Wrestlers Grapple in Final Matches For University Championship Titles

Harkness and Boston Put On Exhibition Match During Today's Program

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Final bouts for the University wrestling championships will be held in the Indoor Athletic Building this afternoon, when the winners of yesterday's preliminary matches will make their last struggles for the titles.

As a special event in this afternoon's contests, John Harkness, last year's captain and holder of the 1938, 175 pound National Championship, returns for his first public bout since last winter's season, when he faces Chief Boston in an exhibition match.

Wrestling sages prophesy that Boston and Harkness will put on a close, bitter fight. Harkness, undefeated during his last two college seasons, was rated the third best man in the country, while Boston has an unblemished record and won the New England Wrestling Title.

Boston outweighs Harkness by a few pounds. Harkness, who fought in the 175 pound class last year, has gained 20 pounds since his very active season.
