MEETING TONIGHT TO COMPLETE  ARRANGEMENTS FOR XMAS SHOW

  The directors of the Tonopah Volunteer Fire Department gymnasium, consisting of H. R. Grier, R. Fred Brown, Charles Epstein, James J. McQuillan, Ray Piercy and H. W. Skinner, will hold a meeting tonight to complete the final arrangements and details for the big boxing and wrestling carnival to be given at the Airdome in this city on the afternoon of December 25, at 2:30 o'clock, when The Masked Marvel, who has been imported by the Goldfield boosters, and William Berne, the great Russian-Slovenian, meet in a catch-as-catch-can wrestling match, best two out of three falls, to a finish, for a purse of $300, to be divided $200 to the winner and $100 to the loser, and a substantial side bet, for the benefit of the Volunteer Fire Department gym, which became badly involved in debt when part of the building was destroyed by fire recently.

  It is the desire and wish of the directors to try to get the institution on its feet by the first of the year. The Business Men's Athletic club very generously agreed to allow the net proceeds to go to the benefit of this worthy cause and have subscribed for $100 worth of ringside seats to promote and assist in making the event a great success. The committee on arrangements is today mailing out the big posters announcing the show to all parts of Southern Nevada, and it is anticipated that a record breaking crowd will be in attendance when Referee King Pierce starts the boys on their way Christmas day.

  Kid Carter, the great colored heavyweight and George Pappas, the San Francisco Greek heavy, are now hard at work getting in shape for the big 10 round boxing contest which will form part of the show, while William Berne, the wrestler, will leave Los Angeles tonight for Tonopah and should arrive here late tomorrow night or Saturday morning. Both of the boxers and Berne will condition themselves in Tonopah at the local gym, while The Masked Marvel will train in Goldfield under the direction of Victor Ajax.

  The advance sale of seats was placed with the Tonopah Club, the Cobweb, Tonopah Liquor Co., Mizpah Hotel bar and Walter Drysdale yesterday and the fans are already securing choice seats. In addition to the above placed, seats may be obtained from Harry R. Grier, general agent of the Tonopah & Tidewater Railroad, at his office. As the cause for which the contests are being given is most worthy and the business interests of the town will all be benefited by the many hundreds of people who will come from the outside who will spend their Christmas in our midst, let's all join in making the event one grand success.

ONE INJURED WHEN AUTOMOBILES CRASH

  Last evening while Lee Bell and two friends were out for a little spin in Bell's auto, on the road to Goldfield, after leaving the ball grounds, which are on the upgrade, they encountered a Buick car owned by Louis Prisinger. The car was occupied by four men who had earlier in the day gone to Goldfield from Tonopah and who had apparently been imbibing pretty freely. They were zigzagging back and forth across the road, according to Bell. The right-of-way belonged to Bell, because he was going uphill. The Buick car refused to turn out and when within a few feet of Bell's car its driver, to escape serious injury, made a turn to the left, as he could not pull his car out to the right, owing to a steep embankment. The Buick car continued to speed on. striking Bell's car on the center of one side and almost demolishing it.

  DeWitt Walker, machinist employed at the Midland garage, who was with Bell, suffered three broken ribs. Two men in the Buick car, after the smashup. got out and disappeared, leaving the driver and a third passenger, who became involved in a fist fight amongst themselves. The Buick car was also badly damaged. The owner of the car, Mr. Prisinger, was not in the machine and knew nothing of the accident until told of it last night.

  When the party left for Goldfield yesterday morning in the Buick the four men were somewhat under the influence of liquor and Mr. Walker made the statement to them that "gasoline and whisky will not mix."

GRIER SIGNS UP GREEK HEAVYWEIGHT TO MEET KID CARTER ON CHRISTMAS

  Matchmaker H. U. Grier today completed his Christmas card. Kid Carter, the local colored heavyweight, signed up to meet George Pappas, the  big Greek of the coast, for ten rounds, straight Marquis of Queensbury rules, the $300 purse to go 60-40. King Pierce of Tonopah will he the referee.

  Tickets were sent today to William Berne, the Russian wrestler, who meets Romanoff at Santa Barbara on the 11th. Berne will return to Tonopah immediately following this match. F. Martin is the name of Ajax's "unknown," but the name doesn't clear up much of the mystery.  He is said to be a tough man to beat. He will leave Los Angeles on December 11 for Goldfield, where he will train under the direction of Ajax.

  The Business Men's Athletic Club has been reorganized, with H. R. Grler as matchmaker and president. They assure the fans of Tonopah that their Christmas show will be of high quality. A band will play before and after the matches. Considerable money will change hands, it is believed, on the outcome of the wrestling match, as Berne will be backed heavily by the Slovenians and Ajax has a Goldfield following that is said to be ready to bet on his judgment. Berne will train in Tonopah.

A humongous explosion occurred in the town of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada on the morning of December 6, 1917.  About 2,000 people were killed in the blast and around 9,000 wounded.  It was the largest man made explosion until nuclear bombs were created.

WILLIAM DYER DIED TODAY AT 2:30 A.M.

  William Dyer, mlllman, employed at Millers until recently, died this morning at 2:30 o'clock in the Miners' hospital. Twenty-four days ago he was brought to the hospital suffering with appendicitis. An operation was performed, but complications set in that necessitated another operation last Saturday. He failed to rally from the shock.

  Mr. Dyer is survived by his wife and three children, who are here in Tonopah, two brothers of Austin and two sisters, Mrs. Maggie Day of Tonopah and Mrs. Francis of Austin.

  The funeral will be held tomorrow in the Catholic church and interment will be in the local cemetery.

