 Matmen Ready For Weekend PCI Tourney 

 
     
  While other San Jose College athletic teams are seeing action in far-flung sections of the nation, the Spartan wrestling team will make a strong claim for fame in the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate championships at Pullman, Washington, this weekend.

Led by co-captains Frank Waxham and Lee Jordan, the local grapplers will attempt to dethrone Oregon State, the defending PCI champ.

Waxham, Far Western AAU 157-lb champion, is a luke-warm favorite to win individual honors in his division.

Jordan will see action in the 167-lb division.

Going into the meet with the best record is 177-lb Lou Menghini. He has won his last 16 matches.

In the 123-lb division, Ben Ichikawa will represent SJS. Johnny Jackson will compete in the 137-lb division. Al Cadena is scheduled to battle for the 191-lb title and Jean Snyder is entered in the heavyweight class.
