POLES ANsWER NOTE

Warsaw, Aug. 7-Essentials OF
the terms of peace Poland would
agree to were set forth in the note
sent by wireless to Moscow Thurs.
day night accepting the proposal to
send delegates to Minsk to negotiate
simultaneously an arnlstice and
PEACE.
The note declared that Poland was
compelled, however, to demand for
NAL guarantees that Polish delegates
would be permitted free and uninter-
rupted communication with Warsaw.
The government also said that be-
cause of the fact that the Soviet has
refused to negotiate an armistice, hos
tilities should cease on both sides
from the moment of the beginning
of negotiations at Minsk.
The Poles, continued the note,
were ready to conclude peace on the
principle of national rights and would
try for such a solution of all ques-
tions as would guarantee peace and
friendly relations between Russia
and her neighbOrs.

CROSS RIVER BUG ..
London, Aug. 7.--Russian Bolsheviki
armies hammering the Polish lines
north and northeast of Warsaw seem
to have encountered stern resistance.
With the exception of the area around
Brest-Litovsk east of the Polish cap.
ital, no new advances by Soviet troops
have been reported and even there
they have been limited by the desper.
ate fighting Of the Poles.
Polish forces have been forced to
retire from Terespol, about miles
west of Brest.Litovsk and have lost
Muramiec. about 5 miles to the south.
Thus, the Bolsheviki have gained a
foothold on the west bank of the Bug
river in this region, but 1t Is probable
there further progress will be very
slow as forts erected years ago must
be stormed If the Soviet legions are
to gain ground there. %-

MATT GLADIATORS READY FUR START TOMORROWNIGHT

I'm the olden days the gladiators fought for the ediflcation of bowling populsce, were much the same as our modern battlers, although the methods used at that time were 0 trifle undig- nified. to say the least.
 The forms Of amusement in the days or the anCients were somewhat differ ent from the recognized sports of mod ern times. Chopping the head off an opponent with a broadaX was consid- cred the height of etiquete and jabbing a pike through a bimbo wearing a suit or steel mail. without spelling the poll ish on the suit. was pronounced a fine art.
 Times changed. however, and with the advance of civilization, these crude pastimcs were abolished and. certain changes wrought until the evolution brought to us an interesting sport known as wrestling.
 History fails to record who was re- sponsihle for the revolution, but old man Public Opinion had a whole lot to do with 1t.
 The main thing is that wrestling struck a popular chord in an otherwise discordsnt order of things. as existed at that time. and won instantaneous favor. Today it is one of the leading sports of America.
 As set forth in the opening para graph. the ancient and modern gladia- tors were much the same. The same old spirit of do or die existed then as it does now, which brings us down tc the present.
 Today the sporting populace of Phoe- nix has in their midst two modern gladistors who are the very reincarna-

ton of the ancient warriors. Both men represent the highest type of the mod ern athlete. With perfect physical de- iron sinews and muscles, backed up by resolute courage, these men have come here to demonstrate the superiority of their respective wrestling styles.
 The local devotees of wrestling have never had the privilege of viewing two finer specimens of manhood than in the persons of Pete Sauer and Fred Mooremeier, who meet in a finish match at the American Legion arena on Fri day night Trained to the minute and well versed in every trick known to the game, these men promise a contest that may carry them through rough journey before the winner is decided.
 Regardless of who proves the win ner. the fans are going to witness one of the toughest matches ever staged in Phoenix Both men are evenly matched in youth, strength and weight. Their records show practically an un- broken string of victories and they are both in a fair way to decide who shall be the next light heavyweight cham pion among the grapplers.
 Ecklund has been toting the cham pionship around with him so long that old timers fail to remember whom he captured it from. Both Sauer and Mooremeier claim they can beat Eek lund and the present match will decide who will get the next chance at the champ. There is one sure thing about Friday nights bout and that is. it has a heap of class. Rarely have the sports had the chance to witness a classiel affair than this one and the promoters deserve to receive the undivided sup port of all loyal lovers of the mat game
