Portland all-stars
in wrestling meet
As part of a cultural exchange
program, the all-star Japanese
wrestling team visited Portland,
taking on the PIL all-star wres
tlers Saturday night, and win
ning all eight matches.
The program was started iri
1963 and is the only sport of
fered in Portland high schools
which individuals meet each
other from different countries in
sports competition.
Mr. Katoh was the head coach
of the all-star team and stayed
at the home of Mr. Thomas Niel
sen. He was appointed for his
position and is not paid. Mr. Ka
toh felt that his wrestlers were
slower than when they first ar
rived in the U.S. when, accord
ing to Mr. Nilsen “they were
very fast.”
Grapplers suffer two losses
at hands of Madison, Marshall
Varsity grapplers suffered
their second setback in one week
as they were defeated by Madi
son 27-20 and by Marshall 28-
23, losing chances for the Green
Division title and for third place
in the PIL.
According to Coach Shew
bert, the meet for the division
title could have gone either way.
Madison showed real strong
wrestlers in the upper weights
and these proved to be decisive.
Tom Crewsell was the lone
Grant wrestler to pin his oppo
nent. Tom wrestles in the heavy
weight division and he pinned
his man in the first round.
Madison went on to take sec
ond place in the PIL for dual
meets. They were beaten by
Bill Curry, Frank Quintano,
Merle and Craig Johnson, Ricky
Durland, Dave Gray, Craig Su-
chy, Larry Yakymik, Coach Rob-
bert Shewbert and Coach Thom
as Nielsen acted as host families
for the visitors.
Coach Nielsen felt that Dave
Gray and Bill Curry were the
best wrestlers from Portland,
and Kikuo Wada the best wres
tler from Japan.
It was noted that, like Ameri
can boys the Japanese were very
interested in girl watching. Dur
ing the match when the coach
wasn’t looking, wrestlers would
take pictures of the rally girls.

Last Friday was the match
with Marshall and accompany
ing the team to Marshall was the
visiting Japanese National wres
tling team. The Generals got off
to a slow start as Marshall took
the first two matches. Gene
Kerns pinned his 123 lb. oppo
nent and Rick Durland pinned
his man at 130 lbs. These were
the only two wrestlers to get
pins against Marshall.
Winning by decisions were
Dave Gray at 141 lbs. by a score
of 13-11, Mike Reinecker at 148
lbs. by 13-0, and Larry Yakymi

by Jan Kelley
Sportsmanship, as defined by
Webster, is “conduct becoming
to a sportsman, involving honest
rivalry and graceful acceptance
of results.”
Although it is past, our en
counter with the Madison Sena
tors in basketball two weeks ago
will long be remembered as a
close and great contest marred
by the rudeness of Madison.
The most popular yell coming
from the Senators seemed to be:
Give ’em a “B”, give ’em an “O”,
give ’em another “O” and what
have you got??? Poor sports
manship!!!
The Generals in attendance, at
first mystified by the babyish
behavior, finally chorused in in
retaliation.
The best retaliation we could
offer such behavior would be to
laugh in the Senators’ faces, for
it is such a childish act that only
children would think of doing it.
And what a boot! English styling and quality
is evident in every classic detail. It's great for
every occasion, and it'll deliver on the long
wear, too, no matter how tough a pace you set.
Ask for the 'George’ boot.
