ka wm compete In the western inter
collegiate wrestling tournament at the
University of Illinois, April -iu. Ne
gotiations are In progress for a 'dual
meet with a Southern school. If this
can be arranged It will bo held in the
last of March.
The wrestling team this year is com
.jfovpnil experienced men. Cap-
pu&eu u
tain Harry P. Troendly is as clover as
anv one in the country. As a Univer
sity wrestler he Is In a class by him
self. I" tne (Ulal meet wltl1 Anies
last year he was the only man to win
this event. He threw his man in the
125-pound clasB and then entered the
145 pound class event which he lost by
a decision. At the state amateur un
ion athletic meet at Omaha last year
he won high honors.
This is Troendly's second year with
the team.
Salter in the 135-pound class has
had experience with last year's team.
Long, a 145-pound class man, was on
the wrestling team of two years ago.
Hoyt, who is in the heavywelpht class
this year, wrestled in the 175-pound
class last year. A. E. Sandstedt and
M. R. Smith, of the 158-pound class,
are new men this year as is PIckwell.
Two good men were lost to the team
this year. Wertz, 145-pound class man,
has been kept out of the game because
nf sickness. Perry, in the 175-pound
class, has left school.
Next year an attempt will be made
to push wrestling. A schedule call
ing for five dual meets and including
the western intercollegiate tournament
will probably be arranged. There is
no reason why Nebraska should not
how as much Interest In her wrest
ling team as Ames, Indiana, Chicago,
and Minnesota do. Ames turned out a
crowd of two thousand to see the dual
meet with Minnesota. There is no
reason why Nebraska should not sup
port the wrestling team as well as she
loes the football and basketball teams.
