Holy Gross as:
Athletic Rival
Break in Relations Between
Oldtime Foes Follows Re.
fusalto PlayF Footba'lCanle

Fordham has severed athletic rela-
items with its ancient rival, Ho,v
Cross, according to an announcement
given out last night BY Jack MulcaA,,
the graduate manager of athletics at
the Bronx instituticr The break as
the result of Holy Cross's refusal to
play the Maroon football team last
month after the local eleven had jour-
neyed up to Worcester for the con-
test, which was scheduled to be PLAYED
there on Thanksgiving Day. --
The Purple management's pretext
for the cancellation was that the slight
nowfalls during the morning made
the field too muddy for the game to be
played Mulcahy wanted to keep the
Fordham squad in Worcester until the
following Saturday, November 27, and
play the game on that day. but the
Holy Cross authorities declined the
offer on the ground that it would .bo
too close to the Hoston College game,
which was scheduled to be played a
week later. on December 4.
The break in relations means that
the Frdham- Holy Cross football game
which was due to be played ut Ford
ham Field in 1921 is off, and the two
diamond contests scheduled for next
spring have been Cancelled The Ma
room track management has also called,

meet, which was to be held between

The end came so quickly and so
dramatically that the 5000 peering
through the smoke fog that filled the
armory were dazed for a while. too
dazed to acclaim the new champion.
When the ponderous form Of Lewis
rose Stecher's slim body was dragged
up painfully. He staggered and his
seconds pushed him into chair. Me-
cbanically he held out his hand, but he
did not seem to know where Lewis was
standing.
Up to that last bewldering series of
holds it seemed like a fairly even
match. There were few in the gather
ing who were not fully confident that
eventually Stecher would clamp that
boa constructor scissors hold around
I,ewis's body and crush him into sub
mission. Three times he had that
hold, but three times Lewis, paving,
cawing and thrashing his ponedrous
body about, broke free.
Weakened by Headlocks
The head holds came one after the
other. each one dazing and weakening
the champion. 1t was the left arm of
Lewis, clamped into relentless, living
wise. that did the trick, that pressed

brain was numb and until he felt that
his head had been pressed into an I'M
peuetrable thickness of concrete.
In came Stecher six times with that
wise clamped around his head, but each
time he went down again weaker than
before, and it was noticed that his knees
were beginning to sag. That seventh
time he did not come up. Lewis, with
the light of victory in his eyes, gripped
the head in that relentless wise of his
left arm and, with the right locked
across Stechers hip, pressed him to the
mat.
One of the champions shoulders was
sunk deep into the mat. The slim body
turned slowly as the crowd on the floor
pressed forward to peer through the
smoke fog. Little George Bothner bent
lower, raising one arm. He brought it
down with slap on the back o. Lewis,
the Stranger. The drama in the smoke
mists was ended. Stecher had passed
and Lewis. the Stranger. was heavy
weight wrestling champion of the
world. His royal purple bathrobe be-
came the mantle of Gotch.
For months Lewis has been working
that wise of his on a wooden head and
telling himself that it was the head Of
Joe Stecher. Last night he held the
real head in its grip and it could not
withstand the pressure as did the dunn
my head.

He was enveloped in plaid robe.
Stanislaus Zbyszko came in to chal-

brought her back to Washington and
she decided to make her homo here.
Born in England, Miss Winston spent
her girlhood in Australia, where she
was thoroughly coached for q dramatic
career until the beauty of her voice
changed 1t to opera With small
company of Australians she was the
hrst singer to introduce opera in the
states Of Washington and Oregon-and
the telling of it made little story:
They were splendid people out there,
but at that time they knew nothing Of
opera, SO that the attendance the" first
week was discouragingly small. Then
prominent man in one Of the states
demanded. in print. to know whether or
not the people were stones. that they
were willing to miss their first chance
to know the real meaning of music, and
after that we had full houses right
along.I
Miss Winston is a handsome woman
with the magic melody of a speaking
voice and genius for housek eepine that
expresses itself in an artistically pretty
home. enriched with mementocs of her
world-wanderings. She keeps up her
painting, and. as always. is a student of
languages. reading in both French and
Italian. She never expects to sing again
professionally, though she has been
asked to name her own terms. She
lives her life in quietly happy fashion
and never gets lonely. for the reason
that. as she says. she sings to herself
and sometimes talks to her dear things
and she has friends and health and
other blessings Of life-and. in memory
OF her own happy experience, Is much In

company and other movements along
