Dutch Leahman Beats Hes

To ali intenss and purposes Billy
Edwards. the deadlock king. Is a
better man than George Craig. the
wrestling blacksmith. and Jack
Mitchell. the rough and ready
referee.
But that means nothing SO far
IS popularity goes. for last night
Edwards was booed 70 the skies by
the customers ard then was charg-
Cd With simple assault this morning
IN Justice OF the Peace Fred

Referee Mitchell had consider

on him and landed a vicious wal

knocked cold and had TO be taken
from the ring In a heap. Ernest
Stephens re~sreed the remainder of
the bout-and there was no rough
stuff.
Friday morning the county at
torney's office filed a charge OF
simple assault against Edwards and
a deputy sheriff dispatched to find
the sideburn adorned grappler.
Dutch Leahman took two straight
falls from jim Heslin. For once
the fans were with Leahman as the
