Award Dr. Damm Trophy To Dick Schaefer Thuittby, May 31, 1M2 OIANC BROWN. IDlTOft At Amphitheatre Bo Bo Comes Face-To-Face June 8 With Japan's Baba Bo Bo Brazil, the 275 pound Benton Harbor, Mich, heavy weight whi has become one of the outstanding wrestler's in the mat sport, will receive his toughest test when he meets Baba, the giant who scales 329 pounds, on Friday night, June 8. in the Amphitheatre, 42nd and Halsted Sts. Promoter Fred Kohler has signed for the same card, the new sensational Edouard Car-pentier of France to meet Bobby Davis, manager and adviser of Buddy Rogers.

World's heavyweight Champion. This match was demanded toy Carpentier because of the insults hurled at him by Davis in regards to Carpentier's demand for a title chance at Rogers. However, getting back to the Baba-Brazil match, the rugged negro heavyweight Brazil ask. cd Promoter Kohler for the match because of Brazil's dislike for Baba's nerve and judo tactics in the ring against past opponents of the Jap. The giant Baba has been using these nerve holds and judo chops opponents in an illegal manner.

No Love Lost While the Edouard Carpentier Davis match has a great appeal to the fans there are other star bouts to appeal to the Amphitheatre customers. In the Carpentier bout, Davis has shown his disgust for Carpentier. When hearing of Carpentier's challenge to Rogers, the talkative Davis said that the Frenchman is just a boy trying to accomplish a man's task. "Big Moose" Cholak, the 365 pound Maine grappler, will face the likeable and popular Johnny Valentine, which should be a match that the fans really want to see. Valentine is without a doubt the most popular wrestler in the sport today.

He has an elbow smash he uses to great advantage in gaining victory after victory. The fans would like nothing better than to see Valentine crack up the towering and huge Cholak. Eugene Marin, of Puerto Ri co, will attempt to stop the win streak chalked up by The Mon gol, fierce and brutal athlete from outer Mongolia. In a tag match Argentina Apollo Miguel Perez, leading Latin team of the nation, will face The Fabulous Kangaroos of Australia. Angelo Poffo meets Darnell, talented Philadelphia star, and Karl Von Hess, of Germany, wrestles Fred Atkins of Australia.
