MCCREADY EXTENDED
BHU FINDER BEATEN ONLY FALL OF BOUT (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day. Forced to Use his superior strength to offset the speed and versatility of his opponent, the British Empire wrestling champion, Earl McCready, was fully extended last night in retaining his title against a challenge from Prince Bhu Finder. For the greater part of the contest McCready had difficulty in coping with the elusive Indian and it was only in the seventh round, when he resorted to fore arm jolts, that he subdued Pindcr sufficiently to take the only fall of the match.
