The University Wrestling Championships in the seven regular classes, which were held in the Living Room of the Union last night, included some of the most spectacular and hotly contested bouts of the year. Altogether, three falls were registered. In the 125-lb. class G. K. Crockett 1G.B. secured a fall over L. H. Bevier '17 in 2 minutes and 4 seconds, while, in the 158-lb. class, A. K. Kelley 2L. threw H. G. Killam '18 in 5 minutes and 10 seconds. In the heavy-weight division W. B. Snow, Jr., '18 won his match with E. H. Noble '19, which proved to be one of the fastest bouts of the evening.
On the whole, the best performance of the evening was the bout in which L. R. Barker 1L. met S. Burnham '19 in the 175-lb. class. Fast, clever recoveries on the part of Burnham, which the latter turned to good account, and a powerful offensive attack by his opponent, characterized the struggle. Holds were rarely kept for any length of time, and great speed was shown by both contestants.
When the contests were over, Manager P. Bradley '16 awarded a handsome silver cup to the winner in each event.
The following is the summary: 115-lb. class, won by H. Ettlinger '18 over J. D. Schwartz '18. Decision. Time: extra 3-min. period. 125-lb. class, won by G. K. Crockett 1G.B. over L. H. Bevier '17.
