Return of Wrestling Season

Return of Wrestling Season.

Before long New Zealanders will again be in the midst of a wrestling season and enthusiasts are particularly pleased to know that Earl McCready, the most popular wrestler ever seen in the Dominion, is to be a member of this season's team. Others making another visit to New Zealand include Danny Dusek, Chief Little Wolf and King Kong Cox. Newcomers include Rube Wright, 6ft. 2 ½in. in height—he wrestled Earl McCready in the first match staged at Albert Hall, London, for 30 years—and Rolland Kirchmeyet, 6ft. 3in. in height, who has a wonderful record as an all-rounder. Bigger and better men seems to be the motto of the Dominion of New Zealand Wrestling Union this season.
