Of Strangling, HAT heretofore has been sauce only for the goose and plain poison for the gander Tuesday night at Grifith Stadium. That is, providing Rudy Dusek, Nebras- ka's “wildcat,” can make the sauce the way he says he can. 3 1In short, Master Jeems Londos’ “Jap- anese neckhold,” of which Japan is quite innocent, will be at the full disposal of Master Dusek when they meet for the third time before what is expected to be a record-breaking and distinctly anti-Londos crowd. It was a very involved deal, that for the resumption of play between the title claimant and Rudy, and one of the factors passed over rather lightly was whether Londos’ “what is it?” hold impression prevalent since the announcement of the match was that the Greek would refrain from using his “necklock.” However, Londos’ contract calls for nothing of the sort. He will use it if he wishes will be sauce for both next |10 Rudy Dusek Aims to Do a Bit Toe, in Third Londos Match Next Tuesday can. But Dusek also will have that privilege. Dusek squawked long and loudly. fal- wing his second defeat by Londos, the one that resulted in a near riot. Rudy’s grievance was that Londos could use the necklock with which he won; that he (Dusek) could not, and that even | White, Rudy’s “thorhammer,” allas plain él- bow punches, were barred by the réf- eree. Thus, Rudy sald, everything favored Londos. Making due allowance for ballyhoo, if Dusek loses next Tuesday, when he has permission and admittedly the knowl- edge of how to apply the necklock himself, and with only the strangle and smother holds barred, it will be assured = fourth Londos-Dusek bout never would prove an attraction here. Dusek asserts he has mastered the neckhold and also says it is not hard to learn. -He admits it's a “strangle,” but if Jimmy wants to strangle, that's all right with Rudy, provided he also is allowed to do it. Contrary to the initial announce- ments, sports writers will have little, if any, part in the selection of the referee. d | Dusek and Turner will pick 12 men will be, however, according to Turner.
