Maine WrestlerS
Show Up Strong With
Carnival Champions

Ernest BALKAN Of Gardiner Defeats
, Talks in Tuesday Night Match%
+ Ernest Abbott Of Sidney the Az
oressor in Match With Spheeris
Thursday Evening and Desires to
[ Meet Spheeris in Finish Match
. Charley Spheeris who lays claim to
the middle weight wrestling cham
pionship Of the United States. and his
side partner, Talks. who are exhibit
ing at the American Exposition
Shows at Capitol park this week, are
drawing some of the fire from num-
Der Of the well known Maine wrest-
lers.
/. On Tuesday night Talks was de-
feated by Ernest BALKAN of Gardiner
who is probably one Of the strongest
propositions he has had occasion to
take hold of for some time in a five
minute match. On the same night,
BALKAN stayed with Spheeris five min
|uteS but was unable to secure fall
within that time. OnsTuesday even
ing also, Michaud, a Lewiston boy,
appeared followed over by lively
bunch Of hackers. He also stayed
with his man the allotted five minutes.
Things developed rather unexpect-
eddy for Spheeris Thursday evening,
when Ernest Abbott, reckoned as
probably the best wrestler in the
State. appeared in five minute go.
Abbott was followed by a large
bunch of local supporters who gave
vent to their feelings during the bout
in no uncertain way. They were evil
IDENTIFY out to see their favorite win,
and in this they were not disappoint-
ed. While Abbott did not have time
enough to secure fall, had the bout
<one much longer he undoubtedly
would have, as number of times he
had his man nearly ready for the
count Abbott was the aggressor at
all timse and was able to handle his
man throughout.
Abbott finished in great form and
at the close of it made the statement
that he wished to meet this champion
in a finish mach if proper arrange
ments could be made. No word was
forthcoming from Speeris as to the
acceptance of this offer
1t must be handed to Spheeris,
however. that he is good man. He
is strong and always puts up a great
fight. He says that he has not yet
been defeated.
The crowd last evening was typical
of real lot of local fans, the arena
was crowded with sportsmen who
were eager to witness this battle and
at the conclusion muhc favorable
comment was manifested.
1t is understood that some local
promoters are to bring some more
good men to the Capital City during
the remaining two days for a match
or series Of matches with both
Spheeris and Talks.
The Carnival will be open Satur-
day afternoon beginning at 2 o'clock.
