FANDOM RANDOM By Dick Applegate Imagine Pete Belcastro as a movie actor I Moat wreetlers are actors at heart, the way they strut around after a fall and pretend they aren't scared to death of the guy they're wrestling, but moat of them aren't good enough at It to break Into the pictures.. Not so. Pet. Re writes to Mack LUlard: "I haven't bad many match' es down here, only 16, and won all of them. I've been working at War ner Brother Studios the last two day doubling for Warren William in a picture caned "aentieman iroin South Bend." His butler nd he ao some wrestling and other gym ex ercise, that I do for him. I'm teach ing the leading lady a few holds that ahe Is supposed to throw wu- llama with. Guess 111 have to do the foiling for him too. "Thl 1 the leading lady' first picture. Her name Is June Orlves. a pretty brunette. The director aald he would give me some pictures with Williams. A soon a he doe I'll sen you ome. I'm wrestling In Taft t morrow night and I don't know frim there." Pete end hi let ter by mentioning the fact that It LUlard ha any tough wrestler up here, he'd be glad to com up nd polish them off some evening, but edmlU that he's not ready to come yet. Pete's a good wrestler. His attack is as versatile and awirt a any we've seen. If he had Prankle Peck's rugged ability to take It, combined with hla own lightning drop kicks and sonnenbergs, he'd be one of the best wrestler that ever lived. But with his enthusiasm, he some times hurt himself more than nl opponent, particularly when he miss es one of those drop kick and lands on hi spine. At that, Ieroy McOulrk, the light heavy cham pion who wrestled Pete here, ad mitted after the match that Pet hed given him his best battle In a year. . Ward Howell, the ex-Normal giant now playing forward at Oregon, Is getting more favor able comment In the press than any bosketbaH ployer we can remember. HI picture ha been taken so many time that be la In some danger of getting Klelg eye. We have never, and dont now. liked Ward Howell. But we are will ing to admit that he' on of the cleverest basketball handler on the coast. Combined with Sam JJebo wit -and "Pat" Patteraon, the col ored tar, Howell la one of th trio rated the best In the northwest conference. We, like everyone else who saw last year' Norml team. ar at a loss to explain that 40-38 thumping Washington handed them last week. "By superior passing, tamlno, and drive Is In answer." say Frank Oniric, Associated Press ports writer who saw the game. Oorrle aaya: "A itranger compar ing th two teams In practice would unhesitatingly pick the Webfooters. He would point to the exceptional height, shooting prowest and speed of the Ore- gon star, fie would be unable to aee the determination, ag gresslveness arid tireless, accur ate passing of the Huskies."

TV jC HOLLIS AND CHICK TICKET COST CUT Wrestling Promoter Mack Llllard announced today that, beginning next Monday, wrestling price la thl city wul drop from a 88 cent top to 76 cent top, with balcony du?ata reduced from 75 cent to 60 cent. Thl will not result la smaller cards, be stated after a telephone oonver- aatlon with th booking office In San Ftanctaco, but assured th Mall Tribune that he will continue to present three mala event on each card. Thl will be the first time In the history of local wrestling that three main esenta of the high quality be ing presented her have geen offered at that low a price. LUlard said. The move marks the launching of a new wrestling season here, with the best performers now wrestling in Los Angeles, Oakland and San Francisco billed to appear here during the late winter and spring. Aa an example of the fine cards h Intends having. LUlard todav an nounced what he believes hi best how of th year, with Ken Hollls, the wild-eyed Arkanaa terror who baa yet la lose hi first match her, against Dud Chick. Hollla challeng ed the winner of the Chlck-Kennas-ton battle, and Chick ha accepted the gauntlet. Of all the wrestlers who have performed here from time to time, Hollla I believed to be the dirtiest. Chick. In winning four straight bout in Medford, has yet to resort to foul play, but hi airplane scis sors, hi flying body butt, his figure lour spmer web hold, his step-over shoulder bar and hi Justly famous isnat" airplane spin will give him the decided edge In the betting. Marine Bob Kennaston, pride of old Hill about to start on a barn storming wrestling tour of California. will meet Prank Taylor, big and handsome Ohio Bute university atar. in tn middle event. After a aplendtd showing against Chick last week. Xennsaton threw away his chances of victory when he refused to break a ooeton craD hold and lost on a foul. Th opening battle will be an all-meanl fray, with Tiger Taskoff, bellicose Bulgarian, tangling with Max Glover, the unorthodox and ellghtly shady grappler from De troit, oiover waa leading Taylor In their bout last week, relying strong ly on dirty punch In the clinches, when Taylor caught him In the mid riff with a nicely timed flying allrut- ahot bounce through the rope to end th battle. , SILVERTON, WEST LINN TOP BASKETBALL LOOP SILVERTON.
