Until the Mad Italian broke up the furniture In the third round, along with the Polish Palooka's cranium, the huge outpouring or spectators were as limp as rags from witnessing the grudge battle between the two vllllans. Before- this gets any further. It better be reported that In the main event Cowboy Dude Chick, aa per usual, gave Monte La Due the lariat spin after 28 minutes, which wsa all that was necessary.

Hating each other plenty, the two "dirt" boys came out at the opening bell with no thought of wrestling holds In either man's head aa they bit. pulled hair, gouged eyes, kneed, and punched high, low and every where. Belcastro called out through the ropea three times In the bectlo first round lighting, on the second bounce, In the third row ringside In the Isps of two dlsmsyed women. Then It was smollnakl's turn, and he took two counta of 18 from the fourth row of spectators before he waa finally able to clamber back In the arena. Pete got the Polooka back In the ring and pressed his shoulders to the mat via several clumps to the chin with doubled-up list. That was In the first round. Smollnskl came back to grab a fall in the second stanza, with no change In ring tactica on either wrestler's part.
