APRIL 10, 1933 (MONDAY) – ATLANTA, GA – HOWELL MILL ARENA (F.P. Owens – Promoter) > Wesley Brownlee versus Bill Ward > Dink Almand versus Chief Lakeside / Notes: No documented results for this card have been found.

The last reference we have shows Red McIntyre defending the title against Mark Lewin on February 22, 1957, in Marietta, although McIntyre is billed as champion against Von Brawner on April 19, 1957, in Atlanta. The Marietta office may simply have been recognizing Von Brawner as its champion.

Leo Garibaldi was credited as being a referee for this card. It was announced that the Challenger would be wrestling in Atlanta on April 17, 1970. There was an announcement in the program for this card that effective May 1, 1970, all ticket prices would be increased by $0.50, using the high quality of talent as justification.

Jim Hesslyn had been billed as the Southern Lightweight Champion since April 4, 1933. It appears as though Max Stewart and W.K.
