Texan Makes Mat Mistake
Fails to Get Past Rascher After Challenging Two I. U. Huskies. Dick Raines, the Texas Tornado,
was slowed to a mere breeze today. The 'ex-cowboy poked a little fun
at collegiate wrestlers a few days|
ago, and added that he could manhandle the two former Indiana University stars, Am Rascher ana Otto Kuss, on the same night. Today, the Panhandle Powerhouse agreed that he might have been wrong. He didn't ‘get -any farther than Rascher last night, for the Hoosier idol dumped Raines unceremoniously into the aisles four times last night, and the last time Dick didn’t come back. : Kuss Takes Vacation Having lost to Rascher, there wasn’t any more to it, and Kuss didn't ‘have to work. Raines evidently figured he could rough the young pastimers into submission. But Am surprised him. He not only proved he could take it, but beat the Tornado at. his own game. . Am came back from an Eastern tour recently and boasted that the experience was just what he needed. Last night's performance indicated he wasn’t bragging. The Texan helped himself to the short end when, after 32 minutes of
tugging, he took off on a flying
tackle that wound up in a collision between the Raines brow and a solid ring post. The ring pdst won, and Raines tumbled out into the cinders.
Series of Slams
Four minutes later he opened on
Rascher with a series of slams, then tried some more flying tackles. The last one didn’t work. Rascher tumbled over on his back, caught Raines in the “i » with his lashing feet, and hoisted him over the top rope and into Aisle 2. Dick didn’t let up after that one. “It required 24 minutes for Orville Brown, Wichita “death lock” artist,
to dispose of Al Sitko, a newcomer
from Chicago, in one of the supporting matches. Sitko made it a
