    "Now it is old Chuck Wiggins of Indianapolis going into the tank for the greater glory of Primo Carnera. Of course , the old chuckler has been pretty well done for these last years but the fact that Primo met him at all can only mean that he is all through, because Primo is under retainer to the Garden Corp. and the plan is to bring him through undamaged and not even embarrassed to the summer time..."
