Lois Stew- art of the News ana Herein stair herewith presents her report on last night's bouts, the first as 'she says that she had ever seen.) By IOIS STEWART i Fire wrestlers and a masked .. marvel last night romped all over ; a roped-in area called a mat. pur ; sued each other, wrapped each oth ar around their necks and broke ,' arms, legs and backs to the tune of the cat-calls of an enthusiastic audience. The evening ended with . a highly Insulted Mlssourlan who j wanted to take the audience and : . Promoter Mack Llllard, one by ' on. f This was the first wrestling match we'd ever seen. After It 5 was all over we figured out that each of the six performers had a 5 specialty a particular feature f' that they put on just like your fav ? orlte dessert recipe that you spring on company. -. Secret's Advantage 'j W walked Into the armory ex it pectlng anything. We got it I "j The main event, served on top , of a dish of preliminaries, had "The Secret" as one half the sand- ' wlch, and Red Lyons, the "Joplln : Ghost," the other, i The 8ecret had one advantage r over the Ohost. You couldn't pull his hair. In other words his mask covered his entire head. Maybe t you've noticed him on his bicycle around town. The bicycle habit i- certainly gave him a nice pair of ,? legs, and they came to his rescue more times than we could eou-t. ? The' Ohost pranced out. after snubbing the whole crew, tip-toed through Imaginary tulips after The ) Secret. After a few head locks -.' and arm holds. The Secret started In on his specialty with which it seems he has delighted past fans. ' , but he didn't get around to It. . ; Couple In Midriff While he was grappling with The Ohost, Lyons popped him a t couple In the midriff. Apparently i Red had aeen The Secret In action ' and steered clear of this so-called specialty which ends up with a break across the back of his knee, Several times the Mlssourlan had powerful headlocks, which I were his specialty along with e: aocklng The Secret In the middle :' with his knee as he broke from ' the ropes, bnt The Marvel's legs which he used In speedy perfec- ' tlon, brought him out of many a -; tight spot. Not more than three minutes af ter the bout started Red got a body . scissors on The Masked Bicyclist, :-, a tew twists and turns, and Red broke with a punch In the middle. A spilt second later The Secret :. pinned one on Red, and the Ghost scrambled tor the ropes. This was ; the first time he made for a safety i tone, but not the last. Between j his punches and sticking his neck through the lines, he built up a defense which he used when things ., got too hot Short Ride .' The Secret took Red for a short ride with a head scissors and an ." arm lock, but when the Missouri ;. carrot top bit the Masked Marvel .' they broke, and mighty fast. Ap T parently a Mlssourlan can bite r home. A good play for the audience i was the rolling hammerlock and I head scissors which The Secret wrapped around Lyons, rolling over the mat in what seemed to as j. a reducing act. Lyons apparently 1 hadn't gone in for this rolling since j last Easter, and he found himself pinned to the mat with the referee. .' a Medforlte named Yoaklev, hold ' Ing up The Secret's arm. A fall lor the Masked Marvel. The Joplin Ghost, not aulte so , ghostlike in his footwork as when he first entered the square, brought on a headlock which The Secret broke In a hurry. He was auick on the break, but not quick enough to miss one of the Mis aourian's fast knee punches which ' lodged home. Fancy Combination From then on, until Red took a fall out of The Secret, the crowd was treated to a fancy eombina- I tlon of headlocks. armlocks and ? more knee punches. The Secret (. looked as If he were about to tell A Horn Owner Hat Wif and Thr Children J. D. BAGLEY DEMOCRATIC Nomination for CONSTABLE Linkville District Served on City Council Two Years ' ii ai. St J. o. infer all after that fall, and ha took a longer time to refresh himself than he did earlier In the game, A bit of dirty work was the un doing of the Missouri Ohost who scrambled to the ropes with The Secret. As the referee broke the pair, Red passed another knee punch to the middle. The Secret pursued Red, who