  Mr. Dyer, who was 47 years old, was born in Reese River and lived in Nevada all his life. He was widely known in the state and whoever knew him was his friend, for Dyer had the quality that wins friends. Last August his brother, Louis Dyer, was killed in an explosion at Austin, and his mother died in the same month.

I wasn't paying much attention when I acquired this particular postcard.  I thought it would contain interesting facts about the sand dollar but actually it was a tie-in to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.  I did learn one thing though, if you break the dollar open there will be five 'white doves' inside.  I guess I never broke a sand dollar to find out, much less find one that wasn't already broken on the beach.

ARTICLES SIGNED FOR XMAS WRESTLING MATCH

  William Berne will meet an unknown wrestler of the Pacific coast on Christmas afternoon under the auspices of the Tonopah Business Men's Athletic club, of which Harry Grier is president. The articles call for catch-as-catch-can rules, the winner to make the best two out of three falls. The match will be held in the Airdome.
 
  Ajax, the Goldfield wrestler, says if Berne beats his man he will meet the Russian. Who AJax's man is he refuses to say, but Berne declares he is quite willing to meet anyone the Goldfield athlete produces. Berne is to wrestle in Santa Barbara on December 11 and will return to Tonopah immediately after that to get in training for Ajax's man.

  The purse will contain $300, $200 of which will go to the winner.

  In addition to the wrestling match, the local club's program will include a match between Kid Carter, the local colored heavyweight and some good man from Los Angeles or San Francisco. Grier expects to have the man here to sign articles within a few days.

I await with bated breath whether the poor Slovakian miners will have a good Christmas or be beaten over the head with a rolling pin by their wives after blowing all their money on a wrasslin' match.

Judges, or the populace, should demand this remedy for Intifada, sports kneelers, BLMers, and certain politicians.

The

My money is on the Russian, though I am not a Slav.  You would think that with a mighty warrior name like Ajax, Berne's opponent would be a shoe in to win, but by Ajax's own admission he stated that he had been away from the mat for a long time.  Plus the sportswriter of the day described Ajax as being 'Big-Little.'  Not good.

I hope the promoters can get 'The Flying Dutchman' to enter the boxing competition.  That guy could wrestle and box.  Not that it helped him any, but he also had an amazing resemblance to Charlie Chaplin.  The promoters should also get 'Overland George' to fight the guy who spoke ill against the USA.  Make it a special 'Cage Match.'

VICTOR AJAX CONFERS WITH BERNE ON THE PROPOSED WRESTLING MATCH

  Victor Ajax, the big little wrestler of Goldfield, came to Tonopah this afternoon to confer with William Berne, the Russian, in an effort to arrange a match. Berne went to Goldfield Sunday, dissatisfied with the results obtained by correspondence.

  Ajax said today that despite his long vacation from the mat, he was confident of his ability to throw the Russian. Berne is equally confident of his own ability to win. Ajax, avowing a disbelief in the ability of Berne, wants the latter to meet a San Bernardino man whom Ajax will bring up here. Berne says he'll meet anybody, winner take all, and it is plain that he means it. There is some talk of putting the match on here on Christmas day, along with a good bill of boxing. Ajax was accompanied by Art Marsh and C. Hall, both of the gold camp. Local Slovenians are enthusiastic in their support of the Russian and say they are willing to back him with their bankrolls.


FLAG INSULTER IS GIVEN TWO MONTHS

  This afternoon the case of George Andrews, better known as "Overland George," the pioneer prospector and all around good fellow, who defended the Stars and Stripes by refuting the disloyal remarks made by Charles Miller in the Casino Sunday night by hitting Miller and knocking him down, came up before Judge Dunseath at 2 o'clock. The Justice discharged the defendant and dismissed the charge of disturbing the peace against him. Andrews' attorney, Judge Peter Somers, objected to the dismissal, stating that he wished his client to be tried by a jury of his peers so that details or the Casino affair could be brought out. The ruling of the court prevailed.

  The case of Charles Miller, the German who has repeatedly by his insulting remarks against the United States government aroused the anger of loyal citizens, and who was knocked down by Andrews at the time of the trouble in the Casino, followed. He was charged with disturbing the peace. Judge Dunseath sentenced Miller to sixty days in the county jail. 

  Many loyal American citizens were present in the court room and were only awaiting an opportunity, in case of Millers discharge, to force him to carry the American flag down Main street and at the intersection of Brougher, force him to kneel and kiss the Stars and Stripes. Government officials have been notified of Miller's dastardly verbal assaults against Uncle Sam. At the expiration of his term in the county jail it is to be hoped quick action will be taken and he will be interned for the period of the war. Nothing was done with Silva, the proprietor of the Casino, who virtually came to Miller's rescue and is as guilty, in the eyes of the citizens of Tonopah, as was Miller.

  District Attorney Atkinson represented the state.

DISLOYAL REMARKS START SHOOTING

  Last evening Charles Miller, who has repeatedly insulted the Stars and Stripes, was again the cause of a melee in the Casino by his insulting remarks against the United States government and his praise for the Kaiser. George Andrews, who happened to be present, took umbrage at Miller's most foul and insulting remarks and struck him. At this juncture Proprietor Silva came from behind the bar and took a hand in the hostilities, striking Andrews, knocking him down and kicking him in the face.

  After Andrews had recovered he left the place and later returned, firing several shots into the floor, one bullet penetrating the piano. Of late the Casino proprietor has taken it upon himself to beat and bruise drunken men at his will. The place is becoming a rough house and the commissioners should cancel the license.

  Charley Miller should be made to kiss the flag before the public on the main street of Tonopah, or the officers should arrest him and turn him over to the proper government authorities. There is no place in the United States today, except Tonopah, that the utterances of this man Miller would be tolerated.

  Andrews was arrested today and his case will come up at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Miller was also arrested and will be given his hearing at the same time.
