KATAN HOLDS TITLE
By Telegraph—Press Association.
DRAW WITH McCREADY
Wellington, Last Night John Katan retained the British Empire wrestling championship as the result of a match with Earl McCready to-night. The bout was drawn, neither obtaining a fall. The match was very hard and lawless. At one stage the referee was projected from the ring. Both contestants completely exhausted themselves in vain efforts to force a decision.
