It will bt cleanlea versus meant la ding-dong battle royal at the Med ford srmory tonight, with the man' nerty wrestling gentlemen boiling numerical odda of a to 1 over their rlllalnoua, foul-punching brethren. Among those tlx grapplera who will tart proceedings In a rree-for-all that It expected to eclipse anything yet seen In the local arena will be the Messrs. Alvln Brltt, Sam Feebacx, Sailor Dick Trout and Jlmmle Good rich of the clean-wrestling brigade, Upholding the honor (II there Is such a thing I of the underhanded tribe will be Pete Belcastro, the Mad Ital lan of Weed, Calif., and Joe 8mo- llnskl, the Polish Falooka. Directly following that opening brawn will come Promoter Mack Lll lsrd's weekly program ol pain and punishment which will be arranged In the following manner: first two eliminated In the battle royal will meet In the opening event, second pair of grapplers to take the count will tangle In the middle bout, ana the remaining duo of gladiators will face each other In the top main event, consisting of the best two out of three falls or a one-hour time limit. First two matches will be un der the Australian fall system of six 10-mlnute rounds or the best two out of three falls. - Three personal feuds are expected to be renewed with vigor In the bat tle royal. last week, Pet Belcaatro detested Sailor Dick Trout with an extremely loul punch to the groin that everyone In the place witnessed but Referee Ray PrUble. Tonight, Trout will probably waste little time in singling out the Mad Italian for some bones t-to-goodness revenge work. Also next week, Joe Smollmkl went berserk, more so than usual, to al most whip big Alvln Brltt, and the sx-Junlor heavyweight champion of the world has avowed that If he ever eta his hands on the Polish Pslooka again he will not only break hie arm over the ring ropea but do the same to bis neck. Although technically bar red from the Medford ring, Brltt used the arm-breaker over the ropes to finally defeat dirty Joe, and the act met with howls of glee from the patrons Still another feeling of hatred that may be aired tonight la that between the two dirt boys, Smollnskl and Bel caatro. To aay they bate each other Is putting It rather mildly, and It would surprise nobody If they went at It hammer and tongs from the opening bell, entirely disregarding the other four grapplera. Promoter Ullard, In arranging the battle royal, aald that he believed it waa the fairest wsy In matching the grapplers for the card to follow, the outstanding of which will get a crack at Cowboy Dude Chick, Junior heavy weight champion of the world, next Monday night.
