MUM IS IMPRESSIVE
IN TOSSING ZBYSZKO

KANSAS CITY. Mo, February "a
Wayne cBig") Mum defeated Stan
islaus Zbyszko easily in straight falls
last night in his first defense OF the
wosld heavyweight wrestling cham
pionship. The ease of the victory
lent further impression to the Kan
sas City idea that Mum will be a real
champion, although but small doubt
was entertained after Mum recently
defeated Ed C"Strangler') Lewis in
q match here.
The former Nebraska foot ball star
toyed with the aged Zbyszko, who
still is one of the mat games strong
est exponents.
Mum took the first fall in 1S:40
and the second in 12:45, using a
crotch and body hold each time. 1t
was with that hold that Mum de-
feated Lewis. although he heaved the
Stranger from the ring for a foul
which cost him the second fall.
The short. squatty Zbyzko encoun-
tered great difficulty in pinning holds
on the giant Mum. Zbyszko at
tempted toe holds almost exclusively,
but Munn's great length Of leg pre-
vented the Pole reaching his foot.
Most of the contest was fought with
the men standing, struggling for the
advantage, not more than 10 minutes
of the wrestling actually being done
with the men on the mat.

PRINCESS A. C. EASY
FOR METROPOLlTANS

A 24-to-4 victory over their great
est rival, the Princess Athletic Club
five, gives the Metropolitan seItet a
fairly clear road to the championship
OF the women's Basket Ball League.
Neither team was at it's best last
night, and as the score indicates
there have been better games on the
Central High floor.
The Nets seemed to be foul shy,
while the Princess girls showed signs
Of overplayins, indicating that three
games on successive nights is too
much of an undertaking for girls.

NURMI IS DEFENDED
BY MANAGER QUIST

NEW YORK, February 12.-Paavo
Nurmi is a genuine amateur and an
am mbassador to America from his ma
tive Finland, in the words OF Hugo
Quist, who is managing the Olympic
distance champions tour.
Many hard things are being said
according to Quist, such as that
Nurmf must be making large sums of
money by appearing in America, that
he let's down in his running when
away from New York and that he
avoids meeting Joie Ray of Chicago
by stipulating odd distances.
His American friends and manager
answer all these charges. Nurmi's
expense accounts are in the hand of
the Amateur Athletic Union and not
a penny goes to the runner, he de-
clared in an interview. Furthermore,
he said, Nurmi cannot travel at his
fastest pace every time he races, for
a continuous effort at record break
ing would threaten the athletes very
existence.
The visitors choosing of distances
is laid to American track officials.
who demand that the Finn break rec
ords at every meet in which he par
ticipates He cannot be expected to
break the mile record, for instance,
time after time, Quist said, and he
cannot be expected to meet cham-
pions at certain distances in every
set of games.
However, the manager went on.
Nurmi will give Ray every chance for
revenge for the defeats he has suf-
tered at the mile and the three -fourths
of a mile before leaving the United
States.

CELTICS Will FACE
BETTER PALACE FIVE

An unbeaten basket ball team will
meet the original Celtics on Sunday
when the Palace Laundry five play
the world champions in the Arcade.
Since the addition Of Red Conaty three
weeks ago the Palace five has scored
IL straight victories. On the road
and at home 1t has stopped such ag
gregations as the KingstonA the
Rochester Centrals, the Beloit and
Fond du Lac teams.
And the Palace Club Is out for titu-
lar honors. Haggerty, Conaty,
Schmee1k, Bushnan, Cooney and Ben
zoni, with IL games tucked away,
feel that they are capable of defeat
ing the Celtics. The Originals, with
Holman, Beckman, Lopschick, Deh-
Eert and Leonard. are considerably
larger men than the Palace players,
but will find a different brand of play
than they encountered when they Wis
tied and took the long end of 3s-to-
"a count.

star mermaids who were point win
ners at the last Olympics, retained
their national indoor championships
In the Alcazar pool here yesterday in
the second day Of the f1ve-day cham

wright romped off with the 220-yard
title In the fast time OF $3.50 l-5. while
Miss Bauer again showed her suprem-
acy In the 100-yard backstroke test
By winning the 22o-yard title Miss
Wainwright accounted for her second
title in the four contested to date, as
she won the pentathlon honors Tues
day. She gave a wonderful exhibi-
tion of courage this afternoon. max
ing a great sprint for the victory In
the final rs yards. She beat Ethel
Lackie of Chicago by great spurt.
Miss Bauer, who has no rival in
her speciality, had things pretty much
her own way in the 100-yard back
stroke championship. She won her
heat In handy fashion and then took
the final in 1:15, which is a second
behind her world record.
Aileen Riggin OF New York and
Dorothy Colter or Detroit engaged IN
a close battle for second honors, the
New York girl taking the place. The
Detroit girl defeated Miss Rigsin in
a preliminary heat, but tired near the
finish in the final
Although no marks were broken in
the national championships. one ma
tional record was twice bettered in
the 5o-yard Florida title event by
Agnes Geraghty of the New York
Women's Swimming Association. Miss
Geraghty won her heat in 3s seconds,
which betters her record Of OBS 1-5
made at Miami last year. In the final
she bettered this mark again when
she triumphed in 0:37 As. This time
will stand as a national record.
Miss Geraghty was forced to rec
ord figures by Eleanor Coleman of
Milwaukee, who trailed her by q close
margin in both the heat and the final.

STELLAR TRIO TO RUN
IN GEORGETOWN 800

One of the feature numbers of the
Georgetown University track and
field games to be held in Convention
Hall February 21. will be the 500
meter special in which several OF the
country's stars at that distance will
compete. Notable entries are Allen
Helfrich OF Penn State, Ray watson,
Illinois Athletic Club, and George
Marsters, noted Hilltop runner.
Watson's performance probably will
be well worth watching. Few track
fans of this section have seen the
former University of Kansas flyer in
action since he lost a hand in an ac-
cident. The injury however, apparent
ly, has not detracted from Watson's
speed, for he made a gallant showing in
the Olympcs at Paris.
The distance is especially suitable
to the stellar trio. Helfrich as well
as Watson has been running in great
form this Winter, while Marsters has
equaled the world indoor half mile
record in the present campaign and is
accounted the best in the country at
a race around 1000 yards.
