Notes:
Ed Gardenia was Ed Faieta.  Pedro Martinez later renamed him Al Albertino.
Buddy Austin was booked on the November 15th show, but was a no-show, no doubt due
to the fact that Walter Moore changed booking offices.  Moore got bigger names by using
the Martinez office instead of Al Haft’s.
Guy Brunetti and Joe Brunetti were billed as World Tag Team champions on December
13th.
