Stooge' Charges Londos Failed to Pay His Salary
Until certain details are settled out of court it will be unnecessary for Jim Londos, champion wrestler, to come to court and defend himself against a charge he hired Pete Ladjimi, another wrestler, to "build him up for the championship".
All according to the record in superior court where an indefinite continuance in the trial has been granted
Ladjimi is suing for $30,800 claiming Londos hired him at $600 a week to wrestle prospective Londos opponents to see if they "had anything on the ball" so Londos would select as opponents only those he felt certain he could beat, this "building him up for the championship".
Londos has denied this.
