Brattleboro Man Loses After Putting
Up Game Contest-Cyclone Burns
Defeated by Joe Stecker.

Cyclone Burns, well known in Brat
tleboro as fast, hard, skilled wrestler,
was defeated in Boston last evening by
Joe Stecker, the young western mat
artist. and the defeat was in two
straight falls. More important than
that was the fact that Burns could not
stand off defeat - minutes He lost
the first fall in 10 minutes and 81 sec
onds and the second in four minutes
and % seconds. Both were gained by
the scissors.
Of the semi-fnal match. "Doc :"
Amy, the Boston Post sporting writer,
saws:
For real battling, the semi-fnal
match of the evening between Peter
GouIette of Woonsocket and Eddie Be-
lin of Brattleboro, Vt, was the fea-
ture of the tournament. Closely match
ed in size and weight, with Bolin the
possessOr of the greater strength, and
Goulette the greater experience and
cunning, this pair put up the contest of
their lives. The fact that it went to
three falls, the unusual in tournament
shows, speaks volumes for the quality
and quantity of the battling, while as
for the spectators it was one roar of
enthusiasm the whole way.
Bolin won the first fall with an in
side crotch and wrist lock in 22m. SOS,
but the second went to the Woonsocket
Frenchman in 12m. 3Js. with a body
scissors and front crotch. The final
round saw Goulette putting up a fight
ing, aggressive battle such as was never
known before, with Bolin working on
the defensive, the house meanwhile
roaring its applause in torrents. After
they had struggled for about Is min
utes Peter cot a leg hold scrambled
to his feet and whirling around and
around gave Bolin a razzle-dazzle that
was something fierce. The whirlwind
over, Peter crashed his man to the
mat, put on a head chancery and won
the fall and bout in the time Of 13m.
sos
Curiously enough, both victor and
vanquished were so dizzy from the raz-
zle-dazzle they had to be dragged to
their feet and supported to their cor
ners, otherwise they might have
pitched over the ropes.
