April 20, 193S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE WETS o BONNIE BARTLETT GERRY HUNTER Bonnie Bartlett, Former Boxer, Rough Mat Stylist Gerry Hunter, who prefers to go as far outside the book of rules as she can in her wrest ling bouts, will have a partner who also goes in for the rough stuff when she teams with Bon nie Bartlett at Merrick's arena Saturday night. They will face Jean Elbon and Shirley Winters in a tag match, slated for 30 minutes or two out of three falls. Miss Bartlett, who is. 23 years old and weighs 165 pounds, is a former professional boxer and occasionally relies on a hefty wallop to subdue her mat foes.

The curvaceous St. Paul, Minn., lass spent five years in the boxing ring during which time she engaged in 43 regula tion fights and numerous gym nasium battles. Although she frequently turns rough, Miss Bartlett has mastered the fine points of wrestling and favors the hammerlock and body slam as fall-producing maneuvers. She is hot on the trail of Mil dred Burke for a world's cham pionship match and says she will meet all comers to prove her claim to such a bout. Promoter Mack Lillard has carded two men's matches to round out a full program.
