WRESTLING
KILONIS DEFEATS SUNNI. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Auckland, January 14. Two professional wrestling contests drew a very large house to the Town Hall to-night. John Kilonis (Greece) defeated Sunni (New Zealand champion) by falls in the third and sixth rounds. The winner was again very unpopular with the crowd, who hooted at frequent intervals. There was a difference of nearly two stone in the weights. In a three-round bout between Pat McCarthy (Canada) and Jim Heslin (the Australian heavy-weight), the referee awarded a draw.
