WIN FOR TBRRIBLE TI'RK. SECURES THE BOSTON CRAB. (Per Press Association) DUNEDIN, Last Night. On Saturday night Kala Pasha (12.10) defeated Alex Lundyn (13.12) after the most thrilling wrestling contest yet seen in Dunedin. Lundyn was the aggressor in the first three rounds, but in the fourth the Turk secured a deadly Boston crab hold and before he submitted Lundyn was so badly injured that he could not continue. It was to have been an eight rounds contest. At the close Kala Pasha was subjected to a hostile demonstration from the spectators, but there did not appear to be any legitimate reason for this. It will be remembered that Kala Pasha used the “Boston crab” to such effect in Palmerston North recently that Ray, his opponent, had to be taken to hospital.

Logan secured the first fall in the fourth round, but when thrown heavily by Alley in the fifth round was unable to continue.
