FOUR MATCHES
SCHEDULED ON
FRIDAY : CARD

John Paul Jones, former Texas
Ranger and famous throughout the
country for his body-hook- scissors,
has been paired with Ernie Dusek
for the semi-final on Friday nights
wrestling card.
Next to Joe Stecher's famous
body scissors, but which are applied
in a different way, Jones scissors
are the most feared They are
shorter than Stecher's and he has
a peculiar way of adjusting the heel
of one foot in his opponents abb
domen while applying the hold.
Ernie, according to Paul, who is
himself no Weak-sister, will succumb
to the scissors if they can be once
applied.
A newcomer this week, however,
is the man who won the worlds
heavyweight amateur wrestling
championship at the Olympic games
in Los Angeles in 1882. He is Pete
Mehringer, German American, who,
at 191 pounds beat the best the
world coudl offer in the heavyweight
ranks.
Since turning professional, Pete
has gone to 220-pounds, and has
developed into a real first-class
grappler. He has yet to lose a pro-
fessional bout, and for that reason
Promoter ContoS considered Kimon
Kudo as the only suitable opponent
for him.
The main bout on this card, how
ever, is the one that holds out the
greatest attraction Friday night.
Sander Szabo will mix it with Nick
Lutte in what promises to be a real
wrestling match, replete with science
and devoid of the rough-house
tactics that turned wrestling" into
"raSSling" Nick claims that he had
Szabo pinned the last time out, but
that Referee big Bill" Tackett was
too slow in seeing it, and therefore
demanded an opportunity to come
back at Szabo. but under the watch
full eye of Bull" Montana, erSt-
while movie star, and wrestler, who
is officiating while Bill Tackett is
on a well-earned vacation.
An additional preliminary will

HEAT on the inside created by friction
is the main cause of blOwouts. Firestone
Tires are different on the inside-they are

TRACK STARS
FLOCk|NG IN
At BERKELEY
BY CHARLES MOORE
Jnited Press Staff Correspondent

BERKELEY, Calf, June Is. -
Some of the nations best track
athletes limbered up train-cramped
muscles on the gray cinder track at
Edwards Field here today in prepar-
alton for the National Collegiate
track and field meet Friday and
Saturday.
With every train bringing addi-
tional star runners, jumpers and
weight tossers, interest in track was
at it's highest peak since the 1. c..
A. A. A. A. meet here in 1882, and
officials believed standing room
only would be available when final
events get under way Saturday.
The smooth-surfaced, slightly
banked running oval, always one
of the fastest in the country, was
reported in it's best condition of the
season, and athletes and officials
joined in predicting record break
ing performances in the track
events.
Eulace Peacock, Negro flyer from
Temple university, was among early
arrivals at the track. He rambled
through easy springs today as he
tapered off for trial heats Friday.
Glenn (Pop) Warner, Temple foot
ball mentor, has expressed conf
dence the dark star will press Jesse
Owens of Ohio State closely in both
sprintS, and may defeat Califor-
MAS George Anderson. Peacock
has run the 100-yard dash in 9.5
seconds, the 900 in ZIG and has
equalled the world record in the
100-meter sprint.
Bob Grieve of Illinois, sprinter
who ran a close second to Owens
in the big Ten" 100, also was
among early arrivals and has work.
ed out here for the past two days.
Running through trials with easy
grace and power, Grieve appears to
be in shape to give the more wide
Unknown sprinters a battle for
high-point places.
Anderson, who has gone through
only gliht training session since
his defeat by Foy Draper of the
University of Southern California
in the I. C. A "A. A. A. 220-yard
dash, also is reported by Coach
Brutus Hamilton to be in better
trim than he was in the eastern
meet. Anderson, although generally
rated a decided underdog to the
record-breaking Owens, will hold a
slight advantage in that he will
not be forced to run heats in at
least three events as will the Dus-
ky Buckeye runner.

California; Golden Bears ruled
even money favorites today as tens
of thousands of rowing enthusiasts
crowded into this little Hudson

Poughkeepsie regatta.
Veteran river men, although eX-
pecting anything but a runaway

varsity event. Second consideration

the towns lone bookie was split be-
tween another west coast entry,

the east, Navy's dark blue boat.
The winner, according to all but

from this outstanding trio. Penn,
Cornell and Syracuse, rated strict
ly on form and off the records Of
time trials, have no business fin
ishing as good as third, while Co.

men of Morningside, is relegated to
seventh and last place.
1t will be near twilight when
some 10000 spectators, lining the
four-mile stretch between Krum
Elbow and Blue Point echo the yell
starting the varsity test. This race
is scheduled to start at p. m. EDIT
but the Poughkeepsie is tradition
ally late in getting under way. At
5 p. m, five crews, California,
Washington, Syracuse, Navy and
Columbia will start the two-mile
freshman sprint, AS in the varsity
event the coast boatloads are ia
vored. Syracuse is third choice, and
Navy and Columbia are expected
to fight for fourth place.
One hour later the three mile
JayVee contest will be held. -Four

PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES
By United Press

by united Press
The second half of the Pacific
Coasts 1885 season, starting all the
teams from scratch today, held
forth a promise of several inter-
esting battles as sidelights to the
pennant race.
Oscar Eckhardt, Missions, and
Smead Jolley, Hollywood, are lock-
ed in a struggle for the individual
batting championship.
Gene Lillard, Los Angeles, and
Joe Di Maggie, San Francisco
Seals, are dueling for the home run
title.
AS the teams launched a new
schedule and a new campaign to-
day Eckhardt held a 23-point lead
over Jolley, through his slugging in
the last week. But Jolley was on
top only two weeks before and he
says he can get there again
Strangely, Eckhardt, despite his
1913 hits, has failed to connect for
a single circuit blow. Jolley has IA
homers to his credit.
Lillard was off to a good start in
the home run duel while Di Maggie
was in batting slump. In the last
seven games, however, the San
Francisco youth, owned by the New
York Yankees, has hit six homers
to bring his season total to II,
while Lillard has 25.
Los Angeles, pennant winners for
two years, remained the strongest

formance. San FranciSco's Seals

So, all that is needed to complete
the dizzy chain of form reversS.s
is for Columbia Cor Cornell or Sy-
racuse, for that matter to swing
down the river ahead of California,
Washington, Navy and Pennsylva-

the experts who have predicted
California, Washington and Navy

thing in their favor-they won't
have to hide. Because, for some
reason or other, the start of the
Poughkeepsie regatta is SO nicely
timed that it starts in the dusk
and ends in what realiStS call pitch,
black dark.
This is very helpful to the press,
for all the rowing writer's have TO
do to learn the winner is to stick
their heads above the blackberry
bushes on the bank where they're
perched, and holler across the river:

California is the crew that the
