WRESTLING
(ALREADY BEATS ANORESOH [Per United Press Association.] WANGANUI, September 25. In one of the fastest and most scientific wrestling bouts staged here M'Crendy (16.11) gained a decision over Andreson (15.8) by one fall, by means of his octopus deathlock, secured in the fifth round. M'Cready showed himself a wonderfully powerful wrestler, and it was only his amazing physical endurance which enabled him to take the only fall. At least five times the Canadian was almost on the verge of collapse when being held in a leg full Nelson, and the bell saved him on three occasions.
