WRESTLING
DAVIS AND LEATHERS TO MEET. Hamilton’s next wrestling match, advertised in this issue for the 20tlx August, should draw a capacity house. The principals are "Wee" Willie Davis, standing 6ft Tin in his socks and weighing 18 stone, and Sam Leathers, who is 6ft 4J in and weighs 16 stone. Davis has the reputation of being the roughest wrestler to visit New Zealand, while Leathers has proved his ability in Hamilton to draw with Kruse, who is considered to be McCready's equal. Both the men are well matched in height, and their bout should be full of thrills.
