50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
Aug 24th, 2008, 1:07pm
 
August 26, 1958  
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA  
 
A "fight to the finish" will headline tonight's PARK CENTER wrestling program.  
 
The NO TIME LIMIT bout will give RED BASTEIN a second shot at THE GREAT BOLO, and if BASTEIN can capture two falls---off will come BOLO's mask.  
 
Last week, the pair battled to a one-hour draw without a single fall being recorded during the 60 minute time limit.  
 
"There must be a decision this time," says promoter JIM CROCKETT. "I don't care if they have to wrestle two hours---this one is going to settle something."  
 
The semi-final scrap is a tag team scuffle that pairs GEORGE BECKER and CYCLONE ANANYA to do battle with the rugged German brother team of FRITZ and WALDO VON ERIC.  
 
The Germans were disqualified in a bout with BILLY TWO RIVERS and his partner last week and quickly showed that they are among the roughest duos in the business today.  
 
The team match is for the best two-out-of-three falls.  
 
Two single bouts make up the undercard. One has ERNIE DUSEK taking on NICK ROBERTS, and the other sends footballer MIKE PAIDOUSIS against TINKER TODD.  
 
PAIDOUSIS and TODD square off at 8:15.
