IN II ITCHES
The Jones boys of Arkan-ias Mike,
Tony and Tuffy gave a capacity
crowd at the Medford armory last
night one of the most sensational
wrestling progiams of the year, and
although they didn't make a clean
aweep of their matches with Floyd
Drltt, Cecil McGlll and Frankle
Schroll they consider the evening a
huge success In every respect. They
won two out of the throe brawls,
and In two short hours won their
way Into the heart of every giap-
pllng an who saw them per term.
They really have what It takes.
Twenty-two-ycar-old Mike, the
baby of the family, was the only
one to taste defeat. He fell before
the vicious arm-breaking assault of
dirty Floyd Brltt in the opening
event, but even In this caso the
Family of Jones didn't end exactly
behind the eight ball. Alter the
match was over and as Brltt was
about to enter the dressing icom,
big Brother Tony partly avenged lit
tle Brother Mike by walloping Brl:t
acrosa the back of the neck. Brltt
squealed and wasted no time In
putting the dressing room door be
tween him and big Brother Tony,
thus averting a Hot and making it
practically a unanimous decision for
the Jones family, from beginning to
end.
In the middle event, Tony grabbed
two straight falls from McGlll, and
:n the climax bout, Tuffy powered
out a two out of three fall victory
over Frankle Schroll. , -
Mike, lithe as a tiger and more
active, lost to the Brltt villain be
cause he couldn't fathom the lat
ter'a devastating arm and neck
breakers over the ropes. Brltt poured
It on for two rounds, and then took
falls lu the third and four.h to
end things. At least a dozen times
Rforoe Karl Yookley attempted to
award the match to little Brother
Mike on fouls, but he would have
none of it. He preferred to stay In
there and go down battling.
Tony, weighing close to 200 pounds,
beat McOUl by virtue of plain and
simple bull atrength. In fact, Tony
is probably the strongest grappler
to ever show here. Mcaill tugged
and heaved and brought Into play
every trick he knows, but he couldn't
budge the barrel-like Tony, who
simply stood there and let McOlll
waste his sttength and enthusiasm
In trying to toss him to the car
pet. Finally, In ths third round, Tony
maneuvered around like a ten-ton
truck and applied a leg cradle hold,
for the first fall. In the fourth
round he duplicated the business for
the second fall and the match.
McQIU staged a game fight, but he
was helpless in the face of the bar-1
rel who was a man. '
Terrific, back-breaking bear hugs !
enabled Tuffy, a short, stocky sped- i
men of Arkansas hillbilly, to defeat j
Frankle Schroll In a spectacular ,
main event. Frankle, somewhat be
wildered by the unorthodox but clean :
tactics of his opponent, won the first '
fall with body slams and a press,
but Tuffy came back to literally
squeeze Schroll Into a rag doll and
win the next two tumbles. Although ,
not so powerful as bis big Brother
Tony, Tuffy merely grabbed Schroll
around the middle and pulled In.
Frankle hollered "when" to save his
back for future engagements.
The Scufflers are all clean grap
pler. and have more tricks up their
sleeves than any dozen wrestlers who

SCAIiOFLATTENS
ARCHIBALD QUICK
NEW YORK, . Dec. 8. (AP) The
featherweight championship, which
has been a wide open affair ever
since Henry Armstrong gave It up,

as champion by the New York state
athletic commission, end the Na
