DRAGON TWICE BY i PARALYZER HOLD Southern Oregon's bated wrutllng raonswr the Black Dragon today has fust on little bit ol aausiao tlon regarding bis match last night at the high school arena witn Frankle Clemens, In which the lat ter maneuvered and battered bis way to a sensational two-out-oi three lall victory. The Dragon can point with pride to the fact that he. of all the grapple to taste Clemens' Indian paralyser, was able to come up tor more after having his neck caressed by the Clemens pedal extremities. Xes, the Dragon was defeated al right. He was knocked silly by an Infuriated Indian boy and sent on bis way Into alumberland by the paralyser, but he did manage to con tlnue wrestling after losing the first fall, If that's any satisfaction to him. Clemens, after 17 minutes plus of dirty action on the part of the unmasked Dragon, finally cut loose to apply bis favorite hold. The Dragon wiggled and kicked Deiore Kolng to sleep, but to sleep ne went. Everybody figured It was all over then: they lust hadn't been return ing for some time after that foot pressure applied to tneir necas. How ever, the Dragon, apparently tough er than the general run of meanies, staggered to his corner and, after a minute's rest, came thundering back to foul and batter Frankle Into the clutches of the Boston crab '. The dirt unloosed by the Drsgon during this tumble reached a new high. The previously hooded horror did everything but tear Clemens limb from limb, and when he fin ally poured on the business with the crab a sigh of relief went up from the huge crowd that Frankle's sufferings were over for the time being. Clemens did some pretty neat "coming back" himself, after that crab hold. The majority of Dragon victims are through for the evening after having their backs broken by the maneuver, but Clemens, appar ently tougher than the general run, recuperated In his corner and went out there to cop the match. He did it by virtue of belts to the chin, a couple of sensational body flips, and the Ildlan paralyser. Mr. Dragon passed out of the picture three min utes aftor the third tumble was un der way, for his third straight de feat since unmasking. Reverse leg breakers In the fourth nd fifth rounds after Jack LaRue had grabbed the first fsll In the third round gave Sammy Kohen, the colorful New York City Jew, a sur prise victory over the Kansas City mesnle. LsRue wasted little time In making It clear that he was the villain, taking the first fall with his favorite hold the hammerlock. He continued Intensive work on the weakened Kohen arm during suc ceeding rounds, but the Jew was too smart and fast. Kohen, both times, came out of hammerlocks to reverse the situation and apply the painful leg-breaker. Danny Savlch returned to the lo cal arena a changed man. Always clesn as they came, Savlch turned on the heat to navigate faills In the fourth and fifth rounds after Carlos Rodrlguea, the Mexican "hot ta male," bod won the first tumble In the second canto with a leg-breaker Savlch, while not the dirtiest to ever appear here, was, nevertheless, far from an angel. He bit, scratched, pulled hair and punched to the head with knotted fist to win an unpopular verdict. Promoter Mack LMlard announced that .Toots EsU would perform on next Monday's csrd.

She sees that the crew has Its milk and fruit for breakfast on a race day. Then she boards the aloop with her husband, ready to give him the time at the start.
