WRESTLING
win for McCready. UNIMPRESSIVE BOUT. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Earl McCready won an unimpressive wrestling bout with Lofty Blomfield on points, one fall each, in the Town Hall. Wellington, last night. Blomfield took a fall in the second round with an octopus clamp; McCready scored in the seventh, pinning Blomfield with a jack-knife. Though there was a good deal of clean, straight wrestling, with less hard jolting and “frightfulness” than in most of the season’s bouts, there were very few spectacular or notable episodes.
