So to i.lght. Promoter Mack LUlard has gtv ( n him Fireman Ray Friable of Med- ijrd aa playmate in a one-hour i latch at the armory which will be i '.ie opening half of a double-barreled card. Lea Wolfe, Texas, rolling scls i 3r expert, and Pete Belcastro, Sac i&mento, will trade grips and grunts in the top half of the show. In taking on Friable, Clemens Is riving away a lot of weight he may vJ&h he had should the fireman de cide to use his devastating flying !clssors. It takes a big and durable opponent to stay on hie feet when Hay's 208 pounds cornea flying feet :lrst through the air with an impact sufficient to Jar the breath from a moose. In his "Indian paralyser," however, the Oklahoma athlete has dangerous hold, demonstrated with Pete Belcastro In last week's matches. Ularnplng an opponent's head between 'il feet, Clemens puts pressure oo the cords of the neck which makes the best of them say "Uncle t" If Wolfe can get the belligerent Belcastro softened up to the point where be can get In position for the rolling sclssorss the result In that entanglement should be a foregone conclusion. Once Wolfe gains this hold, the hapless opponent Is banged to and fro on the mat until he la completely "out." Belcastro will be a tough proposi tion for the scissors artist, however. as the Sacramentan la rarely on the defense and prefers to carry the bat tle to his adversary. It's a hard mat ter to throw a man when he la do ing most of the leading. Belcastro not only carries the fight Into bhe enemy camp but Invariably puts on a good show while he's doing It. Seats for tonight's show will again be open on, a first-come first-served basis with exception of two sections reserved for late comers and early ticket buyers. All space wilt go at a uniform price.