took him over to the ropes again, and with that move The Secret was given the bout when Red fouled the Masked Marvel In an attempt to break his leg over the ropes. The crowd was neatly pleased with the decision, but the Missouri Red Head stood In the middle of the n.at and howled like a baby. He was a poor loser. It seemed. Appetiser The last we heard he was weep ing through the corridors to his dressing room "Mack Llllard can't do this to me." Kids learn better manners when they play "Drop the Handkerchief." As an appetiser to the main event Mack Llllard presented Lef ty Pacer and Tony Garibaldi. Pa cer bad on a pair of blue trunks and Garibaldi wore black. Black Pants was by far the favorite. His specialty was a aeries of toe holds and leg bends while Blue Pants puffed and panted around the ring like the last Tarsan show we saw. Pacer Wins First Pacer won the first fall In the fourth round with a Boston crab hold, which looks like a mixture of anybody's legs and arms, but also appears most effective. j Tony broke through the blue with a surfboard hold, which looks like It sounds, in the sixth round, and Yoakley called a draw on the two as the match ended. "Bobby" Chick, 186-pounder from Cheyenne, and a brother of the well known "Dude" Chick, met Floyd Britt, 197 pounds from Lo- ray, Has., In the second match. There seemed to be a lot of mid west talent that couldn't quite come up to the western standards of fighting. Britt b Villain The two boys, who were well on their way to becoming baldheaded, waltsed Into a beadlock. It was Britt who appeared the villain in this bout, and he politely looked up to the purple and white paper streamer! when Chick offered his hand. Neither Chick nor Britt seemed to be so noisy In their manipula tions as the first bout. They start ed in with a little more steam, and they put on a demonstration that was mixed up with rabbit punches, nuckle rubs, airplane spins and arm breaks, which seemed to be Britt'a specialty. Chick stuck to the spins and rabbit punches, which gave htm the bout. These rabbit punches ar pretty hard to watch. They must be timed pretty well, too, and Chick seemed to hare that down to a sci ence, with Britt laying himself open for a lot of rabbit punches that didn't seem to .hare any bun ny bugs about them. They just pop. Knows His Ropes The Kansas farmer sure knew his ropes. He scrambled over time and again, and it looked tor a while as If he and Referee Yoak ley were going to go at It. Britt took the first fall In the second round. Chick came back In the fourth round to cop the second fall and the wind-up when he caught Britt unawares, threw him on his shoul ders, face np, and went Into an airplane spin that dizzied specta tors aa well aa the Kansan, who was thrown on the mat with a dull thud. Chick walked off with a smirk, challenging the winner of the main event. Whatever the mood . of the crowd. It seemed satisfied with the card that Llllard gave, the whip ped cream on the cake being Red Lyons' loud protests of his treat ment which could be heard from the armory down to Link river bridge. What constitutes a foul In a wrestling match, outside of rub bing a fellow's foot or head against the ropes while the referee Isn't looking; punching with the fiat instead of the elbow, which would n't hurt half as much anyway; pulling hair which was only done In the first round with the young er tousled-head fighters, or trying to stretch the elastic in the fight er's trunks? It's still a mystery to me! KANSAS CITY. May 18 (AP) Jack Bergman Irtis entered col legiate baseball's hall of fame.

Melton tired and loaded the sacks with none out In the twelfth but Dick Coffman. peer of the re lief pitchers, staged a successful rescue. Then the Giants went on to win when Bryant, who had re lieved Carleton, suddenly faded and let Mel Ott reach second on a pass and sacrifice. Leslie, sent in to hit against Jack Russell, came through with the blow that scored Ott. The one-hit pitching feats cam from Russ Batters of Pittsburgh, who lost to the Boston Bees, 1-0. and thereby qualified for the seo ond rank of hard-luck guys; and rijlop mil Mrr.ea of 'thrt St. Louis Cardinals, who beat Brook lyn 2-1.
