which had qualified only one man less

carried the title for the second time. Car

the new 135-pound champion. who won the
| 15S- pound title last spring, was beaten on
decision by Shaw, OF Cornell. after bout
lasting fifteen minutes.
One OF the best bouts OF the night was
in the 125-pound class. between Machet, OF
Cornell, and Gardner, OF Columbia. The
Columbia man put up a game fight! but
Machet was the aggressor for the greater
part Of the time.
Collins. OF Cornell, and Holzworth OF
Columbia, had a smart fight I'm the heavy
weight class, and both tumbed and rolled
around the mat The Ithacan, however.
had the better of 1t, and won on decision.
Bame, OF Cornell. had an easy time in de-
feating Young, Of Pennsylvania in the l75-
pound class.
Cornell had everything its own way in
the afternoon bouts. too, although the CO.
lumbia wrestlers appeared much better
then than they did in the evening. At ths
end Of the afternoons session Cornell had
earned II points Of its final score and Co.
lumbia and Princeton each had points.
Pennsylvania was low score, with only
points. Cornell qualified FIVE of It's candi-
dates, Columbia four Princeton three and
Pennsylvania two.
Holzworth, OF Columbia, and Hendrick-
son, OF Princeton, in the heavyweight C.ass,
had a battle royal and fought each other
like wildcats from the touch OF the referee.
They slammed one another around the mat.
but the Columbia mans superior physical
condition and his fierce aggressiveness soon
gave him an advantage which he was not
slow to follow. In less than five minutes
he had pinned the Princeton wrestler to the
mat with a scissors and head chancery.
The lightweights put on fast and inter-
esting struggles, especially in the feather-
weight class. Boak. Of Cornell, went after
kretcher, of Pennsylvania, In bulldog
fashion and had him on the mat in less
than minute. After that IL was only a
question OF time, for although the Quaker
fought hard he was at a disadvantages
against the Ithacan. Hyman. OF Columbia,
and Fowler, of Princeton, fought on more
even terms, and IT was only in the last
minutes OF the bout that Hymans aggres-
siveness began to wear the Tiger down.
