The match is to a two out of three fall verdict. Big Humphrey with hie characteristic smile and good humor has been a sensation s!nce coming to the mfdwest. The 270 pound red head who enters the ring attired in long Johns and sweat shirt is a capable wrestler and is going after the heavyweight Championshlp. The Chest with a sixty-three inch chest expansion is a terrific wrestler. He has defeated the majority of his foes with a bear hug. He may find this impossible in facing Big Humphrey who is a tough one to handle. The Big Humphrey-Chest clash will be a rough-house tangle with no holds barred by either wrestler. It is a certainty that the referee will have to caution both principals to stay within the rules. Big Humphrey is a genial character but ckn get tough when the occasion requires. Promoter Kohler has signed an all star card for this outstanding show, one of the top ones of the season. Bobby Managoff, favorite Chicago heavyweight meets the strong man George Dusette of Boston, Managoff who comes from a family of mat stars, is a versatile star. The dark haired windy city grappler is the son ^f a former famed wrestler. His sister Is Kay Armen, famed songstress. In a tag bout on the show The Great Balbo, of the east is paired with Don Lewin, handsome Buffalo grappler against George Bruckman, of Washington and Zack Malkov, of Chicago. The latter pair are rugged and methodical with a thorough knowledge of wrestling. Malkov is a veteran of the old school of grappling and his full nelson Is as feared among opponents as is the full nelson of George Dusette. Fans who like wrestling under the stars will like the. cozy Lake County Stadium. Dynamite Safer It's safer to work in a dynamite factory than in a garage or service station.
