THIS WEEK'S CARD
Pet Belcaatro, scrappy Italian
grappler. who has twice emerged
winner from bout with Red Devil,
the mysterious meanle, will appeur
In the main event of next Thurs
day nlght'i card at the armory
agatn&i Tony Catalano, another Ital
ian who like his wrestling rough,
Promoter Mack LI Hard announced
today.
With this bout "In the . bag."
and promising even a wilder tussle
than either of the two between Red
Devil and Belcaatro, Ullard has gone
one further and secured Jimmy
High, 300-pound Chicago matman,
for an appearance In the seml-flnal
against Joe Hubka, popular ex-nth-lete
from University of Nebraska.
The main event should furnish
wild one hour or two out of three
falls, If the brand of wrestling
Catalano demonstrated here two
weeks ago was a prevue of what
this boy Is capable of. He lost the
match on fouls to Joe Hubka, but
during the tussle he turned loose
more fireworks than have been seen
in some time at the armory arena
The rough type of bone-bending is
right down Belcastro's alley, how
ever, and the 6acramentan usually
has one better for every bit of foul
play that a rlngmate tries to pull
on him.
Contrast, always popular on wrest
ling cards, will be In order Thurs
day night, for the seml-flnal match
promises a show of scientific wrest
ling. Hubka has already demonstmt
ed his clean, clever mat tactics.
and High, a newcomer to the coast,
is touted as even a gi-eator exponent
of the fast and fancy. Hubka nas
come out of both his appearances
here with moat of the honors, and
fans will be glad to see him matched
sgnlnst 'a good man of his own
type.
Red Devil, who lost his mask when
he fouled Belcaatro, but remained
unidentified as far as local fans
and wrestlers are concerned. Is in
another green rage according to the
promoter and la anxious to rein
state himself after what he terms
the "dirty deal" of last Thursday's
bout.

WITH HOT FINAL ROUND
RIVERSIDE. Cal., Jan. 7. (T)
Charles Quest. Los Articles, had i
onrd of 85 strokes posted here today
for the rest of the wayfaring golfers
to shoot at In the winter tournament
tour.
A driving range pro. Quest set this
up yeeterdsy In the final round of
the Riverside $3,000 amateur-pro golf
tournament as he and his partner.
Al Barbee, Hollywood, turned In a
great best ball score of 63. 10 strokes
under par. to win the title.
While Barb pe had to be content
with Aie trophy, he aided Quest by
three strokes In pirklng up a totnl
of 9303.50 prine money. Quest wm
the low scorer of the tournament
because he shot a 00 Saturday when
he and Barbee enmo In with a 63
beNt ball.
Tied for second yentrertay were
Jimmy Thomson, Long Beach, teamed
with Phil Plnlay, high-ranking south
ern California amateur, and Bryan
Nelson. Tcxarkaua. Texas, paired with
Lieut. Bob Israel, mi aviator at Ma:ch
Field, to turn In 04a.
Those German promoters who lured
Stevt Hamas to Berlin to meet Max
Achmellng have stolen the only fair
heavyweight bout Madison Square
Garden had In sight for Its winter
bout In Miami.
So the proposed visit of Jack Pet
ersen, English heavyweight champion,
may prove a llfesaver If It mate
rializes. A match with Bob Olln.
light heavyweight tltleholder, would
have an International, championship
flavor.
Having knocked out Larry Gains,
Jack Doyle, Len Harvey, Jack Petti
fer, George Cook and Don McCor kin
dale on his way to the English
heavyweight throne, Petersen Is look
tng toward our shores. Petersen Is
considered the cleverest big man de
veloped In England since Bombardier
Wells. A better puncher than Wells,
he has shown, too, that ha can stand
a punch better than the famed Bom
bardier. For all his cleverness and punch
though, It Is very doubtful If Peter
sen could be expected to cope with
the heavyweights In the proposed
elimination tournament, for he would
have to concede considerable weight
to most of our big boxers.
Lacks Necessary Weight.
A little fellow in comparison with
our present crop of heavies, be is
hardly more than a light heavyweight,
tipping the scales at less than 180
pounds.
However, he la tall and may add a
few pounds to his frame before he
stops growing. The one thing sgalnst
his chances for great Improvement
Is his poor eyesight.
Petersen 'has stopped a few big
boys, George Cook and Don McCork-
Indale for Instance, but on the whole
most of his vicltlms have been little
more than overgrown middleweight
and llght-heavles. McCorklndale show
ed himself to be a fair boxer when
he fought here last winter.
The present Idol of the English box
Ing fans Is anxious to come to Amer
ica to enrn a shot at the heavyweight
crown now worn by Mnx Baer, but
the folks In England would like to
see him In action against a couple of
our first light heavyweight before
venturing a try at our heavies.
Petersen would find plenty of op
portunlty here for the stage Is set
for the entrance of some youns
heavyweight who packs a punch and
can fight.
Br Ushers Popular Here.
Jimmy Johnston 'matchmaker for
the MHdlson Square Garden) seems to
have some sort of soft spot In his
heart for English heavyweights. You
may recall he Imported on Phil Scott
from England and djd right well for
Mr. Scott and Mr. Johnston even
though the cash customers were not
thrilled by his efforts to entertain
them.
Scott's exhibition with Jack Shar
key In Miami set a new low in heavy
weight boxing entertainment.
