Capt. James Daily of the Broadway squad
won the mixed wrestling match with Mat
sada SOrakichi at Market hall, Minneapolis,
last night. before a fair-sZed audience.
The street car drivers strike undoubtedly
had considerable effect on the, attendance.
Capt. DAILY stripped at 210 pounds, while
the Jap only weighed 15S pounds. In
Gr8co-Roman style Dalv's superior weight
counted against the skill and agility of the
little giant. The latter did far the more
clever work, while the doughty captain ex-
hibited the greatest strength and brute
force. Jerry Murphy acted as umpire for
Soraklchi and Patsy Donahue served in a
like capacity for the captain, while M.
Cleary, the Splinter from Peoria, refereed
and Prof. John Donaldson held
paratively short, the first bout
won by DAILY lasting thirteen minutes the
second bout, won by Sorakichi in eight
minutes, and the last fall won by Daily in
ten minutes. The styles were Greco-Roman
and catch-as-catch-can, and toss for odd
style. DAILY won first and took Greco-
Roman. He at once went on the aggressive
and the Jap seemed only to be feeling of
the strength and skill of his adversary.
DAILY took a neck lock which the Jap broke,
and the same was repeated. Then the Jap
sliced second back hold and forced the
big man to the carpet. DAILY finally got be-
hind and tried diverse locks which proved
futile, the Jap easily breaking away. In
just thirteen minutes DAILY took
HALF NELSON
and won the fall. The decision Of the
referee was criticised quite severely, most
people claiming that only one shoulder
touched the carpet. The second bout was
catch-as-c atch-can, aud was the Jap's from
the word time. The little man rushed for
the leg and forced the giant into the wings.
scattering reporters and spectators, but
DAILY managed to come down on his hands
and easily ayerted a fall. A desperate
struggle on the floor ensued,
ending by the Jap'S suddenly
Selling a leg and body lock, throwing DAILY
with force upon his full back. Time, eight
minutes. DAILY won the toss again and. of
course, chose the Greco-Roman. DAILY
took neck lock, and the Jap seized back
hold, but Daily was too.big. The little mans
short arms would not reach far enough to
do effective work, but he carried DAILY to
the floor after few minutes more, during
which DAILY attempted three half and two
full Nelson's, the Jap sprang to his feet and
took the big mans arm over his shoulder,
but could do nothing. In letting go. while
standing back to DAILY, the latter took a
choke lock and forced the Jap to his shout
ders. Time, ten minutes. After the match
there was considerable talk about another
match. The Jap was dissatisfied with the
result, and offered to win straight catch
