Glant Bow KANSAS CITY, March %—Frank Gotch of Towa, champlon of the world, last night retained his title by defeating Raoul De | Rouen of France In straight falls. The winning fall was won with Gotch's famous toe held. The Frenchman allowed his shoulders to be put to the mat aimost with- out an effort. De Rouen was repeatedly cheered for his gameness. The champion was never in serious trouble, and It soon became evident that his ultimate victory was only a matter of time. Gotch really won the bout in the first fall, when he 8o weakened his op ponerit with the tot held that De Rouen did not care to repeat the experlence in the second fall. The time of the falls was 34:45 and 13 minutes flat, respectively. Big Crowd Sees Match. One of the biggest crowds that ever wit- nessed such an event in this country was present. W. D. Scoville, manager of the Missouri Athletic club, which put up the $5,000 purse for the match, estimated the attendance at over 10,000, Of this number 2,600 were from out-of-town points, includ- ing Chicago, St. Louls and Denver. The winner's end of the purse was $5,000. Both contestants” were In excellent condition. Gotch, who welghs 212 pounds, was a 19 to 9 fave though De Rouen was forty- nine pounds heavier. As they cntered the arena, the French- man appeared nervous. The gong sounded | at 9:0. De Rouen was the aggressor, while Gotch seemed to take it easy, They went tp the mat at 9:37, Gotch throwing De Rouen with a leg hold. De Rouen seomed to have all he could do to detend himseif. Gotch trled for the toe hold. De Rouen several times tried to strike Gotch in the face with his elbow. In the struggle both men got to their feet. Gotch In a few ! minutes again secured a leg hold on his opponent and brought him to the mat. Gotch secured @ toe hold on the French- man, whose face showed extreme agony. He struck Gotch feebly with his elbow, but soon lay still with his chest heaving. {Then he slowly rolled over, but finally broke the hold by bridging and rolling | clear over. Frenchman om the Defensive. Gotch then secured a bar lock and only supreme effort saved the Frenchman, who made no effort to take the offensive. Referee Dave Porteous brought the men to the center of the ring. After a few minutes' sparring, Gotch secured a ham- merlock. De Rouen bowed again and broke it. The Frenchman regained his feet und Gotch pushed him backward over the ropes. Gotch for the third time threw De Rouen | with a leg hold and in a moment secured & full Nelson and put his shoulders to the mat in 3:45. ‘When the men re-entered the ring for the second time the Frenchman advanced as at first, but with extreme caution. Atter elght minutes' sparring, Gotch re- peated his former feat of catching De Rouen's leg, and they went to the mat, Gotch uppermost. Twice the men rolled through the ropes and were brought back. Finally Gotch felt the toe of his opponent cautlously, smiled, gave It a quick twist and De IRouen's face became distorted with | pain. A moment later Gotch was pro- claimed the victor. There were two preliminaries of two falls | each. Tommy Mowatt of Chicago and | “Dago Kid" of Kansas City each won a | fall, the last one going to Mowatt. Charlie ! Blaker of Table Rock, Neb., won two falls from Nick Snider of Kansas City. ite, DEFEATS cmm; MORNINGSTAR New York Billiardist Wins Even Game by Decisive Score. | STANDING OF THB PLAYERS | Played.

You never knew Omaha to have a team which was not up In the running all the time, especially since Pa Rourke has been at the helm, and _this year will be no exception. “We realizo that we will have to do some hustling to fill the places made vacant by Autrey, Austin and Ragan, but Pa has what looks like a fine bunch of material lined up. While 1 have seen but a few of the new men |ana from what the other players and Rourke tell me that we have some crack-a- Jacks. “Papa Bill is not going to take any chances, however, and last night wired a hot proposition for two players whom recommended in California, and If we can get these 1 know we will have a great team right at the start. These are a pitcher and a first baseman. That will glve us a fine line of material from which to choose a team." Captain Franck came to Omaha from Oak- . via Los Angeles, where he picked up LeBrand and brought him with him. He said also that Rourke had a couple of trades in sight which would tend materlally to strengthen the Omaha team If they were carried out. The captain says he has not touched a base bull since the last game he played with the Omaha team at Wichita last fall and is in fine condition. He made the mis- take of playing winter ball a year ago and | was not In very good shape when he re- ported last spring and had hard work get- ting in condition at all. Win 30 to 20 at A.

After five years of “trial marriage” a young San Francisco couple have declded that the experiment Is a fallure. Their con- tract having expired, the two people feel themselves free to choose other mates and try again. Presumably, each of them will keep on trying until a satisfactory mate is found—or until they grow weary of the sport and blighting old age cuts short their tancy's dalliance. This world would be a fine place to live in if all people were free to repudiate a contract at thelr pleasure. Marriage would cease to be a matter of any moment, and the bringing of children into the world would belong among the trivial incidents of life. In business, when a man tired of his contract or found that what he had contracted to do was no longer pleasing to his whim, he would simply throw his contract into the waste basket and tell the other fellow to go to the deuce. It would work that way for a while; then, after a little while, there would be ne business and no society; simply choas and anarchy. Sald the man-party to this casily broken contract: ““We are going to separate because we find our liberty has been too greatly re- stricted. I have been taking my wife everywhere 1 go, and I don’t propose to have to do it any more. She feels the same way about her enforced deference to my wishes in many respects. We have given our contract a falr trial and have | decided to qui! They may have given their contract a indeed; but if they are under [ the impression they gave marriage a fair trial they are wrong. Theirs was never | & marriage. The Baxon terms fit to it are not pretty the printed Marriage must begin In love and and the desire for inseparabllity. | These things are permanent. The cere- mony only announces thelr existence to society and fixes upon those who would enjoy them the responsibilities they en- | gender. One can enjoy nothing without | assuming the responsibllity It entalls. Peo ple who balk at this ceremony, which in- forms the world of their love and trust in each other, do not possess enough of these to make a marriage.
