SOMEBODY WON TITLE
AT w. & l.. CARNIVAL

LEXINGTON, Va, March 21-One
of the Cotton brothers is bantam
weight wrestling champion of Wash
ington and Lee university, as a result
of his victory at the annual heavy
gymnasium meet here, but neither the
referee nor the student body knows
on which one to place the laurel wreath
of victory.
Henry Gotten and Nicholas Gotten
are twins, weighing 119 pounds each,
and looking more alike than two peas.
Since they entered the freshman class
at Washington and Lee last Septem-
Der from Memphis. Tenn, their sepa-
rate identification has been a continual
puzzle 70 their professors and fellow
students. Both Henry and Nicholas
are good wrestlers, and this winter
each grappled his way to the final
round in the bantamweight tryouts.
Then last night, clad In standard w.
and l.. wrestling uniform, Gotten and
Gotten FLASHED in the final bout There
is little doubt that somebody won the
match, but for the life of him the ref
cree couldn't tell whether Henry was
on top most OF the time or whether 1t
was Nicholas. So he simply an
nounced that the bantamweight cham
pionship was won by Mr.. Gotten"
and the applause OF the spectators
testified that there was glory enough
for either-or both.
