The American Legion Monthly, Vol. 22

Alligator wrestling, for instance. Bumps Coppinger, thirty-eight year-old native of Florida, is champion at this peculiar pastime, and every Sunday during the winter he downs a twelve-foot live alligator at the miami-biltmore Water Carnival before several thousand paying spectators. He's been doing this for a living since he was twenty, but danger exists every time he jumps into the pool. An alligator can knock you thirty feet with his tail. He has two sets of dagger fangs which can easily snap off an arm or two.
