SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1921 Che Casper Daily Cribune PAGE SEVEN RIGID SILENCE’ MAINTAINED ON IRISH-BRITISH MEETINGS TAYLOR MATCHED GREAT BOUTS LATE IN SUMMER FOR THREE ‘Wyoming Giant to Tackle Pesek, Stecher and Stan Zbyszko in Close Succession Beginning August 15; Hopes to Grab Title ‘ Three big matches, all of championship caliber, two of| everything depended upon the Statement of Sir James Craig Screens Doings of Conference; Warfare to Be Renewed if Peace Efforts Fail LONDON, July 16.—(By The Associated Press.) —What is happening behind the scenes in the consultations of the Irish parties preliminary to the renewal of the conversations between Eamonn De Valera and Premier Lloyd George on Monday is screened by what Sir James Craig, the Ulster) premier, termed this morning “‘a rigid silence.” Sir James used this phrase in ex- plaining to interviews his belief that way which will be staged in Casper are in sight for Jack Taylor, | ‘"* qestion was*handied heavyweight wrestling champion of the mountain region, ac- cording to announcements made today On August 15 Taylor will meet Jack Pesek in Casper, on he will tackle Joe Stecher, former champion, and Labor d at the Wyoming state fair at Dougla he will go up against the peer of a wrestlers, Stanislaus Zbyszko. McLeod says he is getting the Wyo-| ming giant,ready to win the champion- ship and expects Taylor to return} from his ranch. stronger and in bette shape than ever. @n the upstate ranch he has the benefit of training with Clarence Eklund. When he re: turned here from Greeley where he met Terro Miyaka on July 4, Taylor tipped the scales at 242 pounds with-| out an ounce of fat and he is gaining weight steadily at the most strenuous exercise. The match with John Pesek on August 15 will be one of the best ever staged in Casper. Pesek has a record of one win over Joe Stecher whom he wore down in a battle at Omaha. | Pesek is also one of the most aggres-| sive men in the mat game. f Stecher, it is admitted, will be the greatest drawing card ever baoked with Taylor in Casper and prospects are {70d that the local champion will be able to down him. If he continues to gain in Taylor will be the heaviest\wrestier in WW COLLECT weight | by George McLeod. INTO TREASUR “The slightest interpretation,” indiscretion or mis- he said, “may easily cause incalculable harm. What will best ajd the attainment of peace is for every one concerned to withhold | comment outside of off tions.” Of the prificipals in the confer ences, Lloyd George is spending the weekend in his country home at Chequers Court, where members of the cabinet probably will be called. Mr. De Valera and his colleagues ‘went this aftetnoon to view the ex-) hibition here of Sir John Lavery’s paintings, which include pictures of the trial of Sir Roger Casement and of the funeral procession in London of Lord Mayor MacSwiney of Cork and @ portrait of Archbishop Mannix of Australia.

Thus in one instance a promi- |nent merchant in one of our larger ities owned and operated two stores. For three years straight he omitted ntirely from his returns the income of one of the stores. ?
