A WRESTLING THRILL
Two giants of the wrestling ring will come to grips in the Town Hall on Monday night in a match which will give fans all the excitement and thrills, combined with good wrestling, that they desire. They are Earl McCready and George Hopkins. McCready is a claimant for the British Empire title, and is recognised as a powerful contender for the world title. He has been unbeaten in New Zealand. Champion of Great Britain, Hopkins is a phenomenally strong man, and is a clean and forceful wrestler. A unique feature of the match is that it will be the first time in Wellington that two British subjects have met in a professional heavyweight wrestling contest.
