Wrestlers in Battle Royal on Armory Card Tonight TO FIGHT IT OUT Preliminary Pits Curly Woods and Joe Gardenier First Gong at 8:45 to Permit Full Attendance The battle of Copenhagen, In whten It la alleged "10,000 Swedes ran through the weeds," la apt to be proven a tame affair tonight when Al Karaalck, Ruaalan Lion; Pete Bel cattro, Junior-heavyweight champ 01 the coaat: "Sad" Sam Lathers, rubber-legged Texan; Johnny Boos, bad man of the ring, and Joe Hubaa. former college grid atar, wend their way between the manllaa at the Armory and atari aeaault-and-battery proceedings against one another. Mack Llllard, acting In a league of nations capacity, has tried to conciliate the men at least to the point that they don't murder eacn other, but his action receiving lit tle attention, a war board of two referees, Bay triable and Bill Morgan, haa been appointed to act as me dlatora In the ring. Judging from advance sale of pasteboards, a largo following from the camp of each gladiator will gather on the hills surrounding the battlefields to watch the maneuvers. Four Gang on Fifth. At battle-royals, It I the custom for four of the combatants to aad dle themselves on the neck of the fifth and dispose of him, post-haste Then when the odds are even, each selects an opponent, and tries to pull a leg off him with which to batter his other foea. This la painful process, and explains why there are no more battle royals in the land than there are. It Is un usual for heavyweight wrestlers to submit to such treatment, and they generally objeot atrenuously to hav ing a leg pulled out by the root and retaliate In kind. It la doubtful whether the fight ers themselves get a worse beating than do the referee, who are gener ally the focal point of several skir mishes, the battler holding onto the "Judge" with one hand, and -poking hla opponent Joyously In the noae over the ref'a shoulder. Dog fights are tame atuff beside this. Kicking In the fact, biting, hair pulling and heaving of rasslers over the ropes, ao thrilling In two-man fight, are so common In ths battle royal as to receive but scant notice, and It 1 only the broken bone that gain much Interest. Delay Opening. Because of Important business house openings down town, Promoter Llllard ha announced that the flrat battle, featuring Curley Wooda of Medford and Joe Oardonler of Ta coma, will start at 8:46. 1A minutes late. Under that arrangement, the battle royal will not poaslbly atart until a o'clock and very possibly later, giving every one a chance to visit Mann's new store end the Tog gery before coming to the fight. Llllard stated today that ticket for the affair are going faater than for any other fight ever held In this olty, this being the first battle royal ever held here. In case the wrestlers dont pursusde themselves that the work 1 too dangerous, more battle royals will be held In the future, he said. Pre-flght sentiment seems divided as to which raasler will bs the vic tim of the Initial attempt to reduce the odds by one man, v.lttr' Johnny 6oo and Pete Belcastro both having large followlngs. Boos' popularity along thla line la due to hla meanle tactic, he having developed Into a fire-eater after atartlng his career here aa a falr-halred boy. In his last few matches he haa resorted to kick ing, biting and thumplngd In the Host at Party ""Sri... ';' a ma'- v y ' ; . Promoter Mack Llllard will play boat at a "coming-out" party at the armory tonight when five of hla wrestler "guests" will engage in battle royal. The gucits are expected to be coming out through the ropea one by one, soon after the gong sounds. head, to boost hla chances of being "ganged." ' The Belcastro fans believe that attention la due Pete, because of hla longer ranking In the meanle field, he having been a bad boy in thla district for years, although turn ing clean In hla last several bouts. SAD SI TO GIVE. BELCASTRO BREAK "Sad" Sam tethers, who seems madder than sad today, promised that In hla personal brudge battle against Pete Belcastro. one thing that he refuses to do Is to take advantage of the battle-royal melee to kick the sawdust out of Belcastro tonight. That la not hla method, he declared, but admitted that If & eve astro works himself Into an advantageous spot for a resounding kick In the teeth, he ts not the man to overlook the opportunity. All that he means Is that he wont "lay" for Pete tonight. But what he will do, he aaya, la meet Belcastro's weight limit of 300 pound on any day that Promoter Llllard sees fit to give him the chance. Lat week Pete dumped Bam, and Sam didn't like It. Now Pete won't meet him again, with Pete's newly-won Junior heavy belt aa the stake, unless Sam meets a lot of exorbitant regulations. "I'll atrip under 900 at a o'clock the afternoon of the fight," Sam aatd. The tall Texan, who will be seen In the batle royal tonight, admired that In three years of professional boxing he had been tn aeveral such fights, but never before aa raasler.

Intentions Clear There Is no doubt about the Inten tions of Italy. Mussolini has made these Intentions abundantly clear. He has for all practical purposes already declared war. He has been massing troops on the border of Ethiopia for months, only watting for suitable climatic condi tions to launch his attack. He haa re peatedly stated that league or no league he will persist In his determ ination. One certain outcome of this war will be tounlte the colored peoples of the world. Grave unrest In all the colonial possessions of the European powers will break out. This will cre ate a situation, the outcome of which Is Incalculable. In the face of such dangers the council of the League ol Nations has shown an Impotence which is appal ing. Its members, particularly Great Britain and Prance, have been afraid to take action. Their dilatory meth ods have been an encouragement to Mussolini, who has treated them with contempt. These dilatory methods have served Mussolini's purpose as It has given him time to make hla preparations for war. If the league council had de nounced these war preparations as an act of war and enforced the terms of the covenant, then the situation might have betn saved. Nothing But Talk Three powers are now meeting in Paris to talk. It la certain they will do nothing but talk. They will frame a meaningless formula and leave it at that. Mussolini will go on with his war preparations and when autumn comes will make his attack and laugh at the weak-spirited council of the league. The European powers are. In fact, by their cowardice' accessories to Mussolini's actions. They are prevent ing military equipment from tying sent to Ethiopia and this will leave that country practically helpless against the powerful equipment of the Italian armies. These powers are leaving Ethiopia to be Dutchered to make a Roman holiday. No concession which now could be made to Mussolini short of complete conquest of Ethiopia would satisfy him. That aim he has made tragically clear. . But Mussolini's aim and ambition will not stop short with the conquest of Ethopla. If he Is successful In tiis enterprise, his next move will be to absorb Austria. That attempt will bring Germany Into the war and as European nations are now bound to gether with numerable pacta and treaties a general European war would he Inevitable, Fifth $1.40 No. 176-B Pint - .90 No. 176-0 SCREEN DOORS WINDOW , SCREENS MEDFORD MADE TROWBRIDGE CABINET WORKS Write The Van Lanillngliiiiii rimany for llliiMrtttrd Krrlpe Booklet, Bedell Ulilj.. l'orllaud, Urriun i ' , .. , ,.
