HACKERS OF ZBYSzK0 CLAIM Big
POLE LOGICAL WRESTLING CHAMP
Manager Herman Is Anxious to Match Stan With
Lewis Stecher, Caddock, .Pleshna or
Pesek-Bg Money for Backing

has been standing for three months
without word from Plestina. 1t is
not stage money, for Herman's finan-
cial standing is such that he does not
have to resort 10 the bunk.
The prospects are that in tho near
future the big guns" will be COM
PEELED by the pressure of public opin
ion to pay some attention to Zbyszko,
as Tex Richard, who controls Madison
Square Garden, has faeen negotiating
with the Pole and Fiestina for a
match. and the inducements he offers
probably will be of such magnitude
that Piestina either will have to ac-
cept or take the famous run out
powder in public.
Herman is not the only wrestling
expert who believes that the top
notchers have good reason to steer
clear OF Zbyszko as long as the pub
lie will stand for it. Critics all over
the country who have watched Stan
in action lately are outspoken in the
belief that this amazing athlete. who
has reached an age when most of his
contemporaries would be on the shelf
is by far the class of the wrestling
world.
''Zbyszko today is a better man than
he was before the war, when he was
wrostlers OF all time, said Herman.
II do not make that statement for the
mere purpose of getting into print. ]
am willing to back it up with cold
cash. Stranger Lewis, who holds the
championship, must have some doubts
about his ability to dispose of Zbyszko.
for the Stranger is turning a deaf
ear to my proposition of a guarantee
of 10000 to meet my man, win. lost
or draw. l don't know what more
could DO.
'If Lewis, Stecher. Caddock. Plestina
and Pesek continue to dodge the is
sue, ignoring the extraordinary hnan-
cial inducements We are offering, then
it will be up to the public to decide
who is the real champion. Anybody
who has seen Zbyszqo in action knows
whether he is entitled to try at the
championship. His challenges cannot
be ignored on the ground that there
Is anybody else moro deserving of
match. If all the leaders in the mat
camo decline to meet this man under
guarantees which insure that they will
be well paid whether they win or lost,
there is but one answer. They are
afraid to meet him
we believe the public will support
US in our demand that these me- either
meet zbyszko or admit that they are
afraid to do so. All of them have
them has advanced one valid reason
for ignoring ZbysZko. Richard may
bring matters to a head now that he
has become interested in wrestling. and
/ believe Plcstina is the first ono
whose hand will be forced.
AT any ratio we want action, and
We are going to get it.
Herman has made arrangements for
a tour to tho Pacific coast during which
Zbyszko will take on all tho western
cracks. The big Pole is in maguifi-
cent condition now. His amazing feat
in getting down to his old weight has
not injured him in any way. He does
enough work every day to keep on
edge, and could take on a champion
ship match on "a hours notice.
