my Martindale in an uproarious
mix and Weaver came out on top
after Ruffian Frank James 1 was

dale for the first fall in 18 min
utes with a knee drop and a body
press. Martindale came back to

by a rolling cradle leg split. That
i was at the seven-minute mark.

i Pederson and his foe had come
.close to victory . several times.
Pederson finally clinched It with a
full nelson. ,
Weaver knocked off James for
the first fall of their, scrap via a
-"neckbreaker. The angered
James came back with a series of
r head butts that had Weaver grog
gy. After he r had clamped on a
- Boston crab and Buck bad given
up, the colored gladiator added a
couple j more head butts that
- brought on a near riot. Referee
Harry Elliott announced that
Weaver was unable to return to
the ring, but said he was award
ing the match to Buck, neverthe-
less. '
James, wrathy at the verdict,
and said he would bring his part
ner, Don Kindred, in with him
next week to see that he got a
square deal.
