B. A. (. Mat Men Win
 City Tournament
 Staged Last Night

The E. A. c. wrestling team won the city wrestling championship in the meet staged at the local club last night in some exceptionally fast and scientific matches. The B. A. c. totaled 27 points, winning three first places, four seconds and a like number on third positions. The Central Y. M. C. A. came second with two firsts, duo of seconds and one third for total of 15 tallies. The Phoenician club got one first, one sec ond and one third for eight points, while the Boys club got one first and two thirds for a total of seven counters. As seen from the above statement, all the teams entered won a first place This shows the comparative strength of the outfits. The silver and bronze medals which will be awarded the first and second place winners by the B. A. C. have not arrived, but they will be given out as soon as they come in.
 The headlock seems to rule a heavy favorite in the respect of the local mat men, six of the falls last night having been brought about by "Strangler" Lewis pet. Eleven of the matches staged last night ended in falls, which slows how fast the wrestlers worked All of the bouts were interesting and exciting, with the battle usually close all the way.
 Payne Love of the Y. M. C. A. ap- peared to be the best man for his weight in the meet. He easily won in short order his two matches. "Bogie" Saab. the Bows club sole medal getter, won his match with Smith in the shortest time for the night getting fall in one minute flat, with headlock furnishing the means for downing his opponent One of the best matches of the evening was the one between Lacey and Smiles, in which the former won the decision after 15 minutes work. Lacey showed some good wrestling. but Smiles was too rugged for him to put his shoulders to the canvas The bout between Martin and Brinskelle, which Martin won with a body scissors and armlock, was very good one, with both men fighting all the time.
 Polly" scokel made very good im- pression, although he did not win a. medal He has splendid body, but does not know much about the game War Horse, Candy was easily the best of the heavies, although Perry of the "Y' showed promise. He has a good body as a foundation, but is not very well versed in the game, The meet taken altogether. was a success, al though the attendance was not up to expectations.
