Stars receive even more. So racking is the game that the average professional goes stale after the age of 30. Prob ably no sport makes so terrific a drain on vitality. The aver age age of the speedy Metropoli tans of Seattle, for Instance, is 23 years. Hookey is the game of youth, demanding all the pep and wild disregard of conse quences that youth alone can contribute. With the coming of the winter season a country-wide revival of wrestling is on and making pretty good progress. The revival start ed with a tournament In New York, then spread to Chicago and Kansas City. There is a chance Frank Got oh can be induced to defend his title. He is the obap all the big fellows are after and he has admitted he is at least Interested in talk of an offer of $30,000 for him to meet Joe Steelier. Steelier is the young Nebraskan taught by Farmer Burns. He has beaten Americus, Charley Cutler and lesser lights. His main claim to fame is a leg scissors hold that may become as famous as the Gotch toe hold. It Is said that when Stecher gets his legs around a man he can squeeze with pressure of about 2,000 pounds, causing his oppo nents to roll over and quit. A wrestler who is attracting new attention in the east is Alex Aherg, a Russian Finn, who has not lost a fall In 10 years. Interest is added to wrestling by a-report that Yussiff Mahmout Is In Paris and plans a trip to America. It was reported Mah mout had been killed in the Bal kans. When here before he was rated next to Gotch in the catch as-oatch-can style. 1 HUNKY SHAW'S SUIT ON TRIAL PORTLAND, Ore., Dec.

Joe Bonds, heavyweight cham pion of the Northwest, won a de cision at Eagles hall last nig'nt over Lou Bo_te, a young glHnt from Deer Lodge, Mont. Bond- won the right fair ly. Of «■...<!".«•, there was the usual <■!• n, 11 of anti- Bonds rooters present who objected to tlie Ml on, hut from (he stand[H>lnt of p«>ints and clevern_a_>, Joe lutd hi* i >|i | h.ii <-iii Ikm lei i a city I > lc>< U. I No AiuhiUou. It was a peculiar fight. Botl'. men "mixed" as much as any body would want them to. Vat there was something lacking from the battle. This "something" was on Bodle'- side of the game. Huge, powerful, quirk, thlH Montana heavyweight appar ently hail hi* mind miles away from the ring in which he was box!ng. He main tained m pleasant little smile, as one would linugine a Si. Bernard dog would grin ut the angry yelpings of a fight-Keeking akye terrier. Bonds Improved. The Tacoman wns better than he had ever been before in & Tacoma ring, yet he was not im proved as much as his friends anticipated. He bored in witn old time aggressl veil ess and used his left tilmost continuously, but outside of those features he showed little improvement Iron.' the scientific standpoint. His ducking and crouch position were clever. Bodie was slow in the first round. In the second he connect ed with Bonds' right swing to the ear several times, together with left uppers. Bodle's oniy blows that counted were straight lefts and rights to the face. Bodle Groggy. In the fourth round Bonds rushed the Montana giant off his feet. He battered him up against the ropes, and for the first time of tlie bout, Bodie looked like he wanted to go borne to mother. Tlie big fellow grew limp and tired of tlie boat. He hung to Bonds until the finisli, and although his grin re turned, he was a beaten man. Two more rounds and Bonds PETER'S IFFLE Chairman Campbell of the Moose lodge announced last night at the* Eagles' enter tainment that the Moose would give a smoker in their hall December 16. Eddie Marino is making the matches. Tex Vernon will be one of the principals. Tough luck for Doc Carl son of South Tacoma. Doc Is one of the greatest little fans you ever saw. And Just before the main event last night one of his patients had the crust to get! worse, and send for him. We'd hate to he the patient In a case like that. Joe Hennessey gat into a little trouble with the poti on the day of his last bout before the Eagles, and George Shanklln helped him by getting him out on ball. Joe showed his gratitude last night by laying down on his fight with Good. Joe's complaint against Arthur Schock was a stall. The Olympla boy never intended to fight. . Bonds has never regained favor with the Tacoma box ing fans since that time that JACK DILLON WINS AGAIN NEW YORK, Dec. B.—Porky Flynn of Boston was beaten l>y Jack Dillon of Indianapolis in their 10-round bout In Brooklyn last night. Both men were on their feet at the finish, but Dil lon hsd a decided advantage. Flynn weighed 193 and Dillon 178. SEAGRAVt IS U. TEAM CAPT. SEATTLE, Dec. B.—At the an annual football banquet here last night, Louis seagrave of Spokane, the junior who did sensational work as guard on this year's 'varsity team, was elected cap tain of next year's team. Elm or Leader was awarded the Flaherty rotating medal as the greatest Inspiration to his teammates dur ing the season. Wednesday, Dee. 8,1915. would have easily slipped over the K. O. Earl Connors "came back" last night. His bout with Charlie David son of Seattle was one of the fastest, most spectacular and in teresting battles seen in a Ta coma rlug. It had the fans on their feet last night, shouting at the topa of their voices. Connors wanted to win becauso of hia showing against Leo llouck last month. And he Vas up against a boy of his o\^p calibre* This Davidson is a "comer." There wssn't ■ moment in those four rounds that the two young sters were not slashing, pound ing. Jabbing at each other. In the fourth Davidson stumbled ai _ fell to his knees. He foolishly Btayed down for the count of seven to get his breath. Had he. hooped up at once, he would have stood a chance for a draw. Big surly Joe Hennessey shov ed his appreciation for Match maker Shanklln's kindness at the last smoker, by refusing to box last night with Sammy Good un less a new referee were substi tuted. Arthur Schock had ref ereed all matches, and there was not a bit of criticism against li"v by the fans. Shanklln told Hennessey to either box under the club's ar rangements or get out. He gave the Olympla man three min utes to be ready to fight and then awarded Good the decision. Shanklln did the proper thiny, and It's a safe bet that Hennen sey will not get another Tacoma match this season. George Ingle of San Francisco and Billy Wright of Seattle put up another speedy match. Wright started Blow, with Ingle hitting' him at will, but as the match progressed the tide turned. Ingle tired, and Wright improved. The match ended with Wright lead ing strong. It was a good draw. The preliminaries were both, good also. Boh Yoern and Kd Hunter boxed to a draw, with Yoern showing a little more real boxing class. Hunter stopped hard blows with his face. Al- Lupo, newsboy, lost a decision to Jaok Hartford. Lupo, although the shorter of the two, was a tough lad and made a game fight. he was criticised in bis bout with Frank Farmer. Last night he received little ap plauße, and the crowd was with Bodie all the time. Bonds is a good drawing card in Tacoma more be cause the crowd wants to see him sent to dreamland, than because they wish him to win. Surgeons are to operate on Joe Tinker's kidney, also his pooketbook. The future smokers in Ta coma will have .o go Borne to Improve on the Eagles' program last night. Some of the old faithfuls at the ringside were Rubs Hall, George Shreeder, Joe McGinnity, Fr.nk Riley, Tom Morris, Judge Linck, Myron Cramer, ('apt. Cor nish, Al Duenwald aad Al Metxger. STAGE FINALS NEXT SUNDAY Thirty-six holes will be played Sunday in the finals of the an nual winter handicap tournament at Lochburn Oolf club. The fln altsts are ready, with the excep tion of one match. Frank Nell and Leo Hartnett have yet to ,ilay their semi final match, the winner to play Ralph Teats Bun day.
