Ten victories, while Thacker, also un- defeated for two years, will seek to keep his record unblemished. Another close battle is predicted when, Solomon, Wolverine 125 pound- er, meets Soga or Hesmer of the Sucker team. The Michigan star suf- fered his only defeat at the hands of Snyder, Ohio captain last season who held the Conference title, while Soga, a Jap, 'defeated the Buckeye. Hesmer worked in the Iowa meet last week and showed real ability in defeating Weir, Conference 115 pound title holder last year. Watson, Michigan's high point win- ner for the year, is slightly favored over Minot of the Illini in the light- weight bout. The Wolverine has scor- ed 29 points in seven bouts this year by winning four falls and three de- cisions. Minot has been steadily im- proving in recent meets and is con- sidered one of the leading 135 pound- ers in the Big Ten. Michigan should captuire the 145 pound bout as Gunlock, regular Sucker welterweight, has been off form in recent bouts. The Illini 145 pounder has difficulty in making weight as he normally weighs 165 pounds. In case Coach Prehn decides not to use him, Vondenbosch, Green, or Furness, will be sent against Sauer, Michigan ace who has won all of his Conference bouts this year. The 158 pound bout promises to i be another feature affair with Captain Donahoe, Conference title holder who has been defeated only once in his two years of.Big Ten wrestling, meet- ing Geis, 1926 captain of the Illini. Geis was defeated for the first time (Continued on Page Seven) Swise , adept both at forward and guard.
