'POLLY AND H ER PALS THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, FEB 11, 1939 By CLIFF STERRETT PAW,T THINKS WE COULD SAVE MONEY BY DON'UP A BUDGET, LIKE TH' DILLERS SHUX, SUSIE, ) [ YUH KNOWS RIGHT WELLOUR BUDGETS NEVER GOT US NOWHERES, BULL NECKERS HOLD LIVELY SHOW AT ELKS Spendlove Tossed by Gas- ton in Main Event Match by Under-ring Tactics Billy (Purple Pants) Spendlove came out second best last night in a rough and tough wrestling match with Walt Gaston, ex-Mexican champ, in the main event bout of the card staged in the Elks' Hall. Spendlove who is a veteran of the old “anything goes” school was tak- en by surprise in the fracas when the tricky Gaston pulled a dirty (to quote a woman fan in the blue hat third row from the rear) Wwin the decision. In the fifth round of their sched- uled 8 ten-minute round Spendlove was decidedly in front By a series of well-aimed open hand (?) socks at Gaston’s midships and chin, he had the Mexican champ groggy. Picking him up, he tossed him through the ropes. The time Gaston crawled out from be- neath the seats, climbed into the ring looking 1 Spendlove re- peated the toss act and stood back waiting for Gaston to make another reappearance from among the spec- talors. Suddenly from the other side of the ring, at Billy’s back who should come flashing in but friend Gaston He dumped the surprised Spendlove on his upholstered ear and took a fall with a fast Boston Crab. He had crawled under the ring in record time to pop up on the other side. This spill brought the count on even terms as in the third Spend- love after giving his opponent a thorough working over lifted Gas- ton from the floor, went into an airplane spin and slammed the re- mains on the canvas. Gaston took the sponge. Climax Comes Climax came in the sixth round when Gaston, recovering from two feet pushed into his solar plexus while Spendlove used the corner post for leverage, managed to win on a semi-fluke. Spendlove attempt- ed a repeat performance of his air- plane spin, but this time when he hoisted the groggy Gaston something gave way underneath.’ They crashed to the floor with Gaston on top and before the ex-Montana champ could begin figuring, his shoulders were pinned for the count. Weights as announced from the ring. Spendlove 182, Gaston 177. Eustace-Omadahl Semi-final match between Gene Eustace and Carl Omadahl saw the heavier North Dakotan flip Eustace with a reverse leg lock after 4 min- utes of the second round in their 4 six-minute round bout. In the fourth round, which saw Eustace take the sea gull route over the ropes, and which witnessed Referee Al Greenwald become the object of both wrestlers’ dislike when he at- tempted to stop them from pulling each other's hair, Eustace regained some ground by slipping on Oma- dahl what might be described as a reverse Boston Crab, and winning, thereby, a fall. The match ended in the fifth round by Omadahl slipping Eustace | from a punishing arm lock into a| Boston Crab and giving him the! works. Weights announced from the ring, Eustace 174, Omadahl 184. Poor old Doc Webb was practically chased from the ring by the warm tempeerd Eustace who had violent objections to him acting as referee. At the last match, it will be re- membered, Eustace in the arbitra- tor's role was forced to spend half the night impressing his decisions on the Auk Bay flash, who was on the card, with numerous headlocks and leg twists. Eustace and the Doc don't get along so well it seems. They should go in the ring and fight it out Davis-Numa Draw Curtain raiser match between Red Davis and Gordon Numa turned out a draw after the boys wrestled the route in a 4 six-minute round match. The boys went it the hard way forgetting that the idea is to get out of a hold by doing anything from kicking your opponent in the proibiscus to climbing a ring post. The boys, using legitimate brute strength tactics, received a Wwell earned hand from the audience at the close of every round. Weights, Numa 158, Davis 164.
