There Is a difference of almost a foot between their height, while Sharkey weighs more than twice as much as Higashi. Aa 4hey came to&clher ihe'Jap anese smiled confidently as Sharks reached down and started catch-as-catch- can tactics. He was allowed to get a hold which to the spectators looked bad for the little fellow. Every one expected to see the big sailor fall on his opponent and crusn mm. with one of his quick turns, Higashi raised Sharker from tha flonr held him in the air and the next moment planted him on his back on the floor.
