place at an angle at which it was only possible tor those who were In the extreme back portion of the house see at all action in the mat ter bespoke very plainly of how he regarded the verdict He never uttered a semblance of protest iSome will say that this was noth ing more or less than a tine display of sportsmanship but it Is hardly probable that any professional ath lete that Is wrestling for the finan cial return the game brings would submit calmly to what he thought was an unjust verdict when a win or even a draw meant so much in every way to him Those seated at the ringside tn the immediate vicinity in which the tall look place uphold the conten tion ot the referee that shoulder blade touched the mat only for an Instant and when the official was giving tbe customary slaps his

participants bad displayed a most acceptable brand ot grappling with honors about even The Pole seemed to have a slight advantage In that he wiggled out of seemingly dead ly holds with considerable more ease and finesse than did his op ponent under similar conditions Several times during the first hour a fall seemed imminent but by superhuman effort on the part of the under dog the Impending dis aster was averted to the intense de light of the large crowd Cannot Use avorite Hold enormous girth pre vented Ordeman from using his fav orite body holds Someone In the audience suggested that If he ap plied the he would be successful The famous toe hold so much resorted to by Cham pion Gotch and which experts say Ordeman has down better than any living wrestler outside ot the mas ter himself also availed him noth ing in last match due to the fact that the Pole wears no footwear of any sort and when he perspires It is next to Impossible to secure any purchase with which to apply the hold The Pole was much the fresher or the two following the long siege that attended the first fall and left the ring barely puffing Experts marveled at his wonderful endu rance It was plain to everyone that the second fall would only be a matter of not more than a half hour at the outside as Ordeman was visibly In when he left the circle following his first fall He was on the defensive the greater part of the 12 minutes that was necessitated to secure the second pinning In the semi final Gene Lawrence of Detroit threw Charles luff of Windsor in straight falls law fence was the laggressor throughout and although his opponent out weighed him at least 20 pounds ho threw him with comparative ease He claims the only reason he lock nine minutes to secure said falls was because he was
