Dave Hines Quits Team For Duration

 
     
  Announcing that he plans to save his final year of collegiate eligibility until after the war, Dave Hines, mainstay on the Spartan Wrestling team, declared Wednesday that he will not wrestle under the San Jose State colors this year.

A member of the Army Reserve Corps, Hines expects to be called to active duty before the coming wrestling season gets well under way. If he were to wrestle for State in but one meet this year, he would be barred from further intercollegiate competition.

At the same time, Hines stated that he would enter the Far Western tournament March 6 in Oakland unattached. After the war, Davey plans to return to San Jose State and complete his education. He is working for a degree in physical education.

As a member of Sam Della Maggiore's wrestling team for the past two years, Hines has brought honors to SJS and to himself as twice Pacific Coast titleholder in the 165-pound division.
