It waa news to Pete, however, that ha had lost and the ending was equally unsatisfactory for the fans. Before the deciding fall, Pete and Red held a tumble apiece. After 13 mlnutea of general mauling around for the third and deciding fall, Pete bounced Red's cbln off the ropes a couple - of times and then damped on a body preas. Referee Earl Yoakley counted off three seconds and patted Belcastro on the back as a signal he had won the tumble. Then Yoakley noticed that Lyons had a leg dangling over a rope and he motioned that the match wasn't over after all. Not having eyes In the back of his hesd Belcastro didn't see that Yoakley had erased the fall. Pete let loose of the Joplln Ghost and started walking away. Lyons hopped up, olouted Pete on the back of the head, knocked him down and Jumped on him for the fall. Lyons took the first fall In 16 min utes of rough grappling. He set Pete up with a eerlea of punches and then clamped on a Japanese leg strap. Belcastro quickly gave up. Belcaatro opened up after the rest period and kept Red on the defensive with sonnenbergs and boby punches. After wearing the hefty Lyons down with these maneuvers, Pete took the fall with a shoulder stand. He won the tumble In 11 minutes. In the middle event Ssckeye Jack McDonald took two out of three falls from Frankle Schroll. McDonald won the first fall In the second round with a back breaker Into which he maneuvered from a side stripper. Schroll took the second fall In the fourth round with a rolling leg split end Sockeye won the deciding fall in the fifth canto with a Boston crab. After a few weeks of cream-puff wrestling, McDonald turned tough again last night and kept Schroll at a safe distance with hefty punches. The eockeye had a olever way of rolling himself Into a ball to keep out of Prankle'a paralyzing crocodile clutch. Rusty Nescott, scheduled to make his first appearance here, failed to show up and Bobby Wagner went to the post In his place against Cecil McOlll. Wagner was suffering from a bad arm and McOlll worked on It to take two quick falls, winning a tumble In the first and second rounds. Promotor Mack Llllard announced today that Ladles' . Night would be observed again next Monday. This means that anyone who buys a ticket, man or woman, may teke in a woman guest free of chsrge.

In Its too -often fatal as sumption that a man Is a stump, the wild turkey, without pause, concludes "that stump Is a man," as he turkey trots quietly from the scene. Despite their wariness, however, death has overtaken the several hundred wild turkeys which the WPA historical records survey reveals as having been Introduced Into Oregon some 12 years ago. In 1926. 68 turkeys, of Virginia wild stock, were set free In Curry county, at which time a smaller num ber of the same variety was released In Jackson, Jefferson, and Polk coun ties. Later the birds were set free In Josephine, Coos, and Marlon coun ties. In the lsst nsmed county they are said to have thrived particularly weu. Between October 1, 1928, and Sep tember 30, 1929, as many as 333 wild turkeys were liberated by the State Game oommlsslon In Oregon's woods. At that time sportsmen looked for ward optimistically to good turkev- shootlng within three or four years. Aicnougn no open season was ever declared, the birds are now reported to be extinct.
