BARRATT'S CHAPEL ANNIV SARY
By Roscoe Campbell
By Roscoe Campbell

1t is dear old Barratt's Chapel
We are thinking of today,
Where a multitude of people
Soon will travel on their way.
There is something in the glory
Of that old historic shrine
That will set our hearts to singing
With note that is divine.
It's the place where Methodism
In its infancy began;
In the cradle of its childhood
Rocked by an Almighty hand.
Where two preachers, sent by Wesley,
Met and organized church,
Then went out with earnest passion
For the souls of men to search.
Since that day this sanctuary
Has proclaimed the message clear
That John Wesley and his preachers
Were resounding far and near.
And its doors are ever open;
You may always come and dine
At the table Of the Master
In this dear old sacred shrine

LONDOS COMPLETE
MASTER OF DUSEK
Displays Vast Superiority at

FINALLY demonstrating to the full
H satisfaction Of the largest sports

who thought they knew all arout
rassling. very much wiser.
Those who witnessed the first two
matches between this pair here thought
Mr.. LondoS had to resort 10 unfair
tactics, If possible in raSsling, to down
Rudy. The local fans clamored for q
third meeting. They got 1t. Also they
got an inkltng Of what the title claimant
can do when he is in q hurry.
Lohdos clipped seven minutes on the
time of the two previous bouts but
1t wasn't the time that impressed last
nights throng and earned Londog q
big cheer, He demonstrated such a
vast superiority over DuSek without
using hts Japanese neck lock" to COM
plete the fan that the crowd gave the
impression that they appreciated all
this revelation and the difference be-
tween q rassler who makes a million
and a half a year to one who knocks
down only" 100000.
AS usual, LondoS permitted Dusek to
start things He offered Rudy his arm
and Dusek massaged 1t for five min
utes while the crowd went wild Londos
merely rested ON his back until Rudy's
tugs began to lose their enthusiasm.
After 30 minutes OF rolling and
climbing In and out OF the ropes jimmy
again offered his arm. While Rudy
tired himself out Jimmy relaxed. Then
he rose and with q matter of-fact ex-
preston on his face. ended things. The
time was 81 minutes.
Jim evidently was business man
enough to know a fourth Londos- Dusek
match wouldn't draw flies. so last nights
battle lacked the zip of the first two
Jim probably was right-ell of
Curleys genius and all Of his men
couldn't bring Dusek and Loneos to-
gether again-not in Washington.
The preliminarieS failed 10 register
with the fans. Jim Mcnamara opened
proceedings by tossing the antiquated
Jack Burke In l6 minutes.
George Zaharis won the boo" cham
pionship by outlining Son Jennings
after % minutes. Then old "Toots"
Mondt and Kola Kwariana, two cue
balls" rassled TO an unnecessary draw
that was mercifuny modified to 20 min
utes instead of the usual 80. Karl
Potello gave Babe Caddock q lesson in
a bout which lasted lS minutes. The
$4,000 poured out when Doc Wilson
fiipped Lou Plummer in Is minutes.
