FOUR STRONG WRESTLING TEAMS TO COME TO GRIPS

UNIVERSITY TEAMS DEFEATED M. I. T. BY LARGE SCORES

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The big climax of the wrestling season will come at 7.30 o'clock Saturday evening at Hemenway Gymnaslum when the University and Freshmen teams will face the Yale matmen in a double-header, and two of the four successful seasons enjoyed by the teams so far will be fruined. Neither Freshman team has been defeated yet, and the University squads have each lost only one meet.

Revenge for last year's 20 to 3 defeat at the hands of the Elis is what the Crimson wrestlers will be fighting for, and the odds stand about one to one that they will get it. Since dropping the first meet of the season to Columbia by the margin of a single decision, the team has had a remarkable record, losing only two decisions in the 27 matches of the last four meets.

Both Trimmed M. I. T.

The only opponent met by both Harvard and Yale was M. I. T., defeated by the Crimson 22-3 and by the Blue 26-3. Yale has lost only to Lehigh, 11 to 16.

The Elis will present an experienced line-up Saturday evening, especially in the heavier classes. Bradford will have a hard time against Batty, the 240-pound Yale heavyweight, who secured the only fall won by the Elis in last year's meet.

Captain Karelitz, who has never been thrown in three years of intercollegiate wrestling will be one of the Crimson's chief hopes. With four falls and two decisions to his credit, he has been the highest scorer on the team this season. Hayne, Goldberg, and Michelson are the other undefeated members of the squad, though only one of them, Goldberg, has wrestled in all six meets. Stearns lost a fall to Columbia in the 135-pound class, but has since scored two falls and three decisions in a lower class, while Hill and Bradford have broken even. Hill won a fall from a Brooklyn Polytechnic opponent and lost a decision last week to Brown; Bradford has won two decisions and lost two.
