The Cavemen forged into an early lead but Central Point came from behind to hold a 12 to 9 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Both Johnson and Belcastro are masters of the deadly surf board hold and the match looms as a battle to see who gets who In the fall-producer, Johnson, while he likes his grappling to go along the straight and nar row is not beyond clipping his foe on the whiskers if he asks for It as the Weed Assassin Is sure to do. Promoter Mack Lillard again called attention to the fact that the main event will be for six ten-minute rounds instead of the straight time limit as used In the past for top bouts. Jack Klser, loser in his last two armory tussles, will collide with Terrible Tony Ross In the semi-wlndup. The winner can be practically assured of a main event clash, probably a future date with the Mask. Lou Bellaveau, a newcomer, goes against clever Milt Olson In the opener, going to the mat at 8:30 promptly.
