if LipscombTop Over Foe At Armory Here Falling for a trick almost as old as the wrestling profession cost Buck Davidson his grudge match with Jack Lipscomb at the armory last night. The struggle, which was as rough as a rasp, failed to live up to the majority of the customers' expectations for wildness. Although Davidson tried most of the time to make his bigger foe wrestle, Lipscomb would have none of It and preferred to use his first and other tactics unbecoming a gentleman wres tler. The first fall went to Lips comb when Davidson yelled "un cle" from a half crab hold. Da vidson evened it via a toe hold but that was the last spurt for the favorite. Wrestlers Entangled The gladiators became en tangled in a cradle hold and neither would let loose. Referee Earl Yoaklev. who had been mauled considerably several times during the fracas, refused to interfere and left them to work it out as best they could, and that's what cost Davidson the match. Lipscomb offered a handshake to break the hold and Davidson accepted, releasing his grip. Lips comb, however, failed to let go lnd flipped Davidson into an other half crab for the final fall. Georges Dusette and Lee Gra bel each took a fall in a sparkling struggle. It was as clean as Mon day morning's wash and faster than lightning. It was by far the best match on the card. Leo Wallick Introduced a vicious piledriver Which took the measure of Billy Fox in the opener.
