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

BRITISH SKIPPER'S WIFE
RETAINS VICTORY HOPE
By MABV ELIZABETH Pl.lMMER
OTEWPORT, It, I. Aug. 3 J (AP) Blonde Phyllis Sopwlth. wile of the
skipper of Endeavour If, said after the second defeat of the British sloop,
"Ranger went like a train."
Nobody minds being beaten by a.
better boat." said Mrs. Sopwltb. who
sails In each race as her husband's
timekeeper In the America's cup se
ries off Newport.
The series, she added quickly, la
not over "one always has hopes to
the laat breath.'
In the lounge of their palatial
yacht Phllante, named for ber ana
the Sopwlths' 6-year-old son, Thomas
Edward, she said of the race
"We"re not a bit unhappy about
It. It would be a pretty poor sport
who dldnt say to the victor "Jolly
good luck to you.'"
Bagpipes the Sopwlths dinner
music skirled on pniiante's nngntiy
lit deck. There wsa gay laughter
aboard, as Sopwltb and his wife
dined wltb their ten yacht guests.
Skipper Sopwlth's wife Is a tall,
graceful woman with fair Engllsn
coloring, gold-blonde balr and blue
eyes. All day she bad sailed In a
plain white linen "boiler ault" like
the rest of Endesvour II's crew, with
a dsrk blue beret on her hair. The
worst part of racing Is what It does
to your hslr, she said. The sun
strikes It and It gets full of salt.
She described herself as "a very
Insignificant member of Endeavour
lis afterguard." but In fact she's
active every minute of the race.
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.
"I call the time twenty minutes
before the start," she explained,
"then ten minutes, and from ten
to five I give him every minute. At
five, I start giving every half min
ute."
When the aloop gets off on time,
her Job lan't over, During the race
she watches the other boat and tells
her husband what's being done, and
what sails are going up.

a successful week-end with nice
catches each doy. Elmo Oleson of
Talt, Calif., left after a two weeks'
stay during which he caught fish
each day, Including several limits.
Considering the Improvement of the

Peace! The "picket fence" surrounding San Fran
cisco hotels has been torn down by the mutual
and friendly action of operators and employees.
Throughout the strike we remained on the best

truce, but an agreement covering four years.
Thus we are now free to build to an even higher
