WRESTLING
FLYiNG TACKLE BARRED COLEMAN'S DECISION (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, 7th November. Owing to the restrictions placed on Lis flying tackle, Abe Colcman, the Hebrew light-heavy-weight wrestler, intends to forgo matches arranged for him in Now Zealand. Colcman states that the flying tackle is his chief asset. As it is allowed elsewhere, he cannot understand why it is barred in New Zealand. He considers there are far more dangerous holds, and instanced the double wristlock. Colcman is booked to meet Kara Pasha in Wellington next Monday, and states that he would also have forgone this engagement but for the fact that the bout has been advertised. Five bouts had been arranged for him in the Dominion.
