Antonc Leone, the Bronx
bombshell, won a victory over
Otis "Baby-face" Kllngman last
night In the main tussle on Pro
moter Mack Llllard'a crunch
curd, but a little bit of every
thing happoncd.
Gorgeous Gaorge Wagner,
who refuses to don his elaborate
robes for anything but main
event, became enraged when
Hcferat Wally Moss awarded
I be lost fall and match to Milt
Olscn In the scmi-wlndup tiff.
V'agncr stormed at the referee,
timekeeper and the crowd and
refused to leave the ring.
About this time Kllngman and
Leone arrived for their scuffle,
but Georgo still persisted In his
vehement arguments to all
and sundry. Leone apparently
thought It time for George to
leave, so he picked up stool
and caressed Wagner over the
dome. This method very defi
nitely put the chill to Gorgeous
George and he was through for
the evening, but Leone wasn't.
Klingmon promptly went
after Leone and took the first
fall with a body press. After
that the situation got a bit out
of control with Leone gouging,
choking, and employing
smother hold. These unique tac
tics finally resulted with Leone
applying a reverse surfboard
that air but dislocated Kling
man's arms to take the second
fall and even the count. Kllng
man's arm was obviously In
jured and Referee Wally Moss
awarded the bout to Leone when
it was apparent that Otla was
In no shape to continue hostili
ties. In the seml-wlndup, Wagner
surprised everyone, Including
himself, by rassllng clean for a
few minutes, but It was too
much to ask of Georgia to keep
it up and he reverted to his old
methods. Olsen put up a good,
game fight against the heavier
Wagner and took the fracas on
Moss' decision.
In the opener, Kenny Ackles,
who always seems to win M
bouts through the referee, was
awarded a victory over Jock
"Buck" Lipscomb after Jack
