Hollis Holds Chick Even In Hour-Long Battle
FEATURE BOUT
E
Champion Unable to Pin
Ozark Ruffian; Lott,
LaRance Win
A lot of people thought Cow
boy Dude Chick, the world Junior
heavyweight champion, would win
his main event wrestling match
with Ken Hollis at the armory
last night In a breeie, and a lot
of people were surprised, if not
disappointed.
Don't gather from that that
Cowboy Dude Chick lost his
match. He didn't. But although
he was far sorrier to see hostili
ties end than waa his adversary
and although he would have been
-satisfied and perhaps pleased to
have matters continue a bit
longer, he still tailed to win.
"Moral" Victory
In short, it was a draw, a draw
over the one-hour distance with
neither aide scoring a touchdown
or even a field goal.
The outcome was a distinct suc
cess for Brother Hollis. a moral
victory, as It were, if Brother
Hollis haa any morals left. Every
body knew he waa rough and
ornery and Intractable, but no
bodyor at leaat very few of the
crowd of 1800 or so which packed
the armory to the rafters
thought he could stand up against
the type of opposition ottered by
the champion.
And yet he did. definitely. Fur
thermore he didn't benefit by
facing Chick on a so-called oft
otght. Champ Look Good
The champ never looked better.
He waa In top condition, slender,
fast and more versatile than ever.
He didn't waste motion, either,
or allow himself to be over-burdened
by scruple. He was con
atantly pitching In and trying his
best to flatten the bull of the
Otarka by whatever means pre
sented themselves. But he didn't
flatten the bull of the Otarks, not
once In an hour's time.
If wrestling had been boxing
and there had been a referee and
two judges to render a decision on
points one way or the other.
Chick probably would have re
ceived the verdict.
Always on Offensive
He was almost always on the
offensive and applied the more
punishing holds. In fact, techni
cally speaking, practically the
only holds. At one time, toward
the end, he appeared to have
Hollis completely on the run with
headlocks. front headlocks, re
verse headlocks, knuckle head
locks, flip headlocks.
But the dread Arkansan fought
himself clear of that crisis, rest
ing, weaving, staggering, retreat
ing, and a moment before the
finish was back In there again,
lagging away at the champion.
And thus It ended.
Previously both wrestlers had
tried repeatedly for their special
ties without success. Hollis' leg
breaker toraya collapsed with-

out exception when Chick used his
free leg to oreck the Arkansas on
the chin, and Chick's alrplaue
spins constantly wound up In a
knot when Hollis grabbed tor the
ropes and hung on tenaciously.
Rematch Possibility
So the cowboy. If he wanta to
keep his armory record clear, is
faced with the necessity of spend
ing another uncomfortable eve
ning in the company of the mill
unrepenlent hillbilly, and Hollis,
if he hopes to immortalise his feat
of staying the distance with the
champion, must again risk life
and limb In the presence of Mr.
Chick.
In the seml-wlndup Jimmy Lott
gained satisfying revenge over
Terrible Ted Christy, although he
was forced to underso some tick
lish moments In the process.
He achieved the first step in
his vengeance venture at the start
of the second round by crossing
up Christy In what the latter ap
parently Intended to be a fright
fully clever maneuver.
Terrihle Teddy stole from his
corner before the rest period was
over and while Lott still had his
back turned. Lightly as lightly
anyhow as his 304 pounds would
permit he leaped across the ring
toward his antagonist.
Crabhold Pays Off
Suddenly, as If he had been
peeking and seen the whole pro
cedure. Lott turned. Not only
turned but lunged out with a fly
ing tackle (hat caught Christy
square amidships. Two more
doses of the same, and the long
hatred Los Angeleno was down.
Down, maybe, but certainly not
ont, for at the start of the sub
sequent session he came back
with fury and In 2:14 had pinned
Alabama Jimmy via the Boston
crabhold route.
Christy pursued his ferocious
tactics in the fourth stansa,
pounding Lou's still sore back
with both fists, tossing the Ala
baman out of the ring and kick
ing him again and again to the
floor when he sought to clamber
back onto the canvas.
LaRance Toeholds Count
As pollyanna said, however,
things are always darkest before
the dawn, and after the umpteenth
trip to the cement, Lott suddenly
hurtled head first through the
ropes, nicked Christy at the spot
where the beam is broadest and
wound up in 1:34 with the
third and deciding fall.
In the opener Leo Newman of
Calgary kept Speedy LaRance of
Montreal at bay long enough to
grab the first tumble with a crab
hold. but thereafter the western
Canadian's fortunes ebbed rapidly.
In a flat two minutes of the
third round Newman had fallen
victim to LaRance's excruciating
splderweb toe hold. Fourteen sec
onds of the fourth period was all
LaRance needed to produce an
other splderweb and victory.
Games To Be
Held in Tokyo
Despite War
CAIRO, Egypt, March 1 (AP)
The international Olympics con
gress definitely announced today
the 1940 Olympics would beheld
In Tokyo, September 9 to Octo
ber 26.
The proposal by the Chinese
delegate. Dr. C. T. Wang, that
the games not be held in any
country at war was rejected.
The congress accepted Japan's
suggestion, supported by Italy
and Germany, that the games be
held later In the year due to the
heat and humidity prevalent at
the end of August, the original
date.
The United States, France and
Great Britain voted against this
alteration.
The congress demanded, how
ever, that Tokyo's 1940 interna
tional exhibition be closed a
month prior to the opening of
the Olympics.
A communique Indicated that
Wang's request did not come to
a vote. It merely said that In
view of assurances Tokyo waa
able to prepare to hold the
games and the Olympic charter,
the congress was "unable to
consider" the request to hold
the games elsewhere.
