Tag-Team Match Slated In Armory Ring Saturday Yorg Cretorian and Kurt von Poppenheim early this week issued a challenge to the Parks and Gorky brothers, but it was ignored. However, two rough grapplers loudly accepted the challenge. Tbev were George Dusette and Buck Weaver, a concentration of wresting ability and stamina. Weaver was especially happy to get a crack at Yorg and Kurt be cause they were the pair that eliminated him from the battle roy al last week. He has promised them a full measure of revenge. Buck did salvage some glory, though, by returning to whip Prince Omar in the first bout fol lowing the -royal. The Persian was quickly stopped with a neckbreak er. Both Cretorian and Von Poppen heim also wan their bouts last week. Yorg, the Rumanian Ape Man. went on to take final honors and the $250 purse. Kurt proved his ability by adding Cowboy Carlson's scalp to his victory string.
