need Of X-rays today to determine
just how severe is the damage.
In the feature match the masked
Golden Terror, revealed as Robert
Wheatley in damage suit flled by
a woman patron who claims she was
injured last week, continued his win
ming streak by taking Karl Davis.
Davis was counted out when unable
to continue after running into a
ring post, and hasty dressing room
examination revealed he had an in
jured back.
Referee Burns is believed to have
fractured shoulder blade in freak
accident. A buckle holding one of
the ropes flew of and, struck him in
the back. Campofreda, former West
ern Maryland football star, broke his
right collar bone while losing to
Bibber Mccoy.
A capacity crowd Jammed the hall
last night and several hundred were
turned away as the rassling fans
took kindly to Turner's new cut
prices. The start of the feature
match between the Terror and Davis
was held up for several minutes
while the weekly argument was
settled as to whether the masked
grappler would have his second at
the ringside, but after that 1t got
away to the regular rough and
tumble affair with the Terror in
flicting damage on all fronts.
