There la no doubt about the two top squabbles they will both be downright and brutal exhibitions of the mat Industry. Although Chick is naturally a clean wrestler. Hollls won't let him get away with any scientific and lily-white stuff, and although Kenaston would prefer to grapple legitimately, Berry won't stand for such goings-on. BLANKS EAGLE PI.
