Sammy Kohen. the colorful Jew from New York city who made ftuch a large hit with fans while offlclat Ing at last Monday's grapple show, may seem a pretty small bundle to be tackling the powerful Black Dragon in next Monday's main event, but the dynamic fellow only laughed at Promoter Mack Ullard when the latter expressed doubts that he stood a chance against the sow unmasked meanle. Kohen. who two weeks ago proved that he could grapple In anybody's league, told Llllard that he could whip the Dragon any day in the week and twice on Mondays. Al though he- will be outweighed by about 20 pounds, and knows It, the beautifully built Kohen Informed Llllard point-blank that he was stronger than the Dragon. Also, that he could out-wrestle him. And,, also that he could out-smart him. In fact, Kohen can't discover any point in wnich he is inferior to the black one. The correctness of his deduc tions, will be apparent jabout 10:16 next Monday evening. Frank ie Clemens and Carlos Rod riguez, both cleanles, will meet In the middle event, and Dale Haddock and Jack LaRue, villains, will tangle In the opener. Frank le Stojack will referee. 4 ORDER REPLAY OF FINAL 3 INNINGS E President Ed Lamport of the Southern Oregon league today offi cially upheld the protest of the Med ford Cratera of the league game played at Crescent City last Sunday, and ordered a replay of the battle from the sixth Inning on.
