... Sandor Kovacs beat Lenny Montana

Note: December 13, 1959 - A story by reporter Phil Dietrich appears on the Akron Boxing
and Wrestling Commission turning Jack Stanley down for a new promotion.  He wanted to
promote at the Rollercade, using Al Haft's stable and Buddy Rogers.  At the September
meeting, he was turned down, as Akron couldn't support two weekly shows.  Haft wore out
his welcome.  His booking office was sending poorer and poorer wrestlers.  Walter Moore,
who promoted for years at the Akron Arena for Haft, switched to Pedro Martinez's
booking office in late 1958.

Akron, Ohio: December 19, 1959
Fritz and Waldo von Erich beat Ilio DiPaolo and Bobo Brazil ... Lord Layton beat Hard
Boiled Haggerty ... Billy Lyons beat Sandor Kovacs ... Mike Valentino drew with Lenny
Montana

Akron, Ohio: December 26, 1959
Bobo Brazil drew with Fritz von Erich ... (Midgets) Little Beaver and Tiny Tim beat Sky
Low Low and Irish Jackie ... Don Lewin drew with Johnny Foti

Note: Pedro Martinez often seemed to change his wrestlers names in Buffalo.  Chief
Chewacki showed up there, and also in Cleveland.  However, Akron promoters billed
Chewacki as Lenny Montana, because he was well known in that city.  The Akron
reporters likely messed up more wrestlers names than any place I know.  I have tried to
straighten out the names as best I can.

Promoter: Walter Moore
