ond in 5 minutes, 80 seconds. The
first fall was secured by an arm and
toe hold and the second with a head
and arm hold.
.Gotch appeared much stronger thar
the Russian and he was the aggressor
throughout the match. Zurich SEEM
ed unabl to get a good hold on Gotten
and the half dozen times that he was
on top he was unable to move the
Iowa giant, who squirmed away APP
parently at will. On the other hand,
Gotch continually was securing half
Nelson, head and arm, leg or toe holds
on Zurich who was eldom ever able
to spring to his feet when he broke
a hold! Usually Gotch released one
hold only to grasp another equally
serious for his opponent
The fatal twist of Gotch's toe hold
did much to undermine the confidence
of the Russian which was none too
great at the outset of the match.
Before the men had wrestled two
minutes, Gotch's superior strength
was shown, when after securing an
arm and body hold he picked up Lur-
ich in his arms and slammed him to
the mat with great force. During the
early part of the contest, the Russian
was quite shifty, however, and sever
al times broke the champions toe
holds quite cleverly. But ten minutes
before he s~uccumbed to the first fall
it was evident that Gotch was merely
playing with him.
