WRESTLING
Harban Singh Beats Walker
By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, Sept. 16.
Wrestling to-night before an audience of 5000, George Walker was incapacitated in the sixth round in his match against Harban Singh.
The Indian secured a submission fall in the third round. In the fifth Walker, with headlocks and dumps, won a body press. Harban eame out groggily in the sixth and was dumped twice. Walker picked him up again, whirled him around in a half aeroplane spin, and fell on him. It is possible that at the same time the Indian, who is a remarkably cool wrestler, pulled his head down, but at all events Walker’s hpad hit the mat with a loud crack. Harban rolled him over and pinned him for the deciding fall.
