"A'GE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1934. mm 7AST GRAPPLING SLATED TONIGHT Y Wolfe and Hansen in Hour's Match Anderson and Thompson Furnish Other Half of Double Main Event Promoter Met Llllard will pread three-match wrestling feast for Med ford fans at the Armory tonight, with Les Wolfe, Texas, and Charlie Hansen, Seattle, and Swede Anderson, Medford, and Tommy Thompson, as the main course, while a pair of young novices will serve as appe tizers. Wolfe, whose popularity here has been undlmmed by a pair of losses to Al Karaslck, will be taking on con siderable weight In his match with Hansen, but declares he will show the dynamic Dane that Texas pro vides no set-ups In the grunt and grimace game. They will tug and heave for an hour unless one or the other secures a pair of falls. Anderson Faces Thompson. In the other half of the double main-event card, Medford's former footbal star, Swede Anderson, will meet a newcomer to looal matdom In the person of Tommy Thompson of St. Louis. Thompson comes with a record of victories in the middle-west and Is said to hav a great assort ment of fancy holds. Anderson, whose training has been mainly supervised by Ray Friable during their spare time as fireman, is a powerrui atn lete, able to break many holds by sheer strength. Although he lacks the polish of more experienced grap plers, he boasts a terrible Sonnenberg which reduces even the most skilled opponent to helplessness. Henry Ounter, Inexperienced Grants Pass youth, who tips the beam at lao, will pit his weight and brawn against the tricks and knowledge of holds possessed by John Shaw, 1M pounder from the same city, In a three-round match scheduled for three minutes In eaoh round. Shaw declares he can stay with the big boy for the three rounds despite the difference In weight, Tonight's show, which opens at 8:30, will again be on a Ilrst-come-flrst-served basis, with two sections reserved for early ticket buyers. The promoter has boon angling for an h appearance here of Ted "King Kong" Cox, oolorful behemoth of the mat who has proved a big attraction In the larger cities. Thore are also a couple, of newcomers awaiting a chance to show here, which Llllard expects to glvo thorn in the noar future. Fears No Big Bad Wolfe 1 E AFTER CRAB HOLD PORTLAND, Ore., Mutch 20.
