The wrestling match was not held
Inst night as scheduled because Ren-
trop, who waa to meet Thermopeles,
the Terrible Greek, is in a hospital at
Houston, Tex., recovering from an op-
eraUon for injuries received in a bout
there Monday night.
Word reached here yesterday morn-
ing from his attending physician that
Rentrop sustained serious Injuries
from the breaking of an old wound
in the contest Monday night. After
winning the match Rentrop com-
plained of suffering In his head. A
physician was summoned but before
he arrived Rentrop become uncon-
sci""*. He was operated upon short-
ly srwards and was not expected
to . vlve. Learning from statements
made in a semi-conscious mate of the
match here the physician wired to the
local promoters of his condition. Ha
was resting well yesterday morning,
the doctor stated, although he Is not
entirely out of danger.
The promoters stated that they
failed in an effort to obtain a sub-
stitute for last night's match because
of the lateness of the notification of
Rentrop'^ Injury. They are very sor-
ry that the local fans were disap-
pointed they said.

ENGLISH BANK CLERKS
TO BECOME UNIONISTS
(Corpegpondfnce of th« Aatoclated Press.)
London, Nov. 24.—Many'thousands
of bank clerks here will shortly be-
come part of the great army of trade
unionists. Their chief grievance Is
the continued employment of girls
In places formerly held by men. They J
say they'do not object to fair compe-
tition with women who accept men's
jobs at men's pay, but, they state,
tho tendency now is for girls em-
ployed temporarily during the war to
be taken on the permanent staffs to
the detriment of former , soldiers
seeking employment.
They object to the placing of bank
clerks returning from tho army in
positions subordinate to women who
have taken their places during their
absence.
