BIG BOYS STAGE CRACKING
GOOD WRESTLING MATCH

have never seen Neal Olson, tie
so-called Swedish champion, but I'll
bet my last years straw hat that those
who remained at the Opera House
last night saw a far and away better
wrestling scrap when Mclaughlin
met Stevens, than if Big Neal had
performed.
1t was one of the prettiest, one of
the cleanest, one of the hardest
fought mat battles Americas fans
have ever seen.
The management announced that
Neal Olson was very i'll and
that Mclaughlin would meet Stevens
and if there were any who after see
ing the match felt they wanted their
money back, it was waiting for them
at the box office. A few left at this
juncture.
A fair-sized crowd was present
when George Leary took up Nc
Laughlin's challenge to stay with him
for 10 minutes. George worked
hard, but was no match for Nc. In
a 1-2 minutes Nc had his shoulders
on the mat.
Alec A. Thomas, semi-pro'
wrestler of Savannah, refereed the
matches and gave entire satisfaction
to both the principals and the wrest
lers.
Match Starts
At O'Clock Harry Stevens, of Ma
con, 205 pounds of muscle and skill,
shook hands with Frank McLaugh-
lin, a 23-year-old 210-pound bull
for strength, and for 60 minutes it
was a draw. Stevens outclassed Nc.
Laughlin in training and scientific
wrestling, but the superb strength of
Nc. and his quick work on the mat
prevented Harry from gaining fall.
Two harder working fellows are sell
dom seen. They fought every sec
ond of the hour, each trying his ut
most for fall.
During the first 20 minutes some
feeling between the two developed
and bit of rough work was in evil
dence, but the referee stopped it
short. Never blow was struck nor
a harsh word from wrestlers or audi
ence was heard. The mat was too
small for spectacular work. The
wrestlers were constantly being stop
ped and put back to the center of
the mat. 1t was hot and their sweaty
bodies made it almost impossible for
either to gain hold that meant vic
tory. At one time Nc got wrist
hold that came near putting Stevens
out. At another time Stevens worked
Nc into deadlock that looked like !
a fall.
Stevens kept up an almost constant |
flow of kidding, seemingly trying to
get Mes goat" but the youngster
held his head and saved his wind and |
the outcome showed his good judg- |
ment, for Stevens has thrown some

mighty good men. Both shook hands
in the best of humor after the hour S
gruelling battle, blowing, wet but
happy.
Russian Challenger
Joe Swindell, 23O pounds, of Waco,
Texas, Russian wrestler, challenged
the winner of last nights match, the
challenge being intended for either
Stevens or Olson. However, Stevens
and Mclaughlin both agreed to meet
the Terrible Bolshevik and matched
for the first go at him. Mclaughlin
won and the management announc-
ed that Swindell would meet Nc
Laugblin here on or about May 10,
provided he would agree to the sub
stitution of Mclaughlin for Olson.
This Joe Swindell," the manager
told me, sis great wrestler, full
of pep, one of those rush and grab
fellows, who wants plenty of room
and large mat. He is what we call
a really spectacular wrestler, one of
those boys that keep the audience on
their feet. He spends little time on
the mat. There's more foot work
than you saw tonight. It's just the
sort of work to keep a crowd happy,
excited and yelling. He will have his
hands full with Mclaughlin. Nc is
young, but strong as bull. He is
learning the finer points fast and will
go right to the top.
you saw how hard Stevens work.
ed to get him, only to fail. He just
can't be held and he has the heart of
lion. l have never seen him hollow
quits yet. Harry has lots of skill,
but can't match Mes strength.
eve have another Russian chal-
lenger who probably will follow Swim
dell, one Joan Smyrnoff, 225 pounds,
now working in Texas. He is one of
the top-notchers."
Stevens Makes Talk
After the matches, Harry Stevens
spoke to the audience. Said he:
81 am from Macon, where l con-
duct gymnasium or athletic club.
A few years ago the doctors told me
| could not live long. | weighed less
than 1875 pounds and could not throw
a kitten. You have seen tonight
what scientific physical training con
do. | am as healthy as the best,
weigh 205 pounds and though I've
been in a Commute match, l am
ready for another. And | want to
tell you fellows that you've seen a
match, too. Mes some boy
and is going to the top. Take the
lesson of my regained health to your
selves and begin regular, consistent
exercise every day. You will live
longer, live better and be happier. 1t

Americas has the opportunity of
enjoying some of the cleanest, most
sport in the world, if it
wants it. The exhibition last night
should have had a crowded house. 1t
merited it. The next one promises
} be even better one.
And, by the way, don't let that
i9c price keep you away. The reason
it is 40 cents instead of 81 is to
escape the federal and state exhibi-
ion tax of $3.50 on each match. The
promoters have been asked to make
future dates on Thursday evenings,
so the half holiday fellows can wind |
Up their day with real sport.

How New Process Makes
Yeast Doubly Effective

While Science admits that Yeast is
Of wonderful value in building flesh,
clearing the skin, and increasing
energy, it is found that yeast alone is
mot enough to bring 100 per cent re-
suits. For while yeast contains certain
vital health-building elements, expert
ments prove that some other agent is
needed In order to quickly CONVERT
these important yeast elements into
new firm tissue, energy and health.
Everyone knows the great value of

Here's flmland's most beautiful
nose. Carlton Gardell, world fam
Gus sculptor, and Paul Tribe, interna-
tionally known artist and designer,
agree that Betty Compson's nose is
perfect. The pretty Paramount stars
nose was chosen as the most perfect
by the two artists after studying
scores of photographs.
"The nose plays great part in a
woman's facial beauty" said Gardell.
"Without good looking nose no wo-
man can be considered truly beauti-
full Miss Compson's perfect nose is
one of the reasons for her attractive
ness"
