This match could have gone either way with first one and then the other having the advantage. Lopez, the great opportunist grabbed Gideen when he was foolish enough to turn his back to argue with the refer- ee. They can say what they like about Lopez, but he is a real champion, what a terror he must have been in his prime. In the other bouts the Jennings 1Bros‘, those honest upright citi- ‘zens of Subury, lost to Paul La- chance and Freddy Labeile when they were thumbed to the show- ers for using the tag team rope to subdue the Frenchies.

Brooks, at his beefing best, declared that it was not a fair go to giVe their team Gideen and White right off the bat. “We should have at least drawn an easier team than these two." White said. “I think the drawing should have been done in public and not by Joe Greenfield. who is in this tour- nament himself." But right or wrong Basher Bill and Stoney have drawn Gideeh and Tommy White. In the other tag team Orro Moâ€" ro and tough Karl Mueller of Kitchener have drawn Maurice Gosselin and Eddie Edwards. Morro &the German were happy at the draw 'and announced to one/and all that there would be no more mistakes, “This time we Will get the cash and the tra- phyri.‘ Although Edwards and the lit- tle French star are not spectac- ular. they sure can get a lot done in a short time and they are very decelvlng workmen. Let's hope they can deceive Mueller and Morro. To balance out the card Big Jim Krotcher of Aurora will take on newcomer “Happy” Booth of Maple, Ont. and in the other bout a wrestler is being sought for Rocky Bowley, “the Moncton Hawk.‘ who has not appeared here for two years. Let us hope that he gets a good one. as we remember he is a pretty good grappler and should spice up the cards at Thornhlll.
