    DR. ROLLER CRACKS A RIB IN DEFEAT BY DRAAK; ROSEWOOD AND ENGINEERS-FIREMEN WIN
Dr. Roller Cracks a Rib
in Tom Draak Defeat
It was a battling. rattling wrest
ling match that Promoter Max Bau
jnan presented at Chestnut Street
Auditorium last night where the
Netherlands-Bolgian champion. Tom
Draak, got the bettor of the eminent
physician, Dr. B. F. Roller, who may
have done his last bit of grappling,
although celebrities such as he iind
it hard to quit public life. The oc
casion was marked by a number of
odd features, soma of them >• 'l'tio
unpleasant, like the hissing i U>o
big fellow, Tom Draak, who was al
together within the wrestling rulea
when he fastened upon the Doctor
an insidious crotch and head chan
cery hold, picked him up literally
and {ossed him down, The faat was
that Draak, much younger than Roll
er, was in the very pink of condition*
while the bravo physician suffered a
lanced foot inflicted the last time
he wrestled here, It is iikely that
Roller will not appear again for a
long time, although in the dressing
room after the fray he promised to
meet Draak if he wanted another PC".
The big auditorium had much the
appearance of a surgical clinio in
session, for nearly a score of prom
inent physicians were at the ring
side long before the wrestling start
ed, all greeting Dr, Roller with great
enthusiasm. The medical men noted
included Dr, Douglas, Dr, llowman.
Dr. Parks, Dr, Gulp, Dr, Green and
Dr. Ridgway, of the State Hospital;
Dr. Nissley, of Hummelstown, Dr.
Galen Hayne, dentist; Dr, A. 3. Rita
man, and others, Just beforo the big
match started. Dr, Roller cast a
glance of warm recognition at the
arrival of Col, Edward Martin, head
of the State Department of Health,
who was a surgeon at tho University

WEDNESDAY EVENING
of Pennsylvania and taught Dr, Roller
the first rudiments of the profession
'.* r lth Col. Martin was his assistant
commissioner, Major McLatn.
It took proclsoly 23 minutes and
IS seconds to finish the first bout,
which was fast and furious, Dr, Rol
ler, concentrating all his skill In
escaping Draak's hcadlock and Draak
showing superhuman strength, en
during pain that must havo been
excruciatlnf while Roller for nearly
four minutes twisted his ankle. Tears
of pain clotted Draak's rugged coun
tenance and slowly. painfully he
succumbed, and to save his bone
from cracking, he finally tapped on
the padded mat, signifying that he
gave up.
The second bout Is the one which
ended with a wild demonstration by
the fans who were In great majority,
rooting for tho physician, who is giv
en credit for keeping the game clean.
On this score, however, spectators
should be fair. Draak, a Hollander
by birth, is in no wise shady in his
methods. lie has never had a blur
on his performance, and he was very
keen to win last night, for he felt
certain he could handle the older
man. What happened was that In
the very fast going the men pushed
nto the ropes. They had agreed that
in this case, both were to get up and
he standing, free hand and leg.
J here is nothing in the rules about
returning to tho exact center of the
stage. "Free, hand and leg" they
were, and Draak simply took the ad
vantage of a man. still very eager
to win and teeming with energy. He
gave the older man no time to think,
but fastened on with magic quick
ness the crotch and head hold and
threw Dr. Roller so heavily that a
rib on his left side, according to Dr.
Harry. Douglass, was fractured.
After the battle Roller and Draak
met In the dressing room and neither
showed bitterness; each maintained
that in another battle he could win.
Tho fact is, that Draak has vastly
improved his skill and strength and
Referee Baumann was entirely right
In calling for Roller to go on, de
spite a broken rib, as the promoter
had advertised that the falls would
he to finish, two out of three. Dr.
Roller, before he was taken to the
Harris burg Hospital by Dr. Doug
repcated that Baumann was the
lass'' an da delegation of physicians,
wrestling referee in the business to
sqtiarest and wisest promoter and
day. The decision rightly goes to
Draak. and tlie spectators themselves
were responsible for Dr. Roller not
wrestling to tho finish. They voted
to excuse him.
Tho entertainment opened with a
preliminary between "Ed" Fair and
Julius Karasky, two Tech wrestlers.
Fair won one fall in 4 minutes 35
seconds on a hody scissors, and bo
fore another fall could bo gained by
either boy tho ten-minute time limit
was up.
In the second preliminary Carl
Deck, the Tech star, dropped John
Konoz, Harrisburg, for the first fall
in I minute 15 seconds and for the
second fall in 38 seconds.

To-night—Galahad vs. St. Mary's.
! Umpire—C. A. Runk.
I Last night's result—Rosewood, 6 ;
Galahad, 5.
Rosewood and Galahad crowded a
mixture of good and bad baseball into
seven innings of play at the Allison Hill
contest last evening that lcept the fans
heated up at all times, and when the
contest was finally decided Rosewood
was leading by a run. Score, 6 to 5.
Some of the most remarkable stunts
! were pulled off at inters'als. With two
| men on base in the last inning and two
| out. with Klerner at bat. Eph lifted a
! Texas leaguer back of third. "Snaps"
I Emanuel raced out to left field with
his back to home plate and by some
1 remarkable sprinting managed to clutch
1 the ball for the close of the game. Had
the Tech athlete muffed the fly it would
have meant victory for Galahad.
Lutz. the Galahad catcher gave the
best exhibition of pegging to second,
that has been seen on the Hill in many
a day. Five times he made perfect
throws to second to catch runners try
ing to steal. He was the life of the
Galahad crowd.
"Chiefv" Bender also made a one
hand stab of a fly to left field and
1 was compelled to doff his top-piece be
cause of the ovation given him. Lyme
was also in the limelight because of a
rolling catch he made during the
nrogress of the contest. A fly hall was
driven to deep left. Jurt as he was
setting himself to catch the ball his
feet slipped from under him and as
he rolled on the grass he threw up his
"dukes" and handcuffed the pill.
On 'the Other band there were quite
few mlsplays in the contest, but these
lave the opposers a chance to score

I Aspirants for basketball cham

i all they look for next fall. It is yet
| too early to talk about those indoor
! sports, but none too soon for those
j interested in sports at the Pennsyl
j vania Railroad Young Men's Chris
i tian Association. "Preparedness" is
| the slogan at the Railroad "Y," and
: they have have started something.
Preliminary plans are already un
| der way for the organization of
: basketball and bowling teams. There
will bo no offers for contests turned
j down once theso sports are under-
I way, except there be a scarcity of
! open dates.
To Meet All Comers
j The Railroad "Y" sport backers
i have alcady served notice that when
Mho cage teams are ready and the
I bowlers have stiffened up for the
i fall and winter work all comers will
bo met.
It is not the intention to confine
| Iho contests to railroad organiza
! tions only. Schedules will be ar
! ranged to meet independent teams.
! It is the purpose to keep the stars
j with th'e "Y" organization.
While there will be no bar to the
' players lining up with other organ-
I izations, It is not likely there will
I be enough open dates to permit it.

they arc going after further honors.
