Get Comedy
Treatment
BY Harry Macarthur

The WMAL-TV management
has decided that what female
wrestling needs is comedy relief
This could be debatable. Female
wrestling undoubtedly needs some
thing, but it is possible that it is
not comedy relief.
It is already a boob frolic
Alongside it the roller derby looks
like a veritable intellectual pur-
suit. a sort of chess on wheels
as it were. Female wrestling is
already ludicrous, not to mention
unbelievable, and it is hard to
give comedy relief to something
already ludicrouS.
On the other hand female wres-
tling is one thing that can't be
done a bit of harm by comedy
relief. It is broad, buffooniSh
burlesque of itself to begin with
and an announcer kidding it can
not detract from it.
WMAL-TV has enlisted Jerry
Strong to perform this service fol
half hour every week. on Tues
days at 9 pm. The wrestling is on
film but Mr.. Strong has been
given a fake ringside to sit at and
live and film portions of the show
are blended neatly to give the
arena effect.
Mr.. Strong, of course, does not
know a hammerlock from a hack
saw. but this is hardly a draw
back. In no other field of televi-
sion is authoritative comment less
necessary than in wrestling, fe-
male, male or midget. Some of the
funniest unintentional comedy on
the air is provided by that Holly
wood wrestling commentator who
takes the whole thing seriously
and shouts excitedly of pressure
and leverage and painful holds.
If one of those wrestlers ever
hurt anybody Intentionally he'd
be unfrocked by his brethren and
drummed out of his profession.
Mr. Strong. not being a wres-
tling authority (whatever that
might be-, just has fun with this
Tuesday chore. 1t is quite possible
that you may, too, if, of course
you find anything rewarding in
the spectacle of female wrestling
in the first place.
