THIRD PLACE.
TEAMS FOE
IS STRONG

With the second half schedule
at the midway stage, the remain
ing games in the Recreation Soc
Ger League are full of particular
interest to the trio of teams now
heading the standing, all OF
whom should win their games TO-
morrow.
Virginia Avenue, italian A. c.
and Sun Radio are now leading
the loop with no losses and Sun
Radio has the toughest assign
ment tomorrow, stacking up
against an ancient rival, Miller
Furniture, on Monument Grounds
No. 2 field at 2:3O p. m. The
Italian A. C. will tackle New
York Avenue on No. l field OF
the Monument Grounds at 2::3O
D, M, and Virginia Avenue meets
Occoquan at No. l Monument
Grounds at l p. m. Both OF
these teams should not have any
trouble in remaining in the win
column.
Sherwood In Action
Sherwood will engage George
town on No. 2 field Of the Monu-
ment Grounds at l p. m. to
complete the days schedule.
Sun Radio first half winners
and last years champions will
have q battle on their hands
to stop the Miller Furniture
eleven as the Millers have their
full strength for this game for
the first time this season, Deco
guam may provide the only upset
by taking the Virginia Avenue
club into camp although Louie
Mitchell, the coach and player
of the Southeast lads, may be
the stumbling block of the Oc-
coquan lads. Both Italian and
Sherwood are likely to win their
contests without a great deal OF
difficulty.

spectrum. For q few minutes
there was a hurricane in the
ring. Then John, knowing that
caution was the better part Of
valor, left those parts hurriedly
and took refuge behind the
locked doors Of his dressing
room.
But wood and glass we're no
barriers to the infuriated Turk.
He drove his fist through the
door, and, bleeding terribly, was
about to hurl himself upon
Kilonis when the gendarmes ar
rived. They carted him off to
the hospital, still vowing the
most horrible vengeance.
It was a long time before
these two met in the ring again,
but when they did it was one of
the grandest brawlS in wrestling
history. They went at each
other with fists, forearmS and
elbows as well as the common,
or garden variety, Of bone
breaking holds. There were 19
knockdowns, and finally, with
both men flat on their backs,
the Greek was declared the win
ner because he had one eye
open, and both of Mustapha's
were tightly closed.
A thing like this, though, was
no more than an incident in the
busy life Of a journeyman
wrestler. So was the fracaS
with the rugged Bulldog Jack
son, who had spent most of his
life in lumber camps. Jackson
knew little of wrestling, and
much Of rough-and-tumble fight
ing. To start things off, he
stuck his huge wad of gum in
the hair on Johns chest. and
Kilonis became as frantic with
rage as Mustapha Pasha over
the mustache clipping party.
The Ringside Fans
For half an hour the men
sought to rip each other apart
with their bare hands. This
failing, Jackson tore up one of
the shaky ring posts, and hurlad
it at his enemy. His aim was
bad. but five spectators at the
ringside were knocked uncon-
Scious.
That was all. John Kilonis
led the audience in pursuit of
Bulldog Jackson up the aisle
and into the street. The logger
gave the mob the slip by run.
ming through a house and out
the back door. A bridge party
was in progress, and you can
imagine the feminine screams
as a nearly naked giant rushed
through the living room.
A fellow who lives as John
Kilonis does will never die of
hardening Of the arteries,
though he might from a broken
neck. He appears to live in a
continual round of excitement,
but I imagine he'd trade some
of the thrills for a little extra
cash such as Don George ano
Jim Browning will collect Mon
day night when they wrestle for
the ineffable Jack Curley.
No, John Kilonis doesn't make
much money, but he does seem
to have q lot Of fun.

John KiIOnis Doesn't But He Picks In His
DrdU Huge Guarantees Fun Where He Finds It,
For Wrestling Matches As Turk Mailman Learns
By JACK KOFOED

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The
name Of John Kilonis is not
bracketed with those Of Hacken-
schmidt and Londos and Cana
when wrestling heroes are dis.
cussed. John has itching feet
that take him to all corners Of
the globe, and since he is a
modest man, he asks no huge
fees for his services. The ten
thousand dollars they paid Dan
O'Mahoney in Boston last week
would seem an incredible and
fantastic sum to him. He thinks
in fiftieS and hundreds. Any
thing beyond it not for such as
he.
The Greek is muscled like a
Hercules and haired like a dog
his chest being one solid
black mat. There is little Of the
culture and mental grace Of the
old Athenians about John Kill
onis. He is hard and practical
and close to the soil. He has,
too, a humor that seems q COM
mon heritage OF the wrestling
tribe. In short, our man could
pose for a picture of a journey
man wrestler. and the picture
wouldn't need a label. He looks
the part.
Looking the part is exactly
what most of our top-notch mat
men don't want to do. Certain
", the handsome face of Jim
Londos crowned with its thatch
Of black curlS; the college boy
profile of Don George or the
pure Gaelic features Of Dan
O'Mahoney would not class
them with the grunt-and-groan
brigade.
No False Colors
But Kilonis looks and acts
like a wrestler, and this is per.
fectly all right with him. He
sails under no false colors, and
believes that beauty is only skin
deep, anyway.
One night, in Australia, John
found himself in the ring with
a Turk named Mustapha Pasha.
Greeks and Turks are natural
enemies, but KiloniS would have
disliked this fellow no matter
what his nationality. MUS
tapha's prize possession was a
perfectly enormous black mus
tache, twisted into curlycues at
each end.
He was intolerable in his
pride. He swelled and swag-
gered and strutted. It was more
than John could bear. A word
whispered to a friend at the
ringside, and the stage was set
for trouble.
The match was good enough,
but not tinged with dramatics
until Kilonis had the Turk on
the floor. Then the friend
handed pair Of shears through
the ropes. Snip, snip, and
MuStapha's marvellous mustache
was gone!
Turk Goes Berserk
The man simply went insane
with rage. He saw not OnlV
red, but all the colors Of the

STEEL WORKERS ON BRIDGE TOLD
 TO ''BE READY'
UnderwaterC Concrete, Work on Jun neau- Douglas
 Structure Found o. K.

Steel contractors on the Juneau Douglas bridge, now under con- struction, were notified yesterday by Ike P. Taylor, Chief Engineer with the Alaska Road Commission, to prepare for their part in the building of the structure. MT. Taylor, recently returned to Juneau from vacation in the States. sent the radio yesterday to the Pacific Car and Foundry Com pany of Seattle, holders of the steel fahrication and erection contract for the bridge.
 The radio was prompted by the testing of the underwater concrete construction on the last pier to be built by Dishaw and Sons, Juneau firm which is handling that end Of the building The work was fund to be satisfactory and the "seal' in perfect condition.
 About two or three more weeks remain on the Dishaw end of the work, Taylor reported. This time will be spent in pouring dry concrete on the superstructure of the pier above the water line.
 When this construction is con- pleted, the bridge will be ready for the erection of the steel frame work.
 MT. Taylor said that, with the pier work completed, he expected to see the bridge ready for open ing sometime around June 30. It is expected that the steel erection work will take about three months. The fill work at the Douglas Island approach to the structure, the last item to be done on the bridge, probably will take about two weeks.
