OF mass calisthenics at Turner
Arena Thursday night, and Master
Singh is a good beta good place
bet, at least, to take all the mar
bles.
The gentlemen have met before.
and were introduced only last week
when they also featured the pro-
gram, but the finish was so unsat-
isfactory that Promoter Joe Turner
was obliged to call for rerun. 1t
seems that the Terror had slightly
counterfeit tinkle when he hit the
cement outside the ring, but not
half as worthless as the cobra hold
Singh clamped on him Immediately
after.
Singh insisted on using his best
weapon beyond the confines of fair
territory, and the rules state en-
phatically that pulling ears or
tweaking noses is strictly forbidden
outside the ropes.
Singh would be chafing at the
bit if there was one handy, biting
his toenails and calling the Ter
ror all sorts of improper names If
he wasn't up in Philadelphia up
holding the honor of his name.
