Aberg and LewiS Are
Survivors OF Wrestling
Carried Off Leading Homo rs in International Matches
At New York-Zbyszko Is Next in Line
Tourney Lasted Three Weeks

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-The feature OF
the most remarkable wrestling tourna-
ment that ever took place in America.
lasting three months and being favored
with large and enthusiastic patronage,
was the overwhelming superiority OF
Alexander Aberg. the giant Esthonian.
over all the aspirants for hOnors Of
that style of graphing. The compeu-
tors included the best foreign wrestlers
in the game, yet all were like putty
in the clutches OF the big champion.
Several of those who pitted their
strength and skill against that of
Aberg were severely injured by the
champion in his efforts TO pin them
to the mat. Zbyszko has not yet re-
covered from the effects OF his last
tussle with Aberg, and 1t was the
punishment that the champion inflicted
on Mort Henderson. the Masked Marvel,
that took all the steam out of
that grappler and made him a COM
paratively easy mark for Stecher in
the Garden contest.
AS a matter of fact, ZbysZko was
the only man in the tournament that
could give the champion any kind OF
battle, and he was so roughly han
died that he was put out of the going.
There is no doubt that the giant Pole
wuS next In eHlclency 10 the cnaH-
pion, though Anton 1rsa, had he not
suffered a severe injury early in the
tournament, might have made II in
teresting for the PolHnder.
Therefore, as Graeco- Roman tour
nament, the result was never in doubt,
| for the great Aberg outclassed all his
i opponents so far in strength. combative-
! ness and endurance that there was no
4 question as to the outcome.
