 TuSSIeS

New York, Feb. 10-Stanilaus Zbyszko, the Ponderous Pole, who looks like hunk from out the side of a mountain and George Hackenschmidt the Russian Lion, who has a build that would make Hercules take to the tall timbers, wrestled fall-less match in Madison Square Garden last night before a crowd that packed the building from roof to cellar. Under the conditions, Zbyszko won, for it was a handicap affair. with Hacken- schmidt agreeing to throw Zbyszko twice within ninety minutes.
 Though several times Hackenschmidt got the Pole in dangerous holds, Zbyszko always managed to work out. AS the bont wore on it was Zbyszko who took the aggressive. but the huge foreigner found it difficult task to twist the Russian Lion over on his back. To those who saw Hacken- schmidt toss Tom Jenukins on his back in Madison Square Garden two years ago, 1t appeared as if Hackenschmidt is not the same man as he was then.
 Though he has the same massive frame, the bulging biceps and the mounds of muscle that writhe and rip pie like live things under the white sheath, the Russians hair has thin ned and his face shows that age is creeping on him. Hackenschmidt is getting bald. He lacked his usual ag- gressiveness, and did not hurl the giant Zbyszl,o about the mat, as is his habit with most of his adversaries.
 Perhaps it was the huge bulk of the Pole that kept Hackenschmidt from carrying his usual battle. Zbyszko truly Is mountain of a man, with shoulders as wide as a barn door and biceps as thick as the trunk of a tree. He is so girthy of chest that many of the ordinary holds cannot be used upon him. Hackenschmidt's arms scarcely were long enough to encircle the Pole.
 Though himself weighing 210 pounds Hackenschmidt gave away more than fifty pounds to Zbyszko. The Pole tried to make his weight tell, hurling his huge body on Hackenschmidt re- peatedly when he had Hackenschmidt on the mat. Zbyszko also roughed it considerably after he found Hacken- schmidt too strong and agile for him to threw. Once the Pole jerked Hack enschmidt to him, their heads meeting over the building.
 Several times Hackenschmidt gained a half Nelson on the Pole, but lost when Zbyszko spun out or wrenched loose by sheer brute strength. Once the Russian Lion got an arm bar and crotch hold and it surely looked as if he would pin the Poles shoulders to the mat Zbyszko, however, squirm- ed out. Another time Hackenschmidt got half Nelson and arm bar and it looked as if he scored arolling fall, but Referee Tim Hurst did not bat an eyelash. At that point wag in the gallery cried: What has he got to do Tim? Nail him to the floor?" Zbyszko. knowing that Hacken- schmidt did not like the toe hold. made famous by Frank Gotch. repeatedly tried to work that hold. Hacken- schmidt always kicked out, however, Zbyszko's trump hold was a simple head clutch. He repeatedly curled his huge right arm around Hacken- schmidts head or neck Whenever he did so George had to do some lively squirming to work free.
 New York Feb. 10-Wrestling Cham pion Frank Gotch, need have no fear of return match with George Hack enschmidt, the Russian Lion, in the opinion of the 1000 persons who watched Hack try in vain for ninety minutes, last night, to pin Zbyszko's s shoulders to the mat. Hackenschmidt was go lacking in aggressiveness that the spectators could not see where he would have chance to regain the title that he lost to Gotch by tackling the Iowan's game.
