IUYINO WAR IONDI SAFETY HAVE YOUR Defeats Kiser; Hager Wins Over Sailor Hogan Paavo Katoiien, the Finnish bearcat, defeated Jack Kiser, holder of the Pacific northwest light-heavyweight championship, in a threo-fall combat headlining the weekly wrestling program ut the Roseburg armory last Satur day night. The rugged Finn's tri umph, however, did not transfer the title because, at 1S2, he was four pounds over the class weight limit of 178. Kiser weighed In ut 174. Hie third and deciding fall of the match was taken by the Finn hi a rapid-fire assault that lasted only 5 minutes 20 seconds. His deadly hangman hold, applied aft er a series of rabbit punches, head uuus and near-strangling head locks, put Kiser in a state of iner tia on the mat. Paavo had taken the second fall In 13:58 with a pile-driver, a process by which the victim is up-ended from the rear und plunked head foremost on the mat with sufficient force to knock him cuckoo. Kiser man aged to annex the opening fall in i:i;i wun a sort ot a lull Nel son apolied with his legs by stun ning the Finn in a duel of bodv slams. In the program opener, Tex Ha ger won a rough and-tough three fall tussle with Sailor Hoian that ended just 37 seconds under the overall time limit of one hour. After each man had gained a fall, Hager scored the decidins one in an odd manner. Hogan had sent riager to the canvas twice in quick succession with shoulder butts. On his third try he plunged his head squarely between Ha ger's upswung legs and, on the point of exhaustion, easily suc cumbed in that position to a scis sors hold. The attendance was one of the largest yet recorded at any of the cards, numbering approximately 700.
