Katonen-Wagner
Match Attracts
Fight Interest
After last week's surprise cli
max, the Paavo Katonen-George
Wagner main event in the ar
mory this Friday night is attract
ing a great deal of interest and
conjecture among the local fight
fans.
Perhaps the most reliable bar
ometer of bout-interest is the
ticket sale record. Thus far a
goodly sized crowd is expected.
Katonen s initial disadvantage
due to the altitude has now been
overcome, and the two boys will
enter the match on equal physi
cal terms. Katonen will prob
ably be a bit more vicious in his
attack after taking a lesson from
Wagner last week when he lost
by a freak out-of-the-ropes end
ing. Another item in the big Finn's
favor is the fact that if he loses
this match he will be honor
bound to put up his belt at the
next match. He's not going to
do this If he can get out of it.

rebellion brewing within the

balance of power is too unevenly
distributed with the faculty men

A survey at the conference

In the conference . They have
the last, as well as the first, say
. . . There is no appeal from their
decisions, virtually, unless some
one chooses to take a case to the
president of a university and he
in turn lines up all of the other
prexies, a possibUity too far
fetched to consider . . .
In the past year or so there
has been a tendency on the part
of the faculty men to take the
others more "Into their confi
dence, tocthe point the graduate
managers have been permitted to
sit in a Joint session with the
former ... The coaches, how
ever, and we refer to the foot
ball phase of the conference, still
are very much out in the cold . . .
They make recommendations,
then sit back and await re
sults ; . . "
The ideal set-up, our inform
ant points out, would be joint
sessions with the managers, ath
letic directors and coaches meet

voices of every branch could be
