and Mrs Ellwood Walker RETURNS I Three hundred odd fans were on hand at the Newmarket Mem orial arena Thursday to usher in the wrestling season They wended their way homeward figuring thed seen a pretty fair opening card In the preliminary bone ing tussle East Yorks Jack thorpe used a full complement of elbow smashes and body slams to gain a 21 fall decision over Aurora policeman Jack Krotch- took In 11 minutes with a squeeze and body slam In the semifinal bout Canadian middle weight champ used the school boy press to gain two falls over challenger Davis Starr That over now well bring up the main bout featuring Baron Waldo Von and the strong man Les Lyman The baron the pride and joy of the Holland countryside started strong and applied head lock after head lock to rate the initial fall in the 13th minute Then the fun really began and the baron made the mistake of taking a ride on Mr Lymans broad shoulders and before you could say Jack Robinson the baron was counted out on a back breaker That fall came in nine and a half minutes and Lyman dooded the baron again in four minutes with an identical hold to lake the third fall and bout Therell be another feature wrestling card at the area to night and every Thursday night from here on until its time to hock out the hockey parapher nalia Legkm In Action Friday The Hubs biggest baseball hour this side of the playoffs comes up at oclock tomorrow Friday evening at the fair grounds Thats the exact time that Ortie Thorns should fire the first strike past a swinger to officially open the South baseball league Newmarket baseball boosters arent predicting how many fans will be on hand to see first pitch come sailing in but judging from fan interest in the big diamond sport therell be a big crowd on deck The local team this season is being sponsored by Branch of the Canadian Legion The Legion has purchased complete uniforms for the team and the Hub appears headed for a big baseball year No one at the moment can pre dict the starting lineup but itll likely run something like this catching Elsby pitching Thorns Should the speed- curve ball specialist run into trouble Ken Broughton will be ready to come to the rescue Then looking at the inner picket circle itll be at first Don Spider Gibson at second Murj ray at short Jerry Hugo and at third Lloyd Hat There wont be any sharp infield in the circuit Havent an inkling of the outer pasture men but it could be Ike Bill Smith Ken Motts Thorns Grant Blight Fred Dillman or coach Hack Cain I The Newmarket Era and Thursday May INTER LADIES OPEN MA Aurora gifts and
