After All Europeans to Defeat

There are four requirements OF q
great wrestler who can keep title
for years without having his shoulders
pinned to the padded canvas: Strength,
endurance, speed and skill. Probably
no man In all the annals of wrestling
has had these elements SO mingled
in him in the proper proportions as
Frank Gotch.
have heard men of giant stature
and seemingly unlimited strength as
sert they could do nothing with Gotch
because he was too strong for them.
Others have pronounced the Humboldt
Hercules the fastest big man in the
world. His endurance was given the
supreme test in his first encounter
with George Hackenschmidt. When
the mat gladiators had tugged and
pulled and showed for more than two
hours, and both we're supposed to be
at the end Of their tethers, Gotch
showed a flash of his wonderful speed
and marvellous power Of endurance.
He picked the Russian Lion of the
mat and hurled him to the canvas aa

strength and superior experience,
says Gotch. However, was more

Of wrestling. The wear and tear Of
the battle had its effect on this old
mat gladiator. He had wasted more
energy than I. lnasmuch as I was al
