Crimson captain Joe Noble, with a 9-1 season record, should rack up another victory at 157 against Yale's Alec Slaughter. Elsewhere, the picture is not so clear, except that Fitch appears to have a distinct edge over the varsity's Dave Skeels at 123. Sherrill, although considered a top Eastern heavyweight, may have some trouble with Ted Robbins, who has won six of his nine matches...
