Open Air Match
Scheduled July )

Charlie Thornton, spectacular
Tucson wrestler, and Ramon Gar
cia, self-styled Fort Lowell Whirl-
wind, will tangle in the main event
performance at the Grand avenue
open boxing arena here the night
of July 8, it has been announced.
The wrestling skirmish will top a
mixed boxing wrestling card.
Thornton, known in Southwestern
graphing circles as the Arizona
Wildcat, comes to Nogales a slight
favorite to pin the shoulder Of the
notoriously rough Garcia in their
best-two- -out-of- three fall, 90-mun-
ute time limit affair.
Garcia, one of the toughest mat
performers in Arizona, met defeat
at the hands of the clever Tucson
ian in the Old Pueblo several weeks
ago and the tussle is considered g
"grudge" battle by the two wrest-
lerS.
While Garcia resorts to the
rougher tactics of head-pulling, eye
gouging and kicking, Thornton de-
pends largely on his scientific
knowledge of the game. He has be-
come famous throughout the South
west for his swiftly-executed fly
ing drop kicks and his muscular
legs have carried him to many ring
victories.
Thornton will climb through the
ropes of the local torture pit at 149
pounds, four pounds heavier than
Garcia.

"What Is the Gospel" He declared
the gospel consists of three things,
the life death and resurrection OF
Jesus. and declared "these three facts
are unique and peculiar to Christian
ity; they are it's sum and substance"
The preacher took his text from one
of the epistles to the Corinthians, and
said it was descriptive of the goddess
ness of the day condition he SAID
was likewise singularly applicable TO
the present time. The remedy for the
condition was the gospel OF Jesus
Christ said Paul, and the same
remedy is as good today as ever and
throughout the ages had demonstrate
ed that fact. The worlds choice today
is between Christ and chaos and be-
