CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-The realm
of wrestling was ruled today by Jim
Londos, of Koopodi, Greece.
The 37-year-old Greek proved his
right to the worlds heavyweight
wrestling championship last night
at Wrigley field by throwing Ed
CStrangler) Lewis, Of Beverly Hills,
Calf, who has held the title five
times during his 25-year career, in
a one-fal match.
Londos, weighing 205 pounds,
pinned his bigger rival in 40 min
utes, 81 seconds with a hammer
lock and three-quarters Nelson.
AS a wrestling match it appeared
to be on the level.
AS a spectacle it was terrific
disappointment.
Almost nothing happened, except
the wearisome sight of two giants
Juggling and mauling at each other
before 1925 spectators.
The crowd established new rec
ord for wrestling bout for the first
time in twenty-eight years and the
gross gate receipts of $96,302 hit an
all-time peak.
Once Lewis clamped on two sue
cessive headlocks and appeared to
be furnishing the Greek, but the
third time he tried it Londos caught
him between the legs and pitched
him over the ropes.
Lewis downfall came with dis
patch and precision as Londos ap-
piled a hammerlock and held the
granting, barrel-chested behemoth
at mis- mercy.
Jim McNTillen, Antioch, ILL.,, and
Don George, Boston, wrestled thirty
