The University wrestling team will face strong opposition this afternoon when they meet the Princeton mat-men at Princeton at 2 o'clock. The Orange wrestlers had had a fairly successful season till they bowed before the M. I. T. mat-men on February 25. Captain Morrison of the Tiger team is a wrestler of exceptional ability and in the Technology meet he distinguished himself by gaining a decision over Butler, the M. I. T. captain who has twice held the New England championship in the 145-pound class. Cutis Nolson '24 will face him in the feature bout and it should prove to be a close match as Nelson barely succumbed to Butler when the University wrestlers met Technology.
The Crimson team is still handicapped by the loss of Captain H. B. Walker '22 who has been out with an injury. His place will be filled by A. W. Lewin '24 who had had no experience until he was recently called into play to fill the gap.
Last year the University mat-men defeated the Princeton team by the close score of 16 to 14, and with Morrison still on the mat another stiff contest should be in store for the Crimson this year. The line-ups follow:
Harvard.--115-pound class, A. W. Lewin '24; 125-pound class, H. G. Freedman '23; 135-pound class, G. P. Crawford '24; 145-pound class, Curtis Nelson '24; 158-pound class, G. F. D'Wolf '24; 175-pound class, C. L. Abernathy '22; unlimited class, Benoni Lockwood.
Princeton.--115-pound class, Sherman; 125-pound class, Moreland; 135-pound class, Webster; 145-pound class, Morrison; 158-pound class, Robinson; 175-pound class, Wilson; unlimited class, Kinsley.
