Chick tried for the spin five times in the third round, twice managing to flip Joe into the giant ring llghtshadc. He got his favored hold curly in the fourth but Lynam grabbed the ropes and slid out into the press sec tion on the first go-round. Dude Chick evidently didn't like the ringside photographer because twico more he heaved Lynam at the cameraman. Joo would mutter, "I'm sorry," and clamber back into the ring ior more. Wally Moss, the referee, with official aid came out on top of the semi-final. He awarded the bout to Bob Kcnoston after two rounds and Stove Pctroll didn't like it a bit. Ho swung on Wally in the ring, chased him to the shower room where the battle raged. An enthusiastic spectator, who didn't like the decision either, olso joined in and the city gen darmes waded in to quell the riot. The spectator was given a heave and the fight stopped. Gloomy Gust Johnson and the shaved-lre a d e d, be-whiskcred Red (Curly) Dawson grappled to a tie in the opener. Johnson took the first flop with a leg strap and the ruffianly Dawson got his with a straight arm bar. Erickson Chosen Willamette Coach PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 15 (P) President G.
