Walker Defeats Shikina By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND. July 31. In a spectacular and exciting wrestling bout at Tauranga to-night, George Walker defeated Oki Shikina by two falls to one. Shikina secured a fall in the third round with a body press fol towing a series of Japanese head throws, and Walker equalised in the fifth round with an aeroplane spin, followed by a dump and body press. Shikina was late in coming back in the sixth round as he was suffering from an injured left shoulder and Walker applied a reverse hanimerlock, thus securing a submission fall.
