T h e F rosh were successful
only in w inning two of th e m atches and those cam e
by th e decision route.
Jo h n H anson, A lex P etellin, E arl D onnelly and
H erschel Crim all proved m asters of th e ir opponents
rig h t off the reel and had little difficulty in p in n in g
th eir o p p o n en ts’ shoulders to the carpet. By keeping
th eir men on the defense from th e sta rt and clam ping
never-failing holds on them they m ade sh o rt w ork of
th e ir job, p in n in g their m en to the m at in from tw o
to five m inute periods.
T h o u g h T itu s Sam uels and G uy S cott were not
as successful as th eir team m ates, they proved too m uch
for th e ir opponents to handle. E ach of th e two w res­
tled to a draw in the first bout and won the second by
a fall. Only the referee’s decision gave the th ird bout
to the F rosh for having a slight edge on aggressiveness.
T h e condition of our bone-crushers show ed th a t they
have w orked-out reg u la rly and have trained faithfully.
