R. G. Ames '34, and Captain P. O. Johnson '33 are to be Harvard's representatives in the National Collegiate Athletic Association wrestling championship tournament opening tonight at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. A number of undefeated grapplers and several candidates for last year's Olympic team are among the 31 matmen who have already registered. Bouts will be held today and tomorrow, with evening matches scheduled for both days.
Johnson is the 145-pound New England intercollegiate champion, while Ames, who did not enter the title meets recently held at Cambridge, has not been defeated during his undergraduate career. Johnson has been thrown officially but once, at the hands of Loughlin, of the Navy last year.
Lehigh, one of two teams to defeat Harvard this winter, has retained its Eastern intercollegiate wrestling title, and is entering a full team. Brown, Cornell, Navy, Princeton, Yale, and leading institutions in the south and west are also sending representatives.
