While Grange turned profes-
sional amid fanfare of publicity
trumpets and reaped a harvest
of gold, his classmate drifted into
comparative obscurity. He, too,
played professional football, but
there was little money and less
fame in it for a guard. After
while McMillen took up profeS'
sional wrestling, but was for
gotten figure until late last fall.
The story of their careers reads
like the fable of the hare and
the tortoise. Today Grange, the
hare, who got off to such a bril-
liant start, is nearing the twi'
light of his career as profes.
sional football player. He plans
to retire from the gridiron in an.
other year, and has no other job
in prospect. The Wheaton red
head is said to have lost most of
his fortune.
McMillen, the slow starter, is
just beginning to cash in on the
years of steady plugging that he
put in on the wrestling mat. Last
night he picked up a nice piece
of change for a bout with Sander
Szabo, the little Hungarian, at
Madison Square Garden.
McMillen turned the trick in
58:O3 with a top scissors and
bar lock, and thus went through
with the formality of qualify
ing for third bout with Jim
LOndos, recognized as cham
pion in New York and Penn
sylvania.
McMillen and Londos are the
two best drawing cards in Pro
motor Jack Curley's stable, and
from the looks of things they
will continue their exhibition
series from now until Christmas.
McMillen expects to clean up
$4,000 this year. He received
$1,000 for two previous matches
with Londos at the Garden this
year. If he takes care of him.

the mat game in IS years with
close to a million dollars.

fast if he wants to finish victor.
Unlike most of the wrestlers who
have shown here, Caddock relies
mostly upon his feet for clamping
holds on the foe.

COssack, can jump into the
limelight by defeating Dick

MAT CARD

Joe Freeman, popular Ninth
Street major domo, backed heavily
by local finance and hooked up
with the Paul Bowser string Of
wrestlers working out of Boston,
has made his second announce
ment of intention to enter the
Washington wrestling armament.
Joe has engaged the Strand
Theater for the evening Of St.
Patrick's Day, a week from to-
night, and has carded Jack
Sherry against Don De Longe as
his main attraction. This man
bout is to be backed up with a
30-minute time limit affair twixt
Stanley Stasiak and George Vos-
sell, otherwise known as VaSiliau
in his home town Of Somac
Island, Greece.
Freeman had hoped to start
in Washington with a bout in
which Gus Sonnenberg would be
featured, but called off the
match for one reason or an
other.
He states he is absolutely to
start a week from tonight at the
Strand and continue each Tues
day until the outdoor season,
when he will look for an open-a:r
auditorium. Goldie Ahearn will
referee the bouts. Ahearn is for
mer A. E. F. featherweight cham
pion.
Sherry, according to the billing,
is heavyweight champion of Ohio
and claims to have a standing
offer of $4,000 to get Jim Londos
into a ring with him. De Longe
is former circus tumbler and
claims he can tumble with the
best of the wrestlers of the mod
ern era who are exceptionally
clever gymnasts and acrobats.

Tax Collections
 Continue Good
$5O,0OO Paid in at Noon
 To-day

Despite to-day's rainy weather, receipts in the tax collectors of- fee up until early this afternoon continued to show a creditable showing on the part of local pro- perty owners in the payment of the October installment of the 1881 levy. Tax Collector William A. En- his stated early this afternoon when talked with that approxi- mately $50,000 had been paid into his office so far to-day. He added that this showing, while not suffi- cient to allay the fear that many property owners will leave them- selves liable for a nine per cent penalty after October 31st, was a good one in view of the weather.
 At noon to-day line of tax payers was in evidence at the tax collectors office. Yesterday up to noon hour a total of $70,009 had been taken in. But when the col 1ector's office closed for the day this figure had been advanced to the e106,000 mark.
 Therefore, it is figured that the receipts for to-day despite the rainy weather, in view of the $50,- wv LIS TUT tuAo WAbt oO equal to the record made yester- day and possibly better.
 So far, on the October install ment, there has been received al- most $640,000. This, of course, is far short of the figure desired as the taxes due this month total ap- proximately $2,600,000. This means that between now and closing time Saturday a little less than $2,000 must be taken in.
 Otherwise. Collector Ennis will be forced to impose the statutory penalty of per cent. after Octo- Der 31st. He stated again to-day that he is reluctant to impose this penalty in view of the depression but he has no choice in the mat ter. being governed entirely by the statutes which require the charg- ing of 9 per cent on delinquent &C., counts.
 Saturday promises to be a very busy day at the office. There is fear being expressed that if too big a rush occurs Saturday. though the office. may not be able to &C., commodate all property owners calling to settle their accounts. Therefore, Collector Ennis said to- day, he hopes that tomorrow as many as can do so will visit his of flee with their tax money and avoid the last-minute rush.
