ArmDrag.com is looking for volunteers to help populate the Archives.
We're not only looking for results, but tournament brackets, photos, and
articles as well. Many college and public libraries have microform copies
of complete newspapers dating back over 100 years. In them, you can find
lots of wrestling results. If you enjoy doing research, and you have some time,
make a trip to the library and check it out. Ask a librarian how to get
started and how to print out the articles that you find.

Tom Smith of
Madison High School turned in an undefeated season last night at West
High in capturing the 127-pound class championship in the
Interscholastic League's city individual tourney.
Smith decisioned
Ralph Scialo of Jefferson, 4-3, in
recording his 11th straight victory before a standing room only crowd.
The only pin on
the 12-bout card came in the 180-pound class when West's Mike
Tartaglia stopped Madison's Frank
Ferra at 3:57.
Most interesting
match for spectators came in the unlimited division, last on the card.
Madison's Bob Abbey turned back
East's George Ferratta in
overtime, 2-1.
Unknown to
faithful onlookers was the friendly match between two buddies,
Charles Caleo of Edison and Don
Zambito of Franklin, in the 120-pound
class.
Zambito was city
and sectional 112-pound champion in 1958-59 and carried a 6-0-1 record
into this year's individual championships. His shortcoming during this
season was a leg hold that he couldn't break when applied by East's
Billy Protz, an opponent he would
meet in the city championships.
There was only one
thing to do. Practice it. Who did he pick to work out against? His buddy
Caleo. Charles was in the next class (120 pounds) above Zambito. This
worked out fine, except for one thing. Zambito failed to make the weight
class at 112 and ran right into Caleo in the finals of the 120-pound
class.
You guessed it,
Caleo won the decision, 4-3.
Protz stopped
West's Charles Marvin, 7-0 in the
112-pound class to turn in an undefeated season. He has one tie.
West's
Willie Weaver is in the same boat. He
stopped Marshall's Don Chapman,
14-3, in the 165-pound class.
East captured team
honors with 62 points. Points are scored on an individual's advance as
the tournament progresses. An individual, even though he should
eventually lose, still would get points for his victories for his team.
Madison finished
second with 58, followed by West 53, Jefferson 34, Monroe 27, Edison 23,
Franklin 21, Charlotte 19 and Marshall 18.
Last night's
winners will represent the city schools in the Section 5 Class AA finals
in Geneva Saturday at 8 p.m. Normally there is a consolation round, but
this year it has been dropped. According to Ed Hulek,
chairman of the city tourney, last night's losers will also be taken to
the sectionals, but this year they will be spectators.

BILL PROTZ
Oriental 127-pounder |
Tom Smith of
Madison High School will lead 24 Interscholastic League wrestlers into
the finals of the city individual championships at 8 o'clock tonight on
the West mats.
Smith, working in
the 127-pound class, is undefeated this season and defending city and
sectional champion. His opponent will be Ralph Scialo
of Jefferson who is 8-2 on the season and was the 1957-58 city champion
in the 103-pound class. He sat out the 1958-59 season.
Bill Protz leads a
foursome of East High matmen who will try and keep their school out
front in the team standings. Through the semifinals, East with 32 points
has a 13 point lead over West.
Protz, 9-0-1 on
the season, will meet West's Charles Marvin,
6-1-3, in the 112-pound division. Marvin, however, is the 1958-59 city
and section 95-pound champion.
The winners in
tonight's 12 matches will be crowned city champions and will represent
the city schools in the Section 5 tournament Saturday in Geneva.
