For a time it appeared that the
big graphing match would turn into
flrst-claSS free-for-a all among the
spectators. And this spontaneous
outburst, which was squelched be-
fore any serious outbreaks, provided
some red-hot excitement for the big
crowd which packed the Armory.
Both Use Elbows
1t all happened so quickly that
everybody, including the would-be
rioters, was taken by surprise. For
6212 minutes, Marshall and Steele
battled away, with more than so
minutes of the time spent on the
canvas. The boys put on the pres
sure" on the mat, both absorbing
plenty Of punishment and neither
able to clamp on a finish hold. The
tumbling, tackling and clowning
we're forgotten. Only OCCASIONALLY did
Steele break loose with his fists, but
both hammered away with elbows.
After the hour mark was passed,
Steele clamped on a strange,
much to the discomfort of both Mr..
Marshall and the customers, the
latter apparently having forgotten
the previous ruling on this hold.
With the crowd crying strange"
and urging Referee Heze Clark to
break the hold, steele decided to
give them what they wanted and
clamped on a real strange.
Melee in Corner
Referee Clark broke the hold.
When Steele persisted. Clark again
broke the hold and finally raised
the PROSTATE Marshalls hand in
victory. The Californian, dis
gruntled, started to leave the ring.
Marshall, evidently angered by
Steele's rough treatment, overlook
him in a corner and the boys broke
loose in some free-and-fancy slug
ging and kicking.
The spectators decided to join in,
and that's where the fun started.
One woman got too close and start
ed to take part, receiving a push for
her enthusiasm. Steele started for
the dressing room. and Marshall
hot-footed in pursuit. The crowd
surged in for the battle-royal, but
police, fremen and guardsmeu hus-
tied the festically-minded gladiatOrs
off to the dressing rooms. Mean
while, with fist fights breaking out
in two other sections, and a hurry
up call was sent for the riot squad.
Lectured by Feeney
But the excitement soon was
over. Al G. Feeney, state athletics
commissioner, gave the boys what
mildly might be called a lecture.
Marshall, still hostile, finally was
cooled off. Dressing room observ-
ers agreed that this post-fall battle
was the Mccoy
Returning to the ring for action,
the rivals squared away and went
fifteen minutes more without a fall.
Steele punished Marshall with leg
split but couldn't pin his foe

HERE is a particularly effective
IL basketball tap-off play. A
back tap is made by XII to the
guard, X-2, who has cut in behind
the center as the tap is made.
The forward, X-3, while coming
in at the jump, crosses behind OIL,
the defensive center. X-2 then
makes a long loop pass to XII,
who has circled around ks and
cut for the basket.
Perfection in this play requires
careful timing. X-3. in cutting to-
ward the center, maneuvers O-3
into the path of OIL as the lat
ter turns to follow XII.

Governor Floyd B. Olson, fol-

with the two majority leaders Of

special session will be called to
meet December 2, and that there
will be an effort to reach a presses
sion agreement on tax revision, as
well as on the social security bills.
The Governors statement, made
in the presence Of Senator Charles
N. Orr and Representative Roy z.

ended in a conciliatory mood on
both sides.
It has been agreed, they all said,
that there will be as little politics
as possible in the special session.
That may bar the proposed investi-
cation Of the game and fish divi-
sion.
There will be further discussion
Of the subjects to come before the

Governor Olson said. I'VE will see
If we cannot agree on a tax bill,
which is Of equal Importance with
the social security legislation"
Senator Orr and Representative
Dunn said that they would not as
sumo to commit their colleagues on
any program but that their confer
ence with the Governor was
friendly, with a conciliatory spirit
shown on both sides. There was
some informal talk about details
of the proposed tax bill, which were
factors in the disagreement last
spring over the omnibus tax bill,
but no decisions were reached on
anything.
