Wrestling has reached its highest point

Wrestling has been a Major
Sport Since Time Immemorial

The Bible tells us that Jacob wrestled
with an angel and, with the power Of
God. prevailed
Wrestling, perhaps, lays claim to the
longest history Of any sport. On the
tombs Of the Pharaohs carvings have been
found which show that wrestling was a
popular sport with the Egyptian kings
thousands Of years ago. Several holds
now used among modern wrestlers are
to be found depicted in these carvings
The Romans excelled in wrestling. and
it seems that it was part Of their daily
life. 1t Was also closely allied with the
Intellectual life. as portrayed in Quin.

chapter on Exercises in Wrestling" he
would have the orator exercise in histori-
cal style.
This may seem rather complex to
some Of the wrestling gentry of today.

Francis | Of France proved himself a
great exponent of wrestling. Henry VIII
of England likewise pridcd himself for his
wrestling. lie was not content to watch
the wrestlers. but after a drinking bout
he took the French king by the collar and

proved too much for Henry, though.
Sir Thomas Parkyns, of Bunny, near
Nottingham. is another man Of culture
who was attracted by wrestling. He was
educated at Westminster School and at
Trinity College, Cambridge. There he
attracted the attention Of Sir Isaac New

KANSAS FOOTBALL srxRrs
Players Win Praetic & Days q Week
Until June.


The Jayhawkers are starting out early
on their pilgrimage to a Valley football
championship for next fall. George
t~Potsy") Clark, upon returning from
the Pacific coast. saw a big fat robin
in the back yard Of his new home in
Lawrence and straighiway proceeded to
issue a call for spring football prac.
tice. Announcements from the office Of
Coach Clark states that there will be
practice four afternoons a week until
school is out, which means until June.
This means practically five months Of
football this spring for the hopefuls
and veterans of Clark's stronghold.
The announcement further states that
the drill will at first be entirely upon
fundamentals. The recently graduated
freshmen will be treated in the same
MARINER as the sophisticated veterans.
Coach Clark states that when school
opens in the fall, all that will be neces-
sary will be to polish the rough spots
in the machine.
1t is doubtful if any college in the
country ever entered upon such a bulky
program as Clark outlined for his ath.
letes. In most college camps, two
months is considered a great sufficiency.
and the coaches find that in the late
spring. the weather conditions are any
thing but conducive to football and that
the gridsters do not take favorably TO
a strenuous campaign.
Missouri will not start spring foot
ball for some time TO come, according
to Coach Phelan, who believes that there
is still plenty of winter ahead during
the morahs Of January and February.

ELKO PEOPLE FE7E
SAMUEL s. AREN'T

Representative Sam. S. Arentz,
who arrived in Elko Tuesday eve-
ming from Washington, D. G., en-
route to the western part of the
state, was given a warm reception
by the Republican delegates who
were in Elko attending the county
convention and a dinner was ten
dered him at the Mayer hotel after
the arrival of the train from the
east. Mr.. Arentz is accompanied
by his wife and family, who will
spend the summer on their ranch
near Yerington.
About thirty-five Republicans with
their wives and friends sat down
to the dinner, with Seymour Jacobs
in charge. After the several courses
had been disposed of Mr.. Arentz
was introduced by H. U. Castle in
a neatly worded speech to which
the guest of honor responded in a
delightful address. He told of some
of his experiences in the halls of
Congress and painted highly col
ored word-picture Of how President
Harding is carrying out the work of
reconstruction, bringing the country
back to a normal basis.
1t was not a political speech, as
political speeches are usually con-
strued, but just a heart to heart
talk of the difficult task imposed
on Congress by the disruption of
the country caused by the world
war and the immensely of the task
to bring order out of chaos, her
itage left to the Republican Con-
gress by the Democrats.
The lower house, he said, had
functioned promptly and had passed
every measure called for by the
president in his several messages
but called attention to the fact that
the blocking of legislation lies solely
in the Senate; that the lower house
at the present time had nothing
whatever to do but to wait on the
pleasure of the Senate, that is now
wrangling over the important bills
already passed by the House OF
Representatives. Mr.. Arentz has
improved wonderfully in his two
years experience in Congress and
made a deep impression on his
audience by his earnest manner and
his evident grasp on the subject

About year ago farmer residing
four miles from Springfield, H., took
his horse to a veterinary, when the
animal was sick with collie. We are
told that the horse was sick again a
few weeks ago and the farmer called
veterinarian. When he arrived at
the farm, the barn door was found
kicked down and the horse was gone.
The animal was found later standing
at the door Of the "horse hospital" in
Springfield, where 1t was treated last
year.

set of men on the railroad. The
carman is a man Of intelligence and
feels his responsibility. He works
under little supervision as no one
could follow him and directly super
wise the actual performance Of his
work.
As to the degree of responsibility
reposed in this so-called "car-knock-
err" suffice to say that his judgment
is generally accepted as final by the
superintendent Of motive power, the
dispatcher and the trainmaster, in
determining whether a car can go
forward. He keeps the trains in a
safe condition night and day, year
in and year out, nd the safety of
passenger train travel and the rarity
of wrecks due to car failure is suf-
ficient testimony as to his measuring
up to his responsibilities.
Our Uncle Samuel considers this
work Of such Importance that he
employs an army of experts-known
as U. S. safety appliance inspectors
at $4,000 per annum, whose range
of required skill and necessary
knowledge includes only the safety
appliance portion of what the rail-
way carman is expected to know,
whose duty it is to make sure that
we are 100 per cent perfect in dis
covering the two hundred and some
possible defects to car equipment.
This decision of the labor board
bears all the earmarks of having
been drafted by the railroad repre-
sentatives with dotted lines con-
veniently placed at the end for the
other members to sign. In stating
that the duties Of this class of car
men do not require skilled mechan-
ical service, one is forcibly reminded
of the feudalistic days of Europe
when the robber barons rode rough
shod over their poems and slaves
upon whom they depended for their
support and comfort. In the same
manner the plutocrats Of today ride
in luxury and ease in the Pullman
palaces depending on the skill and
reliability of the railway carmen
for their safety.
