WRESTLING ON MONDAY.
The next . professional wrestling ;match to be staged in Wellington will take place at the Town Hall on Monday night, when "Lofty" Blomfield, the New Zealand champion, will have a return match with Bob Kruse. A previous match, which was held at Auckland, was a most thrilling affair, Kruse winning narrowly on points after each man had secured a fall. Blomfield is not only anxious to have his revenge, but is also confident that he can do so. These two men are of the type that always appeals strongly to the wrestling public, their displays being marked, by scientifically-applied aggression, with many unorthodox touches which help to sustain the interest of the spectators at a high pitch right through. Blomfield's elbow jolts can be relied upon to cause Kruse a lot of trouble, but the Portland man will not be slow in responding very effectively to any rough tactics that | may be initiated. There.is particularly keen rivalry between the pair, and the bout is bound to be hotly contested from start to finish. Particulars are advertised.
