WRESTLING
TITLE BOUT Great interest is being taken in the British Empire professional heavyweight wrestling title match at the Town Hall between Earl M'Cready and John Katan. The contest will bring before the public two of the most outstanding figures of tho season. The years which M'Cready has spent in the Dominion have caused him to be
placed on a pedestal over and above all those who had attempted to challenge his title. This season, however, the position is different, due to the activities of Katan, whose record has placed him above M'Cready. Although he lost the championship to Blorafield, Katan was dissatisfied, and was not content until he had regained the honour Whatever the result, it will a great match at the Town Hall between two really outstanding wrestlers.
