WRESTLING TEAM TO BE SELECTED THIS EVENING

Members Will be Chosen According to Results of Trial Souts--Captain to be Elected After Matches are Over

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The University wrestling team will be chosen this evening, following a series of bouts which will be held in the wrestling room of the Hemenway Gymnasium. The matches will start at 8.30 o'clock and a number of good bouts have been arranged by Coach Jedlinski and Manager J. P. Merrill '23 in which the most skillful grapplers in the University will compete. Following these contests, the captain of the University team will be elected. The election was postponed from yesterday in order that any of the new men who make the team may have a chance to win the position which was left vacant when J. F. Brown '22 was forced to resign because of his duties as captain of the University track team. Among those who will be eligible for the captaincy are three veterans who won their letter in wrestling last season or the season before. They are H. J. Friedman '23, J. F. Stearns '22, and H. B. Walker '22. Another likely candidate is Benoni Lockwood '22, who will probably succeed Brown as the heavyweight member of the team. The training table for the University squad will be started on Monday, January 16.

Although the Crimson grapplers face a stiff schedule, the prospects for a successful season are good, and the matches this evening will be keen and spirited as the competition for the team is close in many cases. With the exception of Curtis Nelson '24, Coach Jedlinski has the whole squad in condition for the bouts this evening.
