WRESTLING
JUDSON and westcoatt (Per Press Association —Copyright). CHRISTCHURCH, September 15. Frank 'Judson beat Rusty Westcoatt ini a professional wrestling bout held to-night, by two falls to one. . It was one of the poorest bouts seen in Christchurch for some time. There was a small audience, who liurlea sarcasms at the wrestlers as they slapped, jolted and pawed one another through eight rounds of an amusing, but hardly a satisfying, contest.
All th ree falls were gained from body presses. Judson had decidedly the better of the contest.
