WILL HELP WRESTLING
Brooklyn Man Says Rolling and Fly ing Fall' Will Produce Better Brand of Mat Sports.

New York, Dec. S.-Johnny Fleson, referee of the reCnt championship wrestling bout between StanisIaus Ibyszko and Ed, (Strangler) Lewis declared in a letter made public to- day that the rolling and flying" fall rule which enabled Zbyszko to defeat Lewis would serve to produce good, clean, scientific grappling.
 The objection raised by American wrestlers against the rule was made he said because the bridge" escape from holds was almost an unknown art to them. The bridge" he added, was almost entirely used by Graeco- Roman wrestlers.
 Heretofore, he declared American catch-as-catch-can grapplers had spe- ciallZed in one hold. used to subdue an opponent by punishment rather than for placing his shoulders on the mat.
 "One advantage of the rolling fall rule" he said, will be the ScamperinG of a lot of our grapplers to gymnas- iums to take a few lessons in holds. and escapes via the bridge or stomach roll

American Champion is Favored by a
 Decision Against Roger Cont

New York, Dec. S.-By the close of 400 to 396 Jacob Schaefer won the fifth block of the four days contest at 1S:2 balkline billiards at Maurice Dalys yesterday afternoon. Conti the young French champion. would prob ably have beaten Schaefer badly had not the referee failed to see a count that was only slight contact but was clearly visualized by many spectators
 When the youthful exponent had eighteen to go he made fourteen car Ons that were obvious. Then he made one on which the one ball barely touched the objective and settled back from 1t. The referee, Dr. Shaw, was standing in q position from which he could not sec so slight an action. He looked to see if there was a freeze and as there was none decided that the shot had not counted.

 Tactics in Securing New Players For Team,

New York, Dec. S.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-At the height of his playing career John J. McGraw then member of the Baltimore club was sold with two other star baseball players to the St. Louis team for the sum of s15,000.
 During the last 4S hours the same John J. McGraw, as ce-president of the New York National league base ball club has paid the sum of $176,- 900 for two players, one of whom will not be available for the Giants until the beginning of the 1923 season.
 In the spread of these two deals is epitomized the progress of baseball in two decades.
 Now Leading Trader
 In the purchase of Heinie Groh from Cincinnati for the reported sum of $100,0O0 and two players and Jim my OConnell of the San Francisco club of the Pacific coast league for S75,000 McGraw has clinched the claim to being the greatest baseball trader in the history of the game. In ms long career as manager ana OHlCef of the local National league club he has established a record as q buyer and trader of players never approach ed by any other major league mana ger A list of all the players bought, sold and traded by McGraw since he joined the Giants would read like the roster of a big league.
 Aptly termed the David Harum" of baseball McGraw has also earned the of "one season trader To win a pennant within six or 12 has been his objective. Players were obtained to fill a present and pressing need with the idea that they could be disposed of later when the of the moment no longer existed. The development of over period of years to bloom as stars later in foreign to McGraw's permanent plans although he has been known to hold promis ing prospect for several seasons drill ing and coaching him for permanent berth but these are exceptions.

In spending Sl75,009 for two play CTS, however McGraw appears in a new light for he has in the past traded in blocks of players rather than large sums of cash. The purchase of OCon. nell at S75.000 establishes q new record for minor league player and viewed in the light of past trading performances the question arises in the minds of baseball fans what will be McGraw's limit if he turns his attention to cash purchases. His two deals in Buffalo this week places him in the high water mark class so far as money involved is concerned as is shown by the attached list of cash deals base upon figures unonicially an- nounced at the time of transfers:

IN SOUTH DAKOTA LIFE

Aberdeen American-In a news item
in this paper the other day was a re-
markable condensation of South Da-
kota history in a single paragraph.
The sentence told of a completed
cycle by a farmer in an adjacent coun-
ty which is the completed round
which repeated over and over has
made many men rich and built a great
state.
This farmer had come to the state
thirty years ago, had paid 5000 for a
farm, made it his home, raising his
family, and is o retired with a
comfortable fortune of $4,000 on
which to live and renting the farm
to his son.
How many many times this same
story has been lived through out here
in this state. wha, generations there
are OF father and son farming the
same place and making 1t better and
better every year. They are splendid
tribe OF state builders these men who
follow the footsteps OF their sires, for
they have a good pattern to follow.
Like father, like son, except in these
days son has the added advantage of
South Dakota conveniences Of life that
father only dreamed OF.
Each OF these changing years brings
into the affairs of South Dakota life
|newfaces and new hands where older
men have shifted the burden to young
err shoulders. Invariably the story
reads that they retire in wealth.
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1921-06-16

Argus-Leader-A. C. Townley is adj
vocating state socialism for the far
mers of South Dakota. The farmers
of the state have already shown by
their lukewarm attitude toward So
cialistic schemes that they do not
want any of them. At any rate, they
are going to wait till North Dakota
becomes Stabilized" and this is not
in sight yet. AS usual it is claimed
that the men with money have brought
about the present North Dakota stu
alton. Well, it was the theory of the
North Dakota reformers that they
could get along and finance their own
affairs, and they called all men with
money, robbers, cutthroats, p%rofiteers,
thieving capitalists, and what not.
Then when they felt hard up for mon
ely. they called Upon those same men
for funds. These men naturally refus
ed to risk investments in an already
bad middle, and they were blamed
for the whole thing as usual.

aHoRsE SENSE, NEEDED

Brookings Press-The crime
wave" is a mere Pigment of the imag-
ination compared to the growing mag
nitude of the wave OF world saving"
From every nook and corner of the
country some world saving organ
ization is sending its delegations out
in to the "depraved world" and sol
letting funds to save it from the eaw-
full, awful moral sag" etc, ETC., that
it is in. One time it is some society
for the shortening of women's skirts,
at another some one wants Il exter-
inmate the rats. and at another time
ONE the delegate with biting speech
and fiery determination, who wants
TO organize humanity into a society
for making self-regulating-life pro-
grams for everybody else, ad inini-
tum, adj nauseum. And still the old
world wags on, growing better in
spite of the crime wave" and in
spite of the world saving wave.
About ninety-nine per cent of the
frantic world saving" movements are
inspired by either an ambition OF
some one to parade and strut about
wearing a high sounding title, or by
some scheming individual who wants
TO make an easy, genteel living, with
out giving the world any real service
in return. What the world needs
right now-and this need has always
since recorded history, been n of
the big ones-is a little more good
hard common sense, and a good dose
or bunk exterminator."

Onida Watchman-The Brookings
Register has peculiar ideas in that it
appears to think that there are worse
things than Sunday baseball that
might be given attention. The Reg
lister remarks thusly: Speaking of
law enforcement, the a~gitators and
reformers can find a considerable field
of endeavor in enforcing some of the
common every day laws like boot
Logging, moonshining, theiving, and
immortality in general that appear to
be a more acute problem at the pre-
sent than Sunday baseball"
