(AP) Ed "Strangler" Lewis, jubilant to day in his triumph last night over Joe Stecher. pledged himself to any outstanding challenger for the heavyweight wrestling title, anywhere, anytime, a suit able offer was forthcoming. Billy Sandow, his manager, re ceived numerous offers, one of $20,000 from Chicago, for a match with Hans Steinke, the ponderous German. Steinke is recognized as the world's heavyweight champion by the New York athletic commis sion and has been seeking a match with Lewis ever since he became a threat in the heavyweight ranks. Stecher and his brother-manager, Tony, were not discouraged by the defeat, but they protested mildly over the decision of Harry 3. Sharpe, the referee, in awarding .he third and deciding fall to Lew is. One of Stecher's legs was off he mat and the other was en ' angled in the lower rope of the ing when Lewis clamped his rice ike grip on Stecher, forcing his ihoulders to the mat. Tony Stecher said the men were supposed to go to the center of he ring and resume a standing po sition if they went to the edge of he ring or became entangled in .he ropes. He said the fact that Joe's legs were waving in the air ver the edgo of the ring and the opes, made it impossible for ilm to defend himself because he ould not put his feet on the mat o bridge. 1 The match was not such a lreary show for Promoter Tom acks after all, although the slow- moving, cautious bout did not pro- luce many thrills for the spectat- irs. Although no official figures .vere available, it was estimated .he receipts were around $60,000 o $63,000, with a crowd estlmat id at 6,500. Lewis was reported to have re eived 30 per cent of the net with i0 per cent- of the net going to Stecher. It was figured that under his division Stecher might draw Iown $29,000 with $19,000 going to Lewis. The consensus today was that he match was hunestty contested. NEW YORK, Feb. 21. (AP) The crown that Tommy Longhran captured from Mike McTigue and promised to defend once a. month if possible against the best of the light heavyweights Is going into mothballs for three months but it's not Tommy's fault. Lack of a suitable opponent and a date that does not conflict with either a welterweight champion ship match or one of the heavy weight extravaganzas in Tex i2 urmstnn'Rlckard's elimination "finals" has (21 CamDbeli:'orced Loughran's inactivity, the Sparks Wil-i1'" pouna imenoiaer aeciarea on ui3 return ioay - io new ion fter a month's cruise through the Caribbean. Decision to sidetrack Tommy for the time being will permit a match between Leo Lomski who already has failed to lift the cham pion's mantle, and Joe Sekyra of Dayton, latest sensation in the light heavyweight ranks. The match probably will be made for late in March with the winner meeting Longhran in a title test in April or May. Injury to Jimmy Slattery s hand has forced the Buffalo challenger from the lists temporarily. Ace Hudkins, who trounced Sammy Baker In a vicious "rub ber" match at Madison Square Garden Friday night, took his Challenge of Joe Dundee to the New York state athletic commis sion today,' but was given little encouragement. The welterweight champion is under suspension here as a result of charges brought against him in California for failure to go through with a title match against Hudkins in Los Angeles. . Jack Sharkey posted a $5,000 check with the commission to quarantee appearance for his match with Johnny Risko here March 12. Jack Dclaney and Tom Heeney already have posted sim ilar forfeits for the first half of the heavyweight eliminations finals on March 1. , Notice that indefinite suspen sion would be plastered on Madi son Square Garden itself if imme diate action was not taken to stop smoking during bouts, brought a promise of a special "smoke" squad employed by the garden to carry yout the commission ruling. After one warning, offenders in the future will be ejected and their admission fee returned. The "ejection" total is expected to be high whenever the garden fight cards fail to meet patron's ap proval. WARHOP REPORTS AT BEAVER CAMP - SANTA ANA. CaL, Feb. 21. (AP).

(AP) The galloping Washington high Colonials out-maneuvered Benson for a clean cut 26 to 19 victory on the Washington floor today and retained. the leadership of the champion round of the interschol astic league. A wise strategist on the Colon ial lineup called time out in the last quarter to cut short a threat ening Benson rally after the Me chanics had pruned down the mar gin to one point, 19 to 18. After that spectacular flash as the game was nearing the close. the sharpshooters from the tech nical school relaxed enough to let the Washingtonians loop the bas ket in rapid succession for a safe lead.

Feb. 21. .(Spe cial) Salem high basketeers vrent on another scoring carousal here tonight and when the timers call ed a halt the score keepers an nounced that the score probably was 50 to 20 in Salem's favor but the books varied. Anyway Coach Anderson's men went through the Albany defense for a -decisive vic tory. Beechler, Salem's big center. was the ace when it came to loop ing in baskets. His one hand flips were wonders, and he rolled up 22 points for high honors. At times the play was ragged, but on the whole it was speed. Sa lem's fast charging offense worked particularly good in the second half. Summary: Salem (60) Duffy (14) .... Lyons (10) ..... Beechler (22) Ecker (2).... R. Kelly G Kafonry S DAYTO.VA BEACH Fla.

PORTLAND. Feb. SI. (AP). For the second time within two months the Portland boxing com mission today called off one of its scheduled fight cards at the armory with so little adTance warning that word of the post oonement barely made the late editions of afternoon papers. At 2 o'clock the word suddenly came from boxing" commission headquarters that the Herman Auerbach-Georgie Dixon fight, and the whole supporting card had been put off for one week. The reason for the commis sion's action was the illness of Herman Auerbach. He caught a "flu" cold in training and there was danger of pneumonia if he fought. He was examined by Dr. R. L. Sabin, member of the com mission, who postlvely forbade him to fight.
