Collection ‘A very generous collection was takeh at the last game at Concord for which the team is very apprec- iative. There was an excellent crowd attending and they do hope the people will continue to see these two fine teams play ball.

The main bout on Tuesday’s card was a tag team featuring the team of “Gori” Mangotich and Waldo Von Sieber versus that of Juan Lopez and Jerry Sullivan (Al Or- lando, Juan's original partner did not turn up). Typical Tag Match Favoured Gori & Von Sieber Lose Tag Match To ’Villains’ Panther Gets Semi-final As is usual with a tag match. itl was dirty. Von Sieber got caught} in the corner of Sullivan and Lo-‘ pez and got most of the stuffing kicked out. of him before partner Gori came to his rescue. Then Waldo grabbed Sullivan and Man- gotich grabbed Lopez. Playfully Gori picked up Lopez in a hammer lock and rammed his curly poll into the sagging abdomen of Sul- livan, held in a like hold by Von Sieber. Joyously Von Sieber re- paid the compliment by ramming Gerry into Juan. Finally Mango- tich applied 'his double leg stretch grapevine and body balance to Lo- pez, and forced a submission fall, shooting Juan flat on his mush when he let go. ‘ ' Lopez met Von Sieber at the Mangotich Takes 2nd beginning ,of the second round. Juan weighed 168 lbs., and Waldo scaled in at well over 200. but af- ter a few preliminary passes, the little Mexican stood the giant Ger- man on his ear â€"- but good. He did the same to Mangotich before the bout broke into a near riot. The heroes (Gori and Waldo) re- covered enough energy to hand out a few knocks on their own account but all was to no avail, and Sulli- van caught Mangotich in his cobra choke to take the fall. The semi-final of the evening was Semi-Final ‘ a rematch of the epic battle be- tween Angus Scott and the Black Panther which ended so uncere- moniously on the arena floor some weeks ago. The third fall was short and to the point. Von Sieber landed in a corner, already occupied by Lo- pez and Sullivan, and both of them worked him over thoroughly. Man- ‘otich didn’t even get a chance to at in the ring. While referee flicker held him back, Sullivan and Lopez softened Waldo up then Juan slapped on his Mexican neck twist that forced a submission fall and took the match. The first round was typical of the Panther‘s unique style. He lum- bered around the ring and Angus lumbered around after him. Scott fell victim to a leg split, a head in the stomach and a‘reverse head Chancery complete with strangle. The Panther also got his lumps, being on the receiving end of a series of drop kicks (two missed). a mash in the teeth 'and a few cross buttocks. The Panther seems to be a sort of travel agency in this arena â€" anyway be arranged a number of trips to the cement for Scott, and was kind enough to see him off at the ropes. In fact. he gave him a helping hand (and a few feet) on the way. A top spread by the Panther finished the fall. Both men were bright and merry Panther Wins for the beginning of the last round. The Panther opened with a'barrage of conk bonks and flattened Scott in a corner. Scott came flying back and let him have an elbow in the throat. Then both men got down and rolled round and round and round. During one of these The second fall was much short- er. The Panther came sailing out of his corner. Scott came sailing out of his and “splat!” they met in the middle. Slowly the Congo character rose majestically to his feet. and ran head on into Scott’s size 15 wallopers. Down he went. Up he got â€" ad nauseum. Happily for Scott, on the umpteenth flying drop-kick, the cropped cranium of Black Beauty rang with a resound- ing “clang” on the canvas, and a quick body press disposed of the remains. A crowd of about 400 saw the soft ball game in King Me- morial Park on Friday night, August 7, when the NHL. All Stars of Turk Broda, met the King City team augmented by several well known players from near villages. at a char- ity game sponsored by the Lions Club of King City. The game ended in the favour of the All Stars, with a score of 5-2. The runs made by the local boys were made by Ken- ny Parsons of'the King team, and Murray Edwards, Schom- berg. The profits from the gate and the refreshment booth in the grounds will amount to about $75, and will be added to the fund for Boys and Girls work that is the chief undertaking of the local Lionsl The bleachers that were built by volunteer la- bour of the Lions this sum- mer, were dedicated.

This gave the Panther the bout. The second preliminary was ta- ken by Antonio Rocci from Jacques DuBois with a flying mare and bo- dy press.

For one thing it can pull off many effective plays on both defence and offence that are not possible without a signal system. Yes, there ~is no doubt at all that a well planned signal system will really pay off for the team that develops it. Here are a few of the funda- mental things on which every real- 1y good signal system must be founded. First, it must be simple. The signals must be clear and easy to catch. Each signal must be completely different from any other so that the players do not confuse two signals that are much alike. Second, all signals should be given by movements â€" never by shouting or yelling. Remember, use signs, not vocal signals. Third, every signal should be answered by the player or players to whom it was given. Each play- er should be very sure that he does understand before he gives the 0. K. signal. Fourth, in figuring out the signs you are going to use make sure you decide on a group of natural movements such as touching the cap, hitching the trousers and so Finally, make sure you use as few signals as possible. Remember, make sure you use as few signals as possible. Remember, the fewer signals there are the easier your players will be able to read those you do have. It can improve the effectiveness of your team a great deal. Use it as soon as you can. Tips For Broad Jumperg if you are a running broad jum- per you should concentrate on these three things : 1.

Make Sure You Cool Off A very bad habit the average swimmer has is playing around on the beach or lying in the sun until he is very warm and then tearing into the water. This can be quite a shock to the system and may stiffen and cramp your muscles very quickly. So, if you are warm with exercise in the sun. make sure you go into the water slowly, tak- ing a complete ducking or two be- fore you do any swimming. When you feel chilled and cold while in the water come out and get warm â€" don't stay there. YEAR AFTER YEAR, and again in ’53, Chevrolet sales outstrip all compeiifion.
