TOPS MAT CARD

Promoter Mack Lilian!, always
anxious to please the wrestling
fans, has answered their many re
quests and signed Pete Belcastro,
the Wild Italian from Weed, to
meet Danny McShain, Hollywood
roughneck, in the top mam event
at Medford armory Monday night.
These two met a week ago last
Monday and, although McShain
won, he was given a thorough
going-over by Belcastro. The two
men resorted to everything they
could think of and even carried
the match into the laps of spec
tators. Ever since Belcastro has
been after a rematch but McShain
refused to go through with it.
After considerable dickering and
insistence on the part of Lillard.
McShain accepted the match and I
now Belcastro will be out gunning
for sweet revenge come Monday
night.
Last Monday night, when Bel
castro issued a challenge to Mc
Shain from the ring, he offered to
donate his share of the purse to
some chairty chosen by the wrest
ling commission, but in order to
get McShain to agree to the bout.
Lillard arranged for the winner
to take all money set aside for i
this fray.
A supporting card of two
matches of six 10-minute rounds
each will be arranged today with
one of the principals to be a new
comer in the person of Jim Hef
ner, making his first appearance
in any southern Oregon ring.

Benefit Dance
A dance, featuring King Tutt's
four-piece band, will be held at
the Chateau tonight for the pur
pose of raising funds to support
the Ashland baseball team. The
money raised at the public affair
will be used to buy balls and bats
so that the organization might
continue playing throughout the
summer.
The Ashland team, under direc
tion of Ernie Francis, is made up
solely of local material with no
outsiders in the lineup to bolster
the ranks. This social event cer
tainly deserves the support of
Ashland residents since an eve
ning of dancing at the popular
Chateau might enable these boys
to continue playing baseball for
the summer months.
