There was a wild melee which took both grapplers all over the ring and when the smoke settled Dusette had a full nelson on the former coast champion. Stojack knowing it was useless to at tempt to break Dusette's power- iui grip, yenea uncle. The French-Canadian made several tries to again apply the hold, but Stojack was too cagey. Dusette turned to headlocks to attempt to soften the former grid star and that was the pay- vx iui oiujuciv. oe wnippea Dusette into the roDes and when the Hercules came off, he was atop Stojack's shoulders and the merry-go-round started.

Promoter Mack Lillard said he will bend every effort to find someone tough enough to coDe with Wallick for one of the spots on next weens card. , In a honey of a grappling con test, Charley Carr, a veteran of the squared circle, bested clever Uanno McDonald in the opener.
