WIN ON POINTS
CORBETT BEATS KENNETH (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. In a display of scientific wrestling at the Town Hall last night, Joe Corbett, America, beat Ken Kenneth, New Zealand, .on points after each had secured a fall. Kenneth took, the first fall with' a dropkick and a body press in the fourth round, and Corbett evened in the sixth round by taking a fall after a series of flying tackles. Kenneth made a favourable first appearance in the Wellington ring, but the American had just a trifle too much experience for the New Zealander.
