Manager Joins

Bernard! Didn't Approve
O'Dowdy's Tactics, so
i He Took a Hand
He couldn't stomach the stomp
ing Patrick Henry; O'Dowdy was
giving his No. 1 Arkansas Scuf-
fler. Doc, at the armory last night
so Tony Bernard!, behemoth,
bearded manager of the Scufflers,
took a hand.
In fact, Tony took a hand and
planted It squarely in the middle
of O'Dowdy's mush, so to speak,
and Doc promptly sat astride the
ex-Oklahoma school master for
the match.
O'Dowdy Gets Tough
Until Tony started throwing
his dukes, O'Dowdy was a wild
man. He rolled Doc in the resin
in short order for the first fall,
gluing him there with a half
Boston crab. O'Dowdy lost the
middle fall when Doc let loose
a pair of hate-inspired haymak
ers and' followed np with a body
press.
Ernie Piluso, Portland Italian,
ran newcomer Jose Rodriquez
through the gauntlet much, to
the pleasure of a near-capacity
house, but lost victory when an
airplane spin backfired. He'd won
the first fall from the touted
Mexican, with whip wristlocks,
lost the second when Rodriquez
gripped him in a Boston crab, and
appeared to be making the kill
when catastrophe struck.
Mexican Hangs on
Coming out of the spin, Piluso
attempted to dump Rodriquez out
side the Ting but the Mexican
hung on and both banged to the
floor la a heap. Referee Harry
Elliott counted both out and
called the match a draw.
Dopey drop-kicked his way to
a two-out-of- three falls win over
the villainous Tex Porter in the
opener. Porter took the middle
fall, using an arm-bar.
