Bailor Jack Wood, aftor.t no matches hful been tried here for several years, came from Grants Pass to stage his first show. He wrestled Frenchy Leavltt of Baker and the house drew, less than $50. Wildcat Pete put up a wonderful performance In. the seml-windup.- This first failure discouraged Wood for a time und he returned to Grants Pass to resume promot ing, but In the fall of the year at tempted another match,, meeting Wild Bill Donovan, and again mon ey, was lost. Wood, however, .be lieved he could develop local .faith in the game and his next match presented Ted Thye at the W. O. W. hall. There was a better at tendance, Including a big delega tion of his Grants Pass followers. Encouraged, he tried another match at the Hilarity hall, which drew more, and soon he was giv ing imatches regularly at the Hi larity hall or the Armory. j- Tit rued 'Km Awny. ; He brought Bull Montana up from southern California and- Al Karasick down from Portland to take part in-a match from which over 100 people were turned away. In early summer, Kd (Strangler) Lewis, the world's champion heavy weight wrestler In 1928, drew the largest house on record when he met red-headed young Bill Shaw and defeated him in five minutes with his vicious headlocks. That match ended the season for a time. The following fall wrestling was resumed and fight card were sand wiched in between, as they were the year before. Hassen Muham med, the Terrible Turk, opened tho season with a match in which he defeated liob Kruse of Portland,, just reutrned from a trip to Aus-' tralla. Kruse came back In the next match and defeated the Turk, after which Muhammed left for Arizona, planning to come back Oakland 4 8 0 ! ror more mntenes later, out aeatn Batteries: Baocht.

Bickerstaff. always a good sport, agreed to let Mrs. Jensen stage the match, receiving a cut on the re ceipts, hut Lewis later refused to come to Medford.

Upon his departure, TIerh Owent who had an application filed. with the boxing commission early last fall, was named boxing , promoter a,nd Mrs. Jensen continued pro moting wrestling matches, featur ing the heavyweight hoys. How ever, such an arrangement was unsatisfactory and Owen purchased Mrs. .-Jensen's Interests, for which she demanded a tidy sum, although she had nothing material to give the purchaser.
