Wrestlers To Take On YMCA Here Tonight
|

Endeavoring to reach heights of last year's wrestling squad, coach Gene Grattan's matmen will meet their first
hurdle in the form of the YMCA of San Francisco tonight at 8:00 in the Spartan arena.
The club usually presents one of the cleverest and most experienced teams on the Pacific Coast and this year boasts
of more evenly distributed strength than last when they proved to be a match for the championship California Bears.
Sam Della Maggiore who was thrown by John Jones in the all-college tournament has returned to form and had little
trouble in winning over Jones in the tryouts Wednesday night.
Under coach Grattan's system, each week before a meet, any man may challenge the title holder for the right to
represent the team in that meet. Henry Puckett at 118 pounds and Jack Fiebig (125), will defend the lighter weight
divisions and are placed as favorites against the dark horses from the club team.
Radio has robbed the team of its fastest improving wrestler, Carleton Lindgren, who as one of the three wrestling
members of the Four Musketeers, is journeying to Los Angeles to sing over the California Hour.
135-pound Martin Olavarri will more than represent his weight and can be counted on to do his share toward point
total to the Spartan side of the ledger. Husky George Weinglein (155) and Melvin Rush (165) are scheduled to meet
the YMCA at their weights.
Ralph Kelley has again bowed to Frank McGuire who has proved his present superiority of the 175-pound class and
in learning a few more holds, bids fair to uphold his division. With Sam Della Maggiore at par, the outlook not
only for tonight but for the season is bright. |
