FARRELL (United Press Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK, Feb. 10.—Jack Cur- ley’s ban on the “headlock hold" in wrestling bouts in New York has di- vided the ranks of the grapplers and mat fans. Mostly effected by the edict of the Promoter who has become practica}- ly the controller of the sport in America, of course, is the heavy- weight champion, Ed “Strangler” Lewis who worked his way up and won the title by the “headlock.” Lewis claims that the prohibition of his pet hold will just about ruin him as the most lucrative matches are staged in New York and as smaller promoters -in other states are follow- ing the lead of Curley in outlawing fore the Continental Sporting club: ‘the hold. of Paris, is off.

Scientifically, Dr.» Frederick an- alyzed the headlock as a ‘‘twin broth- er to nitrous oxide anesthesia, some- thing which ‘puts ‘em to sleep but doesn't permanently hurt them.’” “The headlock is no more danger- ous than the ‘scissors’ or the toe hold,” Dr. Frederick said. “It sim- ply puts the opponent to sleep for a little while. The brain is protected by its bony covering from serious or permanent injury from the hold. The ‘scissors’ on the other hand, is like ly to do permanent injury to tho wrestler internally.” Lewis invented the headlock, — his. wife said.
