Wrestlers in Battle Royal on Armory Card Tonight

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

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.

WORLD WAR PERIL
SEEN BY SNOWDEN
IN ITALH STAND
(Continued from Page one.)
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
