Wrestlers Vie With Stanford Here |
||
| After a preliminary workout with the San Jose High School grapplers Monday afternoon, the 1936 version of the Spartan
wrestling team will make its initial appearance this afternoon at 5:00 in the small gym against the Stanford Indians
from Palo Alto. As yet untried against collegiate competition, coach Gene Grattan's proteges will go into the affair determined to make a good showing. Outstanding on this year's squad are two returning veterans Melvin Rush (165) and George Wenglein (155). Both are slated to match their strength against foes this afternoon. Of the newcomers, Ivan Nelson (165) and Frank McGuire (175) show particular promise. Others who will probably see action are Henry Puckett (118), Louis Enos (155), Carlton Lindgren (145), Russell Owens (145), and Harold Wise (135). If the San Jose outfit is an unknown quantity, but Stanford's team is even more so. Presenting a real squad for the first time in many years, they will undoubtedly be out to make a name for themselves. This match will be the second of a series to put the Spartan team in top notch condition of the intercollegiate season which opens officially next January. Working out against the San Jose High School team, coach Grattan found several faults and gained valuable experience. Friday night the Spartans will journey to San Francisco to take on the strong YMCA team there. |
