At MAT MATCH
BY GEORGIA. SIMPSON

Such a slight setback as faint
ing couldn't keep Miss Helen
Showalter, seeing the first wrest-
ling match in her life, from the
finish of the Chief White Feather
George TragoS battle which stir
red more than 5000 spectators at
the Washington Auditorium last
night.
AS White Feather and Tragos
tore at each other and punched
freely, Miss Showalter became
so excited at this display Of fire
works that she tainted. She was
carried from the orchestra and
1t was q few minutes before she
was revived. Asked if she wished
to go home, Miss Showalter re-
piled:
"Oh, no, 1 want to see the
remainder of this match. It's
the first time I've seen WreSt-
lerS and guess got too ex-
cited. Just. let me take little
walk outside to get some fresh
air and then I'm going back
in there again. 1 don't want
to miss the finish"
Miss Showalter reentered the
hall as Referee Bennie Bortnick
was parting the embittered bat
tiers, telling them that the 80
minutes was up, the bout end
ing in o draw. Miss Showalter
says she won't miss any future
wrestling shows at the Auditor
ium.
Referee Borthick lost 10 pounds
during the White-Feather-Trago
scuffle. He was as winded as the
tanglers, having spent much
energy in separating them from
their brutal grips. Once. Bort

such an increase Is distinctly unfa-

the persistent increase In output of the
