It wilt be another one of those
"grudge" affairs when Toots Estes and
Marshall Carter take off In the main
grappling bout tomorrow evening un
der the stars at the high school arena.
Although both are extremely clean
and scientific wrestlers, an occurrence
In the Klamath Falls ring lost Tues
day night may have the effect of
turning one or both Into savage vil
lains, bent on destroying the other
with little wasted time.
Facing Danny savich In the main
event at Klamath Falls, Estes sud
denly went berserk after absorbing
untold punishment irom dirty Dan
ny, and blasted him Into the second
row ringside with a thundering drop-
kick. Then, turning to Marshall Car-
Per, who was refereeing the squabble,
he proceeded to batter the official
out of the ring for no apparent rea
son. For fully five minutes the lnfor
luted Estes held sole spossesston of
the ring despite the best efforts of
both Savich and Carter to return
Every time either would stick his head
through the ropes, Estes would cut
loose with a foot-punch, Finally Car
ter, who bad stood enough of the
business, awarded the fall and match
to savich. That aot sent Estes Into
hysterics and he vowed to the heav
ens that he would some day get even
with Carter for disqualifying him
And, he gets bis chance tomorrow
night.
Wild Man In, who Is wild enough
but who has shown about as much
ability as a cucumber, faces Sailor
Dick Trout In the opening event. The
squabble will be sort of a final chance
for Zlmmy. Promoter Llllard, pretty
fed up with the long-haired one's at
tempts to win himself a match, has
Intimated strongly that If "Gertrude"
doesn't come through with a rousing
win tomorrow night, he better pock
ms panues and do up his blonde,
curly hair and be off.
Sailor Trout, a hardy man of the
sea whose home Is San Diego, la con
sidered to have plenty of what It
takes to speed the departure of Zlm
my. The popular gob. who is a cleanle
until tested beyond all human en
durance, has been absent for several
weeks. He will be welcomed with open
arms by the local grapple crowd.
Dirty, Dangerous Danny Savich. who
still hangs around despite the wishes
of all and sundry that he would take
his villainous tactics somewhere else,
will meet Bobby Wagner, the New
Hampshire sensation, In the middle
bout. Wagner whipped Zlm and Sav
ich lost to Carter last week, and Pro
moter Llllard figures the two are
about a tossup. Wagner Is a cleanle
however, and will undoubtedly receive
plenty of pressure from the horrid
Savich.
