Varsity Drops Match To Quaker Wrestlers

With a large portion of the squad simultaneously having an off-day, the varsity wrestling team dropped its second Ivy League meet Saturday, 14 to 11, to an improved Penn squad.

Captain Joe Noble, at 157, took his first loss of the season by a 3-2 decision. Of the three other previously unbeaten Crimson wrestlers, two were defeated.

Carl Kludt, at 130, and Rick Sullivan, at 177, lost by decisions after one and two victories, respectively. Meanwhile, 147-pounder King Holmes, making his first start, joined Foster in the undefeated ranks with a clear-cut win. Other Crimson winners were Dave Skeels, in the opening 123-lb. match, and heavyweight Ted Robbins.

In the day's most exciting match, John Watkins, at 137, was tied, 6-6, as Penn's Black scored in the final 15 seconds.
