BOESCH DISQUALIFIED
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
MOTUEKA, July 4.
Because he did not allow Lofty Blomfield time in which to climb back into the ring after having catapulted the New Zealander through the ropes, Paul Boesch was disqualified in the last round of a professional wrestling contest in Nelson tonight. Boesch attempted another dropkick after the decision had been awarded to Blomfield, and he was still arguing with the referee as he climbed out of the ring. Boesch secured a fall in the first round with a body-press following three dropkicks and Blomfield equalised in the fifth, taking a fall by means of his octopus clamp.
