Ed "Strangler' Lewis, who will
wrestle Joe Stecher for the worlds
championship Friday night at the list
Regiment Armory, is so confident that
he will win the title that he is predict
ing quick victory. The powerful Ken
tuckian has developed his deadlock to
such a state of perfection that he fig
ures the title holder will be forced
to succumb in less than an hour.
Lewis contends that even though he
was beaten by Setcher in their last
match here he should have wound up
victorious.
II took Stccher too lightly" said the
Stranger last night, land if had paid
any attention to his powerful legs and
lightning moves I would have been
acclaimed the champion. That defeat
cost me over $4,000, SO I intend to
make sure that | won't repeat that
costly error on Friday evening"
This match will bring together the
two foremost wrestlers in the game
to-day. Quite a delegation of out-of-
town wrestling fans will be at the
ringsdc. From Louisville, where Lewis
was born. there will be number Of

announced last night at the conclusion
of joint meeting Of the junior and

double to left field. When Keough
grounded to Fletcher, Halloran made
the mistake of trying to advance to
third after the shortstop had bluffed
him back. Evidently he had never

Earlier Dates for
Senior and Junior
Met Title Meets

Norman F. Torrance, the defending
champion, was eliminated in the open
ing round of the Crescent Athletic Club
squash tennis championship tourney,
which began on the Brooklyn courts
yesterday. The title holder fell before
Harold Rowe by score Of SIS, 15--7,
l7-15. Torrance has held the title for
the last two years.
The defeat Of Torrance was sur
prise, as he was expected to easily dis
pose Of his younger rival. However,
the task of playing three games proved
TOO much for the veteran. In the first
game Rowe was a victim to the speed
and varied attack of Torrance, who
gathered his aces in clusters. In the
other game played. c. West Dingee won
rather easily from H. G. PRESS by a
score of 1915, 15-S. The speed OF
Dingee proved the dominant factor in
his victory
