Sledge will tackle the veteran jap
anese wrestler, Kiman Kudo. in
the main event of the grappline
card Friday night at City Limits

Sledge has been looking forward
to meeting the great Japanese mat

to stop the mad rush of the lin
Jltsu champion in his dash for a
bout against world titleholder Vim
cent Lopez.
kudo is considered one of the
outstanding matmen in the game
and is perhaps the most entertain
ing OF them all. He has appear
ed in the valley many times and
is very popular with fans here.
In another feature bout Casey
Columbo will tackle Harry Jacobs.
Jacobs is one of the largest men
III the game and is a tough op-
ponent TO run up against. He
weighs over 300 pounds and uses
every ounce of his tremendous
weight in conquering opponents.
Stanley Pinto, a newcomer to the
ring who has been rapidly rising
to fame, will meet Everett Kib-
bcns in the third match Of the eve
ming. Pinto boasts a string of vic
tories over some of the toughest
wrestlers on the coast and is re-
puted TO have a new hold that
completely battles ring mates.
Everett Ribbons, body slam eX-
pert, will prove plenty tough for
Pinto, however, and according to
Contos this bout sill be full Of ac-
ton and thrills.
In the curtain raiser Jerry Mon
chan will attempt to repeat his
performance of last week with an
other win over Bronc Valdez.
