WRESTLING
BIIU PINDER INCAPACITATES BOESCH [United Press Association] GREYMOUTH, This Day. Bhu Pinder defeated Paul Boesch in a scientific wrestling bout on Saturday night, Boesch being unable to continue after the sixth round when Pinder took the only fall with his specialty, a Hindu crab. Boesch injured his back when Pinder avoided a drop kick, giving the Indian an opportunity to daze him with a spectacular stomach throw before applying the hold. The bout was exceptionally fast and devoid of showmanship.
