    TENDLER-DUNDEE TOMORROW BRINGING BIG CROWDS; ROLLER VS. DRAAK WEDNESDAY
I Roller Will Put Up Hard Battle
Against Draak Next Tuesday Night
So better card tor the return of
Ahe heavyweight wrestlers ot Harris-
Jfcirg could have been arranged than
The one that will take place at the
Chestnut Street Auditorium next
Tuesday night. May 20, when Dr.
B. F. Holler, the famous physician
■wrestler, meets Tom Draak, the
champion of Belgium and Holland.
The match will go to a positive fln- :
ish two falls out of three. Draak, !
while a newcomer in Harrisburg, is
known to many of the fans who have
followed the records of the leading
grapplers. Draak has through hard
work attained a position in the
wrestling world which places him
among the most popular grapplers.
Draak is more than anxious to
gain a win over Roller. In the New
York tournament staged at the Lex- I
ington theater, Draak and Roller
were matched in the finals. The I
match went the time limit of two j
hours without either of tho men
gaining a fall, sport critics who wit
nessed the match declared it to be
the greatest bout of the tournament.
3t would be almost impossible to
get two men more evenly matched.

FRIDAY EVENING, HXKRISBmFtG MAY 16, 1919.
Draak, who tips the scales at 218
pounds, will have little if any ad
vantage over the clever physician in
weight. Realizing that in Roller he
will stack up against a man who
knows every angle of the mat game,
Draak, is expected to play a waiting
game and hold Roller off as long as
possible before trying to work his
; famous scissors hold.
. Roller's appearance here a short
time ago left no doubt in the minds
of the fans as to the caliber of
wrestler that the "Doc" really is,
terming Roller, tho wrestler with a
thousand holds would probably come
nearer to the solution than anything
that could be applied to Roller's
wrestling. *
Tuesday's program will start with
I some good preliminary bouts and
J the main go will be started at 8.30
j sharp. Tickets will be placed on
| sale this morning at the Schenk and
Tittle sporting goods' Store and at
Harry's cigar store. Ladies are espe
cially invited to attend this bout
which will be under the management
of promoter Baumann, who staged
the Lewis-Roller match.

Dauphin-Perry Opening
Inactive for one year because of
war conditions, the Dauphin-Perry
League will open Its fourth league
season to-morrow afternoon wltti
four instead of six teams represented.
Halifax and Dauphin, represented in
fcrmer seasons, have found it im
possible to place teams in the cir
cuit this year.
Open arrangements in the several
towns with opening dates are not
extensive, but favorable weather to
morrow will find large crowds in
attendance. Both games And two old
rivals pitted against each other and
big crowds will be carried by visit
ing teams. With practically no base
ball in either of the four towns last
year, interest Is running high.
"Tell Marysvllie we have a sur
prise for them," John E. Eby, presi
dent of the Newport Association said
last night. Newport's line-up is un
certain, but a warm battle is assured.
The pitching selection will likely be
made from Guttshall. F. Manning and
Rush. Kerns, a Newport lad, will
likely do the receiving. The outfield
presents a stone wall appearance and
the infleld promises to hold up Its
duties.
Harry Biever, veteran hurler of
many frays. including frays In
which he was on the mound for the
old Halifax team of the league, will
be on the mound for Marysvllie.
Biever served some years in the old
Trl-State League, but still has much
cunning remaining In his trusty
right arm. Earl Kllllnger, catcher
for the Rosewood team of the Alli
son Hill League, Harrlsburg, will
do the receiving. He was signed up
for /mmediate service by the Marys
viyo management last week when
/ A
| it, as the late Theodore Roosevelt
I said, "clean as a hound's tooth,"
opines:
"So far as the writer's judgment
goes, the result of the bout will
hinge on physical condition. If Wil
lard trains faithfully, gets a ridge of
muscles across his stomach, is able
to properly time his blows and gets
his straight left and right hand up
percut working in unison, Dempsey
has one tough job ahead of him. On
the other hand, if the present world's
champion relaxes in his training and
discovers at his age that he lacks the
recuperative powers which he pos
sessed in 1915 when he dethroned
Johnson, his mid-section will be a
target for tho young challenger. It
matters not how tall they are or how
much they scale, a succession of wal
lops in the solar plexus will bring
the biggest down to the size of an
ordinary man. And it is not likely
Willard will prove any exception.
Yes, physical condition is going to
play a most important part -in the
coming ring battle. The writer nor
is any living man in a position to-day
to emphatically say which man will j
win. When the men get into the |
rigors of training they can be com
pared in an intelligent manner with
out any guess work.
Albert Hippensteel, who had been
expected to do the catching, was sent
to the Hospital for an operation for
Appendicitis. All of the teams have
agreed to his playing with Marys
ville to-morrow.
Herman, Rutter and Moore, three
of the crack Infleld of past seasons,
will be on first, third and short.
"Monk" Gerdes, of Harrisburg Inde
pendent basketball fame, will cover
the keystone sack. Stees, Llghtner I
and Ellenberger will be the outfleld.
"Dick" Nebinger, former Boston
Red Sox player, will officiate at the
contest. President Knauss has an
nounced.
Millersburg promises a good chase
to Duncannon in the contest In the
Perry county town. "Bud" Frye has
gathered a formidable array of play
ers from his borough, which has
been considerably strengthened by
the addition of "Dick." Salada, pitch
er, and Meehan. shortstop, nonresi
dent players. Salada will hurl to
morrow and "Bud" Fry, one of the
most capable catchers and clubbers
in this vicinity, will catch.
Duncannon's pitching choice is un
certain. "Buck" Ramsey, veteran
Trl-State hurler, will be on the
mound. E. Walts, Gaverich, or Ros
boro may be selected, however. "Os"
Waltz will catch. "Bobby" Clark,
who received a tryout with the Read
ing Internationals, will cover the
Initial sack. Preparations at Dun
cannon provide for the season to be
opened by Burgess F. E. Cook, -who
will toss out the first ball.
D. C. Hawley will umpire the Dun
cannon-Millersburg contest. "Clint"
White, basketball referre. Is carried
as third umpire.
