sen. the young German mat artist
managed to secure two falls over Joe
Turner last night at the local baseball
park and by so doing won the middle
weight wrestling championship of the

Turner won the opening fall after
ten minutes Of wrestling. but the Ger
man came back strong and succeeded in
taking the two deciding ones, The
second fall went to Hansen in thirty
one minutes. with crotch and halt
Nelson. while the final one was secured
in fifteen minutes, with a cradle hold
Apparently Joe Turner Is the best
man. and ii looked as II he could have
easily won from Hansen at almost any
time during the setto. Several times
In the last two rounds he had the Ger
mans shoulders almost to the floor but
the latter managed to get out of them
successfully every time.
Hansen ia one of the fastest and
most aggressive wrestiers seen here In
some time. Turner displayed his usual
science and should have easily won the
match.
