  Matmen Practice For Double Bill Friday

 
     
  A double-header wrestling meet has been scheduled for Friday, February 16, in San Francisco, announced coach Gene Grattan yesterday. The varsity will meet Oakland YMCA, while the frosh tangle with San Francisco YMCA on the same bill.

Little is known of the Oakland team except that it is composed largely of ex-University of California grapplers. Several of the YMCA men in the lower weights are also on the present California team. Coach Henry Stone of California donates his coaching to the YMCA team. San Jose will meet California here March 6.

San Francisco YMCA will be favored to beat the freshmen in the opener despite the latter's impressive 35-3 victory over San Francisco States. Observers feel that the YMCA team will prove too experienced for the frosh.

Next action for the freshman team will be a return match with the strong Stockton YMCA team tomorrow night. Stockton edged out the Spartans 34-21 in the season's opener.
