matches last Monday night have sell
dom, il ever, been equaled in this
county.
To those who see the wrestling
matches quite frequently, the scheduled
appearance of Hager and Cummings
assured them of a spectacular event.
Both Of these men have established
regulations for sincerity OF purpose
and effort at all times to give the
dience a run for their money, and they
upheld their traditions in the latest
card. The opener between Hager and
Cummings was crammed with action
and excitement while both contestants
were rewarded by generous outpour-
ing OF hand-clapping and cheers by the
spectators. The match was a draw.
Eskimo Eku, which was a surprise to
the house, defeated KLEIN Kusek in
the semi-final Kusek has somewhat
prone to handicap his opponent by
binding him or by attempting to blind
him by rubbing his knuckles in the
other fellows eyes. Al Lee, the ref
cree warned Kusek about these tactics
and on one or two occasions was COM
peeled to resort to a little force to make
Kusek behave and TO comply with the
rules. This also was a good match,
Notwithstanding a little irritation ex-
pressed by the fans.
The main event bewteen Spendlove
and Demchuk was a thriller, from be-
ginning to end. Many established and
pr%econceived ideas held by those who
classify themselves as semi-experts Of
the game were changed in this per-
Torrance. Spendlove twice secured an
Indian death-lock on Demchuk. This
hold is usually good for a fall on ac-
count OF its painful nature. The Ca
madam champion, however, refused to
give in, and finally extricated himself
from both OF these positions, after con-
siderable suffering. 1t appeared in the
last second of this bout that Spendloye
had decisively won the match when he
secured a crab hold on Demchuk, but
