WRESTLING
blomfielo-kent return As was expected from their first match, when Harry Kent defeated 'Lofty" Blomfield. great rivalry exists between this pair of evenly-matched wrestlers. Blomfield suffered defeat on the first occasion through lack of sufficient condition due to the early start of the season. He has been training hard and has had several matches. He is confident of score. Kent knows Blonifield's nieihods and will need to adopt fiesh tactics to once again lower the New Zenlander's colours. In their first meetins several of Blonifield's winning holds, such as the Boston crab, were not used, and he is confident of being able-to apply them, next Monday. It is rumoured that Kent can rough it better than any. man in New Zealand and he has declared that, if Blomfield adopts any wild tactics, the Aucklander will receive more than ha bargained for. If it is speed, strength and ability ih.yt produces great matches then Monday's bout should be ranked among the beat.
