MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, DECEMBER 193. Savoldi-Belcastro Grapple Takes-Sport Limelight Saturday Night DROP KICK EXPERTI Invents Wrestling Tricks AND ITALIAN STAR -: r;,i ;:j PROMISE TILLS ii v Two-Ply Card Will Also Pit Red Demon and Bonny Muir in Opening Grapple First Gong at 9 P. M. Fresh from a main event appear nce at Portland Wednesday night. In which he run amuck and flat' - toned first his opponent, then the referee, and finally the promoter with hla dynamite laden drop-kicks. Jumping Joe Bavoldl, famous grap pler from Three Oaks, Mich., will make his second appearance at the Med ford grunt and grimace empo rium Saturday night against Pete Bclcaatro, his cocky young contem porary. Tans are expecting the beat "raa- sle" that Mack Lillard has promoted In a long time when the spotlight la turned on this combination, who will tug and tumble for one hour or two out of three falls In the main event of a two-ply card. The appear ance of the "Greek god" against any opponent would draw well In Medford, but when the promoter signed up Bclcastro after the latter out-meanlcd Red Devil here last week, Interest In the bout was dou bled. Pete rnlmprnwd. Wily Pete boaata he will "muas up" 6avoldl Just the same as any other grnppler, and that he won't give Joe a chance to get started on fancy matwork. But the man with the Adonls-Uke physique, who draws murmurs of admiration each time he enters the ring, la a wrestler of no little experience and skill. In the arena he weaves back and forth like a' caged panther, eying hla opponent for a chance to close with one ot the many spectacular holds he has mastered. Very seldom does he use his drop kick, but -when It comes both the victim and the audience know some thing has happened. Like the flex ing of a bow, Savoldl springs Into the air and deals his adversary a tunning punch to tha head or chest with both feet, after which the falls come easy. Belcnstro claims hla drop-kicks are Just as effective as those of Jumping Joe, but fans believe that unless he pulls aome of the faat ones for which he la noted, Pote will have diffi culty In coming out of thla fraens with the odd tumble under his belt. Mnlr Meets Demon. For the other half of the program Bonny Mulr, a Medford favorite from Australia, will take his turn at demon-aubduing for an hour or two out of threev falls with Red Devil, the guess-who grappler. The 336-pound man mountain, from somewhere, has been wearing a sulky expression behind his scarlet mask thla week, due to a beating last Thursday at the hands of Belcastro. and made vows that whomever was cnonen as his next opponent would suffer for It. Mulr will probably have to aban don hla rlean style of matwork and knuckle down to cavemen atratrgy In order to make headway against the mystery man, but, on the other hand. Bonny has ways of hla own to handle the rough and tough ones. He stands for Just about so much maltreatment, then resorts to a few good old-fashioned wrestling holds, which he claims are pretty good things to know, after all. Promoter LUIard signed up Ssvoldl at additional expense, but will offer the card at lower admission ratea than he charged for Jumping Joe's first appenrance In Medford, and says he Is expecting a sell-out. Ray Fria ble will referee the opening bout, scheduled at 0 o'clock. ; Trlcyclca get them repaired oi painted for Xmaa. Medford Cycle. 33 N Fir. I HOCKEY PLAYER KNOCKS FOE COLD IN WILD FRAY liy Id (.11 S. H I I.Kit I ON. Jr. Associated Press Sports Writer.) NEW YORK, Dec. IV ff) Frank Calder, national hockey league presi dent, who has spent 20 years trying to persuade hockey players to k,e?p their tempers under control, today was trying to decide where the fault lay In a stick-swiglng affair serious enough to bring two match penaltlt-a at one time. Nels Stewart of the Boston Bruins and Dcde Klein of the New Yo-fc Americans, were found guilty of chop ping each other down in the furious ly contended finish of an overtime game which the American wons last night, 4 to 3. Klein suffered a four- Inch scalp cut and a battered shoul der as the result of Stewart's wallop, while Stewart was less seriously hutt. No decision is expected from the league president until after he his perused the reports of Referees Eu sebe Daigneault and Odle Clegho.n The affray resulted from a mild roughing match. As Klein and Stew art were waved off. the former rip ped his rival with his stick. Stewart then swung his club so hard he broke It over Klein's head and then start ed dodging as Red Conn went after him the same way. It was 10 min utes before play could be continued, and Klein was unconscious even longer. ".lumping" Joe Knvoiiii, ulio inn tic hKlory in fuollmll nud later taught the wrestling fraternity a few trick, will meet Prle Bclcastro. versatile tendon twister In Saturday night's mat show at the Armory. BIG LEAGUE OWNERS SANCTION NO MAJOR CHANGES NEXT YEAR NEW YORK, Dec. 14. (APf Major league club owners, meeting In an nual session, looked back on their own operations through 1034 and de rided they'd make no major chnngen for 1038. They voted down a resolution by L. C. McEvoy of the St. Louis Browns to ban all radio broadcasting after present contracts expire, bIro reject ed a plan to curb synthetic double headers, decided to place all club scouts and trainers under contract and parceled out some of the funds they will get from the all-star game in Cleveland July 8. From the all-star game receipts $30,000 will go to the American Le gion for excuses in operating the Junior Legion play and $60,000 will go to each league for welfare and charitable work. The placing of scouts and traliirrs under contracts means they now will have the same status as ball playcra and cannot transfer from one club to another without the owner's consent. DEER IN DEATH BAM CHICAGO, Dec. 14. (A9) Richard E. (Dick) Hanley. who coached North western to shares of' the 1930 and 1931 Western conference football championship, has been given an op portunlty to resign, it was reliably reported today. He has not made up his mind to do so, but it Is considered likely t';e faculty athletic committee of the university at a meeting today will not recommend that another con tract be offered him. Although North western's football fortunes have dwindled since 193' it was said opposition from a fac ulty group had more to do with tue situation than criticism of his abil ity to develop winning teams. Han Icy conferred yesterday with Dr. Wal ter Dill Scott, president of the uni versity. He was graduated from Washington State college In 1919, coached f r two years at Pendleton, Ore., high school.
