Stecher has agreed to throw George Nelson, Mike Yokel and John Kilonia In two hours. Nelson and Stecher have met and the Idaho boy about held his own with the Nebraska wonder. Promoter Crabbe has promised Nelson should he keep Stecher from pinning his shoulders to the mat for one hour he will give him a finish match with Stecher in Salt Lake during the next month. For six rnonths Stecher's praises as a future ohampion have been sung from coast to coast. New York skeptics asked to be shown, whereupon the farmer boy, the western wonder, displayed his wares In such a creditable fashion that he convinced in Manhattan town that he is everyone one of tho greatest grapplers since the palmy days of Frank Gotch. Stecher went to New York his bout with Mort Henderson, for "the masked marvel," touted as a whirlwind on the mat. Gotham didn't believe it, but does now. The way in which Stecher toyed with "the masked marvel" was a revelation to the game. F"ive years ago Joe Stecher became Interested in the game while M. C. A. in the Y. wrestling attendingNeb. When the farmer boy Fremont, tc Dodge City he continued to returned grapple in the idle moments. No one told him anything about the tricks in. the game. Whenever he found wrestling the time he would attend everv wrestling- match within 100 miles of the old homestead. He would wstrh the tricks "uncovered" by the mat crafts of the game and then go homo and try them on his brother. Out in that little far away town of Nebraska they idolize Joe and well should. Not oniv has Joe risen they to the heights that should make Dodge-Citfeel proud that it produced him, some of his home town but Joe made chums very wealthy. Aocordinp to Edward D. Smith, the veteran fooled writer, he of even theChicago sportwise heads the wrestlinpr game around the Windv City. When Joe won with ease all of his early matches, the town of Dodgo Issued a defi to tho world. That was the summons for the gamblers. They sent a few ringers from Chicago to town. The Dodge folks Stecher's home grabbed at the bait. Each one of the wonders returned with their feathers turned down. "He may be good, but he's not as good as Stecher," is the slogan displayed on the billboards around the little village now. Stecher, who is a Bohemian by par200 entage, is six feet tall, weighs depounds, and hs wonderful physical Stecher's and arms velopment. are impressive, almost legs to the point of His arms are long and being uncanny. sinewy, and his legs show physical development beyond anything- seen on the mat during the past decade. Stecher has the most powerful pair of leers ever owned by any wrestler, and it's because of this that he has largely been so successful. - The scissors hold, as. long on regarded one of the most effective the mat, has been perfected to the highest by Joe. He is as fast as a streak point of lightning on the mat and when once he secures the scissors hold it Is only a matter of neconds before he pins his to the mat.
