Two places in the Tiger outfield were
decided long before the players put on
their uniforms. O'Reilly and Lowrance
were certain to hold down two Of the
positions and both have vindicaied Mill
er's opinion of them. In addition to
fielding brilliantly, both are connecting
with the ball for better than 800.

Carl Huber, the dandy second sacker
Of the Missourians, is enjoying a won

at present he is leading the Missouri
siickers with a mark which hovers about

Nebraska Challenger Will
Meet Champion on Mat
With Head Lock Barred

"Strangler" Lewis, the worlds wrest-
ling champion, is ready and fit to de-
fend his title against John. Pesek to-
morrow night at the list Regiment Ar
mory. The champion will not use his
deadly "head lock-" This means that
Lewis is handicapped greatly, but he is
satisfied he can retain his crown with
out it.
The rule applies strictly to the "side
chancery' grip. and does not prohibit
Lewis from using any other style of a
head lock-" He realizes that he is
meeting a very dangerous opponent in
Pesek, but, just the same, feels conf
dent the Nebraska Tiger won't defeat
him.
Pesek is a newcomer in the wrestling
game so far as the East is concerned.
He made his first appearance q few
weeks ago, and startled the wrestling
world by forcing Armos Laitinen. the
Finnish champion, to quit. Laitinen
was considered worthy to meet Lewis
for the title so when Pesek conquered
him it brought the latter great popu-
larity. In his second appearance here
Pesek defeated Tommy Draak in short
order

PHILADELPHIA, April 2.-Thc Rob-
ms Dry Dock and Eric soccer teams
played another drawn game here to-
day in their rcplayeti American Gun
scm-hnal after extra time. The score
was 4 to A. This is the third attempt
to reach a decision the teams having
battled for six hours of strenuous foot
ball.
Five thousand persons turned out to
see the contest. which was a hummer
from start to finish. The Robins won
the toss and played with a stiff breeze
in their favor. Both teams made des-
perate efforts to notch goal, Renzulli
and Ward soon being called upon to
save.
After five minutes play Koelsch
wormed his way through the Robins
defense and opened the scoring with a
lightning shot. The Robins stuck to
their work and equalized soon after
through Harry Ratican.
Erie would not be denied. and Ford
brought the scores level three minutes
before half time. The Jerseyites took
the lead soon after resuming through
Brown, and held their lead until two
minutes from time, when the Robins
stifTcned up for final effort and
cqualized through Mcclure. Sturch
gave the Brooklyn team the lead two
minutes after the start Of the extra
time, but Erie was awarded q penalty
toward the close, which Ford converted.
