Collins took two straight falls from
Max Miller, the first in SO minutes
with a reverse half Nelson and crotch

with a half Nelson and crotch hold. 1t
seems that this hold was the only one
Miller could not break when applied
by the Wild man.
After the match Collins reiterated
His standing offer to meet any 100
man in the country for $500. Miller
expressed his desire to come back and
wrestIe Collins again. Manager Viii

wanting to come here and wrestle, but
he declared he could net say when the
