Jess Westergaard (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

Wystan said:
In the news in January, 1913: Jess Westergaard (also known as Jess Reimer) defeated Henry Ordemann in Minneapolis on January 7, 1913, and claimed the world's heavyweight wrestling title. A week later, he announced that he would become a boxer and defeat Jack Johnson for the heavyweight championship in that sport. (But of course, he never did.)
Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
Wystan: Thanks for the additional information on Mr. Westergaard. We will add to the record when we update.
