Yeles in the Montpelier armory hall
Thursday evening as advertised. In a
recent conversation with Bernard Penn
broke Of Montpelier, the wrestler Of
this article learned that Pembroke had
wrestled Borella, the challenger from
ST. Adams, and up to midnight Of Feb.
II. one hour and five inmate draw.
Though Pembroke is very good
wrestler, he il no well matched oppo'
nent for Shimkus, as anyone who saw
them wrestIe in Montpelier two weeks
or SO ago will aec that is. those who
have seen Shimkus wrestle in other
matches and who agreed he was not ex-
erting himself much on Pembroke.
Borella. therefore, is either no match
/ for Shimkus or else is a good exhibition
wrestler for New Hampshire people,
who witnessed the close and undecided
hour and fve.miuute draw during the
earlier part Of this season.
