BIG WRESTLING BOUT HELD HERE By Sargun Sprout Arrangements have been made to hold the Miller-Hackenschem match at the Fairyland Tuesday evening, May 27. The principal reason for selecting Anaheim stage this deciding match in that a larger crowd can be taken care of. When Miller and Hack met the last time the Fullerton club room was crowded to suffocation. Many had to stand on chairs and benches which was not comfortable, to say the least. Mike Horwitz of the United Cigar store is at the promoting end. Mike is laying plains for great show. Beside the main event there will be two other matches, if plans work out, that will be well worth the price of admission. Everything is being planned for the comfort of a four house. The mat will be elevated on the stage so that all may be able to see the wrestlers all the time, and any other attraction that will be installed. Hack was a little peeved some of the talk of his being too heavy for Miller. He has promised to make Miller's weight at o'clock of the afternoon of the match. He is to weigh in on scale placed in front of the Fairyland where everyone can see that they is no monkey work. Hack is a straight shooter and wants the public to be satisfied. There is not much difference his and Miller's weight at any time and he has been training lot since their last meeting. Miller is much heavier than he appeared small beside Roy Mee and yet he outweighed Rene several pounds. The way George Sisler is forming is beyond the expectation of his most optimistic friends. He is hitting in his old time form and his fielding is sensational., His great work is inspiring his teammates to greater effort and they are making some real oppositions for the Yanks.

DESCAMPS SORE OVER LONG ODDS CHICAGO, May 19—Early odds favoring Tom Gibbons, the leading seek broker of St. Paul, over Georges Carpentier, the boulevard character, have aroused the iris of Francois Des Campes, manager of Carpentier. During the Frenchman's first public workout since landing, Des Campes took occasion to point out that Gibbons had been unable to knock out Battling Levinsky, who fell before Carpentier. "Look what Harry Greb did to him in New York," Des Campes offered in equivalent French. Other good but small men, according to the mercurial manager, who have been stumbling blocks to Gibbons, were Chuck Wiggins, Bob Moha and Boy McCormick. "Then, why," with a shrug that brought his shoulders to a level of his ears, "should Tommy be the favorite?" Over in Gibbons' gold coast camp, Tom and his manager, Eddie Kane, seemed able to laugh this off without trouble. The odds, quoting Gibbons at 5 and 7 to 5, remained unchanged.
