The first meet of the season for the University wrestling team will be staged this afternoon at Hemenway Gymnasium, when Coach Anderson's men will oppose the Tufts grapplers at 4 o'clock.

Trials for the team which will meet Tufts this afternoon were held Monday and Tuesday, and resulted in the selection of the following eight men: J. F. Brown '22, heavy-weight; T. L. Parsonnet '22, 175-pound; J. A. MacDonell '21, 158-pound; W. Fuller Occ., or G. V. Smith '22, 145-pound; C. P. Smith '21, 135-pound; B. B. Corson '21, 125-pound; and R. W. Powers '21, 115-pound class.

Trials for the regular team which will represent the University for the remainder of the season will be held next Monday afternoon. After these tryouts, it is expected that Captain MacDonell will wrestle in the 145-pound class, Parsonnet in the 158-pound class, and a new man for the 175-pound class. Both of the men mentioned are today wrestling in a class above their weights.
