Lady Wrestlers Tangle In Tokyo In Unladylike Poses

Tokyo, Nov. 25.

Six curvaceous, if muscular, blondes and brunettes from America, Italy, Sweden and Argentina grappled here last Thursday to start a three-day women's professional exhibition wrestling tournament.`

Some 15,000 spectators, conspicuous for the absence of the fair sex and a proponderance of males over 80, packed the Kuramae Kokugikan - a Sumo wrestling joint which hitherto had witnessed only male flesh ripple, sweat, grunt and

groan.

WHY NOT A NEUTRAL DOCTOR TO DECIDE ON SOCCER SUBSTITUTES?

By ARCHIE QUICK

The injury to two Welsh players in the International match against. England at Wembley Stadium, followed as it was by a mishap to Walley Barnes in the first five minutes of Arsenal's game at Highbury against Huddersfield, has once more raised the debated question of substitutes.

True, Ray Daniel and Derek Sullivan did return to continue for Waleg at Wembley, but those in favour of substitutes argue that they might not have done 'so and the game would have been ruined as a spectacle as well as helping England over a style on the way to the Championship.
