LIGHT-WEIGHT WRESTLING.This was the most interesting contest in the wrestling events. It was well contested, and not so very even as to be wearisome. F. S. Churchill, '86, 138 1-2 lbs., and W.

...faithfully for victory in May and June, ought not to be handicapped by a lack of funds for legitimate expenses. We understand that the freshman class in particular have been especially remiss in subscribing to this important and favorite sport. Some members of the class have even gone so far as to say that they, as freshmen, did not feel called upon to lend their support to university sports. Only let the men of that class consult their friends in the upper classes, and they will soon be told that freshmen usually have done more than any other class...
