The audience that witnessed th,
wrestling match between Charlie Bo
rella Viewpoints champion and James
Dallas one of Veln1ont's clevercs
mat men at Burlington last weel
were greatly dissatisfied with the re-
fierce in charge Of the match and also
of the decision awarded against
young Borella. The sporting fans
of Burlington voiced their indigna
ton at the unfair decision by asking
the management to secure a return
| bout between these two men which
will probably be held in Burlington
Saturday December 90 We feel that
Borella was defeated by the referee
and not Dallas. Local friends of Bo-
rella believe he will come back strong
and show some real class in the next
bout.
