"Grey Mask" Wins Rassling
Go Over "Blood and Guts"
Before a capacity crowd at the
armory laai iiiiii, itic anvuti
"Grey Mask" took the final hal:
f A HntiMn main f'rnt hv fm.
ploying his favorite head konks
and cannonballs to "Blood and
Guts" Davidson, The Mask
knew he had been some place,
however, as Dave gained the
first fall with a back-breaker,
followed by a body press. "Blood
and Guts" tried repeatedly to
tear the hood off the face of the
Mask but met with no more suc
cess than his predecessors. The
masked marvel came back to
grab the second tumble with a
number of head bulls, followed
by his famed cannonball. After
this ruKgcd treatment. Dave re
quested an additional' five min
utes to get nis bearings but the
Mask, never ready to oblige, re
fused. "Blood and outs showed
he wasn't in the marine corps
for nothing by making a came
attempt to come back, but he
was shaken up loo much and the
hooded heel took the final drOD
and the match with another cannonball.
The newcomer, Tony Ross.' up
set the dope bucket by knocking
over Joltin' Jack Klzer, the Paci
fic coast light-heavyweight king,
in the first half of the double
cm. wnen he said Tony was a
mean sort of individual, we real-
did everything but throw th
ring posts at Kizer.
Ross, a product of Oklahoma,
pinned Jack with a back-breaker
followed by a body press, to take
the first fall. Kizer returned to
even matters with some play in
the ropes followed by a body
press. The Oklahoma bad man
was not to be denied, however,
and tossed Kizer through the
ropes injuring his buck. Jack
climbed back In the ring but Ross
was waiting and took the match
with a body press.
In the opener. Herb Parks and
Tex Porter battered each other
to a draw. Tox got the nod for
the first tumble with a self
strangle hold and no fall was
gained in the second round. In
the final frame. Porter attemut-
ed to use illegal strangle holds
and Referee Wally Moss gave the
round to Parks.
This winds ud the rassllne for
this week, but there will be more
mat mayhem committed next
Friday, same time, same place,
with another red hot card on
deck.
