CRIMSON FAVORED TO PLACE WELL IN WRESTLING TOURNEY

The other colleges which the Crimson matmen will encounter in this meet are Brown, Dartmouth, Tufts, M. I. T., and Springfield Y. M. C. A. College. The University team has already defeated Springfield, Tufts, and Brown, and Springfield easily downed the Hanover grapplers, so that the University wrestlers are favored strongly to show up well for the New England championships.

Of the men who will make the trip, Captain B. B. Corson, Occ., is picked as a likely winner in the 125-lb. class. He already has three falls and one decision to his credit. C. P. Smith '21 in the 135-lb. class is another of the University's strongest wrestlers, with one fall and two decisions on record this season. T. L.

M. Kinney '20 the new heavyweight, to take the place of J. F. Brown '22, has also a good record on the University squad, while C. V. Smith '22, the 145-lb. man, has likewise shown up well this season.
