CHAMPION MIXED WRESTLER OF THE WORLD
The PIucky Little Michigan Ath.

His Title Against Any
Man at l40 Pounds.

Bobby" Reakes has again ably de
Tended his claim to the weller weight
championship of the world as mixed
wrestler, and his victory over Harry
Parker, of Worcester, Mass, gives him
clear title, although he stands ready TO
meet any living man at l40 pounds. In
his wrestle with Parker he clearly show
ed himself to be master of the art, and
although Parker is several pounds heav-
Ter, his weight the night of the wrestle
being l45 pounds, just one.fourth of
pound above the conditions OF the match
yet at no time did he get the advantage
of Reakes.
The wrestle was not what would be
called a nice exhibition of the art, as 1t
was Parker's desire not to bar any holds
and IL was clear 70 see which could
throw the other, using any means pos
slble Reakes was still suffering con-
siderably from the injury he received TO
his right arm at Grand Rapids, and had
Parker known his condition and taken
advantage OF it, the result would un-
doubtedly have been different, although
Reakes was very careful not TO let his
antagonist secure hold on that arm.
The first fall was secured after %
minutes of hard work, when Reakes Sc
cured the hammer lock ard half Nelson
hold on Parker and quickly turned
his shoulders to the mat, crying for
Reakes not to break his arm, but not be-
fore he sustained a severe wrench to the
member.
The collar and elbow style of wrest-
ling was used for the next fall, and it
took only five minutes of work for
Reakes TO flop his man.

the match. and gave good satisfaction.
