Too Young For Games?
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) LONDON. A wrestler may be banned from the Commonwealth Games because he is suspected to be only 12 years old, the “Dally Mail” reported. He is Ved Prakash, a 7st 41b schoolboy who holds India’s light fly-weight title. He has been competing in Edmonton, Canada, as a member of India’s world championship team. Ved won his title by beating his 19-year-old brother and a 48-year-old man. He has been wrestling since he was eight.
