Rlomfield Defeats Kirilinko
(By Telegraph—
WELLINGTON, Last Night. A single and rather unusual typo of fall gave Lofty Blomfield the decision over Matros Kirilinko in a professional wrestling contest to-.night at the Town Hall. In the sixth round Kirilinko dumped Blomfield • hard and lifted him to repeat the coup. As he. looked iikely to deposit him oyer the ropes, the referee (Mr. Alf. Jenkins) hauled Kirilinko backwards, whereupon he overbalanced and fell underneath Blomfield. The latter promptly pinned him. Kirilinko gavp a fine demonstration of speed and cunning, while Blomfield interspersed his nsual solid tactics with a leavening of elbow jolts.
