On Grid Squad

MoRGANTowN, Aug. s.-when
wrestling was inaugurated as an
intercollegiate sport at West yir-
GINA last winter those who think Of
football first when they think Of
intercollegiate athletics at all,
were not hesitant to say that the
new addition to the Mountaineer
sport curriculum would aid football
directly and Immediately by deyel-
oping not only the men who already
played football to a far greater ex-
tent but would actually bring out a
lot of men for football who had
never played.
