WRESTLING
A DRAWN BOUT. (Pee United Press Association.) WELLINGTON", September 25. Wrestling of a calibre equal, if not superior, to anything seen this season was witnessed in the Wellington Town Hall this evening, when Rumberg I drew with Mamos. A large crowd enjoyed eight rounds of hard, brisk, and purposeful wrestling, devoid of showmanship or rough tactics. Rumberg appeared as substitute for George Walker who, by reason of a swollen knee, was unable to fulfil his engagement. The American took a fall in the fifth round with a flying body scissors, which he secured when he rebounded from the ropes with catlike speed. He submitted in the seventh round to a Greek cross.
