H. Peare (& Son i MFG. OPTICIANS REGISTERED OPTOMETRIST and Jack O'Neill, of La Grande,, who one month ago in this city wrestled away tho championship from him. So clever are both men and so even ly matched that the return match was arranged in response to a general de mand from the fans. The latter gave as their reason for asking the return mutch that the men were both so evenly matched as to science, strength, speed and aggressiveness that there would be no question that the match would be fast from start to finish. O'Neill stands ready and willing to meet any good wrestler of his weight. He has been training carefully and will be in good condition. O'Neill's reputation as a wrestler is beyond reproach. He is conscienci ous, he is proud of his ability and would much prefer to lose than not to win a contest on its merits. Ho came to La Grande expecting to locate here permanently. He had no idea of go ing on the mat again. The game was dead here up to the time the Strong Man Johnson invited someone to stay with him fifteen minutes. Knowing O'Neill's ability in the past Mr. C. D. Emahisor, well known as a lover of clean sport, prevailed upon him to tackle the Swede, the rest is history quito by accident wrestling was ire vived in La jGrande. Hare is a copy of the articles of argecment between the two men: Agreement to Wrestle. La Grande, Ore., April 11, 1917.
