Wrestlers are forbidden to tell secret se-cret hol'ls of other wrestlers, or say they can tiirow each other e ery ten minutes. min-utes. :!. When working in between matches wn-stler.s will not expect to take all the reeelpu. The promo; er ha a rent to pay, !a undry hills to meet, telegrams to pay ftr, and fifth-rate pugs to feed who have appetites that would make a lumberjack blush. 4. Loud and boisterous talk, day dreaming, bragging, jealousy, letter writing", writ-ing", smoking, pests, listeners trying' to get an ear full, walking on mat, punching punch-ing bag when promoter Is talking to a champion, are all strictly forbidden. 5. KiUerpristng would-be managers and promoters who want the Boise club to put on their champions will kindly lay down $200 fur the club permit and then put on their own contest. Don't ask the promoter pro-moter to lose. He knows what will draw here, 6. Wrestlers who tell how popular they a re In certain burgs and the big houses they a 1 ways draw, and the big guaran-. toes they get, and how the commercial chilis of those cities are just aching to have them wrest le there, w ill please go there at once, for we don't know how good they are.- 7. Ctia inpiony are allowed two towels 1 a. day when training for a match; when hanging around, one tmvel a day. Good second ra lers, one low el a day when , train! ng fur a match; when hanging around they will he charged for towel service. Third raters will be charged for tow els at all times, whether they are ' matched or not. Fourth and fifth raters i will use champions and second raters' i ! towels second-hand. I'.roken-down wres- ! tiers and pugs who shoot the piace full ' I of poison gas telling how good thev used i : to be wl'l not undress at ail, and keep out of ; rivate room, as they annov the champion who is training. Referees, timekeepers, judges and other necessary evils will be charged laundry rates for towels at all times, and wiil please undress un-dress in the alley when tho booths are full and casli customers are working out. S. When a chamoion is speaking, third, fourth and fifth rates will please remain re-main silent, put on the muscle, hold the tongue and show their breeding; for the champion and the promoter may be talking talk-ing about the size of tiie next house, and champions a re very fussy. f langers-on will agree with all a champion has to say. No one will be allowed to take a shower bath when champion is stripped. If second rater happens to be :n shower he will say, "Please excuse me," and continue, if there is another shower avail-aide; avail-aide; otherwise, he will say, "1 am finished," fin-ished," and retire immediately. Third, fourth and fifth raters wiil not enter shower while champion is in gym, whether he be stripped or in street clothes. They will sth k around ready to assist in rub-bi rub-bi ng, dust in g champion's clot lies, polishing polish-ing his walking stick and agreeing with all he has to say. When he tells you about Gamma or the Swiss, tell him he has nothing to fear, for he is a better man than Goteh. 9. Good first raters will not explode in ' presence of champions in this gym and ask for return dates. They had better go and get a reputation, and tiirow some good man three times in an hour. This is a first -class club. The promoter lias risen from tiie ground up in the wrestling game, being lightweight cha mpion of the world, but always meeting middle wet guts 11 nd third-rate heavies. So do not peddle any noise around the gym a nd think you are getting away with it. Third and fourth raters need not expect the promoter to work out with them. H e is a pretty busy man these days and has to use his head for something else hhan a punching punch-ing bang for Lewis headlocks and Steelier scissors. 10. Mooch ers and free pass pinks will have to show the promoter from now on, and they wiil have to get an entirely new line to pass the old gate. The old ones are mouldy and worn out.
