference. They will
meet Coach O'Rourke's team at St
Mary's this afternoon. The Saints
have been working hard for this bat
tie but unfortunately will not be able
to present their strongest lineup owing
to early season injuries. The officials
for this game are: earle Moore, ref
cree; Walton Holmes, umpire, and A.
A. Schabinger. head linesman.

Hays Plays Indians.

The Hays Normal team will journey
to Lawrense to play the Haskell In
dians. The Normals are coached by
Rock" Woodward, a former Kansas
star, and have been playing good foot
ball. They held the big Kansas Aggie
team to two touchdowns. The Indians
won their first game from Baker, were
tied by the Pittsburg Normals and
defeated last week by Phillips univer-
sity at Enid. If the redskins don't
take a brace this will be the worst
season they have ever had.

Bethany vs.. Cooper.

Bethany and Cooper meet at Linds-
borg. Neither of these teams has
done anything remarkable as yet and
the writer has not seen them in ac-
ton. but will be able to give you
better line on them later in the season.
Today it looks like a toss-up.
Southwestern and College of En-
poria will battle at Emporia. Last year
the Moundbuilders were beaten by two
touchdowns but Bill Bats has been
planning since that day. The Presby-
terians slipped last week, but il they've
found that darn dog mascot. they may
be ready to go again.
