After making up the backbone of Harvard wrestling teams for the last four years, DAN RAY (above) and DON LOURIA (below) have put Coach Butch Jordan on the spot as a result of their mid-season graduation. Jordan must now find adequate replacement at 155 and 165 if the Crimson is to continue in its undefeated ways. A renovated grappling outfit will get its first test Saturday when Army visits the Blockhouse, and the performances of the two men may determine the success the team enjoys for the rest of the season.
Jordan's first Harvard wrestling team started its season with easy victories over MIT and Wesleyan, reaching its peak just before the exam period break against Columbia. After Army come Dartmouth, Brown, Princeton, and Yale.
Except for the spots vacated by Ray and Louria, Jordan's lineup is fairly constant. This means Dave Coombs at 121, Dave Smith at 128, Roger Wach at 136, Bob Claflin at 175, and Howie Houston, unlimited. The 145-pound slot is also somewhat doubtful.
