MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1933. Fans Bombard Masked Wrestler With Chairs for Dirty Tactics Good will Knight -By Pap Tigers Get Last Chance at Lithian Hoopers Tonight PAGE TEN F IN NICKOF III Sock On Jaw for Fallen Foe Brings Wild Demonstra tion Healy Wins Open ing Match From Chief Lidles in the audience fainted and men Ian Agreed that it waa the moat exciting outcome In local wrestling htatory, when Masked Marvel, nooaea wrestler, waa rushed from the ring at the armory laat night by a police escort, aJter starting a riot la which a score of spectators entered the ring and beat him nearly unconscious with chairs before officers restored order. The riot 4tar led when the mysteri ous meanle, having won a fall from Don Wagner of Corvalll via the fisti cuff route, assisted the exhausted Oregon Stater to his feet and then let him have a punch to the chin. Wag ner grappled with the hooded wrestler but wua felled and knocked out by a chslr, aimed at the Marvel, which came hurtling over the ropes. Referee Kay Frlsble had left the ring after giving the fall to the dis guised grappler, out rushed back as the fans surged through the ropes. By this time Wagner had regained con sciousness, and was pummelling the Marvel with Friable trying to pry the two apart and at the same time ward off the enraged spectators and thoir flailing chairs. Offliers Rehture Order Moid lug themselves from the seals that fairly rained Into the ring. Frlsble, the announcer and several others protected the grappler, who were struggling In a heap on the can vas. Chief of Police McCredle, Offi cer Walter Rclnking and State Patrol man Joe Folsom soon restored enough order to take the Marvel from the arena. Bruised and terrified, he was locked In a dressing room until the crowd of nearly 1000 fans calmed down and filed from the building. He waa not put under arrest, but members of the boxing commission said last night hi may be barred from future appear ances here. Don Wagner, the favorite through out the rough and tumble match, fared ulmont as badly as the mystery man. It was no light tap that he received on the back of the head when the chair struck him. Wagner was given the match, which lasted IB minutes, after refusing to take a fall on fouls just before the bellicose Marvel added Insult to in Jury with his fateful punch to Wag ner's chops. The clip was too much for the fans who took their wrestling more seriously. Having already seen the hooded wrestler gouge eyes, pull hair, and take several vicious swings at the referee, they needed no further excuse to go after the disguised roughneck. Murvel Terrified Thoroughly scared, the Marvel was grateful for the protection of the police, after he found that he was not under arrest. The fact that he may be barred from Medford left no Impression; he said he has already been barred from 33 states I In comparison with this melee, the first match of the program was piti fully tame. Jimmy Healy of San Francisco surprised the fans and even surprised himself by winning two straight falls from "Chief" Stronfibow, giant 276-pound Shawnee Indian. The Indian, highly touted for rough and tumble mat work, was pointed to I win the bout with little difficulty.1 but It took the pugnacious Ban Fran- j clacan only 9 minutes In the first and 8 In the second fnll, to show the be- j he moth Indian who was who.

But there is another side to this blue-eyed magician against time It waa Sir Malcolm, the man, not the speed demon, who listened. spoke and altogether proved himself to be a human being of rare qualities. Pointing to the British and Ameri can flags painted In friendly embrace his great Juggernaut, the Blue bird, Sir Malcolm declared. "Better understanding and appre ciation of America and Britain, by one and the other, strikes me as be ing the most Important thing in our world today, ir wo stand together the world must follow our lead. And, after all, that closer relationship be tween us should not be too difficult. "We speak the same language. Most of our national Ideals are one and the same. We spring from the same stock. What a grand thing It would be if we as Britons could come to better understand you Americans and your remarkable cordiality, hospital ity and klndncns. At the Hnme time I wish It were poaslblo for Ameri cans to better understand us In Eng land. - "It Is regrettable, but true I be live, that most of your countrymen who come to England leave us with the Idea that we are what you call 'high hat. We really are not. A Wince of Persons "We Britishers are not any more friendly with other Britons who are unknown to us than we are with Americans. Therefore, It Is not strange that our reserve- also asserts Itself with Americans even though we would delight in getting vastly better acquainted with our cousins on this side of the Atlantic." In that contention, Sir Malcolm practices what he preaches. To news paper men; bothersome dowagers who tell him they are praying for his safety and success with the Blue bird: persistent urchins who tag him at every step for autographs; In fact, to the whole world of persons who dog his steps on this side of the At lantic, Sir Malcolm la always the at tentive, courteous and friendly sort of person which makes him a prince of men tin well as speed. There Is No Celling Asked whether there was a limit to a man's speed on land, Sir Mai colmn asserted that if given a per fect runway, beach or course, there was absolutely no question In his mind that any speed Is possible. He said the Bluebird, as It stands. Is capable of 335 miles an hour. But, he adds, there Is no course where such speed can be established. "I could return to England tomor row and build a car capable of going more than 400 miles per hour. Of that, I am sure. If I had the time and money. But to date there is no place where one could drive that fast." headlocks or body slnma, so ho took to the air and flattened him with Sonnenborgs for the first tumble. For the second fall he applied a toe hold with such vigor that Strongbow. shaking like a tub of Jcllo, was forced to pat the mat. Besides outweighing him 65 pound.-, the big Indian stood a head taller than Healy. , E RUES ON MONDAY KANNA3 CITY, Mo March I.

( AP) When Sir Francis Drake abandoned his game of bowls upon the green at Plymouth Hoe and sailed forth to defeat he Spnnlsh Armada, he probably was not aware that he had been breaking the law right and left. W. S. A. Brown, a Bristol lawyer. in the course of researches among dusty tomes of English law. has Just discovered that the game "f bowls is illegal and punishable by a term In jail. In the 13th and 14th centuries." he said, "the game of bowls was be coming too popular and came under the ban of both king and parlia ment, because It was Jeopardizing the science of archery, which was. of course, necessary to carry on wtvitf. Therefore sundry statutes were pass ed prohibiting the game in the reigns of Edward III snd Richard II. and other monarch, in 1555, Queen Mary decided the game incited and allowed unlawful ssembHrw. sedi tions and conspiracies. "Those statutes have never been repealed." 4 Collector Heslcge I'o toff tee PORT CLINTON.

Steve Welmer, better known as "Sailor Sharkey," erstwhile boxing champion, boxing promoter, movie heavy, globe trotter, baseball man ager, war veteran and much-married man, arrived in Medford yesterday with the avowed intention of at tempting to revive boxing in this city, and to promote a good baseball team for participation in any league that acts as though they mlRht want to take some good thrashlnges from the "Sailor's" outfit. Accompanied by his sixth wife, Sharkey says this Is the first time that he has been In Medford, but he expects to be in the swim of things before long. He boasts a long and successful movie career, having play ed In such pictures as "The Sea Beast." with John Barrymore, and the "Isle of Forgotten Men." At one time the "Sailor," a Chi nook Indian, was light heavyweight boxing champion of the TJ. S. navy, and since that time has managed some good fighters. He has been all over the globe and crossed the Amer ican continent four times, taking on all comers, when on a boxing tour In his prime. At various times during his color ful career lie has made and lost four fortunes the fourth one having de parted for parts unknown some time ago. The pursuit of the fifth for tune now occupies the Sailor's mind, he having more of a flair, according to his own story, for a colorful way of acquiring wealth than, as he put It, "pushing a pencil or shoveling ' dirt." It Is the intention of Welmer to try to run his boxing shows In con Junction with the wrestling bouts now so popular here, he said today. 1 '.IfUH-.atW1 7154 BASEBALLS ST. LOUIS.
