Following last Thursday's match in which he lost to the Detroit Negro on a foul, Bclcas tro told Lillard he would never wrestle in Medford again be cause of the raw deal he figured he received. However, Lillard went to Weed, Calif., home of Belcastro, yesterday and talked Pete into the rematch. Belcastro stipulated use of another referee, disqualifying either Wally Moss or Norval Stockstill. Lillard was searching yesterday for a third man. Jones readily accepted the bout, Lillard said, saying he found Bclcastro easier to whip than he had expected and added he could lick the Weed Italian "every day of the week." Angelo Martinclli and Ben Sherman, who put on a spectacu lar match last week with Mar tinclli gaining a one-fall win, will again tangle in the opener, at the request of fans. Lillard said he was trying to find a top-notch foe for the Grnv Mask in the other half of the double main event. BEST IN LEAGUE San Francisco.

Humidity can be resulated in this cold room, too. And, if tests require a wind, anything from gentle lephyr to a howling gale of 40 miles per hour can be created. Creating their own weather conditions en ables John Deere englneets to test ideas and conduct experiments that ore of vital im portance to the John Deere owner. Here it is possible to check and recheck, adjust and re adjust until there is no doubt as to the per formance of John Deere under cMieme weather conditions.. Of first importance is the matter of lubrica tion when the motor is cold. Will there be resid ual lubrication enough to protect gears and operating parts until the cold oil in the crank case is heated enough to circulate freely? Add this phase of John Deere research to all the other tests and trials conducted by the planning and experimental departments, and the answer is simple nothing is left to chance or theory. All the ingenuity and experience of tiained enjineers have been brought to bear on the main objective to turn out a tractor that will operate successfully under all conditions and give a maximum of economical, depend aWe service to the farmer.
