IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new walJ decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.

glory; there was no scratching, sev
eral folds were made by both teams

BERT KINCAID WRITES
TIMES ABOUT WRESTLING
Bert Kincaid has sent the following
letter to Tlie Daily Times for publica
tion and is printed in full:
“Daily Times.—There has been
some inquiries in regard to a wrest
ling match between Elms and myself
but Owing to the fact that there has
beep considerable dissatisfaction over
the last matches held here I feel that
a severe punch has been handed the
wrestling game in Anchorage and in
terest can only be brought back by
staging evenly matched men and
wrestling on the square. After follow
ing the mat game for 14 years, I find
wrestling one of the greatest sports
in the athletitc world, if conducted
along the right lines. I am willing
and anxious to meet Elms or any
other man of my weight in the coun
try and to insure the fans against a
frame-up in future events I would
suggest that a committee of three
reputable business men, who know
something about the game, be select
ed to choose the referee and handle
the gate receipts; that the referee be
given the right to' disqualify either
wrestler in case of any evidence that
the match was not on the square, and
in this event the entire receipts, after
paying for the hall and legitimate ex
penses, be turned over to some charit
able organization. If this could be
brought about I believe that interest
in the game could be renewed in An
chorage. I for one am perfectly will
ing to abide by these rules and believe
the other boys feel the same way
about the matter. Wrestling is one of
the oldest of athletic sports and is too
good a game to pass up. I would like
to meet Elms before the fans of An
chorage, as much to see who is the
best man as for the nominal amount
of my share of the gate receipts. If
Elms should win the decision over me
I am man enough to shake his hand
and congratulate him, but if I should
win there will be no come back for
him. Any man placing his money on
me can feel sure he will get my best
efforts and if I can throw Elms in two
minutes I will surely do so. In the
event the match between Elms and
myself is arranged the match and pre
liminaries will be staged as advertised
and the public is invited to watch the
training each afternoon and learn a
lesson on how to get out of a hold,
cleverly by using the knowledge of the
game. I would like to meet Elms if
the fans of Anchorage want to see the
match.
