Ticket! went on Mle yesterday for the LeRoy McGulrk-Pete Belcaatro world light heavyweight championship wrestling match at the Armory Mon day niflht, and already Indications are that the bout may prove a sell-out, Promoter Mack UlUrd said today. McGuirk, recognized by the Nation. 1 Wrestling association, will be mak ing his Jflrt appearance on the Pa cific coast Monday, leaving ths next morning for Oakland, where he will again wrestle before going to Lo An eeles. The match here will be a real championship bout, the belt and title going to Belctutro Immediately after the fight, If he wins. The Italian drop-kick expert Is working out brisk ly every day In order to be In his best condition for the chance at the worlrl title. m his professional debut, McGuirk won 87 straight matches before fl- champion, the first time they met He returned to the coaching of Ed ward Clark Gallagher, coach of the 1936 Olympic wrestling team, for sev eral months, and then went east, where he turned In a remarkable rec ord. He returned to Tulsa, Okla., and defeated Nichols In a catch weights bout met Nlchola again on March 6, 1934, in Tulaa, before a crowd of T.000, and won the light heavywelrnt title, two falls out of three. Mc- Oulrk took the first fall In 20 ft min utes with a wrlstlock and head scis sors. Nichols took the second In 18 minutes with a Japanese crab, and MoOuirk took the deciding tumble In 11 minutes with a kneellft, rolling double wrlstlock and body bar. Harry J. Landry, president of the National Wreetllng association, presented the championship belt which McGuirk has held since. .' In the middle main event, Toots Kates, Hawaiian championship hold er, will collide with Lea Wolfe, for one hour of wrestling under shs Au trallan system. Both of these mus cle twisters are well known herd, and both are fast, scientific, and dan gerous. Eates will probably roly on hla fast sonnenbergs and trick7 holds, while Wolfe will undoubtedly turn every effort toward applying his pun ishing figure-four body scissor. Once he has applied this hold, and started his opponent rolling In Its powerlul embrace, the hold is one of the most difficult to broak ever seen here. The curtain raiser will see Bex Mob ley, the human hoist from Alabama, apply his davlta to Frank ie Pens, San Francisco waterfront grappler, who has wnndered the face of the earth for five years, learning new tricks, many of which he will present to Mobley Monday night. Peck caught on here three week ago for his clean wrea tllng. but willingness to get tough 11 the opponent wnnta to- fight that way. The Peck-Mobley go will also be tinder the Australian system.

Olannonl started for St. Mary's against Washington State and vaj slated for the same Job when the Qaela tackle Oregon In San Fran cisco Sunday. He la definitely out of the game, the team physician sold. With Eddie Erdelatz. the other reg ular, on the bench with a shoulder Injury. Madlgan has, decided to start the second -stringers, Vic Strub and Jim Austin. They do lots of things In San Fran cisco that are Interesting. One of their long suit Is presenting drum- majors who can twirl a baton, or whatever they call those long. nickel - plated rode they whirl, until you get dizzy trying to follow their con volutions. When two such drum majors meet, as was the case In tae St. Mary a-oanta Clara came re cently, a real contest Is staged, each trying to outdo the other, and every one In the stands expecting them both to drop their batons the next minute. A shimmering wheel of light will suddenly unwind and tho baton go flying off into the air, only to have the d. m. grab It by one end and start It spinning In another di rection. A very good way to fill out the half-time lull. and biting. Belcastro heaved. Rum berg out into our lap, folding up our chair like an accordion, and Juai as we were' wandering woozlly to our feet, over the ropes came Pew. and the thing had to be done all over again. While we were pulling our scattered lacuuies together, tney both leaped out In the same place, and down we went again, to have them march up and down our spine In the most ap proved goose-step formation. Every time we'd essay to move an Inch, crunch, and down would como an other huge brogan on our ear or hand. By the time the boxing com mission had pried them apart and off us, we were so befuddled that we c'on't know to this day who won the match, and care even less. The only thing that reconciled us to having to buy a new hat next day. Is the con solation that we remained calm, rather than getting up and seriously Injuring one of those thoughtless boys.
