minute Dallas had been forced off

Huber, who did a good Job through

Turner had forced Dallas out Of

the entire match. 1t was always
Turner who showed the greater

take advantage Of small things.

Last year We had one Of the

But watch us this year. We were

and things look bright. Every
player who thinks he is entitled

The Arlington club is showing
lots Of enterprise, but there IL a
club over in northeast which, in a
way, has gone the Virginians one,
and perhaps a couple, better. This
Is by way Of introducing the Peer
less A. c.
One particularly distinctive thing
about the Peerless A. c. is its
business manager, George A. Simp-
son, distinguished by a pair of long
legs and a remarkable willingness
to use them. Where the Peerless

places on the clubs two teams, and
Simpson claims this is the largest
flock of candidates to be boosted OF

are sixteen men trying for pitching

He gives the following list OF
candidates: Pitchers, Walton, Bah

merlock. He wrenched Dallas left
arm wickedly. doing his best to
tear II away from the shoulder.
However, Dallas had a lot of power
and broke hold after hold just when
II seemed that he was doomed to
have his shoulders pinned to the
floor.
Struggling like demons in the
middle Of the ring, Turner sudden
ly clamped down a body scissors and
flattened Dallas out like a pancoke.
In less than a minute the Greek
was declared down by Referee Huber
and the Turner contingent shouted
in glee.
Just before tho men were to
take the mat for the third fall,
Dallas clambered through the
ropes and entered . claim of In
jury. He explained that he had
either broken or dislOcated his
left arm. An uproar ensued Mt

the dumbbells, go on and wres-

Some bright lad howled for a doc.
tor. In a fifty three eminent saw
bones made their way into the ring
and gave the Greeks arm a rapid
examination. Then they took a vote
and two were for Dallas to con-
tinue and one against. The ayes
had 1t.
In a wild bedlam Referee Huber
calmly removed his coat and pro-
ceeded to have the wrestlers finish
the match. He said that, with two
doctors seeing no apparent injury
and one seeing some signs OF hurt,
he would have the men finish the
match. 1t was 80 ordered.
Naturally that third fall amount
cd to nothing. Turner went right
for that wounded flipper and, with
both men standing on their feet, he
sought to twist and wrench the
arm right off his rival. Dallas nat.
urally stopped and Referee Huber
declared Turner the victor.
With the match ending thus
abruptly there was much grumbling
from the fans. Some said that
Dallas deliberately quit. Some said
that Turner had been tipped off
that Dallas had a sore left arm
and that the veteran went after It,
which Is no crime in wrestling
whatsoever.
As . matter Of fact, Turner
defeated Dallas fairly. The Of.
ficiating was all one could de-
sire. The Cleveland man. suffer-
ing an injury to his arm, cannot
complain ut losing the match.
