Verne Gagne (c) Vs. Joe Dusek (of Omaha),
Result Unknown
Notes:
It's said Pesek admits to being 57 years old, but there are some records which show him as being 61.
After the night, Gagne had the following to say:
"I watched the whole match [Pesek-Marconi] and that Pesek-I don't know how he can do it.
Most people his age couldn't even climb in the ring.
I sure wish I could get a chance just to work out wiht Pesek.
I'd ask him to show me some of that stuff."
